Charged my work iPhone to 80% on Saturday and it’s already down to 10%. Apple just can’t make a battery last these days.

Friday's papers: University tells academics to avoid US, Finland's athlete shortage, and slippery streets Some Finnish academics are travelling to the US with blank phones and laptops.

I’m not an academic but I’m definitely also avoiding the US. Don’t even have the luxury of being provided temporary devices.

Trump put Kristi Noem down like she was a family dog.

"MacBook Neo" is short for "MacBook Neot a Good Laptop".

Rosetta 2 is already deprecated and most of the features are gonna be removed in like a year and a half. You'd need to stay on Tahoe to keep using it.

Good luck funding your game studio.

They're not gonna do that since it's basically just admitting defeat right off the bat. Probably hurts the monetization model too.

This word on my vocab deck hasn't seen much use lately I imagine.

Red Hot Chili Peppers – Californication

Today on #1001AlbumsGenerator: a great album with poor mixing.

I think my scratchy pot is scratchy no more. Copious amounts of electronic cleaner seems to have done the trick.

Also discovered that the PCB says "NON HERETICAL EDITION" on it.

Bought some electronic cleaner and jizzed it all over the insides of my Schiit headphone amplifier. Hopefully this fixes the pot without having to figure out a replacement and open up my wallet.

I'd say that I cried at two different anime today, but technically I watched the latter one after midnight so it doesn't count. It was also something I'd already watched.

I want a new headphone amplifier. Getting really tired of the scratchy pot on my Schiit.

Has Altman actually refused to do something for the Pentagon or is he just flapping his lips in order to seem human?

What could be more fun than accidentally discovering a bug that you have yourself created and already merged into the master branch?

Upcoming weather looks weird.

Can you afford to go slow when your product is a burning pile of money?

Not only do I believe that we should ban kids from social media, but that we should ban kids in general.

Wasting Microsoft's resources building my zero-star GitHub project across as many stupid architectures as I can think of. Well, as long as it doesn't require me to do more than edit three lines of YAML.

I think the question isn't "why can't AI read PDF files?", but rather "why can anyone read PDF files?"

(I've had to work with PDF files and resolved my issues by doing as little work as possible and just hoping for the readers to work with it.)

Based studio apartment enjoyer.

When are they making the CSAM ad against (now Pentagon-approved) Grok?

Cho Kaguya-hime! was cho good.

Yuuuuup.

Guess I'll need to watch hockey.

South Korean court hands life term to ex‑President Yoon in insurrection trial A South Korean court ordered life in jail on Thursday for former President Yoon Suk Yeol, after holding him guilty on charges of abuse of authority and masterminding an insurrection, stemming from his...

I’ll start a countdown for the eventual pardon.

Yeah, I think even if everyone I stay in contact using Discord stopped using it, the game identification for tracking is too good to give up.

I had the thought of using Steam as the alternative for Discord when everyone jumps off it (since I mostly just use DMs), but then I remembered how shitty Steam Chat is on mobile.

Also, I guess I can't really abandon it fully since my game time tracking is based off of Discord.
