A lot of companies have invested a lot into matter and thread. I’d be surprised if companies started requiring a call home to work. It doesn’t make sense to need that, since a thre…

Why does Tailscale need to be used for Claude? Can’t you just ssh into it locally?

I very much appreciate this when working on a computer that’s not mine.

I also think it’s interesting that Ladybird is decidedly not including ad blocking, but leaving it to third party extensions. In some ways it makes a lot of sense to keep doing it …

Apple does a pretty good job of extracting dopamine from black and white packaging.

Making coffee is often the only part of my day that I have control over.

This is a baffling statement.

It’s is “source available” but not open source.

I think a lot of families actually restrict or eliminate screen time altogether, and gather round using either no technology, old technology, or new technology that imitates old te…

The vinyls are a billion dollar industry. Small compared to streaming, but definitely non-negligible. https://www.riaa.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/RIAA-2024Yea...

I convinced my wife to start using a password manager, too (Bitwarden). Now she stores all of her very guessable, short, similar passwords in a manager. Sigh.

When you brake you generate a ton of heat. Doing a U-turn generates less heat, but still quite a bit. The train will have to slow down depending on the radius of the curve, and eve…
