A hill I will die on: Microsoft ruined email by making top-replying a thing. I will NOT write my reply on top of the email I'm replying to. I will write it in-line, chopping up quotes that I reply to individually.

At work, we once went to a surprise destination (red flag #1). It was Gröna Lund, (amusement park/consert venue etc here in Stockholm). I left after 90 minutes due to the overwhelm. This was a Wednesday. I needed two sickdays off to recover.

I cannot get over these cops wearing night vision to arrest a dude on a Southwest Airlines flight in broad daylight.

"You need to leave your comfort zone" Bud, I'm an autistic person. I have discomforts you can't even imagine.

Arbetsförmedlingen häver 94 avtal med 54 leverantörer inom Rusta och matcha, en av de mest utskällda välfärdsreformerna, som innebar en massiv privatisering av stödet till arbetslösa. Beslutet berör över 6 800 deltagare. Ett av marknadens största bolag förlorar sju avtal.

You know what fuckin’ rocks? Accessibility. You know what’s not cool? Shaming products that are meant to make things more accessible for people! Check out my post over Tab Buddies and some thoughts on accessibility on the blog ✨ whatever.scalzi.com/2025/05/29/r...

I have been logged out of my toothbrush.

OK, little bit of nostalgia.

The masculine urge to gather twigs and leaves in order to build a nest that a potential mate will find satisfying

The entire modern internet has been built on platforms that don’t believe in asking for consent. What if we started demanding a culture of consent online? www.anildash.com//2025/05/27/...

been saying this for like 3 years now, the core constituency of the "manosphere" is not Gen Z or teenage boys, it is 35-55 year old dudes who wish they were still teenage boys

Sweden beaten 2-6 by the US in the Hockey World Championships. Once patriotic tariffs are applied, the final score will be readjusted to 0-41.

Wow: after 15 years, YouTube has taken down the original 'Rick Roll' video due to a "licensing issue," likely due to the acquisition of Astley's record lable. The metadata remains, but if you click through it goes to 'video not found': www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4...

Help, why did I do this. I haven't played since... Cataclysm? I was bored and mostly just want to check it out for a little while, not planning to stick around.

Varje natt

Karakeep seems neat? Will give it a try.

I know Zen Browser is still kind of early in development, but I really miss proper AppleScript integration so I can use the quick entry with autofill from Things. Maybe I'll make an issue, though it is kind of a niche use case.

Ugh. Allergies starting.

I've been dabbling a bit with Fusion 360 at a verrrry basic level, but I'm going to give #FreeCAD a proper look as well.

Threads sometimes feels appropriately named, when features hang by a thread. Right now I can't reply to posts. 🤷🏻

Using Fusion 360 in a dark room be like

Learning some more Fusion 360. Made a parametric rack post where I can just change a variable to say how many units tall I want it to be, and I get everything in its place.

This times a trillion.

Having spent all of five minutes trying, I find working with quotes a lot more annoying in Obsidian than in Logseq.

“British researchers have discovered that a ‘copy’ of Magna Carta owned by Harvard Law School is in fact an extraordinarily rare original from 1300.” Harvard bought it for $27.50 — it’s likely worth $10s of millions. [hls.harvard.edu]

Took my glasses off, held them in one hand. Opened the AirPods case with the other. Spent 1.26 seconds thinking "hmm, those won't fit in there."

Once a foreign government can openly give the president a half-billion-dollar plane as a personal gift, there’s no red line left between a democracy and a full-blown kleptocracy. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/corruption...

Floof.

Man får tjata vidare om detta: Sverige har lyckats få ned *utbetalningarna* till långtidssjuka. Det betyder inte att dessa har blivit friska och fått jobb.
