I keep seeing posts about how wonderful the Democratic Party is, how their polices are so good, their messaging is fine.
This does not accord with the latest NYTImes/Siena poll results, where 44% of DEMOCRATS are dissatisfied with the party. Overall voters, 70% are dissatisfied.
COMPARE TO GOP numbers: while #POTUS is not held in esteem by most, only 15% of GOP disapprove, and only 23% of…

Safari will now move your tabs into groups that hide the tabs, ensuring you'll never find those tabs again.

What the fuck is #firefox on Windows doing? A popup notifies me there's a new version available, download or skip, I click skip so I can get on with my shit, and I'm told I have to restart firefox to be able to open new tabs. NO, FUCKING NO. I TOLD YOU NO.
After a quiet month of April, here is *finally* a short blog for May ;) Let's add tabs to your Hugo posts!

Apple announces new Apple Intelligence features for its apps, including a Notify Me feature in Safari and a Call Context feature in the Phone app (John Quintet/iPhone in Canada)

Good morning from SteamOS :pingunootnoot: Doing some testing from the live installer. Installed Librewolf and then copied over my profile folder from my boot disk so now I have all my tabs and stuff ready to go. Installing the "usual suspects" looking for any issues, haven't hit any yet. Did have to scale down the display from like 160% or whatever the default is. This 48 inch monitor has plenty of space, don't need to be that zoomed in lol. Haven't gotten too far yet …
Close. Your damn. Tabs. #wwdc
I’m kinda digging Firefox’s new tab notes feature. As their announcement says, it’s a handy way to remind me why I have lots of tabs still open. 😅

Yes there are some outstanding issues with tab placement in @…
The true meaning of "aspirational" is not income or status, it is the number of articles in open browser tabs that I aspire to read.

Context switching galore, your hypercurious mind is drawn to even the smallest details, your attention is all over the place, with too many mental tabs open.
Everything, everywhere, and all at once.
What's your go-to method for recalibrating yourself and getting out of this loop?

I'd really like to meet the UX designer, in a dark alley with no witnesses of cameras, at Apple who thinks opening new browser tabs somewhere in the middle of the tab list and zero configuration options is the best approach.
I hate the modern computing world.
I have a Fitbit watch. I never would have bought it for myself until my SiL gave me one as a hand-me-down and I got hooked on metrics. I’m not a “works out” person. But keeping tabs on my sleep and activity are useful.
The Fitbit app has always sucked, but in unavoidable ways. Today Google (owners of Fitbit) forced a new “Google Health” app on me. It objectively and absolutely sucks. They’ve reserved half the main screen for a LLM “coach.”
Someday, we will have a linux desktop where you change a font size in one spot and every program running has its font change to the proper size. Your terminal window (w/ native desktop toolkit), your IM program (different toolkit), browser #1 with your many open tabs (all of them currently displaying websites setting their own font types and sizes), browser #2 (a glorified runtime environment for "universal" apps), your email client (running an older version of your native desktop …
#today will be mainly spent avoiding the heat again (34C forecast), with not much 'work' planned. I will attempt to keep on top of the #NewScientist article flood, if it arrives (only 5 unread tabs at the moment).
I recently asked @… to PLEASE close some tabs every now and then before her computer explodes.
Well now when she needs an URL that she had open before, she'll just ask me. She'll also inform me that she had that tab open at some time, but was asked to close it. Just sayin'.
I know there are a few complaints about tabs opened via Ctrl Click from a tab in a stack, jumping out of the stack in Vivaldi 8.0. We have a fix being tested.
If you want a stable stream build with the fix to try it early, there are links to 8.0.4033.34 at the end of this snapshot blog post (after the snapshot links 8.0.4033.32)
For how good Go docs are, this time I have a very difficult time finding all the details about how to create, version, and manage a new Go module.
I started with a link and now I have 8 opened tabs. I still have no clear picture of the process.

Cross-Tabs: June 2026 Times/Siena Poll of the Likely Electorate in Texas (New York Times)

My elderly Mom uses #Thunderbird as her client for gmail. Yay for #SilverFOSS !
This is the second time it's become unusable.
The culprit? the same as the last time...she has an ungodly amount of emails open in tabs and it just crashes. Troubleshoot mode seems to get by that to let me 'Close Other Tabs' on a tab.
Boggles my mind it doesn't have some way to 'open clean' without loading the open emails...or at least a setting.
