Fun fact. There was no 2025 MLB season. Anyone that says otherwise is factually incorrect.

I've been grinding to get my four year old laptop back into tip-top shape. It's easy to not neglect maintenance and then feel like you "need" to buy a new machine.
But a little TLC and cleanup can work wonders. Doesn't hurt the wallet either.

Out of pure stubbornness and spite, I've gotten my Capture One library to kinda work. Not looking back from Lightroom.

Listening to a podcast that's absolutely cooking Eight Sleep due to their beds being unusable due to the AWS outage. And rightfully so.
Beds don't need subscriptions.
The market should have suplexed this product from day one. It should have never been allowed to exist.
Don't buy crap like this.

It's starting to feel like our current generation of "smart" products need to replace "smart" with "vulnerable". The recent AWS downtime hits that home more than ever.
Call me bonkers, but I like my coffee mugs, shirts and beds dumb.

Man, iOS 26 is jank. Not opinionated. Not competent, but divisive. Just jank.
I can deal with a design that I don't prefer–as long as it's well executed. I can't say iOS 26's design checks either box.

Well, damn. I gave Cursor a shot to port my old ActionScript 2 layout library (github.com/somerandomdu...) to Javascript.
And, I'll be damned, it seems to be working. I'm excited at the chance of dusting off this library.

It Makes Noise 1.08 is out with new sounds and new sidebar iconography. I finally had to break down and design my own icons. So, you're welcome and/or I'm sorry.

I had a few stray thoughts about my writing app that should simplify the development and increase focus. Excited to carve a few hours to try building it out.
