Saturday Morning Coffee

Good morning from Charlottesville, Virginia! ☕️

I made it back home yesterday after a delayed flight and an unplanned overnight stay in Dallas and I’m happy to be here. I was able to kiss my amazing wife and sleep in my own bed. It’s amazing how uncomfortable someone else’s bed can be, especially as I’ve g in otten older. 😀

I hope you enjoy these hand picked, artisanal, links. 😃

On November 12th Thomas Kurtz, the co-inventor (along with John Kemeny who passed in 1992) of the BASIC programming language died at the age of 96.

BASIC was the first language I learned and I’d say I owe my career to it.

RIP Mr. Kurtz. 🪦

Dan Milmo • The Guardian

In a post on X on Thursday, the author of The Shining and Shawshank Redemption wrote: “I’m leaving Twitter. Tried to stay, but the atmosphere has just become too toxic.” Referring to the rival platform launched by Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta, he added: “Follow me on Threads, if you like.”

I’m glad he finally made it somewhere else! Now all he needs to do is turn on Mastodon support for his Threads account so I can interact with him from the Fediverse. 😃

Federico Viticci • MacStories

Today marks the return of a very MacStories-y feature in one of my longtime favorite apps, which – thanks to this new functionality – is gaining a permanent spot on my Home Screen. Namely, the RSS client Unread now lets you create custom article actions powered by the Shortcuts app.

Unread is just killing it! John is on a tear adding new features and fixing bugs.

Manton Reece

I’m @manton on most networks, @manton.org on Bluesky, and @manton@manton.org on the fediverse. These are all managed by Micro.blog.

Yep. You can run everything through Micro.blog if you’d like to see Mastodon and Bluesky accounts natively. Oh, yeah, and there’s that whole blogging thing you get with it. 😃

Well, for some reason, last week I got the notion to re-try my RSS reader. Let me tell you, it was insta-awesome! It feels SO GOOD to be back on RSS. It lets me just read articles from the web — crazy, I know. RSS makes websites legible, stripping out all the distracting garbage.

I think RSS is pretty swell myself. I’m so fond of it I built my own feed reader.

Ukraine is granted permission from the Biden administration to fire U.S.-made long range missiles into Russian territory.

I’m happy we’ve done this. Poor Ukraine is going to need every tactical advantage it can get NOW. Pretty soon the Orange Turd will takeover and Ukraine is gonna be in trouble.

Tim Hardwick • MacRumors

Apple is facing an almost £3 billion ($3.78 billion) lawsuit after British consumer group Which? on Thursday alleged that the company breached competition law by locking millions of its customers out of its iCloud service and charging them “rip-off prices.”

I have a lot of thoughts around this and it would be nice to see Apple open the users choice of storage up in a way that makes it transparent to the user. We’ll see what terrible solution they come up with to make it so unattractive to the user no one will choose to use it.

The Guardian

The 40-year-old Minnesota native, who retired in 2019 citing the physical toll from a series of major injuries over the course of her 18-year career, told the New York Times that she had “retired with no intention of coming back”, but was startled to discover that she was pain-free after undergoing a partial right-knee replacement surgery in April.

Having a knee replacement was a freeing experience. Free from pain and free to move about without thinking about where I’m putting my foot. But, I cannot imagine putting on skis and going down a hill at breakneck speeds.

Pro athletes have a different gear than us normals.

Good luck Lindsey! 🍀

On Bluesky, you can set your website as your username. This is one form of verification on Bluesky, and it’s our version of a “blue check.” We highly recommend that official organizations and high-profile individuals do this.

I thought I’d drop a link in here for this older post since Bluesky will let you set your own domain name. Mine is set to @fahrni.me. I love it!

Programación Multiplataforma con Xojo: El Santo Grial

Cuando decimos que somos una comunidad abierta, vamos en serio. Entre nuestros miembros hay incluso compañeros que dicen que la cerveza sin alcohol sabe igual que la normal. Así que, aunque aquí somos todos muy de nativo, nos encanta ver qué otras soluciones existen para no tener que estudiar 18 lenguajes diferentes.

Una de estas soluciones es Xojo. Xojo es un entorno de desarrollo multiplataforma (y de referencia cruzada) que permite la creación de aplicaciones nativas para macOS, iOS, Android, Web, Windows, Linux, Raspberry Pi y Consola… ahí es nada. En esta charla veremos sus cualidades y fortalezas. Yo, personalmente, muero de curiosidad por que llegue esta charla. ¿Tú no?

Donde y cuando:

Próximo miércoles 16/10/2024 a partir de las 19h en el espacio Puerta de la Innovación, c/ Toledo 110., Madrid.

Hi!! I was wondering ..... if you would be so kind as to send Sam Winchester over to @misha-moose-dean-burger-lover 's blog, so she could have her own Sam Day?? Please?? It is literally her dream??

no

[destiel-sucks-i-know-that-now]

@royalnugget42  @xojo “It’s just a joke!” Says ever Destiel shipper that gets called out for their shitty meta.  It’s shitty because actual good meta, fanvideos, and yes, even jokes are based on textual evidence.  Destiel shippers/hellers have been enabled so long in the Destiel bubble that they are devoided of critical thinking, so when their shitty metas and videos get called out, they can only sputter with “it’s a joke!” for the past 10 years.

Tell me, was “it’s just a joke!” when Destiel shippers accused Jensen of h0m0phobi@ when he wouldn’t play along and pretend Dean and Cas are secretly buttfucking?  Was “it’s just a joke!” when Destel hellers not once but twice hosted online campaigns to CW to fire Jared and turn SPN into the Dean & Cas buttfucking show?  Was “it’s just aa joke!” when Destiel minions bully fans, actors, crew, and even bully a network executive off twitter just for telling the truth, that Dean is canonically straight and not bi for Cas?  I know what my answer is, what is yours?

