@mxsparks I use my dad’s recipe: crush a whole head of garlic into a stick or two of butter, whip, slather heavily on a split loaf of crusty bread. Throw it under the broiler and take it out just before it burns.

I just don’t understand why so many places describe something as “garlic bread” and then it’s like… the la croix of garlic bread. Toast that was briefly in the same room as some garlic.

People who upgraded to the Tahoe beta and couldn't get Steam to work: there's a new Steam beta out that's *finally* native on Apple Silicon and apparently works on Tahoe. https://www.macrumors.com/2025/06/13/steam-beta-adds-native-apple-silicon-support/

@phil and that's still fairly early game 😂😭

ngl I simply don't have the patience for some of the very late game Blue Prince puzzles. Game is just too dang big lol.

@rosyna 10.0-mode date/number formatters aren’t necessarily, I added locking for 10.4+ mode ones. If you see issues with those file ‘em please.

@rosyna ah cool. I missed that because it was right when I joined :)

@rosyna I don't have a full list handy but NSUserDefaults should be fine, and I somewhat doubt NSAppleScript is.

@rosyna any in particular on your mind? If you mean the collections, definitely not, but they did get CoW instead which is usually a nicer alternative.

@eramdam eating takeout on the shore is S-tier. One time @boredzo and I got Mexican fish and chips in Sausalito and sat by the bay, it was so nice.

today i learned that based on one line of dialogue in a single episode of the original series (that may or may not be a hallucination owing to space madness) the officially licensed blueprints of the starship enterprise from star trek (drawn circa 1975) include a six-lane, regulation-length bowling alley with spectator seating

i shit you not

and now the only thing i want is bridge crew bowling league night

This session has a plot twist at the end that qualifies as a cinematic masterpiece of the year:

the follow up

Slow websites are an accessibility problem. Just got signed out of the website to send my doctor a note about my ADHD meds because the website was slow enough that I got impatient while waiting for it to load and switched to doing something else, then forgot it existed >.<

“What???” #catsofmastodon

oh for fuck's sake what the absolute fuck.

This is the 100 year anniversary of humans having an idea of what the heck the sun and all the stars actually are. If you had asked a leading astronomer in 1925 what the sun was, they would say that it's basically the same as Earth, but very hot.

In Cecilia Payne's doctoral thesis she was the first to say, from spectral data, that the sun was overwhelmingly made of hydrogen and helium.

It was later described as "the most brilliant PhD thesis ever written in astronomy".

@jrose @madcoder @joe and the time I accidentally made it so swift_retain_n would fail if n==3

My workaround for a compatibility bug introduced by a compatibility fix itself introduced another compatibility bug, which I'm working around.

For my next trick, I'll backflip through three flaming hoops and then move to the woods never to be seen again.
