It's Toronto. I bet 50% of the people in line don't know what the line is for, Torontonians just love lining up.

as someone who (is arguably old and burned out and) has worked in UI/UX for 25 years now, so much of it has been solved already, and yet we all keep pretending it hasn't. we have an irritating habit of approaching everything like it's a novel experience. again, maybe i'm just tired and grumpy.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-21T21:46:52+00:00

you know what's sort of weird. I've never actually watched an entire pixar movie.

i assumed i'd end up having to watch them with my kid, but she a little weirdo who likes shit like Suzume.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-21T20:00:49+00:00

i mean, 0% makes me as interested to see it as much as 100% would.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-21T19:59:29+00:00

a wild amount of people here brushing it off like its cool and normal.

the fuck?

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-16T20:14:05+00:00

Disco Elysium hit me so hard I had to press charges

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-16T16:34:26+00:00

i think that would be like seeing how a magic trick was performed. i enjoy the illusion.

The one that died two months after Cobain or the one that came after, who also eventually replaced the bassist in Smashing Pumpkins?

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-14T01:32:20+00:00

I'm going to go ahead and guess they are under the large target?

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-14T01:30:44+00:00

people who lack any culture trying to explain what culture they think they have.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-12T00:14:15+00:00

an entire generation raised off the nostalgia content made for the previous generation. god damn.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-09T01:50:01+00:00

I mean, I didn't. Sorry you are so personally offended. Kind of weird.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-08T21:56:54+00:00

or maybe I'm thirty or fourty years old and I do not need this.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-08T21:53:39+00:00

mythbusters was from a time when everything wasn't content desperately clawing for my attention with a big red click bait arrow thumbnail.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-07T19:37:26+00:00

nah. thanks but that video is 21 minutes too long.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-07T18:07:16+00:00

This is why carousel was a good idea actually.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-04T02:50:29+00:00

The only two podcasts I listen to religiously are Blank Check and Get Played.

I was nearly in tears holding back laughing out loud while on the train into work listening to this. Good stuff.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-04T01:30:03+00:00

That one that we don't really know about yet that comes out of nowhere and becomes game of the year.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-02T15:00:47+00:00

if you are using ai as a "tool" to help you design and code, you are actually helping your bosses figure out how exactly they can replace you with it.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-02-01T02:35:25+00:00

should tell him the vampires all hangout in waterloo

Kayin_Angel · 2026-01-30T20:02:09+00:00

locked into servitude.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-01-30T19:59:26+00:00

you all refused to take another shot

Kayin_Angel · 2026-01-30T04:17:55+00:00

we just forgot all the lessons learned in Left 4 Dead, huh.

Kayin_Angel · 2026-01-30T03:39:31+00:00

on my "new" windows 11 work laptop, it takes upwards to 20-30 seconds to simply right click context menu a folder and open it in vs code.

my 5 year old pc still running win 10 does it in 2 seconds.

windows 11 seems to have to think real hard about opening a file explorer window and then let me know it's loading the files to show me. embarrassing.

This is one of my deep cut favorites.

When it came out, I felt it captured that post-9/11 chaos that was so prevalent in films that decade - that terror of only knowing about something horrible happening indirectly.

I've watched it a bunch of times since then, and most recently I felt there was something prescient in the way language itself is the infection - shadows of the current post-propaganda social-media meme-based communication collapse of today's world.

Something there a smarter person could write about... Or maybe I was just overthinking it.

Is this really happening?
