Sigh. FedEx delivered a package to me that requires signature... without ringing the bell or asking for a signature. If I wasn't home, that would have been a problem. ☹️

Don't get me wrong, I love flying into @schiphol. But always being dumped on the far end in the E gates makes the trek to connect really painful. I wish the @delta gates were closer to the center of the airport.

What is old is new again. Forty years ago in the Computer Chronicles, people were talking about disappointments with AI. And of course, the result was an AI winter until the 2000s.

To celebrate the end of the year, I've completed one of the biggest ticket items I've had in a while: I've made a brand new PackageKit backend for Linux distributions using DNFF version 5.

Feel free to join in the fun!

I donated to @kdecommunity just a little more this year because of how much I appreciate the software I use every day. Especially Elisa, the music app that made me love music apps again for the first time in years!

If you appreciate KDE, you can donate too […]

I went and saw Wicked: For Good earlier this week and I was so impressed by the film. It was everything I remembered of childhood movies, made better. The story, the music, and the cast were amazing!

If you haven't seen it, go see it and Wicked too!

Watching the Doctor Who Proms 2024 recording on YouTube just reminds me why the Eleventh Doctor remains my favorite Doctor and how he got me through my college years...

It really sucks that because web standards have crappy subtitling features, legal anime subs are decreasing in quality to fit those crappy systems. 😦

Weirdest thing I saw today: a promo that involved highlighting @bestbuy as a merchant on @ubereats... for purchasing electronics. On a food delivery service.

There's less than 24 hours left to watch "Detective Conan: The Darkest Nightmare" on @youtube for free courtesy of @tmsanime! After that, it'll be gone and replaced with another Conan movie. If you haven't watched it yet, now's your chance!

Huh. @netflix has Detective Conan again. And it has a new English dub! Seems like they're dubbing select plot-relevant episodes...
