TIL there's a small cottage industry of 💸 paid tools 💸 to export your Arc sidebar as a html file so you can upload to a different browser as bookmarks

tbh nobody should pay to do this! you can get a long way with putting all of your Pinned Tabs and Favs into a Pinned Folder > right clicking > click "Copy All Links" > pasting those links into text editor and saving as .html > uploading to your new browser of choice

I'm just out here revealing to my new coworkers my elder millennial age one `😆`, `lol` and `use-of-capital-letters-and-punctuation` at a time...lol!

Not to give scammers ideas, but with the amount of third party delivery companies out there I’m surprised I’m not hit with more scam delivery notification emails 😅

One of my new goals in life is to help boost internet literacy for the people in my life! Like I shouldn't have to tell my loved ones so frequently not to enter their payment info and address on x sketch website with reverse SEO engineered products with AI generated product images. Stay safe kids!

I’m assuming the French and English fans still in Miami for the third place match are simply there for the beach and a chance to jeer their national teams in person. This will be a hate watch like no other!

Me buying a case of beer wearing my helmet and bike gloves: “Just this.” Liquor store clerk: “You gonna be okay on your bike?” Me: “It’s a cargo bike 😎🆒💥🤘⚡️😤😤”

Also, having worked on Arc and Dia, using ⌘ ⇧ C to copy the current url in my browser has been ingrained into my fingers. I used @raycast.com to map that shortcut to a custom script that copies the current url from any browser I'm using. Legendary!

You know you’ve ascended to “old guy at the show” status when the act is playing creepy fart noises over the PA and the dude in front of you is texting his mom (green bubbles for momma too)

Saving grace is that the fart noises have been replaced by a sub par DJ and I get to do that old guy thing where I grimace disapprovingly at his transitions at the back of the venue

Bruv is “beverage brand activation” levels bad! Not a good transition yet. I feel like I should be drinking some canned cocktail in an instagram reel or something. Yikes!

Perhaps I’ve been off feed based social media for too long, but Bluesky seems to have a particular kind of spam that I can only describe as “politically left text based thirst traps”
