I'm starting to wonder if powerful elites are convinced that the Second Coming (Christianity, Islam) or Rapture will occur soon. Like someone discovered or fabricated some evidence. And that all the unbelievable political chaos happening right now is to either trigger it or gain advantage.
Mar 7th, 2026: Several hundred protesters gathered in San Francisco's Embarcadero Plaza during the Stop the War on Iran protest. They were met with several dozen counter-protesters with signs praising Trump and the Regime change. thomashunter.name/photos/2026-...
I saw this characterized version of @garrytan-mirr.selfhosted.social on an anti Y Combinator wheatpaste in SOMA. #sanfrancisco #ycombinator
This $80 memory card I bought two years ago is $130 today.

So uh Ring just up and said they've got a huge centralized private surveillance network they can leverage all at once huh
If you freeze them it slightly reduces the rate of consumption

It's been over 4 years since @multithreadedjs.bsky.social, by @thomashunter.name and myself, was published. A lot has changed in 4 years, and a lot has stayed the same.
What interesting things have you done with threads in JS? LMK. Would love to publish anecdotes (with permission) in 2nd edition.
I use one every day and found that installing Rockbox led to the most compatible outcome. Once plugged in the iPod appears as a regular storage device. Drag and drop music files of any format using any OS.

I've been working on a project to keep track of internal company technical proposals (#RFC, #ADR, #TDD, etc). It formalizes the review and acceptance process to make proposals more like a pull request and less like adding dropdowns in a text document.
Give RFC Hub a try:

I built a webpage that you can use on your mobile phone to turn the screen into an accent light. Click the fullscreen button then drag your finger around to change the color. I use it with my old spare Android phones where I can't install new apps.

// Firefox = true, V8 = false
Intl.supportedValuesOf('timeZone')
.includes('America/Nuuk');
// Firefox = OK, V8 = OK
Intl.DateTimeFormat('ia', {
timeZone: 'America/Nuuk' })
// Firefox = Throws, V8 = Throws
Intl.DateTimeFormat('ia', {
timeZone: 'XXX' })
I might have found a bug in V8 but I'm not sure yet. V8 doesn't list America/Nuuk as being a valid timezone but Firefox does. Both V8 and Firefox accept the timezone as valid.

I tried the brand new #Sony #RX1R III at B&H yesterday. It's a $5,000 fixed-lens camera with a full frame 60MP sensor. Ultimately the photos had less detail than the combo 33MP Sony A7c II + 40mm lens that I had brought with me which is half the price and not much larger.
It seems bonkers to me that Cloudflare, which is able to read the response headers and HTML content from my website, isn't inserting a script nonce field by default.
I just discovered that the @digitalocean.com App Platform hosts my service behind @cloudflare.social because in _certain_ conditions it injects JavaScript into the page which then violates my Content Security Policy.
It's days like these that I'm glad I don't host my projects on AWS.
Me and several other photographers collectively known as Pro Bono Photo took photos during the #SanFrancisco #NoKings 2 march and rally. Here are the photos that we took during the march: www.probonophoto.org/2025/18Oct25...
