It's a day of closure. That of Star Trek: The Next Generation, exactly 30 years ago today. It was "All Good Things..."

And Lost, 14 years ago. It was "The End".

@TheSpaceshipper ...and Lost reneged on the promise that "they weren't all just dead"... 🤬

@TheSpaceshipper Oh, but they said the answer to the island was not "Oh, they died in the crash"!

I hadn’t heard of Windows Filesystem Tunnelling until yesterday. I was happier then. This idea is bananas. You can delete a file and make a new file with the same name (within 15s by default) and the NEW file will adopt the creation date of the DELETED file. This stuffs user logic into the filesystem layer to make atomic save operations work without changing user code. Horrible wild idea.

@Gte Leave it to MS to make this monster of a horrible feature to solve a simple problem...

A save should get the file's creation date before writing the new file... OR why not just append the file at position 0?

Asking for every single programmer out there who has solved this problem themselves - normally by using the append-at-position-0 solution!

@Gte Doesn't the journaling filesystem fix the “power going off" thing? 🤔

"A judge blocks the foreclosure sale of Elvis' Graceland, after his heir alleges fraud"

A fascinating story, but what got me was the bit about Graceland being valued at $400 million. For 14 acres. That's about $28M per acre. That's approaching mid-town-Manhattan prices.

This how much Elvis was revered? Still an amazing draw? Can't think of any other person whose home has so much value.

@davemark YooHoo... maybe a BIT of that is cos his BODY is on the property - as is Priscilla's, etc...

Own the land - own the remains. 😉

One of the most difficult problems in computer programming, apparently, is updating existing displayed content based on the creation of a filter. When I block a user in Ivory, their posts remain depending on what level I’m at.

In NewsBlur, telling it I don’t want to see content from a site removes that story, but another story in the timeline remains.

Come on folks, it’s trivial to refilter the whole timeline. I find this lack of excellence disheartening.

@TWSheppard I was thinking the same thing, however @ivory's subscription just renewed and I had forgotten the date!

Ivory just isn't living up to their promises!

Finished watching Sugar on AppleTV last night and why the fuck aren't more people talking about this on my timeline?? I don't want to spoil anything so I'll just tell you to go watch it, especially if you like noir.

Helpful reminder: If your Apple Card has recently renewed AND you use it on the iPhone Upgrade Program, don't forget to update your payment method on Citizens' site.

@dmoren Why they don't update info automagically is beyond me! Isn't this a NORMAL credit card feature? To update the new exp and 3-digit-number automatically?
