    My Canaries have the bad habit to walk between my feet and the chair rollers during free flight. I was always extra careful not to move my chair too much - but this week the accident doomed to happen for years happened, and I injured one of them at the foot, luckily no lasting damage (and the dumbass walked around the chair rollers next day already again).

    So the past two days I invented the bird-pushing-away devices, basically four fenders around each chair roller- a large one each in front and behind the chair roller to push birds away and keep them at a distance so no part of their body can be stuck below the chair roller, as it happened, and each one smaller fender per side so they can't sit right next to the rollers anymore (and get their feet stuck there).

    I've been messing around with my Debian 11 VPS on DigitalOcean. Here's what I accomplished this week:

    • I upgraded PHP from 7.4 to 8.2, which is the minimal required version for something I'm going to attempt to install soon,
    • I set up Samba to have easy access to a few server folders from my personal PC,
    • I created a very simple bash script for backing up a few config files (it makes copies with timestamp in the name to the backup folder),
    • I turned off Mouthful default formatting, so I could personalize it for the two websites I'm using it on.

    I also started watching an 18h-long Django course - I'm currrently 1.5h in.

    From non-tech things, I've been playing a lot of Oxygen Not included, did some drawing (I'm trying to finally finish a very old sketchbook), and started watching a let's play of Echo with my sister.
