Visiting SW City in Virtual Paradise? Make use of the 150+ (and counting) !j commands that @mkwb.me set up for use. Thanks, GSK!

Unpopular opinion: People shouldn’t use public Discord servers as their own personal blog. I don’t care to know that you went running today or that you were surprised your restaurant meal went up in price.

Although I will admit I’m pretty intrigued by Apple’s long-term strategy now with the A18 #MacBookNeo. I would have expected them to eventually move the iPhone lineup to the M-series chip in the future. Now I’m not so sure.

Reading the specs on the #MacBookNeo and seeing the spec bumped M5 Air, I really think I lucked out getting my M4 Air last year, especially being pre-price hike. The 256 GB storage is pretty bad on mine, but at least I can bump it up with external drives. Not bad since it’s docked 99% of the time.

Loving the surprise #TronAres Divergence album drop today! It’s exactly the more complete soundtrack I wanted. mkwb.micro.blog/2026/02/27/loving-the-su...

R.E.P.O. is the game I love to hate. It’s really fun and very enjoyable for about the first 6-8 levels and then it becomes punishingly difficult, especially for my lil team of three. I’d really like to see some adjustable settings for lobbies, like Among Us and Lockdown Protocol has.

Every few years, I get really into Minecraft and play it obsessively. Looks like 2026 is one of those years; I put 12 hours into it today.

DHS Hunts Down 67-Year-Old U.S. Citizen Who Criticized Them in Email The Department of Homeland Security is using a little-known tool to go after its critics.

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

You know, the different border radii for apps on #MacOS #Tahoe doesn’t bother me as much as I thought it would. Maybe it’s because I’m still stuck in a Windows mindset of having one app maximized 98% of the time.

Just so there’s no doubt as to what side I’m on… FUCK ICE. FUCK TRUMP.

I might not have a big platform, but I think it’s important to share my views on what’s going on just as much as anyone else would.

I really need to reset my sleep schedule. I hate going to bed at 6pm and waking up at 5am.

Three months after I posted about trying to switch my workflow to #Mac, I've managed to complete it, now using Windows for only about 15% of my regular tasks. Mac is just better, especially since Windows is basically bloatware at this point.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

Trying to switch my workflow from Windows to #Mac is harder than I thought it would be. I think part of it is using a Windows keyboard with Mac, but there’s also just a lot of Windows-only apps that don’t have a good alternative (that I’ve found, anyway) on Mac.

Are you Slightly Thrilled? I’ll shoot an email off to YouTube today to retract it. Thank you for reaching out to me.

Yep, lesson learned. Don't provide high quality copies of my artwork on websites anymore because it will inevitably be stolen and someone will inevitably profit from it.

Even though you'd prefer to resort to poorly written insults, I thought you'd like to know that I've already submitted a retraction to remove the copyright infringement claim. I do find it interesting that you created a Bluesky account just to message me about it though.

You're not the only one who used it. You must have a pretty uneventful life if you think my post referred to only yourself. Must be a pretty damn good logo if you used it in the first place though!

That lovely feeling when you find out YouTube channels are using your custom artwork without your knowledge or permission... yeah, sure, I could take it as a compliment that people like my artwork enough to use it, but instead, I decided to just submit copyright infringement reports.

I just used ChatGPT to develop a WordPress plugin that lets people connect their Roblox account to an existing WordPress account. I couldn't find an existing solution and I don't know how to write plugins, but after like nine hours of troubleshooting and refining the prompts, IT FINALLY WORKS.

I GOT THE RARE DISCORD RINGTONE TODAY

Yep, I went back to iOS 18. Maybe I'll try the iOS 26 public beta in July.

I can’t wait until iPhone gets call screening in #iOS26. Maybe companies (and people) will actually use it properly instead of just hanging up. I’m probably expecting too much though.

Yep, I put #iOS26 on my daily driver iPhone. Let’s see how long it takes me to regret this.

Oh, I am so tempted to run #iOS26 on my daily driver iPhone. I'm definitely dropping the beta onto my iPad since I don't use it much anymore, but do I risk it on my iPhone? Let's see what /r/iOSBeta says first. #WWDC25

Looking forward to #WWDC25! First year in a long time that I am fully back in the Apple ecosystem.

Apparently I just passed 1,100 hours in #HITMAN #WorldofAssassination across PS4 and PS5 since January 2021. I guess I really like this game. Maybe I'll stick with it. #Agent47

First trailer for ‘Tron: Ares’

In theaters October 10

PS5's #Dualsense controller has spoiled me. There's so many #PS3 and #PS4 games I'd like to play (or replay) and because there's no #PS5 haptics, I kinda don't want to.
