It said “Great!” in what I can only assume was an act of passive aggression.

Need coffee.

👀 The Light Phone III

The new Dragon Age trailer looks like total shit.

EA: truly one of the world’s worst companies.

I nearly fell over.

I recently learned that the guy behind the Rabbit AI toy made that thing from the remains of a crypto scam (lol redundant phrase I know).

From “broken” to “bug” to “hallucination”.

We love to lie to each other.

Back into the swing of things. Feels good!

Now that I’ve finished some very late-night reading of the RSS 2.0 specification, it’s time for sleep.

Vincent Ritter, introducing Sublime Feed makes a point that feels like it was just for me:

There is also no concept of “unread”. I don’t need that in my life… and I know some of you do. I think having an unread count isn’t healthy. Each time you load up your feed it’s a snapshot of this very moment in time and you can just pick and choose. I think it’s easy enough to remember the post you just read and move onto the other.

I agree with this, mostly. Given that I’ve given up on remembering every little thing, Sublime Feed will be a place in which I will only read my favourites.

Avocados help with guessing.

Had avocado on toast for breakfast. That’s my millennial duties done for the day.

Either my ears are weird or some people are literally watching different versions of movies because I can hear the dialogue.

Ouch.

I accidentally bought a prebiotic soda… and I like it?

A comic-style MB theme, in which the reply box is a speech balloon.

I don’t think the Micro.blog community is any better off if we’re unwilling to say what we mean. Given my position of relative privilege — my life as a carer makes this status somewhat complicated — I am more than happy to be explicit about this.

For this I will rarely use short posts.

Finished a (too) late night with a deeply satisfying task: re-developing the TIL roadmap. The first part of Orchid was, by necessity, weighty. To fulfil my goals with the programme future updates will contain fewer changes.

The primary benefit is that I’ll quickly make improvements.

Got some spam via the TIL contact form. Kinda weird…

Fixed iCloud (as best as I could) and have now switched TIL over to relying on Dropbox for basic active sync.

What a waste of time. Thanks, Apple.

There’s a story about Apple geofencing browser development — as part of their nonsense with the EU — and I have not been able to quickly find full proof of the claims being made against the company.

Still, that the claim even has a chance of being realistic reflects a sad state of affairs.
