*this has been my daily “we shouldn’t have yearly phone releases” rant.

Cool, so they’re effectively trying to brick older devices?

That was fun!

From a Dev and tinker perspective: this is neat!

From a personal perspective: wtf, this literally just accelerates a loss of art.

Thank you for attending my self-diverging opinions chat.

Alternatively, how about some novel shows instead?

Finally watched Subservient and was pleasantly surprised, even though I initially thought them giving away that she was a robot was the wrong move.

That was a fun ride, and that timeline was long for mitigation.

Cool 😎

Maybe they should’ve actually said what was wrong instead of being a terrible company.

Storytime!

I was taking a mental health day not too long ago and went to a local diner. My thought was I should try interacting outside my bubble to make me feel better. And it kinda worked…ish. I should’ve read the flags, one of which was him saying my paper was fake news, but alas.

Started talking to this old dude, apparently had a long historical knowledge of his family, which he stated family history placed their start in the 1700s. Talked about how his family took place in all the wars.

After an insane detour on how the North actually was at fault for the first shots fired, he pivoted to how Sherman burned down the family plantation. How absolutely terrible that was for his family.

Then he pivoted to talking about the KKK, and whewwww did that illuminate the absolute dichotomy of history for me. He stated that “they originally formed to protect women that were beat by their husbands.” After I asked about the whole racism bit, he said it wasn’t as bad as people made out.

At that point I grabbed my check and peaced out. Totally helped me get over my funk by showing just how fucking insane people’s idea of history is.

Ya that was a fucking mess. I truly don’t understand how the Rs could be thunderously applauding anything, until I realize they just don’t care.

If they’re not sanitizing that, they deserve to have their system broken lol

Didn’t check “rezero” when formatting 🙃

Babymetal is probably the best head down coding music I’ve ever experienced, have listened since 2016 or so

Not a privacy nightmare at all!

It feels like he just enjoyed creating things, be it ADHD or something else

“One of the things that he struggled with was actually finishing projects,” Baldwin said. “He would get to a prototype and then he would just kind of get excited by the next bright, shiny object to put it in kind of a modern term. And he never really got around to actually, like, you know, commercialising it or making it a financial success.”

Alternatively, he enjoyed doing a hobby and didn’t feel that he should commercialize it?

Good
