I have a glass roof but live in Los Angeles, though I’ve spent time in the Arizona desert. Honestly, I never thought about it.

…and Other Obvious Facts by Captain Obvious

I was about to buy an eGolf right before they yanked it off the market. These gigantic Tesla-adjacent vehicles are disgusting.

Yeah, that would be pretty fantastic. But at least in the US just take a look at ACH.

Which is hilarious because Atlassian sites (yes, even the white label ones) look like shit.

I used to have a manager who’d tell you to do exactly what you were already doing in the moment. Like if you were sweeping she’d say something like “hey, could you sleep the floor?”

I’m vegan now, but when I was still new to Los Angeles it always bothered me that other transplants would eat at McDonald’s. Imagine moving thousands of miles away from your shit hole town only to eat at McDonald’s — you’ve got every option imaginable at the same price or less.

I agree with all of this but I’ll add that email and SMS-based 2FA needs to disappear. It’s not secure, it’s time-consuming and we should be using Passkeys by now.

I’m a web developer that blocks Google and I push for this at work a lot — let’s serve our assets from our own server! — can’t stand the bullshit either.

How about an :empty CSS selector that works even if there’s some white space in the element’s inner HTML?

FIDO2, Passkeys or whatever you want to call Webauthn.

Seriously I’m so burned out on glitchy forms that can’t even get the most basic username, password fields right and want to fight autocomplete all day, and I don’t want SMS-based 2FA or the absolute worst, “mAgIC LiNKs.” 🥴

Fuck.

There’s always some awesome banking startups that have incredible features but then they get bought out after a few years.

At this point I almost want to work on an “open bank” concept and release it into the world for free so that new banks actually start off with great features. 😆

Hard agree.

While I agree that this administration is crazy incompetent, this is the recent ICE leak as reported by 404 Media back on August 14th.

“enjoy your paving over your rose garden, your 200 million dollar ballroom in the White House, and your gaudy ass gold spray painted trinkets from Home Depot, cause he ain’t spending any money on helping YOU unless you fit into his white supremacist country club rich idiot agenda.”

Great suggestion though I had to research them because I’ve never heard of the organization.

Maybe when it comes to social issues but when I read OP’s post I think of climate change and how it seems to be worsening at an increasing pace.

I kind of very much dislike this line of thinking. Debian and Ubuntu are full of shit and cause an astronomical amount of bloat when containerized or running in production on a server.

I switched to Alpine quite a long time ago and run it on servers, in containers and on my own networking equipment. I don’t miss Debian’s slow as hell updates nor Ubuntu’s Microsoft-style bloat.

I have to deal with all this cruft a lot at work and I always ask myself “why?” It’s super frustrating, it slows everything down and after sprinkling in more “we don’t care about efficiency” attitudes you suddenly find yourself trying to deploy 15GB containers.

We should aim to do better.

Are you referring to mealie-recipes/mealie?

I’m legit confused by this meme. Is it talking about those executables that Windows users download and run willy-nilly?
