Looks interesting. Marked it for exploration. Too many cool projects to explore and not enough time!

That’s after the merger.

I reported a bug too late in the dev cycle and it hasn’t been fixed since 2009.

We’re being forced to move everyone to W11 by the end of the year. It’s gonna be hell.

This is the thing I hate most about windows. Did it register the thing I clicked? Is something happening? If I click again will it do the task twice? Complete opposite of how my Mac works.

They’re too long. Geez, learn to implement shorthand or acronyms. What are you a monster?

This is the year of Firefox-on-the-desktop. I can feel it.

Wow, Boeing keeps finding new and interesting ways to be incompetent. They seriously need their entire C-suite replaced with engineering types.

It’s one of the biggest tech corps making the argument. I feel ok about where I posted it.

Make a mouse that fits my hand. Current one is comically tiny. I’ll stick with Logitech.

Which is why I said that I’m a purist. But whatever works, they’re both worth exploring. I got dug-in on my solution a decade ago and haven’t really had a reason to change once I learned it.

Pfsense. I’m a purist.

Excuse me, that’s Tim Apple.

You should be able to have multiple versions with an environment manager, maybe customize your shell profile to alias python to the one you want and the other users can alias to the one they want. I’m sure there’s a better way, but I strongly dislike python every time I try to learn it because Perl was the first language I learned, ruining me for strongly opinionated languages.

I hadn’t considered that. He couldn’t get away with it now, but if the orange bad gets back into power and we go full-fash, I definitely think it’d be used against “enemies.”

Nope. I have used WordPress on a blog or two, but I didn’t know what WP Engine was until a couple of weeks ago.

Probably in a backpack or suitcase or something. I travel with iPads and have never had a problem because I’m careful not to risk them ending up that way.

I once worked as a tech at an Apple Store and I would have said that it takes considerable force to bend them and wouldn’t cover it under the warranty. But that was before AppleCare extended to damage (late 2000s), so I dunno what the policy is now.

Edit: sorry that happened to ya.

Linode, Digital Ocean. I’ve worked with both in the past, but that was years ago so I don’t know how things are now.

404media is one of the best independent journalistic sites available. They started one year ago, so they aren’t especially well know, but they are a four person org that came from places like Vice.com and wanted to get out of the corporate bullshit. You should check out their non-paywalled articles.

“Matt’s war against WP Engine has been polarizing and upsetting for everyone in WordPress, but most of the WP community has been relatively insulated from any real effects. Putting a loyalty test in the form of a checkmark on the WordPress.org login page has brought the conflict directly to every community member and contributor. Matt is not just forcing everyone to take sides, he is actively telling people to consult attorneys to determine whether or not they should check the box,” the anonymous contributor I spoke to told me. “It is also more than just whether or not you agree to a legally dubious statement to log in. A growing number of active, dedicated community members, many who have no connection with WP Engine, have had their WordPress.org accounts completely disabled with no notice or explanation as to why. No one knows who will be banned next or for what… Whatever Matt’s end goal is, his ‘tactics,’ especially this legally and ethically ambiguous checkbox, are causing a lot of confusion and mental anguish to people around the world.”

This is the sort of behavior that causes irreparable damage to a brand. Psycho.
