The implication is that you should only be dirt poor, or superyacht rich. There should be no middle.
This is what the rich want, and are using their money to enforce.

If you post a photo to Facebook, you see this message "posting... keep Facebook open"
Twice now I've immediately pressed the home button, "closing" facebook. It still posts fine, in the background.
This just seems to be Meta trying to keep you on facebook longer. Just demanding you stay on FB.

I got this model kit for Christmas. Its a bunch of laser cut parts you assemble, and it sits between books on a bookshelf. Fun to build and a cool final model. Also a reminder of our holiday in Japan.

Watched Yesterday, again (with my daughter). It's a good movie, Himesh Patel is excellent.
Ed Sheeran is in it, playing Ed Sheeran, which he is somehow very bad at.

If you publish a PDF with information in it, that information isn't redacted. Maybe you attempted to draw black squares also, good for you. But you published the information.
Even if it's metadata hidden inside the file, you still published the information.

It’s been a while but just a note; if a pdf of scanned documents once contained OCRd text, and if the displayed bitmap part was edited to blacken out the pixels in the scan - sometimes the original OCR text is just sitting there inside the pdf. Drop it in a text or hex editor, run strings etc.

Trying to spend my money with intention, rather than whatever is easiest. Conscious consumption, I guess.
So that means less kindle reading, fuck Amazon, and more paper books. Plus this matches my shirt.

@kottke.org I saw you reposted Machine With Concrete on your blog. 15 years ago I made one out of lego, and filmed it in a similar style to Ganson's original video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=MA7k...

My work bought us Christmas hams, which I appreciate. This afternoon I will be carrying it home on public transport (with ice packs etc).
If there are sniffer dogs, I'm gonna get locked the fuck up.

I used Edge as a browser. I started when it got vertical tabs, which I liked. Other browsers since adopted vertical tabs, but I stayed with Edge.
Yesterday, a new UI element popped up in the wrong place "Search with Copilot", and I accidentally clicked on it.
