Knock on wood, but it seems like #Railway's usage-based pricing may be *way* cheaper than #Heroku's for my hobby projects. I should always gamble on the side of me not being able to market 😄

For some reason I didn't want to switch from default screenshots on mac to clean shot. How wrong I was! I've been on clean shot for a few weeks and its totally worth it. Just give in and get a setapp subscription.

Microsoft attempting to force people to switch from Windows 10 to Windows 11 has somehow resulted in a 10% increase in the market share of Windows 7 https://www.windowscentral.com/microsoft/windows-11/windows-7-usage-skyrockets-as-users-refuse-to-upgrade-to-windows-11-in-wake-of-windows-10-end-of-support

EDIT: Before replying to this post, please see this reply about how apparently the entire increase in Win7 market share is due to like one person in Singapore installing it a zillion times https://chitter.xyz/@Vordus/115301165497461902

Windows 7 usage skyrockets as users refuse to upgrade to Windows 11 in wake of Windows 10 end of support

What's the state of #Devise lately? I'm currently running off of a main branch commit because this Rails 8 fix has not yet been included in a release. Last release was over a year ago. https://github.com/heartcombo/devise/issues/5705#issuecomment-2496064620
