well, time to change browsers then.

feels like the dissapointment is just inevitable with these large companies now. Even duckduckgo has an ai summary on search results now which really disappointed me.

I'm getting a sneaking suspicion that whoever worked on the Marathon UI was a big fan of Evangelion.

Oh sick
A well-known and frequently used website actually put their foot down in a meaningful way. This actually made my day better

Opening Animal Crossing for the first time in... maybe 3 years, and petrified of:
- The potential whole island coverage of weeds
- Losing my favourite villagers
- Nook discovering Capitalism 2.0 and every house is now a Bank.

Everytime I go to rebase on git and remembering which way round 'yours' and 'theirs' actually is in a rebase.

It's hard to put into words just how much of an impact Patrick has had in my life over the years. He'll be sorely missed.

Oh i just looked it up. It's being able to edit any photo or video with AI. What in the actual fuck.

Having a nice chill one here too, mostly just shite tv, wine and cheese right now.

@kanaratron.bsky.social I'm guessing your repost of the lists is the reason i had a surge in followers 😂

And no matter what you do to prevent updates, it still finds a way to update.

Before I uninstalled the update I had a functional space-heater as a CPU hitting 100C for no reason

If you're suddenly getting a load of CPU/High-fan usage on windows startup for no reason, and CPU load is looking low in task-manager - Uninstalling update KB5068861 in Windows Updates resolved it for me. Something in that update is making the CPU go screwy (Intel i5 14600KF for me)
