• I was invalidname on Twitter, left 2 yrs ago.
• People followed me there b/c I wrote tech books for macOS/iOS. I work @ 🍏 now, so I can’t post about secret work stuff.
• Seems like I’m mostly engaging with anime people here. Tech on Mastodon, and replies only on Threads.

We warmed up into the high 40s today and my EV’s estimated range went *up* as I drove it, presumably as a result of better chemical performance than it has experienced in the last few months of bitter cold.

Oh man, I still need to watch seasons 2 through 4 of Shoresy.
Shoresy is so much funnier and more heartfelt than dour monologues about hockey philosophy—so why not show it off? www.avclub.com/shoresy-seas...
Here are two clips from Shoresy season 5 that sell it way better than Hulu's new trailer

I really hope they’re bringing DOA to Switch 2 as well. We’ve been dying for a free-3D-movement fighting game on Switch, although Virtua Fighter should sate that thirst a little bit.

Yikes here are the numbers for the past 12 months. Everything is pretty much dead except healthcare/social assistance. Note that healthcare growth is largely not about the business cycle -- it's about the aging of the population and more elderly people needing care.

The thing with these 70s American TV cartoons is that every episode is basically the same, something you don’t notice when they’re only on once a week, but once you watch more than two at a time it becomes instantly obvious.
Coming March 31st from Warner Archive:
SCOOBY'S ALL STAR LAFF-A-LYMPICS: The Complete Series (1977-1978) MSRP: $24.98 24 episodes Running Time: 550 Minutes

The Supreme Court Lives in Fox News' America
A Court that does not share a common factual world with the people it governs is untethered from democratic reality.
