Playing hide & seek with a toddler is one of the most relaxing parenting activities I have experienced. At any time you know exactly where toddler is, and at any time toddler feels incredibly empowered thus happy.

I've said it before an I'll say it again: This entire project of identity verification with Apple/Google-account bound mobile devices is going to lead the continent down a dark, dark path into full technological submission to the US

I've been using url-highlight for years (and years) with FreshPorts - now I've decide to create a port for it. However, I'm not sure how to properly package and use the code. see https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=294236

Racism persists in the United States in 2026, because most people don't even know what it looks like.

Everyone's looking for some mythical hyper-racist person with a klan hood and a burning cross and Nazi tattoos, yelling the N word repeatedly.

But racism is not that. It's this.
