I don’t need to tell you to make Nigella’s meatballs (because they’re Nigella’s meatballs) but this is my absolute favourite comfort food on a cold-ish day

Fastmail! Paid service but very capable and familiar to Gmail users. Company isn't based in the US. I thought about Proton but it would essentially force me to use Proton's apps and that didn't feel great. I have a custom domain, so I didn't have to change my email address with service providers.

By far the worst thing about switching away from Gmail is the bit where you have to nudge almost 20 years of muscle memory of typing gmail.com to get to your emails out of your head. The best thing is literally everything else

Honestly fair fucks to Vittorio Angelone for calling out Penny Mordaunt on Last Leg

you can go to bandcamp dot com, buy some albums, and put them on a hard drive to listen to later. any time you want! in whatever order you want! no ads or anything. i know it seems to good to be true but it's real

this is what it feels like to post on bluesky

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

I know Apple’s also putting AI stuff into its devices but like. This could be Baby’s First MacBook for a lot of people fed up with Windows 11

When I saw the price I said “holy shit” out loud, icl

So real. I’m at the point where if folks I know want to try Linux I don’t even give them a choice of distro anymore

wondering what the best version of Linux is? Some will say mint or Ubuntu or Debian or whatever, but there is a CORRECT ANSWER:

whatever a linux nerd you have on speed dial can give u tech support with

Ahhhhhh, that's... quite relatable honestly

I love how the cat looks both Quite Bothered and Extremely Unbothered all at once

It is 1991. I am 15 years old. The US has gone to war in the Middle East.

It is 2003. I am 27 years old. The US has gone to war in the Middle East.

It is 2026. I'm too old for this shit. The US has gone to war in the Middle East.

In Gen 9 I broke the habit of a lifetime by not going with the grass starter (because of course I was going to get the duck) and I fear I may have to do it again with Gen 10 because, buppy

look, if you only found out about this today, i shouldn't have to listen to your british politics takes.

By 12% too!! Genuinely thought I’d wake up to a very tight result but holy shit!!!!

Labour's swing toward racism is perhaps the biggest unforced error in British political history; burnt their base to ashes and won them not a single vote on the right.

I do actually agree with the political commentators that you can’t extrapolate today’s result and assume that the greens will do well in the next general election, which is why we all need to get behind them and make damn sure the worst politicians lose their seats

Desperately hoping any non-US competition regulators do their level best to block this, but also aware that that is perhaps hoping beyond hope
