Remember to pop your filter bubble every so often. If you think you're not in one, you're trapped in one and in for a rude awakening.

Someone needs to make & sell removable SSDs openly standardized as 3-inch (7-cm) square wafers, together with removable SSD receivers (internal & built-in on laptops and tablets!), that look & work just like floppy disks & drives from days gone by.

The convenience of USB thumbdrives, without the drawbacks of laptop dongles, tiny & easily lost media, & "Which one of these stupid things did I put the files on!?"-itis.

Pictured: 3-inch square wafers of the past as real-world disks & TV props.

Today, youtuber dzuma made a video about my age verification bypass browser extension.

And since then, I've got a nonstop influx of people downloading the add-on, and it became the mosr starred one on my GitHub in just a matter of hours!

So, thanks a lot!! Glad I'm not the only one who's annoyed by this!

I just fixed a customer's PC from 1,000 miles away 

When trying to open any File Explorer icons, the Windows 11 desktop crashed & restarted. The cause was the KB5095093 update from 2026-06-23.

On uninstall & reboot, Windows 11 reinstalled it & rebooted again. Softing Microfuck.

But just like that, File Explorer worked normally again. 1) W👒​ -but 2) :paw_fx90_crossed_fingers:

USA events, IT infrastructure 

I just realized the USA's Internet infrastructure faces a dual significant threat this weekend. The USA's Independence Day holiday is right smack dab in the middle of one of the USA's largest furry fandom conventions, Anthrocon.

Ever have a day where you cant form any coherent thoughts except maybe by accident?

I think that infertile trans women should be permitted paternity leave to work on their sprawling, self-indulgent twine games about non-penetrative sex and institutional trauma

I just made this silly but accurate thing. I'm silly too and i love it, but also i'm serious in my silliness.

“PIRATING” IS A CAPITALIST FRAME

don’t be a cop.

If buying isn't ownership then p̶i̶r̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ SHARING isn't stealing

If buying doesn't create ownership, then p̶i̶r̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ SHARING doesn't destroy it.

SHARING is anticapitalist and antifa because sharing is caring.

If buying doesn't create ownership, then pirating doesn't destroy it.

I'm sorry, sir, but our website is closed right now.

Please try again tomorrow.

Note that it closes early at the weekend.

I've done 15 minutes of tech support for my family today (they have bought new devices) and I already urge for taking a shotgun to every thing that is connected to the internet.

Holy fuck tech has gotten so fucking bad we all live in a bubble here but the non-techies face man-made horrors beyond comprehension on a daily basis

of course, the most important thing to do when starting a KSP save is to make a bunch of silly logos and flags to put on things
