I've been allergic to pet dander my whole life, and I will usually break out in hives just from being in the same room as someone who owns a dog. Yet, I'm still expected to pretend that I love their precious furry angel. Lately, I just let people know that couldn't be further from the truth. That said, I absolutely adore cats. But I'm just as allergic and would never own one.

Apple's App Store has included this "feature" for several years. Gross.

Interesting. Scary.

So cute! The roast site made me laugh, but this is wholesome. The world needs both ;)

I'm trying to find a YouTube video of a stand-up routine that I loved, but I can't remember the name of the performer! Here's what I do remember. She had long brown hair and a voice that reminded me of Mickey Mouse. I believe the video was taken from one of those late-night shows. Her routine was about getting older and not wanting to date casually anymore. It was pretty raunchy too. Two punchlines I remember had to do with drinking c-m and claiming her biggest weakness or red flag was that her p-ssy is too tight. Thanks in advance!

I've been looking forward to this release!

I highly recommend "Essentials of Compilation" by Jeremy Siek, which explores the same nano-pass approach using both Python and Racket. His course is easily one of my favorites.

I understand that people feel strongly about Snaps, but I don't know about saying that they're a security vulnerability on the basis of offering automatic updates.

Safari refers to it as "Privacy-Preserving Ad Measurement", and Chrome includes an option as part of its "Privacy Sandbox." Please have the decency to do a basic google search before being an asshole :)

I am interested in dual-booting a Linux distro (probably Ubuntu) on my 2019 MacBook Pro. Ideally, I would have a shared data partition so that I could access my documents from both OSes. Does anyone have suggestions on the best way to accomplish this?

UPDATE: created macOS, Ubuntu, and data partitions. Was able to mount and access data partition from both systems without any issues. As a bonus, Ubuntu let me replace the standard documents, photos, videos, etc. folders with symlinks to the data partition.

 

My partner and I bought a low-end 3D scanner on Amazon to create this visualizer for a song I wrote!

The scanner aided in created a 3D mesh and texture map, which we brought into Blender and added fluid simulations via the FLIP plugin.

The song was recorded in Logic Pro, featuring my childhood Yamaha Portasound PSS-270. The video was comped in Final Cut Pro.

I'd love to know what you all think :)

 

Does anyone here have a BOOX e-paper tablet? I'm a big fan of e-paper devices—I love my Pebble smartwatch, Kindle Paperwhite, and Light Phone II. I've been eyeing the Tab Ultra C for quite a while, and I am considering the pros and cons. Mostly, I intend to use it for browsing the web and maybe some light note taking and document writing.

Hi friends! Can anyone recommend a good RSS reader for Mac, which supports the Fever API? I run a self-hosted FreshRSS server which I prefer to access through a client application. I have tried Fluent Reader, but it does not support the "starred" articles feature.

UPDATE: I've been using NetNewsWire for a while now, and it's perfect.

 

"Nothing Chats, powered by Sunbird, allows you to directly message other phone users from your Nothing phone via blue bubbles."

I don't think this solves the problem, but it is a step in the right direction.

 

I recently acquired an Intel Compute Stick during a liquidation sale. Has anyone used one of these as a home server? I currently host UmbrelOS on a RPi 4, which works great, but I can't imagine what I would use the Compute Stick for...
