bummer how the system color picker on windows is...what it is.

A color picker panel straight from Windows XP. Two columns, left column is a section titled "Basic colors" with a 6-by-8 grid of color wells. They have an embossed effect like you forgot to turn off default CSS styles on a button. The right column contains a color spectrum with a crosshair along with a luminance slider. Shit is nasty, there's banding galore.

If you poke around Windows 11 enough, you will be able to find UIs that last changed before I was born

here to tell you not to buy cork coasters. they just stick to the bottom of your drinking vessel, they’re not weighted correctly. they look nice but it’s not worth it.

im generally pretty Type A but I think my limit is fitted sheets. there my attitude sours to "fuck all of this so much, this'll do"

@samhenrigold Oooo! I can fold fitted sheets. I spend hours watching a YouTube video while yelling “THIS IS WITCHCRAFT!” but, now I can. 😃

@samhenrigold when vine was still a thing (RIP) i posted one at the end of a school year where i said "to all of you graduating and moving out, here's how you fold a fitted sheet" the balled it up, dropped it, and said "there ya go"

i feel the world lost something when we stopped being able to line up at a brick and mortar store to buy a boxed operating system on launch day

@samhenrigold As someone who lined up to get those early OSes it wasn't as fun as that picture makes it out to be. They were probably over tired and a bit delirious from not eating/drinking for many hours.

@samhenrigold Still thinking about this Ventura retail packaging concept by @BasicAppleGuy

macOS Ventura retail packaging concept, featuring the default orange Ventura wallpaper on a svelte black-bordered box.

for me, it’s biscoff ride or die. all day every day. you can squeeze some lime on it and it tastes like a key lime pie. i mean, come on, that’s world-altering.

they made an ipad that ran macOS. it was called the 12 inch macbook, it was great, and i will never, ever forgive you all for not buying enough of them to keep it around.

@samhenrigold people have to buy things they don't actually want to keep them around because why?

i would like for my state of Connecticut to try and get back the western reserve. ohio clearly isn’t putting it to use and i think it would be fun to have a disjointed (wireless?) land area.

@samhenrigold Excuse me but I have to disagree with you there in my Ohio town we have not one but TWO (2) stoplights and one high school that they’re tearing down to build a smaller one next door and only, like, one insane asylum but they stopped doing that super forever ago ago, like, 1993 so frankly sir I am offensive

Just look what being disconnected is doing for Michigan and Extra Michigan

the computer is actually called the “iMark” but everyone in the room had Boston accents

i thought i was really into movies but it turns out i just like eating snack foods in a reclining chair in a mostly-empty dark room.

@samhenrigold gotta winnow it down to the core business of industrial political manipulation before the next election

Honestly I'm just hoping ChatGPT means the end of lorem ipsum overuse. Give it a theme, generate some paragraphs of varying lengths and you're balling.

@samhenrigold that what I did a few months ago in one of the projects. And was a huge success, everybody left impressed of how precise that dummy text was.

why do I support right to repair? simple: i want to upload my own MIDI files to my washing machine to play when it finishes a cycle without voiding my warranty
