man I miss shitty photoshop sometimes. it was much funnier to imagine future archaeologists hunched over an image trying to count the pixels as the ancient texts warned them to seek out falsehood

Yeah, one of the wildest things about getting older for me has been realizing how little time it takes for stuff to become childhood memories for people in their 20s

We are hard-wired to accept most things that most people say as truthful because the density of lies in the world is, or was, relatively low Now we need to fact-check every sentence, image and video. The friction added is hideous

Yeah, both of the hinges on my WH-1000XM5s snapped, and I was pretty underwhelmed by some of the changes coming from the XM3s. I've switched to XM4s for now because I wasn't in the mood to experiment, but it's looking pretty unlikely that my next pair will be a Sony

A reason why people who develop products like the idea of surveilling users in order to know them well enough to figure out what they want so they can provide it is that they didn't do the work up front of figuring out what people want.

dear all developers including the OneDrive team; if you abuse application notifications to send me marketing messages ('find out how such & such works' is marketing) you *will* lose notification privileges and your app will probably be slightly less useful and might get replaced by one that doesn't

“You have to give up your privacy & anonymity online because there’s just nothing we can do about the open web getting bait-and-switched into an unregulated global social experiment that gamifies the worst behaviors of humanity for the profit of two billionaire freaks” is just not a great pitch.

even if it was good policy, this shit is completely ancillary to the goal of actually limiting the power of big tech. Elon Musk has a trillion dollars and is trying to start a global race war, your response to that can’t be “kids should be on their phones less”

At least that part sounds theoretically fixable. I've lived in places where you can just decide to install a mini-split unit (provided you own your house/apartment), and it's... fine? The idea of straight-up not being allowed to do that is absurd to me

This weekend DoorDash tweeted about the World Cup but repeatedly tagged T-Pain, as if they were mixing him up with NZ soccer player Tim Payne. T-Pain got in on it too, acting confused. Turns out it was all a "partnership." No ad disclosure on any of the posts. www.theverge.com/news/954145/...
T-Pain on X: "Are you all okay??? @DoorDash stop tagging me in these soccer posts."
T-Pain: "I liiterally don't play soccer" quoting DoorDash saying "@TPain you gave everything out there tonight. we saw it."
T-Pain: The intern is gonna shit a brick when they realize. Quoting DoorDash saying "This is when the true goats show up @tpain the game is in your hands!"

If we only give glory to people who fix manifestly bad situations and don't find a way to get hyped on maintenance and prevention, then we are truly cooked. We need the Y2K Awards or something.

You have to be able to deal with assholes if you want anything resembling a healthy community, and there's no way to define upfront what does and doesn't constitute "asshole behavior"

I'm not saying this doesn't happen, but the fundamental issue here is there isn't really a way to do community moderation that doesn't involve a substantial amount of subjective vibe checking

the struggle of having ever moderated any online community is you now cannot go through any community without being like, oh, they should ban this person. this person hasn't done anything wrong yet but the vibes are off and you should ban the shit out of them.

social media that's bad for minors is obviously bad for adults too. crazy to me that the move seems to be to just accept that and ban minors rather than regulate the obvious design patterns that were put in there on purpose which make it harmful to its users

When you start noticing it, it’s astonishing how many people who claim air conditioning is wasteful and extravagant would never, ever apply that logic to heating (which uses more resources than AC!)

Cosmic horror is great because it just kinda invents itself. Spend a bit too long thinking about the sun and you realize it’s a radioactive death ball larger than your mind has capacity to comprehend, so inherently dangerous that looking directly at it will harm you, and it’s just sitting there.
