Instagram needs a way to tell ad makers you already own their product. I love Quadlock, I probably don’t need ads for it still. Can’t I just verify that I already got it?

I do not understand how I never have the right cable. I swear, if I need an hdmi to hdmi cable, all I will find is hdmi to usb c, hdmi to display port, hdmi to a 25pin printer cable.
If I realize I actually need that hdmi to usb c though magically it'll be replaced with 20 hdmi to hdmi cables.

Wild that this is an actual thing.
Today, Trump sold out the young people of America and future generations.
He will give the fossil fuel industry the unrestricted ability to release carbon emissions and accelerate the existential threat of climate change.
How much in campaign contributions is that worth?

I’m not saying we should, but if ever chain wallets could be useful it would be right now.
Hook those bad boys to our $1000 phones that we’re constantly dropping and they finally make sense.

Add this to the list of signs I don’t understand.
“This door must remain closed at all times”
It’s a door, and specifically this was on an exit door for some stairs. Can I open it just long enough to leave the building?

I just noticed that ChatGPT names files like humans do. First draft was "partner_config", second draft was "full_partner_config", final version was "final_full_partner_config". I'm assuming the next version would be "USE_THIS_ONE_final_full_partner_config"

What search engines are you all using? I've been switching between @kagi.com, Duck Duck Go and Brave search.
I really love Braves visual flair but all three seem to fit my needs. To decide on one I'd love some thoughts and unique features.
I'm going to start digging through features for now.

Due to Trump's actions I directly know multiple people that have lost jobs due to contracts being lost or the projects being frozen. It really feels like we might start feeling the impact of this and the Tariffs sooner rather than later.
I wish we'd gone a different direction.

This year’s focus is minimizing what I do so I can be more focused on family, self, specific hobbies and work in that order.
I’ve been hanging out with my boys 1:1 more, finishing projects and being mindful about learning new things and moving my body.
It’s really hard but I’m excited.
