Anyone find it funny how when the UK releases the Cass review to ban trans care, we get everything ranging from New York Times push notifs to op-eds in every major US paper...

This is one of the questions I get most often from non-technical friends. When Microsoft retires Windows 10 later this year, they're leaving in the neighborhood of a billion computers without support. Here's what you need to know about Windows 10's end-of-life.

In step one of my grand “move to Manchester plan”, which of course is to settle in for pints at the Marble Arch while scrolling zoopla

#thetraitors I wish there was a version of the show which didn’t tell you who was faithful and who was a traitor

An incomplete collection of my old phones. I do miss when mobile design was more bonkers.

When someone posts and is clearly in the middle of a game, don’t weigh in with your thoughts of the ending. You shouldn’t need to be told this.

This feels like a really important article. A manifesto for trans healthcare that I stand behind.

Bizarre hearing British podcasts advertising PayPal “making it easier to send money to friends and family” as though we have the same banking headaches as USians.
