‘Small businesses’

One of the points the article makes is that people boost such content despite knowing it’s fake because it confirms what they’re ’feeling’. Want to feel outrage? Here’s an image that will let you and others feel that. Truth? Irrelevant.

In short: it’s the ‘facts don’t care about your feelings’ crowd doing what they do best: recasting reality as a jumble of vague feelings.

Just a few more years until we’ve fully migrated to SAP’s WiFu system

Vivaldi is chrom_ium_. Been trying out the last month on macOS. Great browser, although it’s funny how for some settings you get taken to a different page that looks 100% like Chrome except with Vivaldi branding.

Vivaldi on iOS doesn’t feel as great though – less ‘native’. Certain gestures and animations just don’t quite fit.

Shoutout to Webkit-based Orion for both platforms. Slowly gravitating to that

Guess they made it a bit too easy to access

Same energy: this legendary comment in an issue on the Docker github repo (by the issue OP, no less)

Huh… I had no idea. I lived there as a kid, and now you mention it, yeah – flyovers all over the place and lots of cars. I miss being able to get anywhere cheaply with the combo of KCR/MTR and taxis though.

Thanks for teaching me something new!

Row after row of copy-pasted high-rise apartment buildings does not spark joy.

Unfortunately, Hong Kong has so little buildable land, its terrain hilly with scattered flat patches, that this approach is the only one that gets you enough units for everyone. Last I heard though property prices were absolutely skyrocketing.

More to the point, a huge mall does not compare with green outdoor space to walk around in. On the other hand, there’s at least four months each year when outside is a fucking steam oven and a mall with air conditioning is 100% where you want to be.

“For the loneliness you foster I suggest Paul Auster – a book called Timbuktu.”

Lyric by Fionn Regan that eventually led to Auster being one of my favorite authors throughout my teens and early twenties.

Settled on Voyager months ago. Sometimes I wonder if I’m missing out on newer alternatives for iOS but Voyager does everything I need it to and has that comfortable, familiar Apollo aesthetic.

Out of curiosity, do you have to refine it somehow, or is it good to eat straight from the tree?
