Whenever I make (frozen) XLB, I whip up a quick dipping sauce with whatever's on hand. Today's was particularly good. Saving for posterity:
• Base of half Haku Matsutake Shoyu, half Ohsawa Nama Shoyu
• A quick pour of Eden Mirin
• A bit of rice vinegar
• A few dashes of Fly By Jing Sichuan Gold
• A dab of sesame oil
• Furikake on top

Queen singing "no escape from realgreggity" suddenly popped into my head last night, and then I spent a while trying to remember where that nonsense came from. One of my favorite Reddit exchanges of all time: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/3oqj4a/which_song_is_most_improved_when_all_occurrences/cw0ityk/?context=3

@Iconfactory Feature request for Tapestry: when browsing Bluesky, I don't want to see replies, but I also don't want to miss threads, which involve people replying to their own posts. Today, if I turn off replies, I also stop seeing threads, which means I miss out on a bunch of content. (Sometimes without even being aware of it.)

@Iconfactory Hi! Really enjoying Tapestry for keeping up with the firehose of news these days. One question: what happens if I’m up to date on my feeds, but some messages get backdated and/or a late refresh puts messages behind the most-recent cursor? Is there a way for me to know that I haven’t read them yet? Thanks!

@marcoarment Hello! I’m resucitating an old NAS and trying to figure out how to make it work optimally with Time Machine, Backblaze, etc. I remember you used iSCSI at one point but found it to be too much of a maintenance pain. Just wondering, did you ever try hosting your files in a read/write .dmg or .sparsebundle on an SMB network share? I’m surprised to find that this looks and feels like a real APFS partition when mounted but I can’t tell what the tradeoffs are.

TIL that you can mount and use an APFS read/write sparsebundle from an SMB network share! That is some wacky filesystem layering. (Wonder...

TIL that you can mount and use an APFS read/write sparsebundle from an SMB network share! That is some wacky filesystem layering. (Wonder what perf is like compared to writing straight to the SMB share?)

Samuel Adams makes a 28% ABV beer called Utopias. It's rare, very expensive, and really more akin to a sherry than an ale. I got a chance to buy one on sale recently, and I was delighted to see that the fancy-ass ceramic bottle was still topped with a basic beer cap beneath the screw top. Hilarious!

Money and quality have a very loose correlation in creative fields. This incredible roguelike shmup was made by a team of only 4 people, and yet I've spent more time playing it (40h) than the vast majority of AAA games. And now there's an update with hours of additional content! A true indie gem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfYZzQoPc8Q

I have been an enthusiastic user and proponent of the Meta Quest over the Apple Vision Pro, but with Zuckerberg's recent far-right turn, I will not be using the platform going forward. Unfortunate, since I was looking forward to dipping my toe into VR game development. Here's hoping that Valve releases something amazing in the next year or two.

David Keene is selling the Toronado pub after 38 years in operation. 😢 An old school Haight institution with no equal in the Bay Area. Hoping for the best but not optimistic that anyone else will be able to fill those boots. https://www.compass.com/notifications/emails/4b19767c-c5b5-46b4-b884-1c7f8f9846bd.html

Is there an intelligent tech forum out there that is not fash-aligned?
