The only reason I ever even tried “Outlook (new)” was because the old Microsoft “Mail” app was trash (the piece of shit wouldn’t even let me send plain text email). I immediately lost interest as soon as I realized there was a bunch of 365 shit bundled into it that I couldn’t disable.

If Microsoft wants more RAM just to do AI shit on my computer, I’d rather have even less just to make sure they cant.

I’ve gotten back into Minecraft lately, after not playing it at all for at least a year. I finally reached a couple major milestones, like defeating the Enderdragon and obtaining netherite scraps (still don’t have any netherite equipment yet–obtaining smithing templates is a real pain). Playing on a couple SMP servers has also motivated me to put actual effort into beautifying my bases, rather than just living in a tiny wooden shack I made on day one or two.

Honestly, I get many of my best recommendations by word of mouth. I don’t think any website can beat talking to your friends about what they’re watching.

If you don’t want critters eating your veggies, you have to set up a fence around your garden.

The Mozilla Foundation did a tech podcast called IRL. It hasn’t updated in nearly a year, and I don’t know if it’s ever coming back, but some of their back episodes are worth listening to.

Instead of “just leaving this here”, how about you actually clarify what you’re implying? It sounds like you’re accusing Jill Stein of being a Russian asset, and I think it’s really irresponsible to make this kind of accusation in a vague way that gives you plausible deniability.

Lately, I’ve been obsessed with Into The Breach, a mecha vs kaiju strategy game by the developers of FTL. It’s surprisingly challenging, and more similar to chess than any other strategy computer game I’ve played before.

It’s wack how the internet seems to have collectively forgotten about this technology over the past decade, despite it not being the least bit obsolete.
