I write about computers at @sixcolors.com and podcast about lots of stuff at @theincomparable.com and @relay.fm - I'm a human, raised by humans. (That's a reference.)

Thank you to @moltz.bsky.social for the amazing 3D printed props that I used in my M5 reviews.
I've spent five years waiting for the M5 chip to appear, and here we are at last. (Reference: TOS s2e24, The Ultimate Computer, an episode about AI taking people's jobs and being bad at them. 🤔)

I enjoy the TV maps from @506sports.bsky.social because of the quirks like these: Chico/Redding is alone in the west showing Cleveland-Pittsburgh because that's where Aaron Rodgers is from. And despite everything, St. Louis is still soft on the Rams.

On our way to Milford Sound I knew we would approach my southernmost point so I took a picture of it -- an unassuming intersection.

I'm a lifelong Cal fan. Losing the entire offense to the transfer portal was bad enough, but this home schedule is deeply uninteresting. Woof. (Especially for someone who grew up watching Pac-10/12 games.)

Oh look. You asked for a sign-in link today. Okay, but you haven't asked for one in ages and password authentication is offered. If you have an issue I can take it up with @memberful.bsky.social I guess but you know, as a "tech giant" I don't write my own login scheme.

This seems very strangely hostile (assuming you actually mean me), but my websites use Memberful, which have a password login by default.
