Welcome back to the time of year when my OCD is triggered every time someone tries to schedule a meeting with me in "EST."

I propose referring to "open-core" software as "open-sore" -- it will intentionally bleed you unless you pay for the enterprise version.

Engineering,

My calisthenics program has a problem. Instead of proper opponents the holodeck is only creating cartoon ponies.

China: “Remove all VPNs”

China: “…and also hand over all iCloud data for our citizens”
Apple: “I mean why wouldn’t we? Here you go!”

EU: “Allow alternate app stores, and do it fairly”
Apple: “Ahhh hell no! This is so unfair you guys are bullies! Malware! Privacy! We have standards! Unlike you we care about our users!”

During the day I'm all "gender is a social construct, you can be whoever you like, your anatomy does not define you!"

But then I put on my other hat to help my local baseball association with registrar duties and go full sadpanda as I sift through questionnaires with questions like "would your daughter like to join the all-girls team?"

Sigh. And this is especially stupid for baseball, because such gender modalities like muscles and aggressiveness have almost zero impact on how good a player is, especially for younger kids.

The worst part of my System76 Lemur laptop is the horrendously poor design of the arrow keys. You will notice how PgUp and PgDn are immediately adjacent to the left and right arrow key, but they are also identical to the touch, so whenever I have to edit something that's not in vim, I end up jumping to some random part of the page half the time.

Yes, I have now remapped them to be arrow keys as well, but I really shouldn't have to do that. 😤

The "ad" in "ad-revenue model" stands for "anxiety-driven."

Periodic reminder that as long as birth certificates have a "gender" section, then your government is literally running a children's genital registry.

NTS: before getting frustrated that ntp is refusing to set the correct time on the server, maybe check if it's actually your laptop that has a 30-minute clock skew...
