You see this being true in so many spaces. Vehicles trying to reinvent climate control, streaming trying to reinvent media consumption, voice control for things that need one button press, etc. it’s so frustrating to see us take 5 steps sideways and 2 steps back in the name of “innovation”.
My crankiest belief is that we are now being sold on solutions to problems which only exist because we've let others convince us they exist. That is what "innovation" seems to be in 2025.

There's a level of introspection that's just not happening these days re: what actually needs to bother us.

It never made sense for any Indian person in the US to support a movement whose self-stated purpose is to ethnically cleanse the US of Indian people.🙂🙃

I mean, it never made sense for anyone to join an ethnic cleansing movement. But to sign up to ethnically cleanse yourself? That's extra special.

Wrote a little tool a couple of weeks ago to fix a frustrating workflow when using #audiobookshelf and libro.fm.

Well, you might be wondering why I'm new again. Turns out the PDS docker container has an unusual environment variable setup and my data didnt write to disk 😜 Updated my post about it:

Self Hosting Bluesky PDS with Docker-Compose and Traefik
Update 11/26/2024: Added PDS_DATA_DIRECTORY environment variable to compose.yml. The installer.sh script in the pds repo unusually aliases PDS_DATADIR to this for actually binding the volume.
