On its own, the title of this post is just a true piece of trivia, verifiable with the built-in subst tool (among other methods). Here’s an example creating the drive +: as an alias for a directory at C:foo: […] The +: drive then works as normal (at least in cmd.exe, thi...
It took just under three years, but Google has finally caught up and overtaken its AI competitors. You remember how it was. When OpenAI released ChatGPT at the end of 2022 and created a world-wide sensation, Google was caught napping— and panicked. Despite the fact its...
What do you do if you develop a lightweight browser that doesn’t support JavaScript, but you once chose GitHub as the home for your code? You’re now in the unenviable position that your own browser can no longer access your own online source repository because it requires Jav...
Landlock is a Linux API that lets applications explicitly declare which resources they are allowed to access. Its philosophy is similar to OpenBSD’s unveil() and (less so) pledge(): programs can make a contract with the kernel stating, “I only need these files or...
Netflix, the company that once begged you to chill, now wants you to suffer. It's quietly disabled casting to most TVs unless you're rich, nostalgic, or own a TV older than most pop stars. The company's support site (spotted by Android Authority) now clarifies that casting...
I recently stumbled upon an unsettling sculpture in Paris' Louvre Museum — a stone carving of a woman's corpse, complete with exposed intestines, maggots, and detailed decay. It is the cadaver monument of Jeanne de Bourbon-Vendôme, a French noblewoman who died in 1511. —...
Disney wants you to stop looking at your phone in the parks, so strap a Zuckerberg-powered surveillance headset to your face instead. The big idea? Meta's AI glasses will whisper directions to churros in your ear while quietly recording everything around you, all so you can...
Tesla's trillion-dollar pay package for Elon 'From the Heart' Musk appears to be all optics, as the goals that represent real progress for the company are as unattainable as the popularity he so craves. In reality, Musk faces low odds of garnering any of the higher...
I just spent way too much time browsing Amazon's Japan Store. It's dangerous for anyone who gets excited about well-made office products, tools, toys, and home goods you usually can't find in the United States. The store curates products directly from Japanese companies and...
A Paranoid's History of the United States might be the most intellectually honest conspiracy podcast out there, because host Joseph L. Flatley doesn't pretend the line between documented government malfeasance and fever-dream speculation is always clear. The show occupies a...
Linus Torvalds released the 6.18 kernel as expected on November 30, closing the last full development cycle of 2025. It was another busy cycle, featuring a record number of developers. The time has come for a look at where the code came from for this kernel release, but also ...
A Non-Euclidean Perspective collects 45 years of Robert Anton Wilson's political essays, from 1960 to 2005, and reading it today, his thinking feels more urgent than ever. From the publisher: Years before he was famous as the co-author of the Illuminatus! — Read the...
Learning with Lyrics creates educational videos that explain how things work through songs. I wish this had been around when I was a kid—for some reason, I remember what I learn in these videos much easier because of the singing. In this video, we learn about Velcro. —...
Plex is a flexible media platform that lets you organize, catalog, and stream your collection of movies, TV shows, music, and more from a personal server to just about any device, both locally and remotely; it not only supports seamless sharing with friends but also includes ...
Opera is rolling out new Google AI features across its Opera One, Opera GX and Opera Neon browsers. This is the result of the browser maker's long running partnership with the search giant, and now includes support for the latest Gemini models. The new Opera AI appears as a...
Paperhand Puppet Intervention creates larger-than-life outdoor puppet shows in North Carolina. When I think of puppets, I picture small marionettes, but these performers actually wear their puppets as costumes. This looks like such a fun, whimsical show to see in person. —...
I'm usually not a fan of Honest Trailers or Honest Game Trailers. Despite featuring the great voice-over artist Jon Bailey (AKA Epic Voice Guy), I just don't enjoy watching things I love get torn apart. I've been playing ARC Raiders like a full-time job since its release...
Absolute loser Pete Hegseth allegedly ordered the U.S. military to 'kill everybody' on a suspected drug boat and then joked about it with a rocket-launcher-wielding Franklin the Turtle meme. That's not a satire headline. That's just the Monday after Thanksgiving in Trump's...
Back in the 1970s, someone had the brilliant idea to stick a transistor radio inside a toilet paper holder. These gadgets came in all the classic '70s colors like avocado green, with little tuning knobs and speakers built into the front. — Read the rest The post This 1970s...
Just when you think the person 'in charge' can't stoop lower or get more outlandish, another day passes and proves you wrong. On Thanksgiving, while Americans worked hard serving others—at service jobs or volunteering to cook and deliver meals to folks in need—the...
