By body decided to wake me two hours too early today and my mind is paying the price 😵

@nasser The "minimal phone" seems like a good candidate but I don't think it'd ship to me in time. 😅

@nasser I kinda wish the Boox Palma 2 was an actual phone instead of a phone sized tablet 😅

Here’s a fun SVG trick I just learned. If you set the fill or stroke properties to currentColor using CSS, your SVG will be the color of the text around it.

This is great for auto-changing light and dark modes because it means you don’t need multiple images – the SVG will just change color appropriately.

Thinkin of getting a "travel phone" for my trip next month. Anybody have suggestions for phones that don't suck? I just need it to take a SIM and be able to set up wifi hotspots.

@prushforth like for typing? It's already in unicode IIRC sobit can be rendered.

Kinda wish I wasn't living in interesting times, NGL.

It'd be cool if there were indigenous languages recognized as "official languages" in . Low key wish we had the option to learn them in school instead of (in addition to?) English or French.

Why is it that websites refused to understand the only reason we're using ad blockers is because they upped the number of ads, blasted them everywhere, with pop-ups and sound, and movement, and flashing lights, and God knows what else.

A couple of static ads has never been a problem.

I run uBlock Origin or other ad-blockers in every browser I use.

Sometimes I get the "hey, you're blocking ads, we can't make money" popups. From otherwise agreeable news sites.

Then I think to myself, if you just ran the ads yourself, from your own site, without the adsystem trackers involving Meta/Google/Amazon, then the ads would probably get through.

The ads themselves aren't the problem. It's that publishers want to send all the data and most of the revenue to someone else.

Great article, “How a Biofilm’s Strange Shape Emerges From Cellular Geometry” in Quanta Magazine.

Here are biofilms grown by researcher Lars Dietrich, all from the same bacterium, fed different nutrients.

Everything is fun and games until you need to mock a function three levels deep in the class hierarchy 🤪

I "love" how we need to keep on studying things that are flat out good for society while bad things just get rolled out without the same onus of proof.

Things that need to be proven over and over and over:

- Universal Basic Income
- Walkable cities prioritising pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit
- Low speed limits for cars
- No-strings housing for homeless
- High taxes for the rich

And the list goes on and on... why do we make it so hard to improve our society while making it so easy to ruin it?

Skreech. Gonna figure out why this random Android device's TCP stack is so janky.
