Not sure who else needs this, but since #Anthropic changes the download URL for each #Claude update, and that URL is no longer public once a new version is out (but it still works for downloading that version), I added a cron job on my NAS to keep a record of all Claude .pkg download URLs, and it checks for a new version every 30min (they be releasing hella updates). You can find it on #GitHub here : http://github.com/zed1291/ClaudeVersions

My Canyon Grizl 7 was stolen Sept. 2025. Starting Feb. 2025, pain from a herniated disc started flaring up/down, since Oct. 2025 it’s been mostly up. This week I had surgery, and while I have pain it is not from a herniated disc but just the regular post-surgery recovery. So, since my Canyon being stolen I’ve only ridden my commuter bike (Strava says 400km this year). I’m going to re-buy a Canyon. Should I buy it now or wait till I’m actually ready to start riding again ? #bike #biketooter

For those of you that moved from somewhere else to #Europe, how long did it take for the European power outlet to appear in your dream ? For me, it was last night. Just a little over 1.5yrs. It was also the first time I’ve dreamt in French (I assume the two things were connected). The dream : (next toot)

It’s incredibly annoying when extremists get mad at someone or some organization when they do the right thing because they didn’t do it earlier. There is a time and place for pushback, but if you want even more people to start making the morally right decision, depraving those, who just now changed, of the positive feedback loop right after they make one good decision is NOT the way to convince them or others to follow suit to continue or to start making decisions that agree with you.

Most of the time when walking around a city, I have headphones in and am listening to music. But the distinct lack of car sounds in #amsterdam makes it pleasant to walk around without headphones and it’s really nice.

Chantant dans une chorale, j’adore ça. Tous les jeudis soirs, après avoir une répétition je suis toujours hyper heureux. Ma vie n’est pas parfait, mais il y a pleins de trucs comme ça qui me disent toujours « zed, ta vie est bonne et tu est exactement ou tu dois être. »

@overcastfm not sure how to handle this, but I used the transcript to skip a dynamically inserted ad and now the highlighted text doesn’t match what is being said. The text at the bottom of this screenshot is what’s being spoken, but the app thinks the text at the top of the screenshot is what’s being spoken.

Hey @overcastfm , I absolutely love the new transcription feature. It unlocks French podcasts in more categories (I’m an American living in France, currently B2 in French). Until now I’ve mainly listened to French news podcasts, but the ability to see the words at the same time (when I need them) lets me try to listen to pop culture ones too.

On most metrics, the EU has the US beat when it comes to train travel EXCEPT when it comes to comfort. The worst seats on Amtrak are better than the best seats on any train I’ve taken in the EU (Eurostar, Thalys, and various SNCF trains). This post brought to you by a Eurostar seat that’s uncomfortable AF #trains #europe #usa

Être pouvoir de parler une deuxième langue, ça c’est comme un superpower. Évidemment mon français n’est pas parfait. Mais je viens de rencontrer quelqu’un français à Amsterdam, et c’était évident qu’il aimait être capable de me parler en français (il est encore en train d’apprendre le néerlandais, et son anglais n’est pas le meilleur).

Des gens pensent trop souvent que leurs préférences sont les règles pour comment le monde entier doit être. Non. C’est ok d’avoir un avis, mais c’est pas toujours la seule option, c’est que ton préférence.

It’s interesting to see my development (as long with the change in the phones #Apple has released) over the years. I used to be an update every year on day 1 kind of person, obsessed with getting whatever was new (even when it was hard for me to afford a new phone). The last phone I bought directly from Apple was an #iPhone 12 Mini in 2021 (after years of using the SE 1). After breaking it, I started using an iPhone SE 3 (old work phone), and 2 months ago bought a secondhand iPhone 13 Mini.

Mdr, je trouve que c’est si drôle que #Bouygues sachent que leur checkout est trop difficile du coup ils ont créé une vidéo surtout pour ça, néanmoins ça fonctionne pas (je me fait jeter dans un loop quand j’essaie de le faire). https://youtu.be/z1EMcuFnvnk?si=L81TzdfTjnbfxLkG

Je viens de réaliser que « di » dans les noms des jours avait probablement le sens de « jour. » Pareil comme en anglais, mais c’est plus évident là. Lun-di Mar-di Mercre-di Jeu-di Vendre-di Same-di Di-manche C’est toujours là dans les noms.

“ICE has higher detention standards than most U.S. prisons that hold actual U.S. citizens” This is not the defense they think it is. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/25/us/french-ross-mahe-ice-detention.html?unlocked_article_code=1.dlA.21Iv.HdabXF9WzxKW&amp;smid=nytcore-ios-share

If they had picked me instead of John Ternus, there would be three iPhone sizes: regular, mini, and max. And the iPhone 12/13 mini would be the size of the regular iPhone, with an even smaller one as the mini. Gimme a 4.5” diagonal edge-to-edge display and I’d be living life. #iPhone #iPhonemini #Apple

After another assassination attempt on Trump, you’ll hear alot of people say that “violence is never the answer.” Unless you’re a Quaker (or some other actually pacifist religious group), anyone saying that is being dishonest to themselves. And if you do actually think violence can be acceptable, you need to actually figure out where the line is. Going based of vibes is not enough. Attached is a screenshot of where I currently am with the question “when is violence morally acceptable?”

C’est stupide que Slack donne des notifications même pour les personnes qui tu as bloqué. Il y a des personnes dans le MacAdmins Slack (le workspace dans mon screenshot) qui je trouve hyper innervant. Si c’était le workspace pour mon travail je pourrais juste parler avec le RH, mais quand c’est un workspace étant utilisé comme réseau social, il faut vraiment avoir un vrai bouton pour bloquer. #slack

@siracusa for all the Mac Studios up till now you could do SSD upgrades yourself. You just have to get blank nands, and they’re on a custom board that a French company reverse engineered. Edit: they actually seem to be out of stock for everything https://shop.polysoft.fr/fr/10-mac-studio-upgrades?q=stockage-8To-16To
