• I’m happy to see Threads has taken a step towards integrating into the Fediverse. Read more here.

  • If you can’t stand being alone, you’re as lonely as a desperate stray. If you thrive in solitude, you’re as free as a sovereign eagle.

  • Finally got Mastodon up and running on my own VPS… after four failed attempts.

  • I had no idea Timbaland teamed up with Malte Marten on a meditation music project last year. This is incredibly soothing. They created a unique and immersive listening experience.

  • Today I earned an Honours Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science with distinction from Western University. It might not feel like a huge employability boost these days, especially with AI and layoffs shaking up the industry. But still, it’s a great feeling to see years of hard work finally pay off.

  • It’s such a shame that tracks purchased from the iTunes Store today are still in AAC format at 256 kbps. Apple Lossless (ALAC) and Dolby Atmos (spatial audio) are not available for purchase. They’re only for streaming or offline downloads within an Apple Music subscription.

  • When did Instagram start to include a downvote button ( ↓ ) in every comment? Honestly I’m not a fan of it.

  • Back in 1980, KFC had around 6,000 locations across 48 countries, pulling in $2 billion a year ($2 billion in 1980 is roughly $7.66 billion in today’s dollars).

    Fast forward to 2023, and the brand had grown to nearly 30,000 outlets in 145 countries, with annual sales reaching $2.83 billion.

  • JavaScript short date-time format:

    • United States: Tue, 02/18/2025, 1:58 AM EST
    • Canada: Tue, 2025-02-18, 1:58 a.m. EST

    Without a doubt, the Canadian short date looks cleaner and more visually appealing, and the “a.m.” (or “p.m.”) style has a classic touch. However, it’s four characters long. Also, in the long date-time format, the word “at” appears between the date and time, whereas in the short version, it’s simply replaced by a comma. I dislike seeing more than one comma in a timestamp, so on this site, what you actually see is a hybrid version: Tue, 2025-02-18 @ 1:58 AM EST.
