Time to play the game that's sweeping the nation - Terminal CopyPaste Roulette!

- Does right click copy?
- Does right click paste?
- Does highlighting by itself copy?
- Does highlighting and pressing enter copy?
- Does right click paste?
- Does Ctrl V paste?
- Does Ctrl SHIFT V paste?

PLACE YOUR BETS!

(why does every single terminal do this differently?)

Shoutout to macOS for never knowing how much disk space it has. "There is no space left on your disk" excuse me there's 6GB free according to Finder. Try harder.
GrapheneOS will remain usable by anyone around the world without requiring personal information, identification or an account. GrapheneOS and our services will remain available internationally. If GrapheneOS devices can't be sold in a region due to their regulations, so be it.
To move an #Azure Arc resource from one subscription/resource group to another, it takes a TON of clicks in the portal, as well as an unexplained 3-5 minute wait time (WHY?). Do it in Azure Cloud Shell, you can cut down on SOME of the clicking around (some functions of the Azure Portal have no 1:1 CLI equivalent though, such as re-assigning Maintenance Configurations in Azure Update Manager), but the wait time is still there, and the overall shoddiness of this entire platform is exposed when you do this in practice.

This update helps organizations accelerate adoption of phishingโ€‘resistant credentials by allowing administrators to opt users into Passkeys and deliver Passkey registration nudges during signโ€‘in.

Anecdotally, I'm not sure sign-in time is the best time to prompt users to enroll Passkeys. I get that it's a convenient time, but both in my professional and personal life, I see so much enrollment happen because the user is just trying to get past to prompt to do whatever they came here to do. Users don't necessarily understand that they've just enrolled a synced/not-hardware-attested Passkey that won't necessarily be on all of their devices the next time they need to authenticate , that they could lose this Passkey if they retire this device, how to ensure Passkeys are synced where they need them to be, and what their fallback methods are, if any.

It often feels to me that users are tricked into enrolling a Passkey without any user education and then they hit a lot of friction later when a Passkey isn't available.

Posts that contain the hashtag "fblifestyle" have to be some of the cringiest stuff I've ever seen. Like why would you brag that you're addicted to facebook?
I saw a post about blockchain on LinkedIn, in 2026. They were playing it straight. Wow.

Systemd merged age verification to comply with California state law.

If you want to enter a birth date, I recommend "Friday, 13 December 1901 20:45:52".

I like this for a few reasons:

1. This is the earliest date possible for a 32 bit datetime integer in C.
2. It's malicious compliance.
3. It's obviously faked.
