There is no greater repellant to my wanting a new video game playing device than to tell me it comes with Teams preinstalled.

Please explain why you gave this score.

Long story short, an actual Nazi doxxing ring. Enough people reported them that they went away for like 12 hours and then Elon personally brought them back. The site is dead. If you’re still on there, go lock your account right now

I keep thinking about wanting to teach folks who are new to tech an approach called “WEB OR NOTHING”. We have to start being a lot less compromising about what tech we use and which platforms we build for.

If you're wondering whether or not to get a flu shot, I didn't get one in time, and I just had a fever dream where I was in the Drew Carey Show because several days ago I was on the Wikipedia page for the Drew Carey Show. You don't have to do this to yourself.
