Unpopular opinion, I like the categorization Apple’s Mail is doing. I’ve been using it for a week now and I find it really useful. I think the digest view is what’s really doing it for me.
I deleted over 200 mail rules, I’m going to give Apple’s categorization a shot. Now that the feature is on iPad and Mac, I’m going all in!

I changed ISPs recently and had to change some of my network gear which meant moving to a new subnet. I’ve always used DHCP, there isn’t anything too unconventional about my setup. Everything, laptops, phones, smart home devices, etc. has moved over to the new subnet fine. My kids’ Chromebooks (from school), however, continue to be attached to the old subnet. I’ve tried “forgetting” the network, rebooting, flushing caches, nothing works. I continue to believe Chromebooks are shit!

This is so true:
If you think woke is the problem, try reading the US Constitution and amendments. Really read them. Pretend you didn’t know it was the Constitution. One woke idea after another. Basically if you don’t believe in woke, you’re in the wrong freaking country.

I use #Hugo for my blog, and I have a number of embedded tweets using the built-in tweet shortcode. If this shortcode is unable to fetch the tweet when the site is building, the build fails. As such, I’ve been seeing a lot of build failures because of deleted tweets and deleted twitter accounts lately.
