1. Context: If a post in my timeline is a direct reply to another post—even if they are not someone I follow—the parent post is shown.
2. Persistence: MastoBlaster will always take me to the latest/newest post when opening the app. This behavior makes extra work for the user, having to manually scroll backwards in the timeline to find where I was last. I personally prefer (at least the ability to configure) having the app remember my place in the timeline, allowing me to manually catch-up, while the standard tap-at-top-of-screen shortcut to should still function to move to the newest post.
3. Full threading: While not a feature of Mona, it is a feature of snac. MastoBlaster does not seem show/indicate the nesting level/depth of replies in a thread.

(You have to give his shows credit for having great casts. And to the uneducated outsider, they are good shows. It is only when you add him to his politics and his shows' subliminal story-lines that you realize the overt libertarianism is covert MAGA.)

The entire US "healthcare" industry is built upon this fallacy that their health should be tied to their continued employment. There is no health, nor no care, in the American "healthcare" industrio-complex.

I mean, seriously!?‽ For all of the supply-chain attacks in the past decade, how can you justify not changing your habits?!‽

Kids put up with a LOT from adults

Alt...

Tumblr post by roach-works look, here's the thing: alice in wonderland's enduring fucking charm is that it perfectly captures the vibe of being a very tired and annoyed child who is nonetheless required to play along with adult nonsense. alice is dragged from place to place without warning, forced to play stupid games with no good prizes, grilled over her schooling and manners and recitation and dress, scolded, judged, insulted to her face, sent away, given gifts she didn't ask for and doesn't like, corrected incorrectly, been subject to shifting and arbitrary rules, and then when she gets snappish with all this bullshit everyone acts like a little girl's temper is the end of the fucking world. alice in wonderland isn't a drug trip or a nightmare or a metaphor, that's just what being ten years old is LIKE. that's why kids love it so much. even if they can't quite articulate how, they recognize themselves in it.

Weekend plans.

Today's macos discovery: I use Skim to read PDFs. If you togggle the Highlight Tool, any text you select gets highlighted!

This makes balancing my credit card statement so much easier...

To hell with AI, more innovation like this please.

(And macOS is clearly the descendant of NeXT. I'm glad that Haiku exists as a re-creation of BeOS, though. Its use of extended attributes is still my favorite aspect. I think it's unfortunate what Palm did to Be.)

Young me: "These Girl with the Dragon Tattoo books are fun reads, but this 'all the wealthy and politicians are into human trafficking' plot is a little over the top."

Older me: "I should probably re-read those Larsson books to see what else he was right about."

@joel Metal is just noise to those without listening skills. Same argument goes for any other music genre that people claim is noise. Gaining said listening skills, you may think it's bad, and that's OK, but calling it noise is just ... lazy.

People are debating the masonry layout, and I'm creating strange layouts.

Gruber was commenting on a post about how great Apple's TextExit was because of its support for the "stable" RTF format. But he fails to acknowledge that RTF is constantly updated to mirror Word by Microsoft.

The awesomeness of BeOS's StyledEdit was that its files were actual plain text files, and readable by every other system. The "styles" were all saved as extended attributes in the filesystem.
