    Upgrading to the Android 17 Beta 2 build seems to have deleted my eSIM profile which is an unnecessary distraction I wasn't quite prepared for...

    Just had a weird thing happen on #Windows, the login manager appeared to have crashed and loaded me into a brand new Windows 11 user account. Rebooting got it working again, but the first time around was also a normal boot so I'm not sure what went wrong there...

    Given how much more my Dad cares about my stock holdings than I do I'm surprised I haven't yet received a panicked call about Cloudflare cratering over the past few days.

    Why the hell is #Roblox on the #Twitch navigation??

    Twitch's navigation bar (top left of the website) showing text buttons for Following, Browse, and for some unfathomable reason: Roblox.

    The Glance dashboard widget for Lobsters has become effectively useless to me because I am forced to filter out the vibecoding tag out of sheer volume but have no way to do so on the widget. Filed a feature request to hopefully get tag filtering in that as well, otherwise I might have to figure something else out

    @botteaap This is also my own nightmare scenario because I no longer use GPG for anything other than Maven Central and I genuinely couldn't tell you when the current key expires and how to rotate it.

    My kingdom for sigstore.dev and Trusted Publishing through GitHub/GitLab so I never have to think about that garbage ecosystem again :blobUgh:

    @lesley Pretty sure SSH can be fixed by using Tunnels and the cloudflared CLI, but the additional complexity might not be worthwhile over just using git-credential-manager and OAuth2 with HTTPS.

    Been a long time since I've worked with #Cloudflare Workers and I had completely forgotten how nice it is to have production deploys take seconds instead of minutes. The local development story with workerd has also gotten significantly better so you don't even need to deploy to production most of the time.

    @b0rk if I have to look up the explanation for a particular option there's a 3 in 5 chance that I will be unable to use the search tools of the builtin man viewer to locate it. The search capabilities are too primitive IMO compared to what I've grown accustomed to with modern IDEs and I feel pretty out of my depth outside very basic search queries in `man`.

    Any Googlers able to shed light on why a Jetpack release notes docs bug gets put on the "[AOSP] assigned" hotlist? Just by name I don't really understand why AOSP and Jetpack have to be connected over fixing a bit of Markdown.

    @funkyidol CalDAV/WebDAV are supported out of the box so I connect Thunderbird on desktop/Fossify Calendar on Android to Purelymail and handle my calendar there, not too sure how inviting other people to your events works with this setup but I can try to look into a bit tonight.

    @funkyidol you're welcome! I will say Purelymail's name is _very_ accurate, so you don't quite get a fancy webmail or native apps but they do the core thing well enough that I've never had to ever think about email outside of paying them money.

    Can't really beat Purelymail on the price to reliability ratio.

    The history of my payments to Purelymail. I've paid 10 USD just now, and the last time I paid them was in 2022. In all I've spent 40 USD for 6 years of email services.

    @botteaap yeah Moshidon has been stuck in a bit of development hell with rebasing to the current Mastodon app codebase, there's progress on the rewrite branch but I don't expect a release anytime soon. Personally I ended up on Phanpy (github.com/cheeaun/phanpy) which has been great for 6 or so months I've been using it. Notifications not being instant is the only downside I've noticed but I don't care for them anyway so I just disabled it.

    Getting a nice veggie chopper might've been the best health decision I've taken outside going to the gym 5 days a week. It took more time today for me to air fry leftover tortillas to make nachos than it did to prep the big pile of homemade salsa I ate it with. Here's to copious amounts of fiber in my diet going forward :blobChefKiss:

    This is precisely how I ended up focusing more on build and automation in the past few years because that was the only viable way for me to continue having visible impact.

    Even when I was working at Obvious in a purely UI and product driven role as a consultant it was very hard to get buy in from companies who were literally paying for us to work on their Android apps and UIs.
