Well, in Germany. Seems like a great fit for Germany, too – precision optics and mechanics and zero digital complications.

Well, we’re clearly not in the center, for one thing.

Eh, it still could if anyone would make it a priority. I’m not a Jobs or Apple fanboy by any stretch, but I think this is selling him short.

That will probably come when EV marketshare is higher and innovation plateaus. I definitely appreciate the phone thing as someone typing from an iPhone SE. I also think phone batteries degrade faster than cars, right? I think my phone is fr

I was holding an external USB floppy drive the other day and the form factor, the tactile experience and the satisfying ejection mechanism got me fantasizing about a floppy jukebox with one song per disk. I’m sure it would be dope, but even

The list goes to 48 (!), in case you’re fooled by the self-promo and “PS” after number 20.

ProcessWire mentioned! Didn’t expect that in 2026, but yes, I also use it a lot. Sites just keep chugging.

I hope so, but if this goes awry in any way, especially if – god forbid – they lose the crew, my fear is it’ll be a blow to the American hegemony that will be very hard to recover from. Orange man is bad, but I think something like that wou

It’s difficult to imagine something more psychologically damaging than WWI trenches. Where can we read more about this?

It’s pretty clear that OP was referring to cunnilingus.

To be fair, I would assume that the base, or in this case the carrier, is the only place where they would have the reception to broadcast their location, right? You probably don’t have cell service while out and about planting weapons on ma

On the contrary, it’s unfortunate that this space can’t just be an island of stability, where things keep working the way they always have and new features are added unobtrusively. Instead we get surface-level change for the sake of change

I agree that it paints both sides as silly, but it does so incredibly badly. This is evidenced by, eg., the comments on Letterboxd, who all seem to either think their outgroup is lampooned (yay 5 stars) or their ingroup is slighted (grr 1 s

Indeed, the Aeron chair, which became a design classic and the apparently the best-selling office chair ever in the US, only came out in 1994. So about the same time as the web. Not sure if it’s the only office chair design with a dedicated

Well, company scrip specifically IS actually illegal, so it must be something slightly different.

It would be legal to never pay it out in real money at all, if other marketplaces are any indication. Like “store credit” or gift cards. You can’t get it out of the walled garden and the walled garden unilaterally controls the value.

Fun fact: I learned yesterday that that expression was popularized in English only as recently as 1991 by none other than Sadam Hussein when he referred to the Gulf War as “the mother of all battles”. At least that’s the story. Apparently i

Is this supposed to be a diversion from something else? It’s so over the top, even for this timeline.

Usually an invasion entails an intent to capture territory and occupy. A suicide terror attack is qualitatively different even if it’s large-scale. The boots on the ground could just as well have been rockets, whereas an invasion needs a lo

I mean the word “vaccine” literally specifically references cow pox, so it’s already broadened. No reason not to go up another level.

Particularly weird impulse for technically inclined people… Although I must admit to the guilty pleasure of gleefully using Chromium-only features in internal apps where users are guaranteed to run Edge.

This is basically how we do it in .NET. With Dapper it’s particularly neat sometimes because you can just pass an object that you were using anyway, and it will match parameter names to its properties case-insensitively. I.e. Query("se
