if you played sonic the hedgehog and put down the controller, sonic would look at you and tap his foot impatiently. this was proof that sega genesis cartridges had souls. the decision was made to make the storage cases a lot larger than the cartridges so they would have room to move around in there

I switched from Samsung Android to iPhone some 13 years ago when I could not AirDrop pictures of the child to my wife, and the text message quality of the jpg & video from Android to iPhone was garbage. Good to see them adding it back in, 13+ years later

Au being the symbol for gold means 'AuDHD' is like gold-plated ADHD, and I think that makes perfect sense.

ever since I was a child, I knew I wanted to one day have 13 streaming apps, all of which hide the closed captioning options in a different place

Red Lobster never released a commercial with a jingle that went “Shrimply having a wonderful Fishmastime.” That’s why they went bankrupt.

One of the huge perks of working at a software company is, when there's something about the product that bothers you personally, you can get your hands dirty and find out why it's basically impossible to get fixed

Your package will be delivered sometime today. The driver has the package. The package is out. Oh you just left your house for a couple hours? The package was left outside your front door 5 minutes after you left…

Your grandparents bought a house on a single income. You have a master's degree and three roommates. But at least you can summon any song ever recorded in 2 seconds, so it evens out?

This is the sort of insider tip life hack that I come to social media for. Like when another person noted I could brew 2 shots of espresso but put a cup under each side instead of making 1 shot and then another shot after ☕️

AI agents being able to run unit tests is SUCH a massive unlock. If you're a dev who has utilized unit tests heavily: using a tool like Claude Code makes so much sense. And if you don't yet use tests: with AI agents, don't see how you would not do it sooner or later...

This is exactly right. It's happening about the internet itself, too. People are assigning false rose-colored nostalgia memories to the web, describing a "good old days" that elides how terrible and exclusionary the past eras of the internet were.
