I have a lot of regrets in my life, but one of my biggest is not buying a new cpu, motherboard and ram a year ago.

Do you ever plant something and by the time it starts sprouting you have no idea what you planted and you either need to take care of some trees over the winter or your cat is about to get some catnip. I really need to label things.

I switched to #Bazzite #linux two days ago from Windows 11 which has been a really positive experience. A lot better process than the last few distros I've tried. I'm documenting my experience in a few posts on my app Newt. In part 1 I create a sticky note app. newt.page/u/samwichgam...

Good design is so obvious when you see it but takes so much refinement and thoughtfulness to achieve.

I just patted myself on the back for doing something good for myself and it kind of felt nice 🤣

Newt keeps improving! I just added the ability to add your own LLM to it which adds features like researching an article further, proof reading your post (not writing it) and asking general questions that will pull content from your feed to help supplement the answer. newt.page/u/samwichgam...

I soft launched my app newt.page so i haven’t been talking about ut much but i just wanted to share this moment as it was exactly why i made it. It felt so rewarding that what i made worked for me. It may not be the next reddit, but I ❤️ Newt newt.page/u/samwichgam...

It’s wild that I love @realinfowars.bsky.social Wtf is happening with my reality, @theonion.com is doing good in this world.

The new #siri in iOS 27 is actually… good? I mean good enough at least, I can discuss a topic and it follows along and is helpful. Maybe it’s a low bar in this world of Claude and Gemini but it’s really nice!

My newest app is almost ready! So excited for it!

If I could have one semi useless superpower it would be the ability to unzip anyone’s fly. If I’m losing an argument, *ziiiip* and you automatically lose because I can point out your fly is undone.

It’s wild how much faster #Mac OS 27 feels on my M4 Mini. Honestly the beta feels better than 26 ever did.

I just started using #GitHub Actions to auto deploy images to #Docker Hub and I feel so dumb for not doing this previously. It may take a little bit longer then building locally but having it done automatically is fantastic.

I've been going crazy on some #homelab projects lately. My latest is called BayWatch which is a docker app that monitors drives, location in drive bays, federation, external exporting of data and lots more. I'm loving how the design is turning out!

Why does the #ios ui change so much when selecting an item? I get the color change but it can get shorter with tighter curvature. Such an odd choice.

I’m honestly surprised the US doesn’t have some arcane measurement for battery percentage. Like we measure it by years with a full battery being the average life of a man in 1870 living in Pennsylvania. “Yeah, I have 59 years, I’m fully charged!”

Instagram needs a way to tell ad makers you already own their product. I love Quadlock, I probably don’t need ads for it still. Can’t I just verify that I already got it?

I do not understand how I never have the right cable. I swear, if I need an hdmi to hdmi cable, all I will find is hdmi to usb c, hdmi to display port, hdmi to a 25pin printer cable. If I realize I actually need that hdmi to usb c though magically it'll be replaced with 20 hdmi to hdmi cables.

I’m not saying we should, but if ever chain wallets could be useful it would be right now. Hook those bad boys to our $1000 phones that we’re constantly dropping and they finally make sense. Little bungie cords cases.

Add this to the list of signs I don’t understand. “This door must remain closed at all times” It’s a door, and specifically this was on an exit door for some stairs. Can I open it just long enough to leave the building?

I just noticed that ChatGPT names files like humans do. First draft was "partner_config", second draft was "full_partner_config", final version was "final_full_partner_config". I'm assuming the next version would be "USE_THIS_ONE_final_full_partner_config"

What search engines are you all using? I've been switching between @kagi.com, Duck Duck Go and Brave search. I really love Braves visual flair but all three seem to fit my needs. To decide on one I'd love some thoughts and unique features. I'm going to start digging through features for now.

Due to Trump's actions I directly know multiple people that have lost jobs due to contracts being lost or the projects being frozen. It really feels like we might start feeling the impact of this and the Tariffs sooner rather than later. I wish we'd gone a different direction.

My company started using a new timesheet solution and evidently, in 2025 it doesn't automatically save so I lost all of last weeks timesheets.

This year’s focus is minimizing what I do so I can be more focused on family, self, specific hobbies and work in that order. I’ve been hanging out with my boys 1:1 more, finishing projects and being mindful about learning new things and moving my body. It’s really hard but I’m excited.
