IRL borrowing material from House M.D.

I adopted a cat a couple of months ago. Every time I run a sink she comes running. It’s like her call or something. I don’t know what she’s expecting.

I work as a software engineer with other software engineers. Even software engineers and UX designers using the internet that way. Talented ones. Many of them - maybe the majority. It takes me a second to get over my astonishment when they share their screens. Not only astonishment at how overboard ads have gotten w/o an adblocker, but also that this particular person doesn’t use an adblocker.

So many people aren’t well-informed about what ad networks or doing, or how different the web experience could be.

Frankly, the cybertruck depicted in this cartoon looks better than the ones I’ve seen IRL

It’s actually quite old and has gone through stretches of inactivity, but appears to be kept in working order in its git repo, and recently has been getting maintenance patches.
