The cookie wizard is the most annoying thing that I’ll continue to do on principle.

Even at work I’ve seen developers embarrassed at having others look at their code that was honestly quite good.

I re-subscribed to Netflix for the first time in about a year and a half a couple of months ago. After watching a few things periodically, I'm already lukewarm on the content. I just got an antenna so I can watch some local things (news, sports, etc.) and I'm not sure I'll bother with Netflix going forward. I see another cancellation looming in my future, and that'll only come faster if they decide to increase the price yet again. Most of the time I already feel like I'd rather be reading a book than watching TV.

I’ve bounced back and forth between Irssi and WeeChat over the years, but I’ve settled on Irssi.

It also seems fitting since the same ad campaign was used for some of the first ever banner ads on the nascent web.

They're amazing stickers. I recently started a new job and was happy to adorn my laptop with one.
