In fiction, the metaverse is only popular because reality is too awful to endure and humans need an escape.

why is webpack so fucking hard to use

I just had a pleasant customer service experience with the California Franchise Tax Board.

The representative was courteous, knowledgeable, and—most importantly—empowered to correct an egregious error on the FTB’s side.

(This is not me. I'm all-in on Thunderbolt and the only memory card I have touched in the last 5 years was for my Nintendo Switch.)

I prefer to use separate cables for my monitor, power, and peripherals.

I prefer to use physical media cards because my other equipment still doesn't have gigabit Wi-Fi.

Who am I?

The professional Apple pandered to in creating the new MacBook Pro.

Linux on the notebook now means getting an inferior OS, inferior CPU/GPU, inferior battery life, and inferior display.

This is what the open/libre ecosystem is up against now. Unless you’re Snowden, no one would accept these tradeoffs.

Intel keeps getting its ass handed to it by Apple silicon.

There’s nothing remotely close to comparable to Apple’s notebook line.

Early in my career, a CEO told me I couldn’t be a moral person. He said he couldn’t support my (gay) marriage. He brought my sex life into the office conversation.

This is why employee resource groups matter. Here is how I started one. #ComingOutDay

I gotta doozy of a blog post coming out tomorrow morning: a personal story I have wanted to share for over a decade and a resource to help prevent similar trauma.

Ignore the trailer.

“Q-Force” on Netflix is hilarious queer cartoon excellence!

I’m really happy and life is fucking good. I wish the same for you.

It’s adorable that Quora thinks I $5/month like it to subscribe.

Sorry honey child, you are not OnlyFans. Better off adopting #WebMonetization.

Swedish English lesson

Apartment in American English = 100% home you rent

Apartment in Swenglish = ownership or rentership ambiguous, just means a multi-unit dwelling

Condo in US: 100% home you own

Condo in Swenglish = [confused looks]

Linux will win the desktop before Apple Keynote supports SVG images.

(which is to say: Apple Keynote will never support SVG images)

I took a huge loss in the turnip market this week. Checked twice every day and the sell price was always lower than purchase price. Daisy Mae should go to jail over this. I demand Tom Nook enact consumer financial protections. #ACNH
