My new Mac Mini arrives soon. I can't describe how frustrating it is to turn on my PC every day and know that it's notably worse than it was the day before.
Microsoft has somehow shipped a bug in Windows 11 that makes the File Explorer flash white in dark mode. The bug is part of an update that was supposed to improve dark mode consistency in Windows 11! Oops. Full details 👇 www.theverge.com/news/836199/...

The first time I heard "Candy Cane Lane" by Sia it dealt so much psychic damage that I'm cursed to think about that song all year. Now that it's December I'm in constant panic that when I walk around any retail store I'll have to hear it again.

One cool thing Starbucks could have done instead of paying for all these ads in the Thanksgiving day parade would be to come to the table for the @sbworkersunited.org

I think it's time we admit that the last half hour of Elf sucks really bad.

Enough with these Luffy and Goku balloons. There's only one anime balloon I want to see in the Thanksgiving parade.

This is simply wrong! Tidal is essentially owned by Jack Dorsey!

Plenty to discuss about The Game Awards that's more important, but I think we also need to talk about how the website is one of the most unusable web apps I've ever used. They have all year to get it right and it just gets worse every time.

I wonder why their attempt to take on Steam didn't work.

By all accounts this game rules, but 90% of these reviewers could be made up and I wouldn't know the difference

Really sounds like Rian Johnson just got pissed off about Natasha Lyonne's AI slop ventures and wanted her fired.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Sorry, but she's saying this while standing inside the club he owns and she paid him a cover fee to get in. Great burn, you really showed him.

Folks don't seem to understand that Tidal has changed hands a number of times but is currently owned by Square/Jack Dorsey.

Does anyone else think it's annoying that 30 years ago they put little rumble motors in a controller and now we're stuck with vibration as a permanent feature in video games.
