That is very expensive for email… $10/month/user?! I thought #fastmail prices for $5/month/user was pricey!

#selfhosting email needs to be a thing again.

Broker rejected some random PDF they want me to sign because I used an #Apple Pencil. I need to print, sign, take a pic, and send it. But they also said #Docusign is okay if I do it myself?

I'm so tired 🫩

I didn’t even know “glass cloth” was a thing inside of chips. #TIL. It’s the new “no more memory available” problem #Apple, #AMD, #Qualcomm, and #Nvidia are having problems sourcing. (Although I think Apple and Nvidia are secure in memory department).

Tried to add my driver’s license to my #iPhone & #AppleWatch wallet. After a 3-week wait, I get a message with a generic “can’t verify your identity - contact DMV”. 🫩

According to my #AppleWatch, I had the best sleep of my life last night. It was a great sleep. 😊

Betterment sent email out from an unauthorized user promoting a #scam. I wonder if anyone fell for it. Seems like this is pretty bad unauthorized access and should be a bigger deal.

About once a month, we receive a false alarm for a fire in the 40-story apartment building where I live. We’ve grown accustomed to the alarms, and none of us react anymore. I can’t help but feel a sense of dread about this becoming a tragic event in the future. 😒

First week of 2026 done. Only 51 to go! 🫠

This #Lenovo laptop screen looks pretty cool. It rolls out to be a huge widescreen. Finally, a use for those bendable screens that doesn’t involve smartphones. But will it run #Linux? 🤔

Newly introduced #Samsung refrigerator seems like one of the most hellish nightmares to put in your kitchen. Voice-controlled door opening is the start of the features no one asked for but is the manufacturer’s highlight.

#Linux (ok technically #GNOME) wants to be more mainstream by removing good features. 😂

Shocking. Not one of these toasters at the top has an app, service, or internet connection to spy on me. Are you telling me people don’t want to download, register, and subscribe to a service to toast bread?! 🤯

Just past midnight and still full from dinner I finished 4 hours ago. A rare treat of unlimited #kbbq. Started off thinking 2 hours wasn’t enough time but I was about done after an hour… so so good.

Kind of have locations all over the place now.
