a blog post by my friend eevee which is, y’know, preaching to the choir about exactly what you think, but. yeah. https://eev.ee/blog/2025/07/03/the-rise-of-whatever/
The rise of Whatever

This was originally titled “I miss when computers were fun”. But in the course of writing it, I discovered that there is a reason computers became less fun, a dark thread woven through a number of events in recent history. Let me back up a bit.

End Of 10 CampaignMay 28

The End (of Windows 10) is nigh!

On 14 October, #Microsoft will end support for #Win10.

This will turn hundreds of millions of computers that cannot upgrade to #Win11 into security risks and #eWaste.

Yours may be one of them!

But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again?

The con crud is gone and the photos are sorted.
Here's one from a party!

A cormorant! They are always to far to get good pictures of them. I'll definitely keep trying to get a better one!

I like the idea of alt-text for images, but I don't know how to write them.
How much detail is enough?
For example: "starling (bird)" vs "starling, a bird the size of a small pear, black plummage with small white spots on the tip of feathers, yellow beak"

@arstechnica I'm so happy to see this, I absolutely loved my Pebble Time Steel

... But I've also moved on. My Garmin watch is so much more capable and the only thing Pebble offers that I'd miss out on is the interface, which I much prefer over Garmin. Sadly I think I'll pass.

@arstechnica That's totally awesome. I have never been able to find a watch again with pebble's unique featureset.
