a bit out-there request: is there anyone with knowledge of Windows 9x era graphics who would be willing to read my silly blog post venting about borderless fullscreen to verify that I'm not getting anything totally wrong?
unfortunately, finding information about this is impossible on the modern web, and it feels like a good idea to do at least a vibe-check
@cR0w I'm a laboratory reference standard alright

"I would never buy a Tesla, because I don’t want to drive a car built by a fascist. Many people think like me. Apple is dangerously close to suffering the same fate.”
apparently i am going to see Iron Lung on Thursday afternoon. The kid wants to see it. It is a video game movie made by an obsessive fan who's a popular youtuber? So even if it's bad it'll be *weird* bad, which way beats bland bad. Trailer looks like video game sci fi.
@davidgerard Oh, nice!
I liked the video game and loved the movie :)

Duty-free sales at Japan’s top department stores fell again in January, highlighting the prolonged pain for the country’s retail industry as tensions between Tokyo and Beijing show no sign of easing. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/02/02/duty-free-sales-china-tensions/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #chinajapanrelations #sanaetakaichi #tourism #dutyfree
Lesson from Minnesota, Denmark, and now perhaps Harvard: Stand up to the bully.
Trump Drops Demand for Cash From Harvard After Stiff Resistance https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/02/us/politics/trump-harvard-payment.html?smid=tw-share
Just imagine if the University of Michigan had been as brave as Harvard instead of closing their DEI office when trump demanded it.
Today's shenanigans are all the more reason to use Visual Studio Code, the safe text editor!
@mttaggart Or Emacs, God's editor. ;)
Congrats @jaredwhite and @marcoroth 👏
@luislavena @marcoroth tysm 🙏
@mwichary no! I'd love to see a book like this. There was so much experimentation in the late 80s that people no longer remember
@scottjenson I’d love to see a celebration of more utilitarian kind of stuff. The most beautiful DOS apps, for example. Or particularly nice early Mac apps before the conventions solidified.
@woozle It's a trade off. I have to photo every month, but there's no dongle and no tracking app. ...and the link to take the photo is Linux compatible. So... I'll take it.
@hellomiakoda We just pay a flat fee every month, no dongles or photos -- currently $50/mo for the newer vehicle. (I had to log in to look it up because it's rolled into our home insurance, which is more than the two car-insurances combined.)
@mattblaze @kims obviously. Just a bit surprised about the careless vibes of their private communications.
Changing a smoke detector battery before the next beep startles me so much I fall off the ladder is as close as I get to defusing bombs.
All mine are cleverly programmed to do that at 3 am.
@David As we mention below, we're not in the U.S., and we aren't American either. We shared this here in order to gauge the international audience's views on tipping for takeout — which we did presume would be different to the Flipboard app audience, and interesting to see and discuss.
@CultureDesk Guys, if you're not Americans, it's a shame really. Because the number one reason I don't use Flipboard is because it's too US centric.
Please get used to cooking with algae now, as the planet continues to deteriorate it will eventually be the only plant we have left.
@lowqualityfacts that, and zucchinis

日本의 TypeScript 컨퍼런스인 TSKaigi 2026이 5月 22日(金)–23日(土)에 東京에서 開催된다고 합니다. 함께 가실 韓國 분 계실까요?
一旦 저랑 @2chanhaeng 님하고 @kodingwarrior 님이 같이 가실 것 같습니다.
@atpfm I know you guys are also fans. That was surprising and amazing
@tambourineman We’ve seen it, and yep.
