@murteza It was probably the most uneducational show you could watch. It was MeatCanyon.

My sister went off to work and left the TV on. Now I come into the living room and the dogs is just watching cartoons. I need to sell them TV will rot their brains. But alas, these puppies don't know English.

[Slightly Perverted Humor] I heard someone refer to Vibe Coding as Cuck Coding because all you do is sit in the chair and watch.

Of all the annoyances I have with the constant vibecoding, THE LEAST important concern I have: Stop doing AppImages. Do a Flatpak. Add it to a repository so I can get automatic updates. It doesn't have to be Flathub. I'm okay adding a third-party repo. Just make it so I can update it without […]

Free Wi-Fi at McD sucks. Just randomly disconnects. It used to be one could work out in restaurants and coffee shops and have a decent time working online. Now it seems like the only reliable way to work remote is by tethering from your phone.

Working for yourself is kind of an odd thing because things you were doing before for free are now things you do as part of your job.

This is literally a photograph of me.

A black-and-white cartoon titled **“Bum-Rush Hour.”** It shows a chaotic traffic scene with several vehicles and a cyclist.

In the center, a small car labeled **“Innocent Normal People Who Drive Cars”** is being squeezed between traffic. Inside, a frightened driver and passenger scream as a bicycle wheel and handlebars intrude near the car. A speech bubble says, **“Th-that bike! Squeezing us in! Not enough room in lane… AIIEEE!!”**

On the left, a cyclist wearing a helmet rides aggressively alongside the car. Their shirt says **“Two-Wheeled Terrors,”** and they shout, **“Dad! Look out!”** and **“Ring ring!”** Another nearby bubble reads **“Heh, heh, heh!”**

On the right, another driver leans out of a car, shouting **“HONK!”** A jagged sound effect near the vehicle says **“SCREECH!”** At the bottom right, a small angry-looking pedestrian or commuter appears beside the caption **“Kami-commuter-kaze.”** The overall scene portrays rush-hour traffic as wildly dangerous and overcrowded, humorously pitting cyclists against car drivers.

Someone's bot got out of control and I received 600 spammy ransomware emails in the last three days. Getting spammy shit not that unusual, but getting 600 all at once is kinda wild.

[Spicy Tech Hot Take] All you need is USB-C on devices these days. If it's PD and USB4 compatible you can connect anything to it. Dongles are not terribe. I can use the same dongles on ALL my devices. All my mics and headphones work over USB (or Bluetooth) and it's flawless.

I accept that you can't put the genie back in the bottle and vibecoding is now part of the process. Whatever... Personally, the code I write myself I understand better than the snippets of AI generated code. (When I do use AI, I use it to help me understand why the code works or does not work.) […]

It's amazing how many things work better after you add pipewire-jack to them before they load. Even #flatpak applications that are supposed to be #pipewire enabled still work better if I frontload them with pw-jack. This was true for me with #Ardour and the new #Audacity4.
