Oh look.

Via Aaron Fritschner:

Justice #Alito says his wife Martha-Ann Alito had an altercation with neighbors about a "'Fuck Trump' sign that was within 50 feet of where children await the school bus in Jan 21."

Except... FCPS and ACPS were all remote in January of 2021. No children were waiting for buses

Apple introduced API that enables recording audio from other apps or the entire system in macOS 14.4, but it's poorly documented and there's no sample code available, so I decided to fix that: https://github.com/insidegui/AudioCap

Just a reminder, if you're in a state without access to abortion, there is a network of care, providing safe, effective, and free abortion pills and information.

I don't have a ton of faith in humanity, but I do appreciate how we've all decided to side with the orcas in the Great Orcas vs. Boats War. An orca could literally bite my arm off tomorrow and I would still be team orca.

If you see that I unfollowed you and then followed you again, I was looking at my phone and nodding off so my thumb hit the button. Then the little chirpy sound woke me up, and I saw what happened and fixed it. Not trying to be passive aggressive about anything. Thank you, now back to your regularly scheduled timeline.

The venerable Voyager 1 spacecraft is experiencing another glitch. Instead of sending science and engg. data, it is sending a 0101 bit pattern.

The problem has been narrowed down to the flight data system (FDS), which is not communicating properly with the telecom unit (TMU). A reboot did not help.

Stay tuned as NASA engrs work out a fix for this 1970's era computer, which has performed magnificently during its long 46-year journey to the planets and to outer space.
