Called a little drive up oil change place nearby to see if they do state car inspections. I already knew they did because it was on their website but I wanted to chat with someone and get a feel for their customer service.

Instead I had to talk to an AI phone agent who wouldn’t put me through to someone. Now I pretty much don’t want to give them my business.

So instead of saving them time AI just cost them a customer.

Well, someone’s happy

Capturing actor Robert O’Reilly as the bug-eyed high chancellor was tricky but oh so satisfying. Getting the LEGO pieces in the correct colors was another matter all together. You might have seen some of my frustrations in my LEGO posts these last few months.

The result was totally worth it however. This is likely a one-off creation. #StarTrek #DeepSpaceNine

Amazing work! Love to see this come together.

TIL crows, starlings and similar birds only *look* black to us — they’re actually very colorful in ways human eyes are unable to perceive. 🤯

Remember that next time people can’t see your “colors”.

Some colors just require different eyes.

Can web developers stop fucking with scroll bars please? No website is so beautiful that it justifies losing the ability to see how far the page scrolls down. I don't give two shits about your design vision.

My old manager at Apple sent me this video from David Pogue about screenshots on the iPhone and I have a bit more background on it to share
