i like that the "his name is big boobs look him up on your school computer" meme became so well-known that googling "big boobs" actually brings up Uni the cat now

🟢 <-- wondering if the guys who haven't made reliable *laptop* hinges/cables in a decade have made a reliable folding smartphone on the first try

picked up a $10 serial mouse on Kijiji for a friend's ancient DOS laptop and it came with a catalogue.

i want the Logitech Kidz Mouse.... do they still make mice that look like mice..

i mean, would've presumably happened within a few weeks of regular opening and shutting too, but still. what if it wouldn't have 🫣

> the camera cable also has a sharp crease but it still works, for now.

i wiggled the screen a lot to see if it would stop working and it stopped working. what is my problem

dreamed i was on holiday somewhere and wearing an orange dress, bit weird since i own zero orange clothes or dresses irl.

also don't think i ever left the hotel room, so not a very interesting holiday either

the camera cable also has a sharp crease but it still works, for now.

it's exciting to see "flexgate" up close at last! this happens on almost all mac laptops to this day, btw 😓

i didn't enjoy this at all. it probably won't work for very long (because i did a bad job).

in my defense, i don't have a microscope, and im also not any good at soldering

the smallest monarch butterfly caterpillar ive ever seen, about the size of a grain of rice, omg

just found out that toads are a social construct

no more chrome updates for macos 12, and by extension the last good apple laptops 🥲

thankfully, firefox (which i was already using anyways) supports as far back as 10.15, so i won't have to learn how to use linux or oclp for a while yet.

yes i have an m1 air, it's weird and big 😓

also completely ruins one-off contact changes to make like "dumbass" or "satisfactory small woman" or whatever show in blue for the recipient..
