Absolutely true, it’s a pain for anything but their desktops, but that’s not really an answer to the broad statement that Apple users == non-technical and not detail oriented. If upgrading RAM and internal storage are the sole signifiers of being technically minded then... What qualifies for the other 99.99% of the…

Good lord MacOS is POSIX compliant, there’s room for power users and typical consumers, they’re not mutually exclusive, sheesh.

Here’s two dark horses that nobody will probably agree with but which I find so fascinating in tone and execution that I could probably watch them on a loop non stop without getting bored:

Slight typo on Richard Kar_n_. In this house, we respect the spelling of the name of the host of the Wahl Personal Grooming kit instructional VHS tape that came along with clippers which we may or may not have put on once in high school in a bizarre but successful gamble to convince our girlfriend at the time that…

And, uh, just to be clear I think Dan Olsen pretty much hit the nail on the head with the real motivation.

Timer works great for us (as does cleanup robot) but a couple of these feel a little iffy. Like, telling your kid how you feel doesn’t feel bad per se, but it’s a super fine line to walk without making your kid feel like your feelings are their responsibility which, unless there’s pathological maliciousness going on,…

Ha, I will now! Yeah my kid has been very no-fuckin-around interested in cars for about 3 years now. Like, would pre-verbally stop us in parking lots until we identified each car logo and between that (and several photo encyclopedias) has been able to identify most makes and models of American muscle cars or make…

Totally an outlier here, but since the primary Forza player in my household is about to turn 5, I cannot express how helpful the driving line has been. It has been a real shortcut to explaining so many things about how to read and play games to someone who is just starting to internalize the massive amount of implicit…

So I’ve only played the first level because I noticed it was on Game Pass and I needed a brain break from work, but the kind of remarkable thing about this game to me, or at least the way that it really incredibly makes good on the notion of a mundane power fantasy, is that the part of moving that sucks is the…

My spouse and I ate our weight in their pork kimchi during the summers of 2015 and 2016. So good, these shoes are seriously tempting.

It’s a bummer, it was a really lovely convention because of its comparatively chillness. Like, it’s 0% surprising that they axed it, but it was absolutely the one where you could sit down and play a board game with Tim Fowers (who ended up giving us a prototype of Fugitive because we had seen him at so many PAXes) or…

Totally, this is all valid, and I could maybe qualify what I said above as meaning to convey that, like, that’s why I found it disappointing in the context in which I came to it. Like, my idea was too cemented about what it was by then. I imagine if I watched it again now (it’s been a few years) or I somehow saw it…

If I may presumptuously fill in some blanks since I sense we had similar trajectories, I found that cut disappointing because it explains A LOT and they cut the Echo and the Bunnymen song, both of which are grave mistakes for different reasons.

We adopted more abstract frivolous compliments when we had our kid and consequently a month or two ago I had a little munchkin running around the house yell-singing Old Town Road at the top of their lungs telling me how fast and powerful their little white shorts made them feel. It was incredible.

This is preposterous and tangential but I felt a similar (but obviously MUCH milder) exhaustion when hour long theory crafting videos about the new Matrix showed up in my queue... Like, we don’t need to be super smart and get one over by knowing more than everyone else. I get it, it can be fun, but sometimes we can…

Absolutely, I appreciate their willingness to throw money at small creators on the constant gamble that they’ll generate another massive hit relative to its budget, but wow dude is a pretty onerous dipshit to hitch your horse to.

Fuck that, not my Colorado. I am positive it has to be all those damn Texas transplants, there’s no way my home would do me dirty like that.

I found the episodes they hinted at so wild... Like they were some of the weirder, anime-ier ones which I absolutely expected them to cut. Holding out hope for lobster fridge.

I am a big proponent of the “order drive through and park and eat in your car” method. I have years and years of fond memories of just sitting in the car with my Mom in the parking lot, eating McDonalds, and just chatting when I was a kid.
