James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 04/10/2026Over a week of begrudgingly turning my Xbox on about half of the time I usually would because of this absolutely horrendous mini game and specific task in it. Finally, FINALLY!, hit it immediately after a run that was off by 10 points. Throw this in the trash where it belongs! 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 18/09/2026These @partifulapp.bsky.social people are taking the stupid to the next level. Not only are they tying accounts to an identifier that is NOT UNIQUE and is regularly re-issued, they are opening up that identifier to data leaks. In other words, anyone that drops their number can have their history... 100
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 18/09/2026The fact that I had to use this cheese technique and map to accomplish this says everything one needs to know about the terrible design of this game. gamerant.com/ff7-final-fa... 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 16/09/202631 years ago today, one of the greatest movies of all time was released. Today, they’re trashing our rights even more than ever. Hack the planet! 030
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 24/08/2026The nonsense this industry comes up with. ARR => _ANNUAL_ Recurring Revenue. But they have $1MM ARR in less than a year? GTFO 010
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 07/08/2026I haven’t done that, but there’s a road in Atlanta that literally has two 90° turns within 15’ of each other. Cars park on the street there. I was going through about two weeks ago and a Waymo came from the other direction. I was red, it was yellow, in the pic. 1/2 110
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 29/07/2026I'm actively trying to organize and clean out my photos library. I used to take pictures of bad parking. I have deleted a lot of them, and will delete these, but these two have to be shared with the world before I do so. 010
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 29/07/2026This succinctly captures everything I despise about “go vote” calls. No one that says such actually wants you to vote. They want you to vote their way. Selecting “none of these wastes of air” is a perfectly valid vote. But they’d still are trying to shame you into thinking otherwise. 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 10/07/2026@nebula.tv please let me disable this up next screen. I want it to go back to the screen I was on when I started the video I just watched. As it was for years. (AppleTV app) 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 27/04/2026At least they are on top of getting the models back in action 😒 010
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 26/04/2026Ignoring the fact that they can’t even do the most basic research on me before trying to sell themselves to me: what in the hell kind of compensation structure is that? I couldn’t give a flying fuck about imaginary “tokens.” I hate this world. 020
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 24/04/2026Way ahead of you, man. OS wouldn’t even be updated if it weren’t for a device requirement. Ditto with my large form factor computers. 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 22/04/2026Let’s count the problems: 1. Never signed up for whatever list this is 2. Actual job description indicates remote people are second class at most 3. Clearly a “hustle” mindset over being realistic 4. Are you kidding with all of those VC names and absolute dregs of society? Nah. I’m good. 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 18/04/2026Not sure about every day, but I genuinely enjoy doing this if the outcome will be objectively better. Just being my version of the code should not be a reason for doing the work. 070
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 12/04/2026They didn’t have to contend with The Connector en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downtow... 020
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 06/04/2026Love this scene. First, and only if I'm not mistaken, time we see this character. Total bad ass. Just "hey look! <wham! wham! wham!>" Stargate Atlantis S05E01 110
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 05/04/2026I should’ve stayed away from the atlsynth.club swap meet today. 030
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 03/04/2026Wow. I couldn’t have thought of a worse way to do this. Thanks. 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 22/03/2026All serve the high speed death boxes! Nothing shall deter their destruction! 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 14/03/2026Now these "companies" are inviting people to have their work/assets stolen. Please end this hell. 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 01/03/2026Dependabot just casts Psychic Scream at maintainers all day every day 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 25/02/2026It's looking like the KeePass storage format is the most viable path forward at the moment. I need Windows, macOS, and iOS support. I don't like companies telling me they need to raise my cost because they just plain want more money. And I don't want "AI" nonsense in my password manager. 110
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 22/02/2026I’m supposed to trust these things when they can’t even report on categorized correctly? 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 15/02/2026Just don't pay any attention to the fact that they sell all text on the site, yes, including text you put there, to at least one LLM developer. 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 03/02/2026The link in this screenshot dumps you on a github.community page. If I'm going to throw text into /dev/null @github.com, I'll just do it here: I hate these alerts and I absolutely hate getting them for repos I never enrolled. I want to turn these annoying things off COMPLETELY 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 03/02/2026Taking a short reprieve from reviewing the Stargate historical archives to continue this vitally important annual tradition 120
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 31/01/2026This speech from Stargate SG-1 S07E18 is disappointingly appropriate for today. 4268
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 28/01/2026You get ONE chance to skip the spam filter when you send a cold email. Don’t be this guy if you want to get through the gate. 010
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 27/01/2026Hilarious. If ever there was a clear case of trademark infringement, it’s these stupid “tools”. I legit thought they were the same thing because I don’t actually pay attention to that scene. 120
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 15/01/2026Please, I beg you, write actual native applications instead of this janky garbage. 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 12/01/2026Be sure to forward the hiring team next time they reject you because your current experience is in a language different from the one the role requires. I’m sure they’ll realize their mistake and change their mind 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 08/01/2026Fuck everything about the non-deterministic pattern matching garbage vomiting waste of the only place we can live brain dead algorithms that plague us in all aspects of life as of a year or two ago 061
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 04/01/2026If it were real, no notes. Perfect response. I wouldn’t have even seen the calls. I put this damn computer brick into do not disturb mode every night and for the _whole_ time I’m not at work, e.g. weekends of varying lengths. 160
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 20/12/2025I can’t figure out why that would be unexpected. There’s a significant difference between direct file access with a cutdown db engine, and going through a full fledged tcp connection to a robust db engine. I dislike MySQL as much as the next person, but this is 🍎 🍎 & 🍊 🍊 000
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 15/12/2025There’s literally no reason for this other than to juice traffic numbers. I think I’ll be fine with one less account. 020
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 28/11/2025As it should. If you want a contract for work to be completed, state that and make a realistic offer. Lowballing through the sponsors program is not acceptable. 020
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 16/11/2025I’m about to 100% the Lego Skywalker Saga after getting back into it with, uh, a bit of a hiatus. That last 60% has taken another month. Probably the coolest thing is the capital ships you acquire and that they show up in the sky of every planet. 100
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 06/11/2025Everyone who agreed to ship iOS 26’s UI owes us all an apology. 🤮 220
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 24/10/2025@vivaldi.com how do I get rid of this tabs dropdown button? I do not like it. The off color is very distracting. 100
James Sumners @james.sumners.info · 23/10/2025Oh yeah, clearly better. 😒 support.1password.com/save-use-pas... 000
