"This is not the web we want." @t after laying out the case against #Facebook and others that manipulate users. #WCUS #indieweb

We have a window that’s something like 12 ft /4m x 6ft/2m. And it’s single pane. It’s gorgeous, but also, bye-bye heat!!

Someone just emailed me to ask for a file and I was going to respond "Sure thing!" but then saw that "Sure thing!" was in the list of autosuggestions, so I had to change it to "Gotcha, Cap'n!" just on principle. *shakes fist*

AirPods Pro 2 Feature Suggestion: Real-world Replay.
