Macs are great when they work, and infuriating when you get these generic messages telling you something went wrong.

Image of an error message saying Time Machine couldn't complete the backup but without any explanation of what went wrong.

So 2 years ago I installed docker via `snap` and it took me a while to realize it can't see into my ZFS storage pools because snap is kinda like a vm. Just finally uninstalled docker and reinstalled it with apt and it now can see the storage drives. :tada:

Last week I got hit by an AI bot on #ebay. It sent lots of questions in the middle of the night, bought the item, and then demanded price reductions. After 10 years on ebay with a perfect feedback, I have my first negative dropping my score to a 90%. AI might be the end of selling on ebay for me.

Am I missing any #android tablets that can magnetically mount to a stand, it feels like ipad air/pro are the only ones with this. There is one Google pixel tablet but it literally costs as much as the ipad...

I switched away from Chrome to Firefox a while ago and mostly have no issue with sites. Except today I went to add 2FA to snapchat and figured it would be easier to scan the QR on a separate device. Turns out they block firefox.

snapchat dialog saying firefox is not support - only chrome or safari

I built this tool to solve a monitoring issue at work, but also because I was tired of always having to google which flags gets the expiration date with openssl cli tool. www.checkssl.org

checkssl.org

checkssl - simple open source command line ssl tool

checkssl is a simple tool that is CI friendly for checking public and private server SSL certificates for expiration, domains, TLS and HTTP versions.
