I have just got an ad on my Amazon Echo. I want to throw it in the window.
It’s raining again. Just saying.
Windows 11’s taskbar is bad. If I have more than one Chrome window, I need to make two clicks to switch to one of them. Every extra click adds up. There are no visual indicators that I have multiple Chrome windows. I can use Alt+Tab, but I am talking about the taskbar. Also, it i…
If your item was stolen and the police were not able to resolve the crime, the government should return sales tax you paid for the item. My reasoning is that we pay taxes for schools, roads, fire departments, and police. If the police cannot do their job, we should get money back…
How come ‘Using paper is killing trees’ shifted to ‘using paper is saving turtles’? (khm paper straws)
Senior software engineers don’t cringe at bad code.

I had suspected something fishy with my new Apple Magic Touchpad. I checked the polling rate, and it was only 100 Hz. Apple, why? All this month, I thought something was wrong with my fingers. Why are you saving pennies on a $150 product? I know why. You hate your customers.

Linux Kernel 6.6 was released two days ago. You know what that means? Linux Kernel 6.6.6 is coming soon. I am planning to celebrate the release at the small family gathering with candles.

Lately, I discovered glances - a really nice-looking substitute for the top tool.

Long COVID update: Chest pain is gone. I thought it was the main reason why I couldn’t make myself do things. And I feel normal, but still can’t make myself work. Strange, but at least there’s no pain.
