I always forget to disconnect my headphones from my PC and they drive me nuts trying to reconnect in the living room so I wrote a script to find all audio Bluetooth devices and disconnect them and set up a shortcut on my phone to ssh in and run it it brings me far more joy than it should #linux

am I missing something or is the complexity of maintaining Kubernetes wildly overblown? I keep hearing you need a whole team for it. but at this point I'm running k3s on my Linux desktop just cuz Docker is kind of obnoxious now I keep wanting to use k8s for smaller projects and I get push back

The thing about grief is that you eventually return to ‘normal life,’ but still feel so far from your ‘normal self.’ It’s a terrible feeling. Wanting to be present and enjoy the moment, yet feeling unable to.

reading a book about china. apparently the government there has sent federal forces into cities, taken shares of major private enterprises, slapped tariffs on industries, and pressured media outlets to fire people they politically disagreed with. didn’t know this.

Korean networks and dailies have noted that families and friends who greeted the returning workers remarked that they had lost a lot of weight and seemed to have aged. The workers were worried most about a pregnant woman who was detained with them. She got a first class seat on the flight home.

korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

Their waists and hands were tied together, forcing them to bend down and lick water to drink. The unscreened bathrooms contained only a single sheet to cover their lower bodies. Sunlight barely penetrated through a fist-sized hole, and they were only allowed access to the small yard for two hours. Detained by US immigration authorities for eight days, the workers and their families expressed shock, describing human rights violations and absurdities they could not have imagined as ordinary Koreans living in 2025.

luigi mangione murdered a healthcare executive and opposed "wokeism." i don't know why people insist that killers need some coherent ideology. most people don't even have coherent wardrobes, let alone a coherent worldview.

I have lots to say and I am convincing myself to say as little as possible, but I don't think a society that has been absolutely saturated in unavoidable looping videos of snuff films for a decade is one that can hold. Power will and has coalesced around those who best weaponize the snuff films.
