No but I want to see the world burn when 32-bit unixtime overflows in ~10 years

@samhenrigold Crap. I forgot to RSVP. Can you put me down as a “maybe” for 100 million seconds from now?

@samhenrigold No big brings me more joy to see (in other people’s software…when it’s in mine I want to scream).

Mike Beasley

@samhenrigold i made this my twitter bio for a while just to screw with anyone who might be working with the twitter api and you’ll never guess who the first person i fooled (it was me)

“sir, A24 is making an Elon Musk biopic directed by Darren Aronofsky”

the famous photo of Bush first being told about 9/11 in a classroom
Claude Zeins

@samhenrigold I hope that phenomenon where two similar movies come out at around the same time so I can use this pic and say “sir, a second Elon Musk biopic is being made”

@samhenrigold Utterly terrified that the trains will careen out of control without that additional $2.90.

Sam Gross

@samhenrigold “the fact that I had to wait 15 minutes for a train was a crime!”

i need to sully my fresh OS install with adobe’s bloated spyware for illustrator. pray for me

aeberbach

@samhenrigold I thought I knew how bad Adobe was then I took a close look at just how many processes they start on boot… for a simple Acrobatic install.

What about that rumored 5K HDR ProMotion monitor though? And why tf does the studio display cost more than an iMac?!

@samhenrigold my man out here with stacks of Benjis forgetting about the common man

i bring a sort of “FTC consent decrees were meant to be broken!” kind of vibe that our legal compliance department doesn’t really like

sam henri gold

(this is a joke on Twitter’s utter bungling of their multiple settlements with the FTC and I fear for how they will handle the upcoming election. i feel like it’s important to note this is not related to my actual company)

just a hunch but i don’t think “YOU CAN DO IT PAPPY!!” was on the prompter

if you were involved in the decision making process in making opening a compose bin a pain at best and totally inaccessible at worst, fuck — and i cannot express this enough — you.

A NYC compost bin. On the side, a decal reads “Download our app to unlock this bin” and a QR code.

moving to a new place and the last guy took the Fios ONT box. so now i just got this loose fiber optic going into my living room with no means of connecting it. on the upside, if you stare directly into it, it temporarily blinds you which provides minutes of entertainment.

sam henri gold

i’m gonna test every hole and loose wire in this apartment in the worst way possible. someone tell me not to lick this RJ11 jack (i’m gonna do it)

IPmonger

@samhenrigold I had removed my original ONT years ago and when I most recently resumed FIOS service the new ONT was the size of a router! I was so pleased!!!

it’s ridiculous that we hold restaurants to such a high standard when the bar for what constitutes dinner when WE make it is so different. i’d like to see a Michelin star restaurant say “the chefs special tonight is just some trail mix” and if you ask for something else, they go “the chef isn’t feeling like making ragu tonight. there’s just a lot of pans and stuff to clean…”

Chris Barlow

@samhenrigold “the chef says it’s a microwave popcorn night. Also the wine list is not available because the chef doesn’t think you’ll finish the bottle before it turns.”

tried to go to sleep last night but couldn't shake the thought that the Toy Story logo is just Gill Sans.

BenRiceM

@samhenrigold one of my teachers in college forbade us from using any of Eric Gill’s fonts, on account of, well… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Gil

really fantastic episode of the vergecast with @pluralistic; it’s got everything — tech policy, Docker, malicious compliance, the works. theverge.com/23938533/self-hos

there is absolutely no reason for me to buy this. i do not need it, I just packed my TV that I bought in 2020 in its original packaging for moving. it works perfectly fine and I barely watch TV.

and yet, it has wound up in my cart.

An LG OLED TV for $550 down from $1300

the concept of ordering and buying checks is so insane to me. i’m paying money to an institution for the privilege of the most yeehaw-ass way to transfer thousands of dollars — spelling out the amount of money and then writing my name in cursive. and this is the only valid way to pay for shelter.
