the iphone 13 is when apple jumped the shark.

CNN is the QVC of the MSM

ugh for fuck's sake bitten again by the "computer remembers wifi network password in NVRAM even after drive wipe" bullshit. fuck.

lightroom is such a stinking turd and yet there is no better alternative :(

most of the time i think the nyt are shitbags and weep for the tragedy that is the fall from grace of the paper of record. then a small fraction of the time they run stuff like they did today. the content and timing could not be more perfect.

at least the nyt is putting the us military slaughtering a half-dozen innocent children as their top story for fucking once. they're also running a story just below it about how the us is still fighting wars in a handful of other countries that we just never bothered to declare, using the same deceit and violence that is on full display as they lie blatantly and openly about the last drone missile in afghanistan.

signal desktop has built-in RCE for the signal devs and also takes for fucking ever to start up because apparently it loads all message history evar into ram or something? why does it think it needs to do that?

it's very unfortunate that apple doesn't make wired keyboards any longer.

the performative wokeness (with zero actual social justice impact) cancer has reached git now in 2.28, as it doesn't have a program-wide default for the default branch - you have to pick.

now your stupid (and useless) wokeness performances are costing me time and energy. :(

in other news 10.12 sierra on this imac 5k from 2015 with an upgrade to 40gb ram is downright fucking snappy

the official apple download links for installers for 10.10 yosemite, 10.11 el capitan, and 10.12 sierra are insecure http links:

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211683

fun fact: the app store app in sierra (10.12) that is the internet recovery os for imac17,1 will let you download installers for high sierra, mojave, catalina, and big sur without an apple id. archiving them now

the american habit of making breakfast an unmitigated carb orgy is both tragic and maddening

worst part about middle age ain't the aches and pains or the fatigue or young girls thinking i'm a creep when i smirk at them - it's the part where my friends are slowly dying off. i anticipate this curve will get steeper, too.
