Fuck Donald Trump and fuck anyone who supports him.

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

DHS Hunts Down 67-Year-Old U.S. Citizen Who Criticized Them in Email

The Department of Homeland Security is using a little-known tool to go after its critics.

You know, the different border radii for apps on #MacOS #Tahoe doesn’t bother me as much as I thought it would. Maybe it’s because I’m still stuck in a Windows mindset of having one app maximized 98% of the time.

Mark Webb @mkwb.me · 9d

Just so there’s no doubt as to what side I’m on… FUCK ICE. FUCK TRUMP.

I might not have a big platform, but I think it’s important to share my views on what’s going on just as much as anyone else would.

I really need to reset my sleep schedule. I hate going to bed at 6pm and waking up at 5am.

Three months after I posted about trying to switch my workflow to #Mac, I've managed to complete it, now using Windows for only about 15% of my regular tasks. Mac is just better, especially since Windows is basically bloatware at this point.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

Trying to switch my workflow from Windows to #Mac is harder than I thought it would be. I think part of it is using a Windows keyboard with Mac, but there’s also just a lot of Windows-only apps that don’t have a good alternative (that I’ve found, anyway) on Mac.

Are you Slightly Thrilled? I’ll shoot an email off to YouTube today to retract it. Thank you for reaching out to me.

Mark Webb @mkwb.me · Oct 16

Yep, lesson learned. Don't provide high quality copies of my artwork on websites anymore because it will inevitably be stolen and someone will inevitably profit from it.

Mark Webb @mkwb.me · Oct 16

Even though you'd prefer to resort to poorly written insults, I thought you'd like to know that I've already submitted a retraction to remove the copyright infringement claim. I do find it interesting that you created a Bluesky account just to message me about it though.

Mark Webb @mkwb.me · Oct 16

You're not the only one who used it. You must have a pretty uneventful life if you think my post referred to only yourself. Must be a pretty damn good logo if you used it in the first place though!

Mark Webb @mkwb.me · Oct 15

That lovely feeling when you find out YouTube channels are using your custom artwork without your knowledge or permission... yeah, sure, I could take it as a compliment that people like my artwork enough to use it, but instead, I decided to just submit copyright infringement reports.

I just used ChatGPT to develop a WordPress plugin that lets people connect their Roblox account to an existing WordPress account. I couldn't find an existing solution and I don't know how to write plugins, but after like nine hours of troubleshooting and refining the prompts, IT FINALLY WORKS.

I GOT THE RARE DISCORD RINGTONE TODAY

Mark Webb @mkwb.me · Jun 24

Yep, I went back to iOS 18. Maybe I'll try the iOS 26 public beta in July.

Mark Webb @mkwb.me · Jun 16

I can’t wait until iPhone gets call screening in #iOS26. Maybe companies (and people) will actually use it properly instead of just hanging up. I’m probably expecting too much though.

Mark Webb @mkwb.me · Jun 15

Yep, I put #iOS26 on my daily driver iPhone. Let’s see how long it takes me to regret this.

Mark Webb @mkwb.me · Jun 9

Oh, I am so tempted to run #iOS26 on my daily driver iPhone. I'm definitely dropping the beta onto my iPad since I don't use it much anymore, but do I risk it on my iPhone? Let's see what /r/iOSBeta says first. #WWDC25

Mark Webb @mkwb.me · Jun 9

Looking forward to #WWDC25! First year in a long time that I am fully back in the Apple ecosystem.

Mark Webb @mkwb.me · May 19

Apparently I just passed 1,100 hours in #HITMAN #WorldofAssassination across PS4 and PS5 since January 2021. I guess I really like this game. Maybe I'll stick with it. #Agent47

Mark Webb @mkwb.me · Apr 6

PS5's #Dualsense controller has spoiled me. There's so many #PS3 and #PS4 games I'd like to play (or replay) and because there's no #PS5 haptics, I kinda don't want to.

Celebrate PlayStation's 30th anniversary with a very special look behind the scenes at Sony from someone who witnessed it all: former chairman of Worldwide Studios Shawn Layden.

One of my favourite interviews in a long time:

The big PlayStation 30th anniversary interview with Shawn Layden: "It was a fight to get the Sony name on the machine - they didn't want to be associated with it"

#From is one of the best shows on TV right now. It sucks that I'm going to have to wait until 2026 to see what happens next. #FromTV
