Who said dialogs had to be boring? Not me! I've made the most unnecessary about dialog - but it's whimsical so I like it. Plus, I learned a little about Avalonia animation.

Actually @visualstudio.com removing the users agency to run software on their computer is a bad thing. Appallingly user hostile.

Never buy a HP laptop. For some dumb reason my job gives us HP laptops. I can put it into hibernate at 100% battery and unplug it, and the next morning the battery is so empty it can't even boot up to the "please connect to power supply" message.

An owl came down a family's chimney in Virginia and found the perfect spot on top of their Christmas tree.

Animal control came and released the wild barred owl outside.

“How will an ambulance get through?”

A question only asked of those trying to save our planet, not millionaire landowners trying to hoard wealth.

Farmers received record support in the budget. Pay what is still less than your fair share, take your tractors and piss off.

Didn’t take long for Bluesky to be yet another online American echo chamber. I have not seen a single post from someone in my country.

Two words for certain types of people, should you need them:

microlipet: one who gets all worked up over nothing.

struthonian: the person who buries their head in the sand and says ‘Problem? What problem?’.

Anyone hiring senior software engineers?

I have experience with C#/.NET, TypeScript, React, architecture, the usual stuff. I enjoy building high quality software.

So today a sub reddit mod banned me for “trying to delegitimise” a post with my comment “while recording on a phone”.

That was the comment. I asked why in the ban message, they accused me of being a “genocide apologist”. Refused to elaborate.

Reddit is the worst place on the internet.
