I thought antireflective coatings had some sort of microscopic structure but it turns out it's just a special layer that causes its own reflection in a way that causes destructive interference

I'm looking at the Kotlin mascot assets and there's a GIF of Kodee spinning around It's begging to be made into an Evangelion reference

We have HUNTR/X NONGSHIM SHIN RAMYUN NOODLES WITH SOUP MIX but where is the Saja Boys NONGSHIK SHIN RAMYUN NOODLES WITH SOUP MIX smh my head

Battery has been pretty good on One UI 8.5 Beta ZZD5 I think

Instead of going to sleep and letting my phone charge I decided to experiment with EQing the $20 Samsung AKG buds Lol

This is the ideal game to play on a PS Vita but it got canceled smh

うそやでー～

Went for a 12 mile walk to/around/from Quarry Lakes on a rainy day, that was actually pretty fun. Haven't been there in forever and doing it in the rain was a vibe.

On Surface Laptop display models there are some photos in the Camera Roll that were supposedly taken on a Nokia Lumia 830 It's an HDR compositing crime

Does Samsung disable the Blur effects on display models to make mid-range devices feel more responsive? Lol

Uh, it was a funnier idea in my head #ShotOnPSVita #AirDrop #trollface #troll #trending #💀 #AndroidGoodiPhoneBad #IAmCompletelySerious

Am I finally getting AirDrop on my Galaxy S24?

There was an attempt to make とんかつ

I have to admit the concept of auto-translating posts is actually pretty cool and I got to see some wholesome interactions between Japanese and Korean users. But paying for reach is kinda cringe and spending the past 4 hours on an endless For You feed was doing stuff to me head

I tried making this, the store didn't have sufficiently thin slices of pork and I couldn't hack it thin enough so it didn't stay together, but the seasoning is quite pleasant and not overpowering. If I were to do this again I would reduce the amount of salt I put inside the roll.

Got to the end of Stellar Blade. Not the most high-brow plotline but the gameplay was fairly fun.

California State University, East Bay decided to send me another admission letter for no reason so now I have two Perry the Peregrine Falcon cardboard figures

call me a grumpy baka but it's a little much when fansubs go too hard with stylized subtitles and they start animating random bits of dialog thank you for your work but you're doing too much 😭

Sahel Sounds don't update their blog anymore, but the existing backlog of posts tells a fascinating story of the music scene in Africa The imagery of this particular article, from around the Battle of Gao, has stuck with me and it randomly came to mind today.

ok maybe i don't have to youtu.be/0JvD53w5GsY

something about the font rendering in Firefox makes it feel more like a native Windows app whereas Chromium looks slightly different not to mention overlay scrollbars make more sense in Firefox, the handles appear when you mouse over a scrollable item which doesn't happen in Edge etc

ignore the deleted post, I tried Firefox again and they've polished their Android version nicely, the local translation is also pretty decent now Them no longer supporting Compact Mode on desktop is kinda cringe though

Someone went a little too hard with the weight machine a ha ha (The joke is that its not me)

I can tell Bluesky is using WebP now because it blurs blocks where the contrast isn't high enough. With how many people use it I'm surprised nobody has created a better encoder tuning for it. e.g. the IQ (still image) tuning in libaom for AVIF looks a lot nicer than stock, but no love for WebP.

this will be my biggest achievement of 2026

🙃

I got through the new campaign chapters in NIKKE last night, it certainly makes Neon a more interesting character rather than just a "FIREPOWER!!1!1!" person

Incredible

Elektronik Supersonik came to mind today and I realized that there's been an upscaled version on YouTube, but the audio is still in mono. I once did some shenanigans in Audacity to try and reconstruct it in stereo based on a low quality 64kbps MP3 version floating around that is in stereo

2026 discourse

do you get KEK updates on Linux? yeah i thought so

They should make real security cameras pretending to be fake security cameras pretending to be real security cameras

So you're telling me Claude functions by screaming at itself "WRITE GOOD CODE NO BUGS SECURE VERY STABLE", mashes compile button, reads back the error and yells ONLY GOOD CODE NO BUGS at itself again while crying and copying random things from Stack Overflow until it compiles? it just like me fr fr

Hardware video decoding on Linux is now enabled by default for Chromium on Wayland as of Oct 2025, so that removes one thing I was annoyed about when I was trying Linux. lol

At what point do you just turn off notifications for social media on your phone and read on the actual phone that it is (poorly) stuck to

why am i learning about the launch of Artemis II via a Peacock push notification wtf

Certified college radio moment

I'm starting to see the appeal of a wireless mouse, the cable keeps interacting with the other cables on my table which adds random amounts of resistance when mouse-ing Logitech G305 then I guess? And probably a new mousepad, this one is a few years old and はちょっと…

Sleeper PS5

I have this association of pearl necklaces with 80 year olds so whenever I see someone who isn't over 80 years old (depicted as) wearing a pearl necklace they are an おばあさん and nobody can convince me otherwise

Happy Trans Day of Visibility! Today we celebrate the trans members of our community and stand with them against discrimination. GNOME wouldn't be where it is without our trans contributors. Thank you for being here! 🏳️‍⚧️ #transgenderdayofvisibility #transrightsarehumanrights #TDOV

Happy April, fellows

An April Fools' Joke where the joke is that it's not a joke

I dragged my feet on the FiiO RR11 and now they've announced the FiiO RR13, with a replaceable battery and an internal speaker, supposedly "It keeps refined aluminum alloy shell, size near RR11." Does it still require a special cable to run in DAC mode?

I think Higano-san should've gotten at least something out of it
