  • So all the other models have given way to GPT-5? I haven’t even tried o3.

  • I was trying to use Apple Music Sing on my Apple TV, only to find my model doesn’t actually support it. It requires a third-generation Apple TV 4K, while mine is second generation. 🤷🏻‍♂️

  • I’ve been a proud Endel Premium user since the fall of 2020. As of now, I have spent 1709 days with the app and averaged about 4 hours of use every night.

    I honestly can’t sleep properly without my CPAP or Endel’s Sleep soundscape. This wonderful app has been part of my sleep routine for a few weeks shy of five years.

  • It looked like the links and icons on my site were shifting upward in dark mode on hover, but nothing changed in the CSS. Light mode had no issues. After some digging, I realized it was an optical illusion caused by the colour contrast. Changing the hover colour fixed it.

  • Which will die first, Vega, Altair, or the Sun?

    Among the three stars — Vega, Altair, and the Sun — Vega will die first, followed by Altair, and then our Sun, which will be the last to reach the end of its life. The primary reason for this sequence lies in their masses and lifespans, which are inversely related: the more massive a star, the … read more

  • It would have made sense for Kesha to split this song into two seamless tracks, the first functioning as an intro to the entire album.

  • I’ve switched back to the 24-hour notation on my main site, blog, and every other site I control. I’ve always been a fan of the 24-hour system, and the Canadian government encourages its use too. So… I figure doing a bit of mental math (like remembering that 00 is 12 a.m., 12 is 12 p.m., and subtracting 12 if the hour’s over 12) isn’t that hard, eh?

  • I’ve moved my Contacts and Calendar from iCloud to Google. I still keep iCloud Mail for non-personal emails. iCloud Reminders has never really grown on me; I only use it once in a while. iCloud Notes is the only one I still find unbeatable.

  • Finally revamped my website. It was a bit of work, but I’m happy to have moved everything back to my main domain but my blog.

  • This is so far my favourite album of 2025:

  • It’s a shame that an anniversary edition isn’t fully in Spatial Audio.

  • Remnant

    The earthquake struck when I was six. I survived. Most of my classmates didn’t. Now I’m in college, in another city. Whenever I return home, I pass their parents on the street. They stop me, their eyes scanning me — as if searching for what might have been. Then, with a gentle, aching smile, they … read more

  • Trapped in the claws of the bear
    And I wonder
    Will all things be empty again?

    Bare hands with my winter fears
    Cold till it burns
    You’ll be blowing away the frostbites
    When we’ll return

  • Ever wonder why ChatGPT 4o sometimes produces only an image without any follow-up text? This is the prompt behind the scenes.

  • Snacks

    Granny hands me a bag of snacks, edges soft, the crunch long gone. I look at Mom and ask, “Did they expire?” She smiles, half-lost in thought, “No, love — we just came home too late.” read more

  • I’m not impressed by how PDF Expert provides their lifetime subscription. For a one-time payment of CA$199.99 (or US$97.99 on StackSocial), customers have no access to their future big updates and new features, including the AI assistant. Also, it’s macOS only; the mobile apps are not included.
