@davidpierce.xyz @reckless.bsky.social loved the vibecoding bit in the last podcast. And yes, David, Claude makes up stuff, use Codex instead - but hey, github.com/rcarmo/piclaw is my take on my equivalent of your note workflow, for my needs

Finally saw #F1 (the #movie). Can’t believe it took me this long, but it was a decent start to the year.

Unicode is hard. But I couldn’t pass up the chance for a snarky commit message…

Happy 0x7EA, everybody!

This was the best holiday season I’ve had in years, side-project wise Original post: mastodon.social/@taoofmac/11...

#vibecoding #music on my #norns

Classic.

Have we started sending out #ai generated #xmas cards yet? If not, I’ll have a go at it with something perfectly sensible, just that little obvious bit off, but well meaning - Merry Christmas!

We are now at a point where AI is self-improving. I added a tool to a local project-specific MCP server, Copilot started using it, spotted a bug in the outputs, fixed the MCP server, asked me to ps aux & kill the Python process for the MCP, and carried on. GPT-5.2 is scary good compared to Claude.

The mysterious physical phenomenon that causes most of the food in your house to disappear overnight? Teenagers.

Primal life hack

You know we’re closer to AGI when it can sort out issues with CMake

I left the house. Mariah Carey intensifies.

So early this morning I released a #python #fastaoi server for #TRMNL #eink devices on #GitHub, and the founder asked me if it could be added to their set of contributed BYOS implementations - and of course I just moved it there: github.com/usetrmnl/byo...

TIL that #samurai #jack art looks amazing even in quad-level #eink (my custom #trmnl server is set to rotate a random image in every now and then).

Yeah, I can make this work (doing my own custom #TRMNL server, with blackjack and LLMs)

Long weekends have been paying off - been upgrading my #3dprinting gear with #bambulab clone parts youtu.be/aWYlb0_-Fgo

I hate to be the one person pointing out bugs in the #simulation/#matrix, but Coke Zero Vanilla is clearly something that shouldn’t exist.

Prototype next to tiny Mac and donor mouse #mac #classic #retrocomputing #3dprinting

Test print (old filament, so it’s weird, but dimensionally accurate). Now to finagle the internals a bit, and get the One Button to click. #mac #retrocomputing #classic #mouse

Yep, this 2.8” display looks like it will fit. Now for planning… #maclock #macintosh #classic #retrocomputing

This thing is too cute and cuddly to last in today’s internet, which is why I got two of them: taoofmac.com/space/review...

Hmmm. I’m going to need a smaller LCD screen. #maclock #mac #classic #se30 #retrocomputing

Okay, let’s see how true to life this thing is. #maclock #mac #classic #clock #retrocomputing

#Fedora #MacBook Let’s gooooo!

Death by Scrolling, a game I've been helping by testing it a lot is out now, and with a discount!!! It's a fun RPG Roguelike Action packed game, give it a go!

I don’t keep track of indie dev marketing that often, but this is just great, and I don’t even play TRPGs: youtu.be/P86uvPvFShM

Confirmed: Apple's polishing cloth is compatible with the new M5 MacBook Pro

Why doesn’t #Apple let us schedule different watch faces for different times of day? Asking for a friend.

I’m so happy that #Futurama has become a wholesome (and seldom cancelled) part of our culture

Yay, #slowhorses is back!

This must be a Tuesday. I could never get the hang of Tuesdays.

Designing a new screen bezel to replace my SK1’s proprietary screen with KlipperScreen. #3dprinting #mods #hardware #cad

Computing “problems” that weren’t on my bingo card for 2025: generating wordclouds for OpenGraph metadata is too compute-intensive on the tiny ARM cores I run my static site generator on.

Best #ios26 #messages #ichat #background ever:

I'm a little late but beta testing is starting for the iOS 26 version of Working Copy. Help me iron out bugs while taking advantage of the new powerful menu bar on iPad, the ability to open files in other apps with in-place editing and the liquid glass design. testflight.apple.com/join/XpTrDS5U

Found on Reddit, the wonders of #macOS #tahoe #design:

Well, after a full night of charging and reinfecting, yes, #ios26 drains the #battery faster:

The #liquidglass battery tax is real:

Oh, I now have three slightly different touch keyboard looks in iOS 26 depending on which app I’m using. This just gets better and better.

How do civilians manage updating their #apple #watch with a 2.6GB download?

On the other hand, having _four_ different window corner radius(es) on #macOS #Tahoe is maddening. #apple must have it in for people with #ocd - and taste.

Surprisingly, my iPad mini 5 now has multiple windows (3/4) when running iOS 26. It being much slower is, of course, by design…

Get ready for the #LiquidGlass tsunami, folks!
