Another #windows update. No I don't want to backup my files to OneDrive. Yes I am sure. No I will not do it later.

Article on the #enshitification of the web, on a site enshitified by so many layers of ads it is unreadable. The irony is strong with this one.

Go home Facebook. What kind of an order is that? How am supposed to find the photo I want to post when albums are sorted at random? #enshitification

Every game should have a built in option to skip the splash screens after you have seen them once. Can’t they look at how quickly ‘skip the intro’ mods pop up for new games and take the hint? #gaming

Is anyone keeping track of what he said he would do ‘on day one’?

The original Groku.

Today I learned that Twitter under Musk argued user accounts are their property (in order to protect Alex Jones account of course). I know most social media platforms probably consider the same but it is good to see it spelled out like that. I wonder if it is the same for @bsky.app.

It's almost 2025 and Google still doesn't have an option to change wifi settings on home cameras and other devices. The only option is to remove the decive and add it as new.. and that doesn't work half of the time. #enshitification

Here’s an idea for corporate tax breaks and government discounts. Turn them into loans. That companies have to pay back once they are off the ground. With interest. You know.. like students.

It is demoralizing to have campaigned for the value of graph data for years and me met by skepticism and challenges, only to watch people write blank checks for generative AI while ignoring well documented shortcomings.

Am I the only one who anticipates calls to privatize NASA for that man child who destroyed Twitter?

I really hope there is a five alarm project to back up ALL public research data in a decentralized way, and not just environmental or weather data. Everything needed to be backed up out of political control starting 4 years ago.

The mobile browsing experience has become so unbearable, I wish I had a configurable firewall on my phone to block the worst offenders one at a time. Come think of it, it would be more efficient to just allow a few sites and block the rest. #enshitification

Bluesky is a bubble in the same way the Chess club or RPG club are bubbles.. can anyone seriously ask kids to hear bullies out and better understand where they are coming from?

Coming to Bluesky from that other place feels like getting back in warm old shoes after seagulls pooped all over your car all day.
