@arstechnica i was actually watching it while it happened. (Lurking, as you fellows call it.)

I'm still pissed about the fall from grace CNET had these past few years. If only someone better bought them (i.e. literally anybody but Red Ventures)

Why do you like Mastodon (or any open source Fediverse app of your choosing) the most? (You can choose multiple choices)

Boosts appreciated for reach.

@rolle Something else: I can use it on a Raspberry Pi 3 without needing to sysrq-b it if I scroll too far.

I love how optimized the web client is, and the ability to use other clients if needed (i.e. Toot)

@arstechnica Ford really just killed off literally every car except the Mustang, then made the Mustang into a compact SUV.

C'mon now.

Chess.com, Hans Niemann have made their peace over 2022 cheating scandal

It was the most serious cheating scandal since 2006 World Chess Championship ("Toiletgate").

@arstechnica Man, this was the craziest chess drama ever. Imagine using a vibrator to cheat in a chess tournament.

(Personally, I have no opinion on how that'd feel.)

@arstechnica The Z Flip 5 looks like one of those "leaked concept models" you'd see on Instagram or 4chan.

tip of the day: A LITTLE REDUNDANCY IS OKAY!

It's fine to link to a common action more than once! It's okay to direct users to a related nested menu from a different one.

Just had to google because the option on to turn on Do Not Disturb based on which Wifi network you're on...is in neither the Do Not Disturb menu, nor the Wifi menu!

(It's in Rules)

@SirTapTap I mean, I'd be okay with it so long as there was a functioning search feature.

Sadly, it's Android... (Which is ironic for an OS made by a search engine company.)

@SirTapTap I think it might be a problem on my end, or they changed how it worked in an update.