[oh-writing-my-writing]

If they’d been gross before - this was taking it to a whole new level. Literally

Sam pinches his eyebrows together, nose scrunched in reaction to the ridiculosity unfolding in front of him. Too engrossed in himself - themselves - to notice Sam bitchfacing in their general direction, Dean stands with his hands on his hips, and Cas in his head. He’s staring himself down, in a very Dean kind of frustration - but his expression is clear enough to belong to a particular ex-immortal, kinda-sorta-angel of the Lord.

They’ve been talking within (heh.) themselves for ages.

“Jimmy felt healthier, Dean.” That’s undoubtedly Cas. Serious, grounded - somehow, tragic. “I must cure your -”

“- do not say cholesterol, or so help me -”

“Fine.” Cas, again - maybe Sam was imagining this, or maybe his voice really does come down half an octave. This way or that, Cas projects the word with the sort of insufferability that’s long been associated with Dean’s stubbornness. There’s a ponderous pause, like he’s not quite done yet. “But you’re bigger.”

It’s kind of amusing to see your brother choke on a simple, yet easily mislaid, ‘you’re bigger’, delivered in pointed deadpan, and your best friend’s dialect. Especially when it’s his own voice saying it. 

“I mean, there’s - Dean? - more space.” Cas stops abruptly. “Dean, what are you doing - ?”

Sam looks on curiously, as Dean thumps his chest to regain his breath.

“In what kind of a possession do you not feel me dying, Cas?” Dean throws back, obviously exaggerating because he’s stopped coughing. “What are you, detached?” He’s returned to the slightly irritated voice Sam’s matched with the man standing in front of him, for around thirty eight years now. 

“You’re not dying.” Cas informs him. (Himself?) “And I’m very attached.” As if to prove his point, Dean - Cas - brings his hand up to touch his own cheek. Grazing the skin, gentle, his fingertips trace along his jaw, all the way to his chin. 

It’s kind of weird to look at, but Dean’s own flustered face makes it more than worth it. 

“Shuddup. And dude - stop that.” Dean again. “The hell are you doing to my voice, anyway? What’s wrong with the way it is?”

“Nothing. I think it’s lovely.”

Cue the blush. Apparently, Dean still had control over the parts of his face prone to reddening when he was embarrassed. Though, paired with Cas’s naturally stoic demeanor, it made for a comical display.

“Then what’s up with the seven-cigarettes-before-breakfast voice? I’d thought that was a custom Jimmy thing.” 

Cas pauses. Or Dean does. Maybe both of them do, and Sam wonders if they’ve figured out how to talk inside their head - but because blessings are rare when you’re a Winchester, of course they haven’t.

“That - wasn’t on purpose.” Dean’s voice confesses, a little forlorn, and a lot more apologetic than Dean tends to go for. “Perhaps it’s my thing.” 

That makes sense. And honestly, makes it easier to tell them apart. Sure, they’ve spent enough time together for Sam to figure out who’s speaking, with the intonation of a single sentence if they’re arguing, but for the rest of the time? It’d be a lot more convenient. 

“Huh.”

“I’ll try to stop -”

“Dude. Forget about it.” Dean immediately cuts him off. Sam raises his eyebrows, knowingly, but neither of them are paying attention to him right now.  “Doesn’t hurt. I, uh. Just didn’t know it could go that low.”

Dean smiles, but in the absence of flashed teeth and gums, it’s closer to Cas’s reserved ones.

This was going to take some getting used to, even for Sam, and he was just the blissfully-ignored spectator. He knows Dean and Cas have their work cut out for them - and they were going to stumble into mishaps, and march straight into misunderstandings, but as they ultimately always did - they were going to come through.

Not to mention, some things were going to be hilarious. Eating, for example. Showers, Sam fleetingly thinks, wickedly. Or sleep - because Dean would need it, and Cas would remain wandering in his consciousness all night. When compared with the arguments over being watched when he sleeps? Sam knows Dean’s going to cause a ruckus.

But, end of the day? Sam figures that if they’re ever going to get a move on, he needs to step in.

“Dean - uh, Cas? Can we - ?” He clears his throat, tentatively. Tilts his head in the direction of the impala, and holds a hand out for the keys. “I could drive.”

Cas hands him the keys from Dean’s pocket, while Dean protests his indignance. “I’m driving -”

“I’m not sure where we’re at, motor-functions-wise. Hand-eye coordination isn’t all we need.” Cas returns, matter-of-factly. “Possession is easier. I’ve never shared a body before.”

“Well, guess what, smartass?” Dean throws back, and the thing which keeps happening, where Dean cuts himself off and proceeds to tell himself off, is not going to cease being amusing for a very long time. “Neither have I. Just - sit back, and enjoy the ride.”

“I can’t. I’m inside you.”

Dean starts to fluster again. Yeah, well, take the backseat in there!”

“Dean, there’s no backseat in you, unless you mean your -”

“Guys.” Sam breathes out, patiently. Dean looks up at him, with the magnitude of both their stares. “I’m all for communication, okay? But if we could all just wait until we’re in the car, so I can plug a goddamn aux in before you start discussing backseats - I mean, semantics -- which, just to be clear, I’m not judging, I’m just wanting an out - that’d be great.”

Dean seethes, pinkfaced, but he remains silent, and that’s clearly the most affirmation he’s getting from there. Cas is the one who directs a slow and understanding nod.

So Sam huffs out a short breath, and the three of them pile into their car, with just Sam in the front. He starts the engine, distractedly inserts one of Dean’s tapes in the deck, and decides to hum along to tune out the increasingly growing weird conversations in the back - for their sake, and at this point, also his own. 

Truly, if it had been obvious before? This was something else, entirely.
