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.

Oops… Just found out that Silicon Valley’s trendy social media app Airchat is already toast. Its official website has shut down. That was fast!
While Elie Steinbock believed that Airchat would change social media forever, Elaine Moore was right on the money — Airchat’s viral success will not last.

Is it just me or has Apple Music been really glitchy recently? 🤔

This playlist is just lit!

Finally replaced every JSON file with a table in an SQL database tailored to my needs. Whipped up some APIs to connect the front end with the database. Created several iOS Shortcuts to push data to the server. Everything seems to be working perfectly after extensive testing. Now I’m feeling secure.

A buddy came across a futuristic telephone booth in Shanghai, China. All he had to do was scan a QR code with his iPhone camera and dial a number on a massive touchscreen. Wow.

Since I turned off “optimized battery charging” on my iPhone, the battery’s maximum capacity has been dropping way more slowly – only 4% over the past year.

Asking for a friend… Tons of items on Amazon are eligible for return within 90 days of receipt. How about the president of the United States?

If you can’t stand being alone, you’re as lonely as a desperate stray. If you thrive in solitude, you’re as free as a sovereign eagle.

I had no idea Timbaland teamed up with Malte Marten on a meditation music project last year. This is incredibly soothing. They created a unique and immersive listening experience.

It’s such a shame that tracks purchased from the iTunes Store today are still in AAC format at 256 kbps. Apple Lossless (ALAC) and Dolby Atmos (spatial audio) are not available for purchase. They’re only for streaming or offline downloads within an Apple Music subscription.

When did Instagram start to include a downvote button ( ↓ ) in every comment? Honestly I’m not a fan of it.

Back in 1980, KFC had around 6,000 locations across 48 countries, pulling in $2 billion a year ($2 billion in 1980 is roughly $7.66 billion in today’s dollars).
Fast forward to 2023, and the brand had grown to nearly 30,000 outlets in 145 countries, with annual sales reaching $2.83 billion.

JavaScript short date-time format:
- United States: Tue, 02/18/2025, 1:58 AM EST
- Canada: Tue, 2025-02-18, 1:58 a.m. EST
Without a doubt, the Canadian short date looks cleaner and more visually appealing, and the “a.m.” (or “p.m.”) style has a classic touch. However, it’s four characters long. Also, in the long date-time format, the word “at” appears between the date and time, whereas in the short version, it’s simply replaced by a comma. I dislike seeing more than one comma in a timestamp, so on this site, what you actually see is a hybrid version: Tue, 2025-02-18 @ 1:58 AM EST.

Hey Wikipedia, looks like we need some references here. At least my mom doesn’t call her that — she doesn’t even know her.
