It’s honestly remarkable. And it keeps getting upvoted too!

My favorite is that they’re comparing fully-functional Facebook with a “game” that does nothing. Uh… cool.

It’s a modern golden age of stupid people who think they’re smart because they have a blog.

I got 7/10! Really enjoyed it, thanks for sharing.

Edit: I did abysmally on today’s so yesterday must have been beginner’s luck!

This appears to be his personal blog in the GNOME ecosystem, not GNOME’s official blog. There are a list of them on https://blogs.gnome.org/

He was the Executive Director of the GNOME Foundation for four months in 2025. Here’s gnome’s “farewell” to him last August, and he has his own article about it on his own blog about it, too.

Great tips!

A moisturizing after-shave lotion can help if you get skin irritation shaving too close or get in-grown hair. If I’m being especially aggressive or using an aggressive blade, my skin is way more irritated if I skip the after-shave lotion.

The key is to look for moisturizing lotions instead of alcohol-based “aftershaves.” I have used and seen others recommend Proraso balm, as an example.

I apply it, leave it on for a few minutes, then wipe the excess off gently with a cloth.

The prevalence chart is really interesting!

15-25% of people experienced it daily 30-40% several times per week 20-30% several times a month 10-20% rarely or never

I’m a “daily” person. I’ve even had entire albums stuck in my head.

What’s funny is, the phrase “Molyneux’s failed legacy” is accurate without this specific game being named “Legacy.”

I totally agree! I have actually made all the icons grey, so now full color looks insane

You’re not a coward, that comment is horrible advice.

It’s good for “oh I oughtta…!” online, but in real life there are significantly more professional/adult ways of solving the problem than asking semi-rhetorical questions that barely make sense in the hopes of guiding someone toward the desired outcome. Please don’t actually do that.

Asking “what does the employee handbook say about X??” isn’t a “gotcha.” You can literally go look, then tell us.

It’s ok to ask not to be recorded in a small meeting. You don’t need to bring up your unfamiliarity with the employee handbook.

I agree with you on the power strip under the toilet. That’s insanity.

Frigidaire makes refrigerators now that look vintage but are brand new. I didn’t find this exact model on the website, but I could see it being a modern “vintage” one.

Me too! And I had a similar thought.

My confusion seeing stuff in ~/Projects that I didn’t put there would have been funny. Like “…have you been watching me??”

I actually saw rabbit on the back-end too!

I blame all of the old “is it a rabbit, or a duck?” illusion drawings. Is the lady pretty, or ugly?

I really liked Rocko’s Modern Life!

The real reason they cite is also quite interesting. Twice as many leased electric vehicles are coming to market.

Analysts attribute the surge to a glut of hundreds of thousands of cheap pre-owned EVs that were purchased on leases in the early 2020s and which are now returning to market as those leases expire. According to credit bureau Experian, EVs will account for 15 percent of all off-lease vehicles at the end of this year, up from 7.7 percent in the first quarter.

This reminds me of Coyote Linux, a firewall distribution that I also used to run on a 386 from a floppy disk!

I mean, for good reason.

If I had to deal with shushtain I’d quit too.

Legitimately was going to say the same thing. Who would ever download this garbage?

The narcissism is embarrassing.

so not very vague at all.

Literally the first sentence is of the definition you posted is vague.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) is an international document adopted by the United Nations General Assembly that codifies some of the rights and freedoms of all human beings.

Some of the rights and freedoms? So, yeah, “not very vague at all”.

On the other hand I’ve never made any bones about the fact that I work to develop good products and if someone can make money on that good for them, but I fight for the best design for end users I can.

Your entire comment nailed it for me. Thank you for reading between the lines of my snarky annoyance and expressing it more eloquently.

I also love internal tooling and worked at shitty, bizarre places (General Dynamics, for one. Speaking of “places you’ve never heard of,” right?), and literally the entire reason to work there is to try make it better for the people who use the thing. Not doing that is preposterous to me!

Somehow the original author ignored the only thing I would care about. Or it’s there and I missed it.

This film has been debunked for decades. It’s funny to see how it’s debunked even harder as time goes on.

Of course this won’t stop people from still truly believing it.
