It's even worse than it appears..
I am pleased to report that news.scripting.com works again.#
I work for the betterment of the network we all share. I'm not trying to get rich or famous, just fix the stuff that's broken. I hope you are doing that too. Keep on truckin.#
When Twitter shuts down client apps everyone says Twitter is bad. But Google deliberately breaks their browser and blames my blog, people don't seem to care, probably because it sounds like Google is being benevolent when they're actually engaging in a huge act of piracy. #
Twitter is getting better folks. You may not like "hard core" but we used to call that "management by shipping" at Living Videotext (my first company). What mattered was delivering features to users. Everything else, bullshit.#
Following up on my GMail problem, a suggestion that I delete all Google-related cookies turned out to be the cure. I once again have access to GMail from my main desktop computer. #
  • I have a Tesla Model Y.#
  • I will no doubt get a new EV in the next couple of years.#
  • As I bought a new PC every year or so when they were new. #
  • But I wouldn't miss driving a Tesla now. #
  • It's like what Harry said to Sally -- #
    • "When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible."#
  • That's how I feel about EVs. It's like driving an amusement park ride every time I go out. I deserve this.#

You know those obnoxious sites that pop up dialogs when they think you're about to leave, asking you to subscribe to their email newsletter? Well that won't do for Scripting News readers who are a discerning lot, very loyal, but that wouldn't last long if I did rude stuff like that. So here I am at the bottom of the page quietly encouraging you to sign up for the nightly email. It's got everything from the previous day on Scripting, plus the contents of the linkblog and who knows what else we'll get in there. People really love it. I wish I had done it sooner. And every email has an unsub link so if you want to get out, you can, easily -- no questions asked, and no follow-ups. Go ahead and do it, you won't be sorry! :-)
