I know things are hard, but now more than ever it’s important to take the time to flip off every cyber truck you see
are people getting dumber or am i just tired
i invented a new thing called “dirty coffee” where you take a perfectly good cup of coffee and dump cream in it
a week to focus on fiddling with all the settings on my computer would fix me
got my browser tabs down to two digits.
the possibilities are endless this week.
A Taskmaster season where every contestant previously played The Doctor. You’re welcome, Britain.
today i learned that eagles subsist only on fireworks and hot dog buns. that's why america worships them even though they are bald.
my most fun hobby is backing up computer
successfully talked myself out of eating mayonnaise-based salad dressing that sat out on the counter for 24 hours. please clap

standing on the sidewalk with my pressure washer, cleaning the salads of passers-by
anybody like... computers??
they should replace fruity pebbles with cool ranch pebbles
maybe you know iron circus comics? i don't think spike is in here, but they publish all your favorite horny comics.
but they also rely on airtable, which is getting bought out, which inevitably means it's gonna degrade. do you have personal experience with any of the open source or indie airtable replacements out there for small orgs?

(yeah, i stupidly went for the beta because i hated tahoe that much. this is worth it, even with the AI turned off. PS: the window corners are less hideously round and drag and drop is no longer acting like it’s drunk on four loko.) #wwdc
oh no siri has gotten too smart and now i have AI brain damage woooooooo a ghost
i made the mistake of getting on the mac os 26 train last year.
i really need a nuclear weapon so i can force them to get rid of these stupid rounded window corners. or perhaps traditional ballistic missiles would be enough?

you either love and respect the computer or you are a boomer. no in-between.

@beep@follow.ethanmarcotte.com my pleasure! i have been maintaining a sequoia machine for safety, but had to dig in and see if they made anything less spherical. it's somewhat improved.
apple music has indie client apps like daftmusic that have a different interface. is there anything like that for apple notes?
i would do unsavory things for notes to have different background colors.
