Can't believe how easy Let's Encrypt turned out to be. Should have done this years ago instead of paying for and manually updating SSL certs every year for all my websites 🤦‍♂️

Today marks the 10th anniversary of the Charlie Hebdo attack, where Islamist gunmen killed 12 people in response to the magazine's controversial cartoons. So, naturally, we should all share the cartoons on X, highlighting the importance of free speech and the right to satire.

Funny after starting web dev in the days of IE6 that I now recommend Microsoft's Edge browser due to their great selection of built in TTS voices.
