When I die, the people dealing with the remnants of my estate will have to deal with tens of thousands of notebooks and journals that are completely empty except for ancillary illustrations of cats.
On the left: stackers handbag, black On the right: frame.work desktop Off-center: a small dx brass banana for scale
Frame.work desktop in the stackers handbag. There is still ample room for knitting and a water bottle.
I’ve made the incredible discovery that the @frame.work desktop can fit into my handbag.
lol I just got momentarily hysterical thinking about the fact that the New York Times got its managing director for communications to confirm on a Saturday that it is standing by its reporting that young women in China have tiny hands and this is why Apple has its factories there
I’ve been working on a hobby forum system for sometime now.
It’s a clone of the old IGNBoards but written in modern PHP.
Supports registering with a discord account which is neat.
just a little hobby project - www.vulpine.meme
I've done a full NOPE, ABSOLUTELY THE FUCK NOT restock, so if you want to express your rage in a fun fidget clicker, I got you in 5 holographic rainbow sparkle colors!

Computers, man.
A helpful Google engineer did verify we Canada’ed too hard in their system somehow and had to file an internal ticket to explain that our ip range was actually Comcast.
It was deeply annoying because all our Google devices (Chromebooks) changed timezones automatically, and we suddenly got locked out of being able to view region-locked content from the U.S.
One time when living in sf, with a Comcast residential IP, me and my partner canada’ed too hard that we somehow convinced Google that our IP should be geolocated to the center of Canada (which happens to be Regina).
the rock is just a text that says “hey! what are u doing”
Steve Shirley escaped the Holocaust as a child & went on to found one of the earliest software startups. The really impressive part? She employed women programmers who had been pushed out of the workforce after having kids, & allowed them flexible, family friendly, work from home jobs—in the 1960s!

The crisis of individualism and identity is exacerbated by the rise of tabulation machines, even more so when storage is involved. And so individuality vs mass classification are inevitably at direct odds.
Screenshot from the videogame Valheim showing a character looking at some thatch-roofed beehives with text saying "the bees are happy." Why isn't this character running and screaming? There are like four beehives right there and Jesus so many bees. SO MANY BEES. Do you remember that scene where Nicholas Cage screams "NOT THE BEES" or whatever and also ninja kicks that old lady? Yeah me too. I just think about Nicholas Cage ninja-kicking grandma from time to time. Its like my happy place.
I need more information
New Normal Men, featuring my friend Lucy who indoctrinates us all as Swifties. Also: @rickywlmsbong.bsky.social learns about sewage, @ed3d.net rejects the concept of swimming, and @proptermalone.bsky.social gives us a report from Washington, DC.
Vanity Fair has a new profile of Waymo CEO Tekedra Mawakana, positioning her as a kind of anti-Elon, and yours truly gets quoted along the way.
Worth a read, if you think all "self-driving cars" are the same, and all leading to the same place (they're not).

I fear these are absolutely delicious. Just the right amount of salt and acid, but also somehow rich? I added some chopped Grillo's and honestly it was gilding the lily. 9/10, one of the best instant ramens I've ever had, will probably buy a bunch more.
She doesn’t need a hero, she is the hero we need. 🤩
I'm failing to remember enough to Google this, but I could swear there were cases where someone mixed corporate data into personal systems (or vice versa), personal data got dragged into legal discovery, and it was embarrassing all around. Does anyone have a pointer?
I waited as long as I could to give air Canada hell then rebooked on another airline.
Fuck Air Canada
Canada has found unity in hating Air Canada! And they said we were divided

A cow in the sea. The cow looks like it’s having an existential crisis while staring at the waves. There’s text on top of the cow that reads “you’re doing great.” In the top right is an enlarged, mirrored, transparent version of the cow. On top of that cow, text reads “good job”
I don’t know who needs to hear this but
