evan's thoughts


@sharonk.bsky.social i think they just thought people didnt like it. if the polling shows they do, they’ll hop on board

@ourflagmeansbeth.bsky.social i’m so sorry beth, my thoughts are with you both right now

@thesamethyst.bsky.social mt bagel rocks hard for this

@goose.art as someone from NJ, disagree. but PA is

@jeanmachine.dev I think it depends, I turn off desktop icons on Windows because I hate the way in which Windows automatically add shortcuts all the time. But on Mac, I love desktop icons

@jeanmachine.dev gnome if anything is TOO opinionated! why aren’t there desktop icons! where’s the dock!

@junlper.beer you should definitely check out some of Alex Hanna / DAIR institute’s work.

@evan.exposed like its weird for your big criticism to be “they aren’t making a profit!” rather than like, sycophancy, addiction, and misinformation in a post truth world. but it turns out thats because he was mad they weren’t like, running a business well. lmao

@mgsiegler.com I don’t think that’s the lane they’re aiming for anymore. I think the real question is, will any be good enough to take on the steam deck and eventual steam console

@mgsiegler.com I think the next gen is them exiting the business as it exists. it’s basically shaping up to be a PC you put under your tv, and they’ll probably allow third parties to make them too

@aspekt.gg feel like we’ll have more than just this remake by then

@bell.bz hey jordan have you seen this

@evan.exposed a funny tangent is when I was interviewing at Uber it went into transactions because iCloud saw it from Uber and I almost didn’t see it. even though it was a person @ uber! it’s insane and entirely the fault of the mail system. Hey was the only one to get this right

@evan.exposed screening is just, the thing that works. my iPhone screens calls / texts now and I don’t need spam blocklists. When I had Hey, it was so easy to just mark stuff as spam / train my list. Especially for email, it is so so useful

@donoteat.bsky.social no

@evan.exposed look if all they do is paint a single bus line it’s exactly the same as like in line boarding and better shelter stations and more frequent service and

@evan.exposed “but my budget” two of the top 5 richest companies in the world are headquartered here and just mandated RTO. just figure it out

@evan.exposed “but why” ok i leave my desktop on standby and not sleep mode and i want the keyboard to still have the backglow lights but not keep my living room illuminated at night so i need to give it a timeout period

@doctornerdlove.com god this is SO true

@gay.jeanmachine.dev what! what

@evan.exposed oh yea that’s fair. i was thinking more grift that gets people money / jobs given the ai talk haha

@g2wolf.bsky.social ah i see you’ve found yourself playing deadlock

@evan.exposed right but what was the “thing” this time. there’s always a thing

@rmondello.com yup completely agreed

@rmondello.com those who use it as 2fa are missing the point right?
