Bienvenue ! Vous vous rappelez les blogs ? A une époque, ce site en était un. Maintenant, c’est surtout une archive de mes multiples comptes Twitter.

I find it flabbergasting that Pinterest, a site that is solely dedicated to showing pictures of stuff, still has this stupid dark overlay moving from image to image as you scroll, unless you take extra care to place the mouse cursor in the margins every time you stop using it

I started thinking, I hope Instagram doesn’t decide they need to show more of the captions… then I realized that must have been a factor in the scrapped UI redesign where you swiped between posts as if they were stories https://t.co/3ichygSBNw https://t.co/CZSpgLAoPH

La saison 2 d’American Gods m’ennuie, mais je n’arrive pas à décider si elle est effectivement moins bien que la première ou si je m’étais fait mon avis dès que le départ de Bryan Fuller avait été annoncé.

The minimize-to-dock animation is such a cute reminder of what used to be. I suppose Apple’s anti-fun brigade forgot it exists because they only use full-screen windows, which can’t be minimized.

I’ve spent so much time playing Globesweeper while listening to podcasts that I’ve got auditory flashbacks to a Call of Cthulhu actual-play campaign when I launch it.

Many of you will have seen this video before, but if not, take a look. It’s a great demonstration that cats and humans may share some aspects of visual processing that drive the rotating snakes illusion.

What Silicon Valley promised was the break-up of concentrated power.

What Silicon Valley gave us is greater concentration of power than ever.

Now five companies control America, instead of 100. And a lot of those companies are whiter and more male than the ones they disrupted. [twitter.com]

Si les promenades sont censées détendre, il faut que je change d’itinéraire. Je passe à chaque fois tout le trajet jusqu’au lac à imaginer comment je vais démonter la gueule du cycliste qui finira inévitablement par me renverser en plein milieu du trottoir.

It’s wild that Twitter is quite swift at taking down tweets that offend big media copyright holders even from verified entities but death threats to @IlhanMN sit untouched for weeks.
