iOS engineer at eBay. He/Him. Started my career in the 80s at The Voyager Company working on laserdisc and CD-ROM interfaced HyperCard stacks. Shipped QuickTime video at launch. Bad puns are the best. All posts are mine and do not represent my employer.
I love my two U300s. The front door also has a level lock. It would be nice if they were the same lock, but a scene helps with that. Our bolt has been ok.

When we build, I’m definitely installing the U400s during construction.

I'm so glad we are doing this "pretend you are moving" exercise without being under the stress of moving.

I am able to donate more, install organization for the stuff I actually need, and this will inform our house build requirements.

It’s going to be so easy to ship dictionaries in the future as Incompetence will just point to anything done by this administration.

Trump and Miller do not want peace - They want power. "Peace" in their eyes is everyone forced to do their bidding.

The U.S. Coast Guard has paved the way for the I-5 bridge replacement, allowing Washington and Oregon to build a fixed span bridge. This has overwhelming support from the maritime industry, businesses, and community groups.

I sent a screenshot. Force quitting the app and relaunching now shows the content. I don’t know which filter blocked it.

Apps and websites in general are frustrating because they do not often suggest passwords due to a mismatch. I had to add bsky.social to get the sign in view to autofill. I had bsky.app in there from their app I guess. Annoying.

Sure I will check it out, thanks! I also read with Tapestry and post with Croissant. I also use BlueSky on the Vision Pro sometimes

I agree. Let's drop the term paywall. Everything has a paywall. Sometimes it's awful ads that put literal walls of shit over the content.

Pay for the content you want. Stop complaining when someone asks to be paid.

Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal warns ICE:

"No law enforcement professional wears a mask... Those that come into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime... You getting arrested".

They cannot spell and their grammar is awful, so that says quite a bit.

Kristi Noem is a multiple-murderer.

People who support her are complicit.
