Having a QLC SSD in my laptop is just bleh, never again letting that happen.

Maybe games like #Overwatch should have ranked choice hero queues?

LOL Twitter fucked up their new security key thing and so now I can't get in to Twitter. It wanted me to set a new key for the stupid X domain, so I did this, but now it keeps saying I need to add it (even though it's being used to sign in) and is stuck in a redirect loop (not auto-redirect though).

I use @signal.org for like 95% of my communications at this point. And while I think it's amazing overall, there are 2 features I've always felt it should have.
1. Proper message threading similar to iMessage
2. More than 4 pinned conversations

Here’s my breakdown of EA’s pending sale… to Saudi Arabia… and why this is much, much bigger than video games. I’m late to this from a ‘news’ perspective obviously, but it’s because I worked on this video for about a month.

Been trying out the Futo Keyboard for Android and actually digging it.
I have mixed feelings, on one hand I don't trust GBoard despite what they say, but on the other hand I trust GBoard is less likely to have big security issues.
Anyway, this has bee nice.

Having to work Saturday morning because someone installed malware on their computer, gotta love that 24/7/365 on call status.
Luckily, it's extremely minor so cleanup is easy. Just your run of the mill browser hijacker but bleh.
