just smashed my dad's old macintosh G4 cube to pieces by moving the shelf it was on without taking it off first. AMA but no i only cried a little (so far)

glad to find out someone loved "hot fuzz". enjoyed the clips and comparisons with the director's pre-industry just for fun work too youtube.com/watch?v=Cdz-jfxIRU

why is it that northern canada has terrible biting bugs — mosquitos, black flies, deer flies, etc. — but patagonia reportedly does not?

a day starting with dish-washing, tidying, then lunch at flux brewery with my friend mark, and then helping go through stuff at my grandpas (he just went into a retirement home), and then various more chores at home. nice to have busy days that aren’t consumed with “work”.

back from falls reserve @ mainland river conservation. loved chilling in the falls (such warm water!)

prepping for a camping trip with some dudes this weekend. what am i gonna forget? so far realized i’d left my toothbrush off the packing list, so that’s a close call.

well, this is annoying. i thought i'd taken the election to do the "quick method" of HST returns for 2023, but turns out i didnt actually submit it, and now i've got to go back and get alll those HST amounts out of my expenses. 😫

oh, actually it's tonight! and this'll be the first time david's touring as his own drummer, which is cool. folks are saying it's giving a whole different feel this time around, and from the video samples, i bet it's a good one.

new "santa cruz" pedro the lion album is one of his best ever i think… hopefully i’m not overselling it — it’s a lot about his childhood experiences, ones which resonate w me. and the production is in my wheelhouse… on first listen it was kinda underwhelming but now i think it kinda clicked.

why does sam altman always look like his soul got sucked out by some kind of red skull nazi time portal?

my dad found a pretty wild medical text at a local charity shop

all these people scrambling to back up their old google analytics data before the whole system gets deleted on july 1. makes me glad i got the process going last week. bet there’s crazy amounts of API requests slamming google right now.

I updated my explainer for Manifest V3 and the changes coming to ad blocker browser extensions, since a few things have changed over the past few months. #tech #firefox #chrome #privacy

one thing i really miss from twitter is the people who would do in-depth threads on history/archaeology/science/trivia topics. do those accounts exist on mastodon?

My favorite barely noticeable UI detail in Calcish: codebook settings icon. It looks like a standard SF Symbol, but with a twist: it indicates which language features are turned on based on the order of checkboxes.
