Towards the end of 2018, Apple threatened to pull the tumblr app from the App Store over the presence of CSAM on the site. Tumblr responded with a radical change in policy that affects it to this day.
Today, despite similar concerns, the X app has not been pulled.
Come on, Apple. https://sixcolors.com/link/2026/01/apple-cowardly-still-has-not-pulled-x-and-grok-from-the-app-store/
How is Plaid still a thing? No, I’m not entering the password for my bank account anywhere other than my bank’s website, thank you very much!
YOU 👏 BANNED 👏 MY 👏 ACCOUNT 
I need help. I’ve got two 4K monitors and a boatload of USB peripherals that I want to switch between my 2-4 computers. My current KVM switch is flaking out, and the replacement I bought might be bad. All the known KVM brands are $$$ with features (EDID, hotkeys) I don’t need/want. Recommendations? https://www.amazon.com/Monitors-Computers-DisplayPort-KCEVE-Switcher/dp/B0DXQ4RQVJ/
So CVS will text me incessantly about picking up my meds, but they tell me about a recall via physical mail?
In what I can only describe as divine intervention, the PHP script threw the “out of memory” error from the actual file where the problem was occurring after chasing this bug down for over a week. Just… wow.
No, I haven’t shipped Smolblog. But I have taken some of the code and codified it as its own framework. Let me introduce you to Cavatappi, a PHP framework very much in progress for making complex applications simpler. https://cavatappi.dev/
Ok, be real with me: how bad of an idea is it to get into amateur radio? Or how hard is it to get started?

And so goes my annual ritual of getting knocked on my ass by Dolly Parton via SPIKEVAX.
Get your shots. Protect yourself and those around you.
Not me searching for if there’s a plugin to use the Caddy web server with the Lando dev tool…
Anyway, happy Singapore Grand Prix weekend to all who celebrate. 🏎️ 
Anyone use Nova (by Panic) for PHP dev? If so, how do you like it?
I keep falling into the ADD trope of forgetting to take my meds in the morning. So I’ll wait to relieve myself until I have breakfast ready so that I can see the med cabinet and be reminded.
That doesn’t work when I relieve myself at 5 in the morning because my dog also had to relieve himself.
Who is the marketing genius at Panera that decided the best time to alert me that I’m one visit away from earning a reward is right after I’ve placed an order?! I’m not hungry; I literally just ate your food! Set it to 23 hours later or something!
Okay, yes, I’m announcing a new project instead of finishing the current one BUT what if the new project is really part of the current project that’s actually shippable?
Ok, so modern dishwashers work best if you don’t pre-rinse and leave food residue on your dishes. And my dishwasher is super airtight.
So is there any way for me to load dishes as I use them over several days without it smelling like absolute death every time I open it?
My Christian Rap past has come back to haunt me. (Do they know I was more of a John Reuben guy?)

To every senator and representative who could have done something to stop the federal rescissions package and didn’t, and especially the ones that voted for it:

Yeah, our tap water is that good. 
I would like to formally thank the cancel culture participants for getting James Gunn fired by Disney in 2018. I don’t think we would have the Superman movie we do today without them.
