Sometime when I wasn’t paying attention, iOS made a change so that now, when apps ask for notification permissions, the “no” button is in bright blue, and the other levels of allowing permissions are in gray.

I love that. It means that users who just reach for the default will get spammed with a lot fewer notifications.

If I had a time machine I would go back in time just to screw with myself by telling young me the truth:

"Your TV will be connected to a computer that tells you lies"

"A college education will become worthless relative to its cost"

"The biggest dipshits in history will be running the whole country, including the Oval Office"

"You will go to Petsmart to buy weed for your dog"

War room at #Tesla HQ:
Musk: “What’s #1”
little people: “They don’t want you to be a nazi”.
Musk: *TURNS ANGRY RED* “skip everything about me changing”
little people: “FSD not a steaming pile of 💩”
Musk: *TURNS CHERRY RED* “next”
little people: “#Apple #CarPlay”.
Musk: *deep sigh* “ok fine.”

As road/street humps and bumps go, I’d prefer only humps. Some of the bumps in #Hawaii are so harsh that I want to move out of my building just to prevent future suspension problems.

Extremely annoying.

Ingress nginx for #Kubernetes is being retired. Got its own little blog article… never used it once since I started using Kubernetes as far back as v0.8 (going off memory of the version that warned you not to use it when you installed it). I thought everyone used Traefik? Pre-Traefik it was NodePort and a Netscaler in front.

Was going to buy a battery for my #AppleWatch to swap myself, but I can’t find a vendor that will send a battery to #Hawaii. I guess for something so small, they just stuff an envelope, and USPS isn’t doing batteries in Hawaii or Alaska. Bummer.
