Stats
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?! 🤯

![An unsettling image of what looks like it might be an ordinary power strip. However, this is a photoshopped picture of an Amazon Sponsored product listing for a SUPERDANA Power Strip Surge Protector with 12-14 USB charging ports and 66 AC outlets. The majority of the "product" is a grid of USA style AC sockets. A comically short 7 inch extension cord is attached to one corner. The product listing says it's for Home, Office, Dorm, Gaming Room, [and] Fire. Indeed, using this would be very likely to cause a fire.](https://dusty.ninja/fileserver/01K3SGMB6G9NSVBC83KP8078Q1/attachment/original/01KDP591AH8WT0BB360387ZNKE.png)
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.

"Duolingo Used iPhone's Dynamic Island to Display Ads, Violating Apple Design Guidelines"
I've already gotten pissed at Duolingo for some other reason I can't remember and deleted the app... so now I can't get angry and delete the app now.

This green flower dress (the most often re-used dress in #StarTrek history) was originally created for Alsia, played by K Callan in #StarTrekDS9's "Rivals". Look how much fun she has wearing it! 😊
I'm going to list all the re-uses of this dress in this thread, including weird appearances and bloopers.🧵 1/11
Why It’s a Tough Time for House-Flippers
“It seems like a pretty easy way to get rich quick. But for every success story, there are many tales of flips gone bad.”

I thought this was a great read. For the past 15 years I've visited China a lot to see family and such, and I've built up an impression of China that lines up pretty much exactly with what Dan has written here. He hits the nail on the head, with fantastic and coherent writing.
This looks like a fun #movie. The trailer is exciting enough that I’m setting myself up for disappointment…

The monkey paw on this is instead of 1 mobile browser (Safari/Webkit) that needs to be targeted on #iOS for web development, something like 8 are needed with 2-3 different JavaScript runtimes.
This actually will push more developers to make apps because the browser is no longer consistent. I remember as a non-decision maker, there was a sizable population of #Apple employees pushing to allow multiple browser engines to ruin the experience of the web in favor of apps in the App Store.
Primary objection of multiple browser engines was security. Apps get abandoned all the time and browsers are already a huge target. Privacy is the other: popular browsers like Chrome are purely built for surveillance of the user.

Update: 2026 still same as 2025. Maybe it will end better? 🤔 https://dusty.ninja/@bryan/statuses/01KDWCJX8B08XF6FCFNF62YN3C
I’m still stuck in 2025. One more hour of this nightmare. Can someone in 2026 let me know if it is better?
Thanks!
I just hand-ground my #KonaCoffee beans. The grinder is definitely made for showing off because gripping it hurts your hands. Anyway, that’s my hipster activity for the day.

People who don't like AI probably also disapproved of Dr. Robotnik imprisoning woodland creatures inside robots and forcing them to attack Sonic and Tails. 🙄 Just say you hate progress.
Love this. Watch the bird fly.
AI can go all the way to hell. Limit 2!
