So behind on answering messages it's crazy

RE: https://mastodon.social/@hacker_news_bot/116254173273537246 This.

RE: https://hci.social/@fasterandworse/116251378634855765 2026 mood, yeah

It's kind of fun how much more likely purego's existance has made me to just use an existing C library rather than rewrite something from scratch

Playing with the USB XDG portal a bit today and it's so nice to use!

RE: https://mastodon.social/@256/116251252554117632 Gosh I neeeeed it!

I'm so tired of filling out endless immigration paperwork

It's kind of crazy that there used to be a time where we burned songs and videos and programs onto shiny disks and gave them to friends

RE: https://mastodon.social/@parcel/116246906913409121 I'm so sick of everything getting worse all of the time

Crazy how much adding a little bit of colour to electronics changes things

2026 is the year that I just spend a bunch of time learning about cool Linux stuff and honestly I’m so here for this era

Fixing something _anywhere_ in my stack, from the boot loader to the kernel to the shell to the browser can be done in one big swoop that turns into one or more upstreaming PRs I wonder how Flatpaks could fit into this at some point. Would be neat to merge those two things in some way

Always fun to learn more about other platform’s UX patterns. The macOS stage manager thing is really strange but works somehow!

2026 so far feels like "Frutiger Aero except with war"

Something so beautiful about the rain tonight

Neat that the MacBook Neo can charge from a 20W brick!

Wow, DLSS5 actually fixes the not that great face models in Starfield?

One of the things I miss from Shenzhen/HK is the fact that there were clean washrooms in every metro station ... here in Vancouver trying to find one in DT is seemingly impossible smh

I may or may not have acquired a blush MacBook Neo 👀

Honestly, I'd pay good money for someone to do HIG reviews for the things I'm working on

The Wealthsimple app is looking so so good these days

I kind of want to buy that MacBook Neo, literally only because the Blush colour looks so absolutely adorable

Thank god for drip coffee machines because now I get to wake up every morning and have a delicious coffee for basically free

Honestly at this point I'm just looking forward to waking up on the moon

Alrighty, everything set up for the #GNOME showcase at the hardware bazaar meetup later. A GNOME OS laptop, a #phosh tablet and phone, all connected with each other via #p2panda (via Reflection as a demo), #Nextcloud (calendar, contacts, files) and #Valent /KDE Connect (notifications, clipboard etc.

Hello to the Bay Area 👋

Dude the HSR from Shenzen to Hong Kong has platform screen doors. HSR! Platform screen doors! I've never seen that anywhere this is so cooool

I haven't been able to get any OSS work done while in China, but gosh I'm so excited to get back to it. So many fresh ideas in my brain from the vacation here and also things to finish up (GNOME OS docs & PRs I've received!)

Walking around in #Hougai , Shenzen today and damn this whole place looks and feels like if Frutiger Aero aesthetics were just, without changes, turned into a real, existing place

Dachte ja eigentlich nicht dass ich auch mal noch eine allumfassende Aufbruchsstimmung mit erleben darf aber I guess I was wrong

RE: https://mastodon.social/@chatcontrol/116213295946200664 Just absolutely incredible news for digital rights today 🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺

Yk, I'm more and more realizing how I know close to nothing about what happened in the world from 1945-1949

Gosh that Macau trip was amazing. What a unique place

RE: https://social.openrightsgroup.org/@openrightsgroup/116205495518019401 I said it before and I'll say it again: What the UK has done to itself since 2010 is a warning to all of us of what not to do when fighting for our own democracies

Omw to Macao on a jet boat 🛥

Gosh the breakfast here is deliciousssss

RE: https://social.openrightsgroup.org/@openrightsgroup/116198784206730041 > could end up being used on LGBTQ+ and reproductive health content

Gosh I'd pay like $10k for a #Beeper hoster in Canada. The apps are so great, if people's experience with Matrix were always like this I think they would love it

I've been using a #HarmonyOS device for the past few days and it's def. made me re-evaluate my relationship with Android app emulation

Solar panels and wind turbines on lush green grass make for such beautiful scenery

Isch halt scho schee dasses Laendle weiderhin von ner kompetenter Partei gfuehrt wird :) Da freuts mi doch sehr des glei nachm aufstehe zlese!

Gosh I love this part of the world

Any "can Linux distro X legally include insert-software-written-with-llm-assistance-here" discussions can be immediately short-circuited to "Linux itself is software written with LLM assistance"

On Lemma Island today, what a beautiful place!

Anyone seriously using the term "Department of War" needs to get dipped into a pool of cold "reset your brain back to to 2019" juice

Crazy how navigable the Shenzen metro is with rudimentary Mandarin skills and English

Gosh the consistency and level of standardization in the Shenzen metro is absolutely incredible #transit

Shenzen mall massage chairs come with a WeChat mini app you can use to pay and control the specific chair you chose and it auto-selects the one you're in ... UX-wise it works extremely well!

Damn Luckin Coffee is pretty delicious hehe
