Top left is Get Out. Pretty decent thriller

I give it a spin every month or so to see how it’s getting on. I’m on macOS.

Every time I walk away unimpressed, despite its maker’s very deserved esteemed reputation.

I’m probably not seeing something. What I do see, however, is that I can’t search my scrollback history, nor can I select text without a mouse.

Also, pressing cmd+, on macOS opens the config inside TextEditor (yes, a separate GUI app) rather than in $EDITOR. It’s a small thing but I couldn’t figure out how to change it. Coming from Kitty, this drove me mad.

I’m not sure who Ghostty is for. My feeling is it’s aiming to be an excellent, polished experience for casual terminal users. But I didn’t see anything that Kitty or just tmux anywhere can’t do.

Literally me yesterday trying to decipher Baidu’s PaddleOCR docs. Have half a mind to aim Claude Code at the URL and just be like ‘plz help’

This was one of the worst-case outcomes simulated by experts, highly unlikely but bad enough to warrant evacuating the village ten days ago.

Whoever made that call must be extremely relieved right now.

My interpretation is that humankind (or in the comic’s universe ‘beingkind’) has in general been a nightmare for tens of thousands of species. We’re by far the most invasive species on the globe, we’ve destroyed entire ecosystems, we’ve created institutions of suffering, and we’ve driven countless species to extinction.

So yeah, there are probably a couple of species that would like to settle the score if they could

Been following Synergy for a while, hoping they’ll announce gamepad/steam deck support. The art style looks amazing!

Broke: file names have a max character length.

Woke: split b64-encoded data into numbered parts and add .part-1..n suffix to each file name.

Do not – and I really cannot stress this enough – give any of those bears cocaine

Now do ‘ocasional’… ‘ocassion— fuck, ‘occasionnall—

Screw it

What an awesome name for a cat!

Hahaha that second of hesitation right before the edge

This looks amazing! The trailer reminds me of Oxygen Not Included and the Kingdom (Two Crowns) series. Like the music and the art style, and happy to see there’s full controller support. Curious to see how it plays on the Steam Deck

Locally sourced and by free-range developers

Don’t just put things down; put them away. I have to remind myself each time, but it really helps to keep clutter off the table or desk.

Another: when I sit down at my desk, I do a quick scan of everything and assess what I won’t need, or haven’t needed the past few days, and remove it. (Anything decorative is obviously exempt.) Again, I’m not perfect about it – there’s an old scribble pad with no blank pages that for some reason I can’t bring myself to throw out even though I haven’t opened it in over half a year.

Nice, new job search constraint

Yeah, odd choice. The Guardian is one of the few remaining outlets with actual credible integrity

Any time I read the Kitty docs I’m just in awe of everything its maker, Kovid Goyal, has built for it. Like, not just individual features but entire protocols, which other terminals then adopt.

I just wish remote session persistence was more of a priority. Goyal dislikes tmux (to put it mildly) but doesn’t suggest an alternative to those who do their work on remote servers. If I’m already organizing my work in tmux over ssh, I might as well do the same locally as well – which unfortunately means missing out on some of Kitty’s best parts.

From what I’ve read the former president actually got quite a lot done. It just didn’t get talked about as much, at least in international news.

Man, those were good days…
