Ok, im gonna check it.
Fortnite is great, but Epic Games Stores app on Windows is abysmal. Not sure if I’ve ever used slower software than this.
Tomorrow wil be my first day of using Linux only for Work. Not sure if it’s gonna work out but let’s see. I can always boot into Windows if needed.
Holy fuck.
In a pitch deck to prospective customers, one of Facebook’s alleged marketing partners explained how it listens to users' smartphone microphones and advertises to them accordingly.
Threads are fine in terms of being integrated with ActivityPub, but holy shit if this isn’t an engagement hell. Because I see how this app tries to hook me in I can’t (and will not) use it.
I’ve been tracking calories for about six weeks now, and it’s both obvious and interesting that whenever my macros lean heavily towards carbs, I end up eating more than on days with a higher protein intake.
On its 10th anniversary, Signal’s president wants to remind you that the world’s most secure communications platform is a nonprofit. It’s free. It doesn’t track you or serve you ads. It pays its engineers very well. And it’s a go-to app for hundreds of millions of people.
I need to learn docker. The time has come.
Long day.
I’d actually love to have all of my life in a web browser. Just that. The web browser. Maybe this is something I should explore more? It’s definitely doable. Or is it?
Was just listening the Arc podcast (the one about browser) and it’s fascinating that Stripe entire work-stack will be enterprise Chrome only. That’s bold but also VERY interesting.
There’s a good and bad part to it. Good part is that I’m going to just move everything to new, HomeAssistant-only server. Bad part - I’ve got to do it. I have to do “the thing”.
Next time I’m going to consider using RPi4 on something I use everyday just kick me in the head. My old HA setup (that I’m using in current apartment) just broke.
Even though MTG:Arena is not available on Linux it just worked without any modifications just by clicking a checkbox on Steam. This is wild!
@Havn huh interesting take regarding how much goes to artist either way. Joe thing still stands though! And music quality.
Isn’t tidal the best of both worlds with great quality and pretty ok app?
New SSD just came in. Ubuntu is already installed. The only issue is that my keyboard doesn’t work nicely with Ubuntu because it’s Magic Whatever Apple Keyboard. I might just get the Logitech MX thing.
@Havn I do use Spotify right now, but: it's giving money to Joe Rogan, Spotify keeps paying artists less than Apple Music does and quality of music isn't top tier (and I do have good enough stereo to listen to lossless music)

It started to feel bad to be so deep in Apple ecosystem when I see their greedy behaviour. They’re corporation, sure, but it didn’t feel that bad before.
When you’re curious but need only one spoiler.
Ordered 512GB SSD to put Linux on. Two systems on one machine it is. I’m wondering which one I’m actually going to use more!
@JohnPhilpin yeah, but you can still use it with other services
@Havn nice, valid point. I think you might be right! I’m not using Arc on Windows so I don’t use the same browser everywhere. Hmmm… thanks for the input, I might think about it more now 😅
@gregmorris for real, great stuff!
@gregmorris these are beautiful.
@abc pawel.orzech.me - this is it
@renevanbelzen I mean, yes, sure, of course. It’s just one of these products when even if I would complain I wouldn’t consider a change. Same goes for Fastmail or 1Password.
@canion Obsidian became a thing, then Spotify instead of Apple Music, then Microsoft Edge instead of Safari.
@ldukemperezo I do have that very small, portable Canon though that works most of the time during daylight (and it’s pretty mediocre) during low light scenarios. Maybe I should just rent it out and check how I’m feeling about this
@pcora I do have Canon G5X Mark II with me all the time but you can cheat bigger sensor with smaller sensor unfortunately. It is very convenient though, small, f/1.8-2.8 and basically 24-120mm lens. Very good but noise comes up quite quickly with it
@canion it’s becoming very slow and sometimes closed tabs are coming back or are behaving like they are still opened (closed google meet but camera is still active even though there’s nothing to be active for)
@ner3y more time passes the less enthusiastic I am honestly, if they went to therapy this movie wouldn't make sense at all
@alexander im using Obsidian for notes, and I really like how interactive Journal from apple is. Photos, videos, pins on a map! Very nice
@camiel I think that’s from old version, just grew to love it (and any other breaks my brain)
@jaheppler what makes you do that?
@camiel I'm in "read with Reeder, reply with whatever" boat. My mastodon account is hosted on my own instance, so I couldn't care less with someone follows my micro.blog or Mastodon account, they're gonna get bombarded with my ~content~ either way. What's your take on it? What you can't stand or don't want to happen?
