In a blink of a second, Google IO is presenting a vibecoded Android app that "manually" parses JSON on the main thread. But ... since your company CEO can do that by themself, that's progress, isn't it?

Rest in peace @nasmo.bsky.social. You were an amazing friend, an inspiration for many people and just an overall lovely personality. You will be dearly missed and remembered.

New awesome header by @burgerkapitany.bsky.social <3 Look at this goofy ah fox.

macOS media indexing service broke a brand new M.2 SSD after half a year of 24/7 usage. Nice. Now i had to throw out 100+€ for a new one, since 256GB internal storage is basicly unusable once you install Xcode. You can't even install OS updates lmao.

If you hear any news that I am unalive, please ignore that. I have someone spreading rumours for some reason. Thanks guys!

The latest COSMIC frosted glass WIP.

COSMIC 1.0.9 has been released. It includes performance improvements, input method support, text ellipsizing, wifi network search in settings, screenshots saved in a separate folder, and more polish and quality of life improvements. github.com/pop-os/cosmi...

That new @infektdubstep.com EP hits all the right spots :D

I migrated to the Android Screenshot Plugin, and I suddenly miss the Kover's code coverage. Here's the fix: hrach.dev/posts/androi...

Someone patched GIMP to look and feel exactly like Adobe Photoshop. Same keyboard shortcuts. Same tool layout. Same everything. It's called PhotoGIMP and it's free.

no, seriously, try r8 that comes with agp 9.2.0-alpha05+ it addresses github.com/Kotlin/kotli..., and turns out if you make atomic operations 2x faster, it makes the whole thing 2x faster when the library performs atomic operations almost exclusively under the hood

IntelliJ IDEA 2026.1 is out!

Doing an anti-import rework of my current project so i can source parts only from within the EU. Import tax is killing my electronics projects otherwise -.-
