You should really look at who built the Doom captcha thingie before resharing it lol

it's been a while I didn't setup macOS, but I'm going a bit mental here. Do I really need to install an app to control the volume out of my HDMI monitor? for real? I plug a computer to a monitor, and I need a third party app for the OS to control the VOLUME?! 👀

Job update: I joined Nex (nex.inc) as Director of Product Design for playOS, the OS powering the Nex Playground.
I'll be designing the base OS to support a lot of cool games to keep kids active. Very importantly (to me), the console has: no app store, no in app-purchases, no designing games around marketing, not even a web browser on the device. (And a physical camera cover when you don't use it). A safe console for kids to get off the couch.
Also it's a pretty cute hardware 😄

Who knew that the Home Alone poster would be the template for every YouTube thumbnail ever.

I wish all markdown editors would open documents in view mode by default.
Currently, markdown is not entirely suitable as a sharing format because it opens in edit mode by default.
I want the links to be clickable and the inline images to be visible directly, instead of seeing the guts of the documents first.
It should feel more like a PDF, with an edit button somewhere when you share, but I understand how annoying it could be for your own documents.

I made this #poll a million years ago on Twitter, but I wanna try again here 😄
Should text in user interface speak subjectively or objectively?

You're thirsty, so you pour yourself a glass of water. How many ice cubes do you add?

Rubber banding on overscroll in Firefox, so nice <3
Haven't really followed why it's legally ok now, but hopefully a pattern we will start seeing everywhere. This is by far the most natural way to tell the user they reached the end of a scroll view and should have never been proprietary IMO.

oh yeah i love the oembed standard, and I'm quite sad it didn't achieve what it's supposed to do yet

I feel like it _got_ better, but those company rather you keep using their very expensive API. Depends what you need it for tho, I suppose

why not just straight use the open protocol oembed instead? https://oembed.com/

you're the smart one. It's awful.

I lasted almost 10 min. There is no way I can sit through this debate.

The design assumption that terminals are always in dark mode runs deep.

shout out to @npub1hpg…qrqz from what I've seen so far 😊

haha nice. I'm having trouble finding a nice hosting solution that supports php natively. All the big ones (netlify, vercel, render) are expecting you to use a docker image if you want to use php 🥲

2024-08-30 00:10:15 UTC

Please tell me again why we moved away from PHP
```<html>
<body>
<?php include 'header.php';?>
<h1>Welcome to my home page!</h1>
<p>Some text.</p>
<p>Some more text.</p>
<?php include 'footer.php';?>
</body>
</html>```

alt text Matt, alt text, otherwise I am not legally allowed to boost 😄

People seem fed up with a multi-trillion dollar company's latest extortion scheme. Great, now is the time to start looking for alternatives! Most open operating systems are actually more usable and user-centric than the commercial ones ❤️
Look around, plenty of amazing OSes by amazing people: @npub1hpw…cd0d, @npub1k8c…x85k, @npub16nm…cc46 and many more. Finding the one you love is actually fun.
You can even buy a laptop preinstalled if you don't want to deal with installation!

damn Nicolas, spot on, thank you so much!
Turns out my BIOS settings got reset. It rebooted, phew 😅

I totally understand the need to switch to a more modern and well maintained font, but I'm still sad Gnome wants to look a lot more like macOS.
I will miss Gnome having a unique and recognizable typographic voice.

To clarify, I don't use Photoshop anymore, and neither should you. @npub1jxd…txs3 and @npub1rfc…7tmz are all you need 😊

So apparently Adobe updated their terms of service to train their AI on your content, and without accepting them you can't:
- launch the app
- uninstall the app
- cancel your subscription
- delete your account
- or contact support
Incredible.

I have #fedora #asahi 39 on a Mac, and Software refuses to offer me 40 as an upgrade.
Am I holding it wrong?
