Time to google ‘passkey’. This word seems to have appeared out of nowhere in the past six months or so with several of my tech services.

Obligatory “What could possibly go wrong? /s”

Gonna need to see a legit source on that that doesn’t read like right-wing nutjobbery or Russian botnik drivel.

Been using DuckDuckGo for a month or two. It's mostly good enough for me.

I don't think any one thing is gonna be a magic fix. We gotta do all the things rather than focus on just one aspect.

VS for Mac (the discontinued one) is different from VS Code.

The leopards only eat the bad zoo patrons. Well, that, and every new leopard gets to eat one child, but only when we first get the leopard.

Inappropriate, IMO. I read it as [discussion of] a desire to murder the actual person.

As someone who has mucked about inside the PowerShell code a bunch, it's a mess. It looks like clean OO design on the surface, but once you dig in, you find it's actually a fairly tightly-coupled tangle of spaghetti. It gets the job done, I guess, but it's not enjoyable to hack on.

I’m not even an Apple fan. If Android had the product support longevity and privacy of iOS, I’d consider it. But nope, we get disposable products and an icky privacy history. I wouldn’t call Apple great in either category. AFAIK there are no smartphone manufacturers who are.

I like and monetarily support Phoronix the news site, but the forums have some of the worst Linux users. Lots of people upset about the silliest things and confidently spouting incorrect nonsense.

Definitely counts.

Fuck that. I’d be miserable without coffee, Benadryl, acetaminophen, and especially paroxetine.

IIRC, it is a C runtime function that stabs a file.

The flight attendant wasn't getting paid if the doors of the plane were still open. Maybe if Air Canada paid them, they would care about vomit.

I know the evidence says that therapy works in general, but yeah, it’s difficult to believe. And to be honest, I’d rather take a pill than talk to a therapist, all else being equal.

It's fun, they pay me for it, I'm good at it, and I can work entirely from home.

You write the bribe check to the politician, then your balance goes down while theirs goes up.

Seriously considering swapping over to my Linux partition as main and virtualizing the Windows side this weekend. Still need the Windows because well, I make Windows software.

Nothing says "conservative" quite like destroying the thing you were supposed to conserve.
