ugh, i keep my apps in ~/Applications so as to keep the systemwide /Applications not needed to be backed up. Then I just back up $HOME/. The problem is if I exclude $HOME from spotlight indexing, it won't let me command-space launch apps in ~/Applications.

i have placed 469 amazon orders in the last 90 days. i think perhaps that's too many

was just about to reimplement updatedb/locate with shell scripts and grep but then realized i could just install locate

What is the best android youtube client? Ideally with sponsorblock support and with no play services requirement

the backblaze b2 cli reports file transfer speeds in <prefix>bytes/sec. the convention for bandwidth is bits/sec. why

shop.app (processor for drop.com) sends a "track your order from $SELLERNAME" emails, but it doesn't include a tracking number - just a "download our app to track!" ad.

fuck you and fuck your spam.
