We should not have to choose between fancy buttons and sensible button behavior. We deserve both!

Demonschool is great, you should go play it. Optionally, you could read my blog post about it. This was probably the hardest post I have written so far. thiem.xyz/demonschool

Yes, I have been staring at an staring at an unedited first draft for 5 hours. No, I did not get any editing done. Anyway, how is your day going?

Discovered String.prototype.blink() and that led me to read a book from 1995 about JavaScript 1.1 in Netscape. That's older than I am and leafing through it was super fun. Even found a page referenced in that book that is still in the state it was in back in 1995. thiem.xyz/string-proto...

String.prototype.blink() and other Netscape fossils

Why is there a String.prototype.blink()? And other questions from 30 years of JavaScript.

Is the game making a joke? Is it a bug? I am the type of person that developers hate. I think the context should make it clear, but my neurons are not firing properly. Loving Nighthawks though. What a game.

Nighthawks is OUT! When the sun sets, outcasts rise. Gather new friends, face old prejudices, and prepare to seize the night in Nighthawks, the vampire RPG where the secret is out... but the hunt continues. Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/1221950/... GOG: www.gog.com/en/game/nigh...

Time to do some vampire stuff because @wadjeteyegames.com told me so. Free will is an illusion.

That doesn’t narrow it down as much as the notification seems to think.

iOS notification:

"Jonas's AirPods Pro" left behind
This device is no longer detected near you. It was last seen near North Atlantic Ocean.

Terminator: Resistance is a super fun AA shooter that we don’t get enough of anymore. People say good things about RoboCop and that will probably be my next pick up.

This has potential, no?

Four-panel meme: the top-left shows a Bluesky sidebar with one notification, the top-right shows a jackdaw looking interested. The bottom-left shows the notfication "somerandombot.bsky.social followed you” and the bottom-right shows the bird looking annoyed at the camera.

Even with Steam dominating and physical media having been dead on PC for a long time. The openness of the platform itself allows things to be less dire than an PlayStation ecosystem without physical media.

You should play Citizen Sleeper.

After having gone all my life using headphones at my PC, I have heard the light. Speakers are great.

Is it AI psychosis if I see the numbers Ed Zitron released and think "oh, that’s not as bad as I thought?"

I have been following Apples dislike for the EU‘s DMA for a while now. Their communication is interesting. Very … aggressive? Not how companies usually express disdain. The arguments around why Siri AI needs to be delayed in the EU felt sloppier than most. straynotes.xyz/blog/siri-ai...

Siri AI: safe for me, dangerous for thee

Apple says EU rules make Siri AI too dangerous to launch. Its proposed security solution suggests a less flattering explanation.

Whenever I write anything I get hit by this wave of uncertainty. Like no matter how much time I spend thinking, researching, and writing could ever make me even somewhat certain that what I created was correct and good enough. Happening on this post right now. Love that for me.

After hitting 99 sailing with essentially only salvaging, I still want to max out some of my ships and see the other things sailing has to offer. Time to pray for some frost dragon tasks. #osrs #newskill #whyhellhoundagainpleasestop

Coming up with good names for variables and functions is hard, but the final boss of naming things are css classes.

From everything I have seen Grace will make an awesome protagonist in RE9.

Nintendo's legal antics make them my least favorite video game company by far. Other companies make bad video games with awful monetazation schemes. Nintendo just isn't satisfied with this industry standard and sends their lawyers to make sure that everyone knows they are extra unlikeable.

Factorio teaches us that shitty, non-scalable designs are both fine and scale better than you think they would. #dev

The idea that you have to get more out of your free time than just enjoyment is incredibly destructive.

Now that they are metal dragon tasks and not steel dragon tasks, I feel obligated to do rune dragons. But steel dragons are so much more comfy 🙁 #osrs

When Apple fails with the iPhone Air they will go back to making minis, right? Right? I don’t have a backup plan for when my iPhone 13 mini gives up.

Working on cool ideas always sounds better in my head than it is in reality. Actually working means learning all the difficulties that come with it. It’s strange. I am further along than I was when it was just an idea in my head, but the goal seems further out.

Getting Python running in the browser through WASM is kinda cool. My dream would be combining it with Flask to create an interactive course in the browser. Just gotta find the time.
