Saw a sign in France espousing "black Friday deals"... Lolwut?

This is bad UI In the Sound settings in Windows 11 - you can disable a sound device that you don't want apps to be able to use However, when you open the UI to do that you are faces with a button that says "Don't Allow" or "Allow" - Which really doesn't tell you what the current state is

I'm working remotely in a hotel room, and I just had to break down and get a couple of those cheap portable external monitors. However, I feel like @bitcrazed.bsky.social is judging me.

I think one my absolute favorite things about the JavaScript ecosystem, that nobody ever talks about, is support for source maps, and just how complex and innovative that is. 🧵 [1/5]

Wow. Is docker desktop ever bad at what happens when disk space hits zero.

Meh, what can go wrong? Seriously tho' ... I discovered an actual viable reason to check the second box Docker desktop is A BIT DISK INTENSIVE ... so I moved the vhdx files for that to an otherwise unused drive It's for test/dev work only, so I don't care about the contents

Latté and I are coding out on the deck this morning.

About a year ago, I started my weight loss journey. I've lost 100 lbs so far. I feel better, look better and I'm still going. What a difference a year can make.

Graffiti in Montana is a bit different I see

I was somehow convinced to cater a wedding reception, based on my ability to BBQ for 125 people Today is that day. Prime rib supper for 100 people. I'm a bit surprised I agreed to this. I'm a bbq'er not a caterer. Let's hope I don't mess this up...

A buddy of mine sent me this picture. My response: IS THAT AN ACTUAL NEWSPAPER?!??

White cat demands lots of scritchin this morning.

#QQs - I have questions about resumes. (Comment here or on LinkedIn) www.linkedin.com/posts/garret...

My daughter Téa has been self-learning animation, music, etc and ... here is her first full length music video. She did this entirely herself from scratch. Please, if you can, watch this and give her some encouragement and feedback, it'd be worth a lot to her. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qq7p...

I just noticed that someone made a video of making caramel based on my Caramel 3.0 recipe www.youtube.com/watch?v=vraO... recipe: fearthecowboy.com/food/2020/04...

About to record a video - I go looking for my DSLR camera and ... I can't find it. I was pretty sure that it's in a box in my garage. I went and looked and didn't find it Do I just run down to a pawn shop & see if I can find a cheap DSLR that will do, or spend hours trying to dig thru the garage?

Well, I was one of the 3% who got laid off Microsoft today.

Panera Bread will rue the day they let me have unlimited drinks for $5/month.

When good AIs go baaaad. LOLWUT?

I really dislike that when you ask an AI to do something, and if they mess it up of get it wrong and you correct them, they'll always apologize or say stuff like "You're absolutely right -- ..." It really comes off as a bit irritating - but I really don't know what I want it to say.

Every time I hear "vibe coding" I think that's what happens when you hit your ballmer peak.

I am wondering if I should stock up on some PETG filament before tariffs start to raise prices.

If they want Canada to become part of the US, I have a list of non-negotiable conditions. If the US can agree to 100% of these conditions, I'm on board.

I've never met Fabrice Bellard personally, but the impact that this one man has had on computing technology can not be overstated. Software you use absolutely has some of his code it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fabrice...

After seeing what happened to Francis, I'm betting that the PM in Greenland is pretty happy he didn't meet with Vance.

JFC JD. I'm starting to think maybe you did.

I have been saying for years that the red state rural town people in this country have been looking at Chump as if he were a lottery ticket. Unfortunately it ain't gonna pay off.

Inauguration of the 2025 BBQ season

I spent 16 years in Saskatchewan, and another 17 years in Alberta. So very disappointed in their blind dedication to conservative politics especially when it threatens the very existence of the country.

VSCode with remoting (using 'tunnels' or 'ssh') works SO DAMN WELL. Someone should get an extra serving of dessert for this kind of work.

The only correlation of people with autism and vaccinations is that there arr many more people living past the age of 5, and because of that, more people can be diagnosed correctly.

There are basil leaves from my hydroponic garden. Banana for scale

My hydroponic garden is exploding! My basil is HUGE The tomato plants have doubled in size in a week And the new strawberry roots I planted are all sprouting massive leaves in just six days

Hey, does anyone know where I can specifically buy seeds for genetically modified plants? I'm sick of seeing "non-GMO" fearmongering on packages , and I kind of want access to the kind of super foods that modern science has to offer.

29 Years ago today, I went on a date with a cute girl. She's still my cute girl.

I just want to pause for a moment and really give thanks for how unbelievably great 'git' is. I think we're all so used to what it does for us, we don't stop to think how bad other version control systems were. Really, I don't know how we'd get as much done without it. #Git

Found via facebook... ROTFLMAO

I can stop anytime I want...

I've recently gotten into printing some hydroponic grow towers and growing some vegetables (and now strawberries!) The image is a bit purple because I have a UV light in there to encourage growth I had some basil plants in a pot that were on the verge of dying so I replanted them in my grow tower

I'll leave this here in case you need a pick me up today

MO$%&RF$&%$KING HELL. They removed BinaryFormatter from PowerShell in 7.5. I promise, I wasn't going to use it for anything important. It's just a metric shipton faster than JSON to serialize something to disk for later. FFFFFFFFFF

My kingdom for PowerShell but based on TypeScript/Node instead of .NET

"Tesla stock falls after Trump official urges Americans to ‘invest in Elon Musk’" Donald Trump’s commerce secretary told Americans to buy stock in Elon Musk’s electric car company, only for shares in Tesla to keep falling. Now do crypto! uk.news.yahoo.com/tesla-stock-... :D

Yeah.

Musky Nutz Starship One is doomed. Mostly because of Musky Nutz. www.planetearthandbeyond.co/p/starship-w...

With the TypeScript compiler being ported over to Go, I thought I'd take a look at the language again, having not done a deep dive into it before It's *different*. I think Go has a lot of good ideas in it, concurrency is well thought through.

You know, the whole world went on a serious downward spiral from the moment that they killed Harambe.
