When Gregory Weyer, Domanico’s attorney, asked Huff if he loved living in Philadelphia more than he loved living with his wife, some of the people watching let out small gasps.

Good chance we're experiencing Delaware avenue/river conjoination, but I'm not going to go look.

Inspection of my double walled borosilicate iced tea glass reveals it has been transformed into a single sided manifold. (The inner wall cracked.)

European tracking companies can have a little user data as a treat.

What if gender reveal party, but for tariffs? Trump steps on stage, then an air cannon blasts a million confetti flags of the country that gets new tariffs.

Oh, shizzles, got a preemeptive text from peco that the storms are going to knock out power tonight. Don't panic yet, but stand by and be ready to panic.

Everyone needs to know Evanescence Bring Me To Life has more views (1.52B) than Lady Gaga Poker Face (1.49B).

Et tu, clang?

Reminder if you live in #philly that property taxes are due March 31. Too late to apply for the homestead exemption this year, but get on it for next year.

Wow, __builtin_dump_struct is an amazing clang feature, how did I never hear about this before?

$ cat test.c
#include <stdio.h>

struct nested {
  int n;
};
struct foo {
  int member_a;
  unsigned long member_b;
  char *str;
  void *ptr;
  struct nested nested;
};

int main(void) {
  struct foo f = {
    .member_a = 123,
    .member_b = 0x4141414141414141,
    .str = "foobar",
    .ptr = &f,
    .nested = {.n = 42}
  };
  __builtin_dump_struct(&f, printf);
}
$ clang -o test test.c && ./test
struct foo {
  int member_a = 123
  unsigned long member_b = 4702111234474983745
  char * str = "foobar"
  void * ptr = 0x7fff1df41b78
  struct nested nested = {
    int n = 42
  }
}

The original version of this feature was introduced back in 2018 (though it was reimplemented since in 2022).

The number of people fantasizing about the quality of the snow leopard release is really saying something. Instead of wishing for another release like that, you should be wishing for a memory that still works.

"Consumers’ Mood Sours"

They're not excited by new tariffs?

Oh man, it's been two years since the great chemical spill of 2023. I've gathered up all the great honks from that time in a limited edition anthology.

You know what would be way cooler than a backlit keyboard? A backlit USB port.

Microsoft forgot to renew another domain? The gift that keeps on giving.

For immediate release: The High Council of Honk Threat Assessment Subcommittee has reevaluated the nicole spam situation and changed its classification from funny meme to gross admin incompetence.

This relates directly to my explanation for why openbsd is "slow". Somebody does something dramatically stupid in a hot loop, but it happens to be optimized to hell and back on their platform, so they don't notice. Users will never blame the app ("works for me"), only the platform/os/etc.

Does anybody say tiktok is poorly coded? No, they say firefox is slow.

The gamestonk bitcoin bubble rocket lasted all of one day.

Windows has this bubble animation it plays when you touch the screen, which unfortunately looks exactly like an air bubble under my screen protector, and I find it very disturbing.

I am once again begging letsencrypt to stop sending me emails saying that they're going to stop sending me emails.
