I've only been using a mac at work for 1.5 years so I'd been saying I can't tell if Tahoe made anything worse, but apparently they did break the one thing I was speaking highly of last year.

I have two external screens and every morning when I reconnected and woke up the machine, all windows were placed back on their old positions, this hardly works now. Kinda sad, having to drag my IDE windows back every morning, and sometimes other apps as well.

AI image generation is great for if you want your branding to look like it's for a 2013 free-to-play mobile game called something like "Reign of Kingdoms: Clash Wars".

The data from your Meta Ray Bans is used to train Meta's AI, which most people don't understand means that humans are looking at the most intimate details of their lives. svd.se/a/K8nrV4/metas-ai-smart

13 months ago I started a simple TODO list on my wiki just for server maintenance at first, but it has become a nice little work log of all programming projects, technical problems I solved, and actual server maintenance and recently also "I want to try out XYZ".

I don't think I'd ever managed to keep a list like this before, it's cool.

I wasn’t convinced Claude could really replace me until I watched it trigger fail2ban while configuring fail2ban and lock itself out, just like I would have. 🫡

i'm just going to say this: i remember when Linux could cheerfully run a GUI and a web browser in 64MB RAM. for all people like to say "oh, but web browsers did less then", they had CSS, JavaScript and multimedia capabilities by the turn of the century (the timescale i'm talking about). they also had XSLT, Flash and Java, and they could read email and news, and connect to FTP servers (and i think gopher servers too). so much for "they do so much more now". no, they really don't - they just make a hell of a mountain out of a rather smaller molehill.

It's not that I don't think rtings deserves money, I'm just wondering how much hardware you need to buy in a typical year that 10$ per month or 45$ per year is *good value*. I don't think I usually do that.

“I wish it need not have repro'd on my machine,” said Frodo.

“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to run such builds.”
