Safari. Why must I open another tab for the close tab icon to appear, even when I have pinned tabs open?

I am surprisingly infuriated by how annoying this is.

Watched the season 2 finale last night of Dan Da Dan, and it was glorious. For all the reasons that make this show so fun to watch.

Really looking forward to the next round.

We are 15 days in. We actually went over the 99 KM's mark yesterday!!

Our boy is an Australian Kelpie, so he likes his outdoor activities in a big way.

If you want to help us make the lives of other dogs better, please donate to our fundraising efforts here:

Murderbot would not approve of the emotional outburst that just occurred.

Thank you, @marthawells.com

Just listened to “The Rise & Fall of Sparta” on Dan Snow's History Hit & this section of the podcast really jumped out about the fall of Sparta.

Awfully familiar to where the USA is right now.

History does not repeat, but it often rhymes.

I am having fun with the @surf.social app.

Lots of tweaking and refining, but being able to pull in sources from multiple locations has been great. RSS, podcasts, Bluesky, and more.

GUI is clean and nice. The search function grabs everything, but filters would be nice.

If I get to grips with this, Surf could end up being one hell of a power app.

My RSS reader is certainly in danger, but it could easily replace the Bluesky & Mastodon apps too at this rate.

Discovered Nier: Automata's ending 'E' today (playing on the Switch)

Now I feel a lot better about how this remarkable story has finished. Amazing piece of work. Refreshingly honest and brutal, too. But I did need that ending 'E' to feel it was all worth it.

Speaking of watching things. We binged Netflix's The Four Seasons this weekend. New comedy/drama with Steve Carell.

I thought it was fine, a few laughs, but certainly not wowed.

Then the final episode just infuriated me. A major WTF? The show finished with me despising the “friend group”.

Went to see Thunderbolts* last Friday, & had an excellent time.

Captain America 4 was dull & formulaic. But this was fun, with plenty of laughs, & a genuine sense that everyone was expendable.

I had no idea what the real evil of this movie was, & like how they tackled it.

Today... this happened.

"You maniacs! You blew it up! Ah, damn you! God damn you all to hell!"

Thank you Nintendo ☺️

Some of the new gear they announced with Switch 2.

- Nintendo Switch 2 Camera
- Nintendo GameCube (GCN) Controller - Nintendo Classics
- Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller

Some pricing is a bit spicy, though.

So, some of us may be able to pre-order the Nintendo Switch 2 on April 8th.

Crossing my fingers, I get an invitation 🫰

That was a new type of spam call today. Not the usual crypto call from Belgium.

“Hello, hello. Please add me to WhatsApp”, then hangs up.

Blocked. Be safe!

As of right now, here in Ireland, Apple Maps just shows the Gulf of Mexico.
