Villeneuve has been really disappointing. He was good with smaller, more gritty stuff but isn’t a good epic director.

It is in chrome, but implemented differently. Firefox actually does it better since you can save them as bookmarks

They’ll get more votes but people are still going to vote strategically because what choice do they have.

I use sponsor block but YouTubers who do this are still typically channels I don’t like watching. No disrespect to the job but I don’t like feeling like a product.

Much prefer YouTubers who do it as a hobby

There are more useful web apps than before but blog/affiliate sites are a plague.

That said if I could make a ton of money by clogging up the internet with garbage content then I would. There is nothing holy about this place.

I don’t think it’s about being doomed and giving up. For me it’s just accepting the fact that a change of course is going to happen at whatever rate it is going to happen because the people who are driving it will do whatever they are compelled to do or want to do. Whether that is fast, or slow, or not at all barely feels like any of my business. I do what I can individually.

I went to a climate protest in Canada last week and it was way to tame to actually get anything accomplished.

The main part of the protest was walking down a main artery. For protesters, there is incentive to walk slowly and spread out to make the walk longer and disrupt status-quo longer, but the organizers clearly only had permission to march for a specific duration so they were in the back hurrying people forward so we’d stay within our allotted time window. Maybe 30 minutes. Once a year. It was pointless.

Add to that that 90% of the people there were exactly the people you’d expect to be there and it just felt like a waste of time.

(Also no to ownership. All the offices are leased.)

Lol no I wish!

I swear to god we just had all our leases expire and chose to renew ALL OF THEMMMM.

In fact, for the main office we’ve just signed a new multi-year lease in a new building. It’s smaller tho. Renovations currently in progress.

But no raises. Times are too tough.

Stores do this for every cable (unless it’s a box) that’s where I originally got the idea. I bought two boxes of small sandwich bags and that’s been all I’ve needed to wrap every spare cable at work and my own cables at home.

Plastic is actually an awesome material, it’s just overused. Wrapping sandwiches in these bags seems like the real waste.

Bags are great for cable organization. I like one bag per item with painters tape for labeling. Big cables, like that HDMI, can be velcro’d.

Ugh I really want to out the company I work at. Of all companies we should be going and advocating for remote.

But we aren’t. ‘Because being with each is SO valuable’.

Some actual low-res examples:

Political or not a non-profit is a non-profit. Unity defines charity some new way I guess.

A little less than the last big one I went to, but not bad. Several thousand people for sure. Critical mass during the walk. The large majority of people bail during the end speeches.

I feel the same way about durability but apparently usb-c is rated to 10,000 insertions. Idk though. The lightning port has been very solid in regular use but I can’t say the same about the usb-c ports I’ve known.

Eventually wireless charging will be the standard so it might not matter as much for phones.
