A lot of problems disappear when you have a Dremel.

Youtube is funny. Watch one video about trains and YT's all like "HERE'S 9000 MORE TRAIN VIDEOS" so you watch one video on camping and YT pivots to "YOU WANT TO WATCH EVERY OTHER VIDEO FROM THIS PERSON NOW ?" It's like Amazon offering up another toilet seat once you've already bought one...

Holy moly, Google's Antigravity is actually pretty damn powerful.

This would be what you'd get if you told your slightly hard of hearing grandmother you wanted a "3ds" for Christmas. "oh, I thought you said ZEE not THREE !"

I've just written a 37 line long PostgreSQL query...

Hold up... why is my house in Diablo 4 ?

No Xbox, I will not be verifying my age. You can see I've had my Live account since ~2002 when it was created shortly after you launched Live.

Such a vibe - me too :)

I hope it's about the Intergalactic Social Services ;)

Why would ANYONE want Motion Blur enabled in anything ?!

I just paste the URL into Gemini and ask it to summarise the video for me. Makes watching longform videos so much easier and you get the info you want/need without having to watch 20 minutes of extra stuff, especially when it's made by a "rambly Youtuber" (you know the ones).

Why is it that developers become complete dickheads once their tool becomes widely used ?

Remember when all the "Youtubers" were bitching at the "algorithm" for ruining their views, only for it to be nothing to do with Youtube at all and was a line in an adblock list ? Fun times. I wonder how they're all doing...

I really worry about the future of the human race. Does no one have any common sense these days ?

Anyone else instantly not want to deal with a company when they use "you're" instead of "your" ? "Transform you're outdoor space" - nah, maybe not.

Hey @discord.com - Sudden, forced audio changes are scientifically intrusive due to auditory sensory processing differences (like hyperacusis) common in ASD, ADHD, etc. They cause sensory overload and distress by removing predictability. Opt-in is better, giving users control over their sounds.

Hate it when you have 20+ years of experience in something, you build a solution and make sure it's secure etc, then someone sends you an "I asked ChatGPT what you should do, make sure these things are done" email and half of it doesn't relate to the solution, and the rest you've already done.

OK, kinda funny :P

You know what drives me mad... people who use the term "wifi" to mean their internet connection. "I can't get wifi in my house" - yes you can, buy an access point. What you mean is you can't get AN INTERNET CONNECTION. "My wifi's down", no it's not, your wifi is fine - your ISP's just fucked.

Boohoo, poor multi-billion pound company. Maybe you shouldn't have been scammy little cunts.

Shame they ignored all this when they created Liquid Glass and forced it into a desktop OS...

Why do people on Reddit seem to think that ChatGPT is the answer to everything, and that every answer it generates is 100% truthful cos it has "access to the internet"... Idiots.

Internal TLS cert expired for my home lab. Had to work out the whole process I did a year ago to renew it. Renewed it for 3 years. Will go through the whole process again in 2028. You're welcome Future Me !

Hey ‪@xblock.aendra.dev‬ - if you're going to erroneously label posts with your labeller, make sure your appeals process also functions...

Man, Youtubers are in a different world to the rest of us. You didn't "reinvent the clock", you just built a clock.

My first PoP experience was on my Granddad's Amiga 500 when we used to visit him as a kid.

if you see this quote post a bridge

Until you install something that upgrades your kernel, now all your DKMS's need recompiling cos nothing works, but one won't recompile cos it's not compatible with that kernel version so that application is now no longer something you can use :P

Remember back when people were spending 10's of thousands of money to buy a JPEG of a monkey ? Fun times.

Mine are actually on my R: drive.

Anyone elses Bsky keep randomly forgetting they're logged in ?

Youtubers: ERMERGERD THE ALGORITHM FUCKED ME OVER ! Narrator: it was actually a third party uBlock blocklist which got updated around the 11th August and bugger all to do with Youtube's algorithm in any way at all. Me: *surprised Pikachu meme* www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2025/di...

Tahoe upgrade... Forced to Use It: Liquid Glass Won't Use It: Folder customisation, Live Translation, Control Centre, Shortcuts, Genmoji, Image Playground, Live Activities, Phone app, Messages, Spotlight, Games. Worthwhile upgrade then I see...

Nice chill evening setting all these up again :) Do the things that make YOU happy - who cares about what other people think.

Offered my 8x6 shed to someone FOR FREE, and they had the audacity to ask if I was delivering it. No, pick your shitty free shed up yourself you cheeky fuck.

*sigh* time to add another term to my "Muted Words" list...

Bought myself a dumb alarm clock to try and stop me doom scrolling when I should be sleeping. We'll see how that goes :P

WTF, just phoned my old optician to get a copy of my prescription and the receptionist cut me off while I was explaining why and said "can't they just get it from your existing glasses". No. Your optician did something specific to my prescription to help correct vertical double vision..

Hi Spotify, how can this be "made for" me if nearly 800000 people have saved it ?

An entire desk is available, yet my cat will ALWAYS walk across my works laptop keyboard...

Dear @metro.co.uk - stop with the slideshow news articles. They're dumb and serve no purpose. Just put the 5 paragraphs and 2 repeated pictures onto the same page. Signed, Literally everyone.

The default should be "For the love of god, don't put an icon on my desktop" for everything. Why the hell do I need a Youtube icon on my desktop ?!?!

Kinda weird, cos they don't have access to my Gmail, so how they gonna reset the password. Scammers are fucking dumb.

I expected more from @polygon.com - maybe other devs are delaying their games so that players can play Silksong without also having 14 other games they want to play at the same time ? Blaming Team Cherry for this is absurd.

Let me guess... is it "YOU GET A FUCKING TOMATO PLANT !?" 2025, where Youtubers discover arable farming as if it's a new technology... not sure what's worse, this or AI slop.

My Indigo iMac G3 slot loader from 2001, plus the speakers I could never afford back then.

OMG IT WORKS

I do the same kinda thing by using VLC to capture my Spotify audio and stream it out as an MP3 from my main PC, which I then play with iTunes on my iMac G3.

*loads these into Tabletop Simulator to complete as jigsaws*
