I downloaded mine, it lives on the same drive as my WordStar docs, Shockwave apps and Flash projects. I’ve delegated the process of digital decluttering to data rot 😃

MTV is officially ending all of its music channels.

In honor of that, what's your favorite music video?

Great culture can save lives. Literally.

Cat 6a cable with ends split apart

Getting PTSD just looking at this. Making custom cables ranks up there with doing accounts/taxes. Made the first one in 6 months and of course forgot to put the sleeve on before crimping it. 😭

I'm a bit pleased to learn that Cloudflare found SvelteKit to be nearly an order of magnitude faster than Next.js. We've invested in Svelte's speed, but not SvelteKit's, so I suspect there's still much more room for improvement.

here’s my LucasArts tribute loop, which I’ve slowly been adding characters to for some years:

Early Fitbit after overstretched elastic strap stored

Doh! Can’t help myself. I’m getting a new fitness tracker when this one dies so why do I keep fixing it

It lives! Wish I’d taken it apart 8 years ago when the keyboard first stopped working, just unplugging and replugging the trackpad cable was the fix.

Bloated MacBook Pro batteries

Finally fixed the keyboard issue with my old 2015 MacBook Pro (now just a media laptop). Fix was to unplug and then replug the trackpad cable. Now I’ve got a bloated battery to replace 😭

I did give android a try for 3 years, hated every moment. Im still here despite having an app of the week pulled from the store as it was taking off. I think they’re playing a little safe, they’ll never replace Jobs but they need to do something
