I read an interesting article today Handling Cookies is a Minefield. It’s basically about what characters are supported in cookies across browsers and servers.

As a rule I only use two cookies: a session cookie, which identifies the session, and a persistent browser cookie, which identifies the user and their browser.

In this video I open my recent mail. Stuff that I ordered:

In the video I mention that I made some notes about how to pronounce famous mathematicians’ names, those notes are here: God Created the Integers.

In the video I mention the Arduino Leonardo and the Arduino Micro which I am using for my MIDI-synth project: Crustaceans Chirp Chirp Challenge. Both the Leonardo and the Micro are based on the ATmega32U4 microcontroller which has built-in USB support.

My audio cables are so that I can connect my new gaming rig ‘treat‘ to my Logitech Z607 5.1 Surround Sound Speaker System Bluetooth.

The NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day for 2024 November 15 is what I needed the 3D glasses for. Unfortunately they didn’t work particularly well for me. Oh well, can’t win ’em all.

Also, I figured out how to use my thermometer properly by reading the manual. Go figure. The thermometer supports two modes of operation, forehead and ear. So it works properly if you use it correctly.

I don’t usually send feedback but I stumbled upon an email in my inbox asking for feedback on this purchase so I figured I would tell them what happened.

John's feedback to Amazon for USB cable

lol. And then it turned out they only wanted a review of the product, and not a review of my customer experience. I am now reminded or why I don’t usually send feedback.

Advice that my review was not accepted
