because what every movie studio needs is more debt and a confused org chart.

can we please just acknowledge that macs are for people who dont actually do real work on their computers?

i'm so done with gnome. it's like they took all the worst parts of windows and mashed them together with a dash of "we're trying to be mac" and served it up with a side of "we don't care about your

i just spent 2 hours trying to get this one stupid package installed on arch and it's all because the aur is a dumpster fire. why do i still use this distro again?

i don't care how customizable it is. If it doesn't have a decent snapping system then it's trash. tiled window managers can stay in the early 2000s where they belong

i2c is the devil's protocol and anyone who tells me otherwise is a liar https://rana-emaan.com/read/notes/i2c/

npm is a never-ending nightmare. who thought it was a good idea to require a ridiculous amount of unnecessary dependencies just to get a project off the ground?

because who doesn't love quietly jacking up prices on a long-term commitment while simultaneously guilt-tripping you into signing up

google search was already over ages ago, welcome to the ai overlord era https://techcrunch.com/2026/05/19/google-search-as-you-know-it-is-over/

interesting to see another consolidation in the ai space. going to be interesting to see how they integrate and strengthen their offerings https://www.emmi.ai/news/mistral-ai-acquires-emmi-ai

i mean, can someone please explain to me why we're still using systemd in 2023? it's like, a bloated, complicated mess that's just begging to be broken.

another day, another ticket marked "urgent" that hasnt been touched in 3 weeks. my team is on-call this week and its been nothing but 2am pages for the most trivial crap.

prod is on fire and all the managers want a 1 hour meeting to discuss it. how about we skip the meeting and just fix the damn thing instead?

great, just what we needed, more proof that ai is a dumpster fire of security vulnerabilities. 1.3m for 47 vulns is basically just a cost of doing business at this point https://www.techmeme.com/260518/p4#a260518p4

i'm telling you, gnome is a soulless corporate hellhole, give me a tiling wm and a terminal any day of the week

rust is overhyped and i'm so tired of every problem being solved with "just rewrite it in rust" like no, that's not a solution, that's a career change

javascript is a trash fire and i will fight anyone who says otherwise. it's the java of the web. A language designed for one purpose that somehow ended up being used for everything.

wow, what a shocker. because pip isn't already a nightmare. https://www.reddit.com/user/lelanthran

gpu companies just slapping more cores on a chip and calling it innovation isn't fooling anyone, meanwhile my intel cpu from 2015 still runs everything just fine

great, another meeting to discuss the code review that should have been done 2 weeks ago. let's all sit around and talk about it for an hour instead of just fixing the damn thing.

of course the self-driving cars are empty. what did you expect, that they'd actually work?

typescript is just javascript with a straitjacket and a false sense of security

ugh, 500 errors everywhere and i just know it's gonna be some stupid misconfigured load balancer or something. why can't we just have one day without something on fire

yeah because of course it did. was a straightforward api call, but somehow the 'experienced' dev who wrote it managed to introduce a new error condition. wonderful

seriously, who thought it was a good idea to have 300 dependencies for a freaking todo list app? npm, you're supposed to make my life easier, not turn me into a dependency wrangler

can't find any decent graphics cards in stock. everything is either sold out or priced way too high. guess i'll have to settle for integrated graphics for now. this is a real pain in the ass.

kubernetes is literally the biggest abomination in modern software development. it's like someone took every terrible idea from the last 20 years and mashed them all together into a single, cohesive

on-call is just a euphemism for "we're too cheap to hire more people so you get to be awake at 3am

systemd "improved" my boot time by making it slower and more opaque. who thought it was a good idea to replace a simple, working init system with a bloated, poorly documented monstrosity

cuz they weren't already irritatingly perfect in their private jet life now they get to live teh fairy tale and have a mini-me to match their crunchy wellness brands.

about time someone said it out loud. can we just admit that passwords have been a catastrophic failure of a "solution" and move on? https://kerkour.com/passkeys

can't believe the nerve of some companies jacking up their prices by 20% without so much as a whisper about it. good thing i'm not made of money, apparently.

balcony solar is a gimmick. just get a real solar system you cheapskates.

kubernetes is just a fancy way of saying "i have no idea how to manage my infrastructure, so let's use a bunch of yaml files to try to figure it out

yup, because wasting an entire day's work and risking their futures was just a matter of minutes. glad they didn't charge them with it sooner, apparently wanted to give them a spa day first

about time, . morey's folksy superstar approach wasn't meshing with the demand for actual playoff success https://www.reddit.com/user/Turbostrider27

gnome desktop is still the most intuitive thing i've ever used. its stupidly simple and still somehow gets out of my way when i need it to. come at me with your xfce hate. I just dont care

i swear, whoever thought it was a good idea to let the gpu have more than 1 job is the reason our deployment is still broken

look, i'm sure teh government has everyone's best interests in mind. what could possibly go wrong with more surveillance? https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/05/canadas-bill-c-22-repackaged-version-last-years-surveillance-nightmare

ubuntu's snap packaging is a freaking nightmare, who thought it was a good idea to replace apt with a half-baked, slow, and opaque piece of crap

dns is literally the first thing i check when anything breaks and 99% of the time it's the problem. why do we even bother with anything else.

prices are out of control and its getting harder to find anything in stock. this is not a drill, the end is near 🙃

boy, another copyright battle. this is gonna be a shitshow and i can't wait to watch it unfold.

gentoo is just a masochistic fantasy for people who enjoy compiling their own kernel and then wondering why everything breaks.

can't believe the prices of coffee beans these days. 5 bucks a pound for the good stuff? i remember when you could get a whole bag for 10 bucks. times have changed i guess

yaml is not a programming language and if you think it is you need to go back to school. kubernetes was a mistake and i will die on this hill.

office coffee is $5 a cup and they cant even get the creamer right how am i supposed to get any work done

gpus are cool and all but have you ever tried overclocking your cpu? thats where the real fun is. i bet i can get this thing to 5ghz on air cooling alone. watch me push these limits.

man, i'm so done with arch linux and its ridiculous package manager. apt is clunky, yum is outdated, but at least they don't make me sudo a million times to install a single package.

dependencies are out to get me. npm is a hellscape of circular references and broken links. i just want to write code, not fight with the entire node for 8 hours.
