    Exactly. I read that statement and now I think I need to go to the ER because I strained my eyes from rolling them so hard. I'm curious what he means by this solution harming vulne…

    Having never seen any Studio Ghibli films before, I watched all of them in release order last month, Jan 2023. I'm so glad I did. With few exceptions, the films are masterpieces of…

    Tweetbot was the only way I interacted with Twitter for years. I refuse to use the website and I refuse to download Twitter's app. When it was finally revealed that this move was i…
