am really hoping @evandorkin.bsky.social has heard about this ... dairy products gone bad activation alert! www.kickstarter.com/projects/dee...

where have the ansible docs gone?

the redemption arc of indiana jones 1935: “Fortune and glory, kid” 1936: “These are good pieces, Marcus!” 1938: “It belongs in a museum!”

i bet everyone who banged on about macOS becoming more like iOS didn’t have iPadOS becoming more like macOS on their bingo cards

the series finale of the handmaid’s tale is staggeringly good. it’s an earned ending and doesn’t short change, but it’s not really over since we have the testaments coming in the next year or two. not gonna lie, had tears in my eyes a couple of times. nolite te bastardes carborundorum.

the best thing to do with these emails is to delete them on sight. they are churned out en masse with generational variations between them over the years, and are not targeted. the advice in this article is mostly overwrought and needless. just delete them!

chinook blade slap best blade slap fight me

i would love if trailers didn't do "TRAILER STARTS NOW" bumpers at the top, and didn't do the "click click whirr whirr" rhythmic cutting thing

someone needs to explain to me why the new series of Doctor Who is "season 2" and why it is not season 15, and especially why it is not series 41. longest running sci-fi tv show my arse.

hey, the handmaid’s tale wasn’t a goddamn roadmap

"tip: yank the HDMI cable out the back before you leave so it won’t turn your TV on" hey @mackeza.bsky.social you can disable HDMI-CEC in [Settings] > [System] > [Display] > [Enable HDMI Display Link], Off! a weird device, i wonder when it'll be jailbroken so it can run steam link or moonlight

a us attorney who clerked for scalia, is a member of the federalist society, and who was due to go on mat leave in march, basically just gave the finger to trump over the adams case. ooft.

you do it. if it's that innocuous, you do it.

this is code for "can everyone who doesn't understand what is going on please just fuck off"

i still use bash on my mac/linux systems, rather than zsh. someone sell me on switching.

oh jesus god no

Always remember.

mmmmm, numnumnum inevitable schadenfreude tastes so good

people *do* watch the same things and talk about them, just not at exactly the same time. in the '00s and the late '90s, we loved big tv shows online, but airings were balkanised. it took 7 months for friends to appear in the uk. now content drops are global and (almost) immediate. insular, my arse.

audiogalaxy for me but same

doing advent of code in bash isn't *that* masochistic. or sociopathic. is it? #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024 ... i mean, is it?

as dutifully employed by maga hat wearers, brexiteers, conspiracy theorists, anti-vaxxers, rangers supporters … funny that.

what’s the bluesky equivalent of the fail whale? the rectify butterfly?

5m sales since 2012. but how?

a lovely ode to one of my favourite movies, and props to @lukebuckmaster.bsky.social for not falling into the weird trap of calling it by its poster tagline (Live. Die. Repeat.) i know it was liman’s first choice, but seeing it called that on some streamers is plain weird.

I think there's a big difference between what people think of when they hear about Bluesky blocking, and what it actually means in practice for most of us. So I made a diagram.

well this verification-by-domain-name is saucy as all get out.

so this thing is a thing?
