The only reason I ever even tried “Outlook (new)” was because the old Microsoft “Mail” app was trash (the piece of shit wouldn’t even let me send plain text email). I immediately lost interest as soon as I realized there was a bunch of 365 shit bundled into it that I couldn’t disable.

If Microsoft wants more RAM just to do AI shit on my computer, I’d rather have even less just to make sure they cant.

I’ve gotten back into Minecraft lately, after not playing it at all for at least a year. I finally reached a couple major milestones, like defeating the Enderdragon and obtaining netherite scraps (still don’t have any netherite equipment yet–obtaining smithing templates is a real pain). Playing on a couple SMP servers has also motivated me to put actual effort into beautifying my bases, rather than just living in a tiny wooden shack I made on day one or two.

The Mozilla Foundation did a tech podcast called IRL. It hasn’t updated in nearly a year, and I don’t know if it’s ever coming back, but some of their back episodes are worth listening to.

If I can’t watch YouTube without ads, I won’t watch it at all.

I own an Android, and I was not aware of this feature. I checked my settings, and it appears that the countdown was turned off by default. Does that mean the SOS feature was disabled, or that it would activate instantly with no countdown? Because the latter would definitely increase the risk of false alarms.

Lately, I’ve been obsessed with Into The Breach, a mecha vs kaiju strategy game by the developers of FTL. It’s surprisingly challenging, and more similar to chess than any other strategy computer game I’ve played before.

I would encourage you to stay as far away from Raddle as possible. It has an incredibly toxic site-wide culture, and some serious security problems.

Reddit’s plans—driven by an urge to make the company more profitable as it inches toward going public

Correction: Reddit’s plan is driven by an urge to make the company profitable.

It’s wack how the internet seems to have collectively forgotten about this technology over the past decade, despite it not being the least bit obsolete.
