Butthole detects proximity to safe toilet.

Definite wins for me:

• Weather widget small tile with added info (multi-day forecast especially)
• Shared Apple Music playlists
• Local awareness Emergency Alerts

Capitalism: “No.”

I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for any sort of epic crash.

I expect that home ownership is going to become solely for the upper-middle class and up, and that home prices won’t make any serious downward movement.

I expect the housing crisis will eventually start to ease as areas become more accepting of high-density housing development, and that will become the sole province of people with finances beneath the home ownership class.

Essentially, the establishment of a much more distinct and explicit two-tier system. Prices in one will have minimal impact on the other, much like how any swing in prices for small passenger boats has no impact on the price of yachts.

Everything I own, except the burial plot. I bought that for death.

Bidet standing up. Making it brown rain.

How has it been like 20 years since Slashdot was relevant, and we’re still getting the same, “LOL install Linux instead” comments?

Like, I’ve been using and loving Linux since the late '90. But damn, I’m expecting to see “Micro$oft” in these comments any moment.

God heals, but always within the exact parameters of what is possible by the modern medicine of that exact era.

Amputees unfortunately can still go fuck themselves.

Put a large collection of albums into your “Library”.

Now try to pull up a list of a single artist’s albums within your Library.

The “Library” management is so remedial that it’s basically a joke. It can’t measure up to iTunes from 20 years ago. It’s completely unusable for a serious music collection.

It may be fine for people that just listen to singles and playlists, but every other music service can do that too, while also offering complete functionality elsewhere.

YouTube Music is a half-baked, half-complete product. It’s inexplicable that it exists when they literally just needed to do nothing but rebrand Google Play Music.

You can just click Follow and start following someone. You don’t have to perform a copy-paste dance to bring the username back to your instance and do the following there.

It’s ridiculous how much Mastodon advocates downplay this.

I strongly prefer Mastodon over the alternatives, but the onboarding experience is BAD for the average user.

YouTube Music is the enshitttified version of Google Play Music.

Apple Maps + CarPlay is so much better than Google Maps + Android Auto that the latter is embarrassing.

I say this as someone that has owned Android phones since the very beginning (HTC Dream/T-Mobile G1).

Game devs: “No thanks, we’re waiving the fees by using a different engine.”

I guess to contradict my own point, the point of watching the show became less about the quality of the show itself, and more about college-aged Danielle Fishel and college-aged Maitland Ward screen time.

Boy Meets World

GoT should have just never happened in the first place, and we should have gotten 5 more seasons of Rome instead.

And even if some prototype device is, that doesn’t mean the production device will be, once things like heat and power usage have to really be accounted for.

The first time was when even the “old man” veteran professional athletes were younger than me.

There’s essentially no difference between Bud Light and dog pee, so the grass should react the same in both scenarios.
