Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge?
It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

Australia next?
Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users.
While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.

New blog post: I'm never going back to Matrix

I'm never going back to Matrix
I should love Matrix. It is a decentralised, privacy preserving, multi-platform chat tool. Goodbye Slack and your ridiculous free limits. Adiós Discord and your weird gamification. Suck it IRC with your obscure syntax and faint stench of BO. WhatsApp and Telegram can stick their heads in a bucket of lukewarm sick and sing sea shanties! Let's join the future! The problem is - Matrix is shit. Not …

Applying for a US presa visa right now and this message is on the top of every page. I wonder if they know about the existence of Mastodon, lol.
Anyway, long live the American leaders who have never done anything wrong and are flawless in every way.
Wish me luck 🤞🤞🤞

One of the worst parts of this AI craze is looking at a video of a super skilled artist and seeing 50% of the comments below accusing them of being fake. It took only a few years to persuade people that skill doesn't exist. How bleak.

My overarching theory about AI art is that almost everyone building it assumes you have no taste — you don’t care if things are good or creative or even terrible. They think that all things need to be is THERE.
My theory is that AI art pretty much sucks

I have thought about it and I have found no overwhelming benefit to AI generated video and I think it’s only purpose is to fill up social feeds so the scroll becomes somehow more endless

Is RSS piracy? sometimes it feels like it. Publications have paywalls, but the public RSS feed will just give you the full article, ad free. Is this just free access for the mildly tech savvy? Oversight? Might just be a limitation of the technology that we’ve made peace with.

Let's wake up. He's REALLY unpopular for this early in a term or really ever. President's this unpopular are already losing. Power becomes harder to assert when your power is fading.

It is absolutely fucking bonkers that Trump won more of the vote than he ever had less than half a year ago and now he is less popular than he’s ever been, all on the strength of shit he was promising loudly to do when people elected him.

Bluesky needs a bookmarking feature. It took me a while, but I’ve grown to bookmarking posts in Micro.blog and Mastodon that I’d like to revisit in the future. Extra points for having a public API/RSS feed for those bookmarks.
