If someone was searching for a charger for a Pebble Time... where would be the best place to look? The charging stand thing I got years ago doesn't seem to be working (multimeter says 0 when I measure the leads), and I'd love to get my Time working again 😅... @repebble.com

@comicbook.com honest question: do these ads really pay enough to render your site unusable? Because I just left after realizing I couldn't even fit a single screenshot in the space left behind these ads...

Is @slack.com and @discord.com trying to cause an incident? They've both seemed to replace the Flag of Scotland with a flag of something else... Apparently maybe with Seychelles?

Does anyone else remember protected browsing mode on Servers? Did you ever think you would long for having it back? Have you launched Edge on Server 2025 recently? Apparently we went from secure by default to AI by default?

I'm sitting here listening to @zachwlambert.bsky.social's book on audible. And I just found out he holds the same belief as me about Christmas music. It is far too good to be played just at Christmas! This is an opinion I have held for over 25 years.

Anyone know what this is from in an empty editor tab in @vscode.dev? Is this @github.com copilot that I've had disabled for ages? I tried ctrl+i but it didn't do anything (I suspect because of vim bindings...)

Pres 'ctrl' + 'I' to ask to do something. Start typing to dismiss.

I saw this on Facebook with the caption "Cursed right triangles" (or something to that effect). I got a chuckle out of it and immediately thought of @standupmaths.bsky.social. It then got me thinking, is there a right triangle such that a, b, c are whole numbers, and a=b?

Drawing on graph paper showing a right triangle with two inner right triangles. The sides of the outer triangle are labeled with 0's. The inner triangles both have a hypotenuse of 0 and have sides of 1 and i or -1 and i.

So Fitbit/Google says "You must move your Fitbit account to a Google account"... But also: "oh, you pay for your Google account? Yeah, no you can't do that..." Because what I always wanted when I got my own domain for these things was to create yet another account...

How would I discover this? I opened my terminal window one day and a new feature appeared. No directions, no hints, no way to find help. Literally some greyed out text at my prompt when I open windows terminal with no hint where it came from How do we help the next folks with the next feature?

Does anyone know: When using Ctrl+P to navigate to a file in @vscode.dev, how do you determine which file is which without using the mouse? Difference between these files is that these are in two different directories. If I mouse over them, I can see the directory. But I don't want to use my mouse.
