Am I the only one who thought this was Tom Scott for a moment?

I loved that phone… As soon as I put Cyanogen on it. I voided my warranty on the second week in a rage induced by the home screen taking 30 seconds to load. Samsung always has sucked at software.

I had the opposite, I hated coding and never wanted to do it as a job… But here I am, 9-5 coding. 😅

I did realise at some point that it was actually Java that I hated, not programming. I do, however now work with Kotlin.

One company I worked for decided it was a good idea to name a bunch of firings due to performance “Project Panda” 🤦

I decided to end a relationship and marriage, after being together for 13 years. For the first time in years I put myself first and realised that I needed to be out of the relationship. Coming out of this has been very difficult and I’ve been struggling with my mental health since.

I started dating again, and have had two horrible experiences where my feelings were just put aside and it really hurt. Both of which ended up with the relationship ending. It’s like I’m not allowed to have feelings or struggle. 😞

Is vodka a root beer?

This is weird marketing, why not just say “we’re merging Google podcast and YouTube music into one app”?

Flipboard still exists?

Because otherwise I’ll be under the illusion that they don’t exist.

I tend to avoid blocking communities and people on social media as I don’t want to create myself an echo chamber. On other social media, such as x/twitter, I only block folk who are directly abusive to myself.

In the bin with you Reddit

Don’t get me started on encountering a ‘feature’ by accident, I’m looking at you hot corners 🤮

I wish it was pinwheels, sadly it was just complete lockups, as in, not even the mouse would move. It got worse and was most noticeable when an external monitor was attached.

As someone who switches between Windows, Mac, and Linux (KDE), the every-day bugs with Mac OS are far more annoying to me than the bugs in the other two.

In my experience when I find a bug in Windows or Linux, it’s normally quite a significant bug, but it’s an edge case that you only run into occasionally (e.g. WSL used to lock up completely on Windows 11 when hibernating).

When I find a bug on MacOS, it’s normally something minor, but in something I do all the time, so it ends up being more frustrating (e.g. the lock ups and stuttering every few seconds when Ventura was quite new, oh boy that was annoying).

I couldn’t quite believe the Cloudflare thing, so I loaded up a new Firefox profile, disabled all cookies, and disabled JavaScript and accessed one of my websites that sits behind cloudflare and… It worked just fine.

Do you have more info on that? Is it only in certain cases?
