TIL: `tar xf archive.tar.gz` auto-recognizes gzipped tar (without the `z` option), but `tar cf archive.tar.gz ...` does *not* produce a gzipped tar. -_-

TIL: If you let a domain name expire, hackers can purchase it using a service like DropCatch, then restore your old content but with the forms replaced with phishing loggers! Ugh, maybe I'll just park my retired domains from now on... 😩

The mamba project has made me love conda again. No more waiting minutes at a time for the solver, only to have it ultimately fail. Here's my conda config: github.com/ctrueden/dotfiles… – Zsh + conda + mamba + esc/conda-zsh-completion + aliases. These can help you defeat the pain! πŸ‘¨β€πŸ”§

I will never forget August 2014 when we added analytics to #ImageJ to find out which features to focus onβ€”and the community revolted on privacy grounds. Six years later, if you own a Mac, the nightmare has arrived: Apple knows everything you do. My next machine will run Linux. πŸ˜₯
If you care about your privacy, and you're using macOS, you might have a serious reasons to worry. Your Computer Isn't Yours - sneak.berlin/20201112/your-c… My advice: Just move to Linux. It's about time.

I'm not big on exotic locales, but it's still rough seeing my Google Maps travel summaries splashing pharmacy and fast food as top highlights for the 10th month running. 😣

I wrote a @b33ts plugin to upload music to @iBroadcastMedia: discourse.beets.io/t/1526. With the shutdown of Google Play Music, I'm surprised iBroadcast doesn't have more buzzβ€”I'm impressed with it so far. And beets is a dream come true for CLI-obsessed OCD music collectors! 🎢

.@openspim I see you designed a new logo for the project! Should we update openspim.org and github.com/openspim also to use this logo? Do you have a higher resolution version I can source?
