I really want to buy a new iPhone to replace my 4 year old iPhone mini, but they're only releasing models to conveniently play table tennis with, and I want one that conveniently fits my front pocket. Is that too much to ask for? #iphoneminitillidie

1. Leute beschädigen.
2. Leute als beschädigt zurückweisen.

Das ist schon wirklich, wirklich schäbig

Aaaaah! The Apple iCloud invoice Email used to be a beautiful 1 page PDF when exported (e.g. for taxes), now it's 2 pages with more text, a button and 5 links that are all useless for archiving purposes. I don't care about magic mice charging ports and Mac mini power buttons, but this pisses me off.

Was für ein tolles Verkehrsmittel die @deutsche-bahn.bsky.social ist, wenn man seine Anschlüsse bekommt. Heutige Strecke hätte ich in der Zeit nicht mit dem Auto geschafft, und jetzt schon mit dem Kind gelernt, gespielt und die Zeitung durch. 👍

Tried to switch from tmux to zellij to get kitty keyboard protocol support, so I can map cmd keys in @neovim.io on MacOS, but it just did not work out.

You can pry my tmux.conf from my cold dead hands.
