i used to hate .webp, mostly because mac's Preview app refused to annotate those, so i had to convert to .png first in order to edit my memes. then i switched to #Linux, where we have ✨ Gwenview ✨ which will annotate whatever!

now im indifferent about .webp 😌

Whoever decided to build network capability for adb deserves a raise tbh. Extremely useful. I have so much trouble getting it to work over USB for my Nvidia Shield but over TCP it works flawlessly!

also TIL that it has a dev mode, and telnet!
