@arstechnica That's like introducing rabbits into a new ecosystem, and then years later screaming "We're going to introduce wolves to cull the rabbits!".
Alas, I am #ScreamingIntoTheVoid.

This is just me screaming into the void about stupid games airlines play to maintain their “on time departure” rates. Like pulling away from the gate “on time” despite not having an actual take off slot for another … *checks notes* … 40 minutes 😐
#CrankyOldMan Peeve of the Day:
Heard a NYT nterviewer used the expression “taking a different tact” to mean “using a different approach”. I'm generally a fan of linguistic descriptivism over prescriptivism, and there is no loss of meaning here, so I shouldn't care.
But the word is TACK, as in “direction of sail across/into the wind”, not TACT, as in “speaking to avoid insult”.
Ok, I'm done. Sorry for the interruption. Carry on.
John Gruber and Jason Snell: with Creator Studio, Apple has enshitified its brand identity. (At about 1:30 of the podcast.) Apple’s move to ads and subscriptions is ruining its software side of their business. Which helped justify the premium price you pay for the, admittedly fabulous, hardware.

Accounting for every different version of every book, movie, show, or game really is a case of #ScreamingIntoTheVoid
I just want to say I did the things, not went through all this madness. Revisions exist that you might not even be aware that become the new canon or something, AAAAAAAH
