MacGyver Challenge: S.O.S.!

quote [ Using whatever you can find from the boat and the list of items below, how can you come up with a way to signal for help before you and your mates become food for the fishes? ]

Spark plug radio? Gasoline-powered hot air balloon? I assume the engine itself is a write-off.

Karawan by bippinbits

quote [ Guide your Caravan in a crumbling world. ]

Very compelling little puzzle game. Like a piece of driftwood, with all the usual annoyances sanded off.

Apple Daily: Hong Kong pro-democracy paper announces closure

quote [ The tabloid's offices were raided last week over allegations that several reports had breached a controversial national security law.

Police detained the chief editor and five other executives, and company-linked assets were frozen. ]

This looks like the end of independent news in HK. Perhaps I've bought into western paternalism, or anti-China fervor, or I'm a sucker for yellow umbrellas, but it makes me sad.

New York congressman puts forward federal right-to-repair bill

quote [ The proposed federal-level legislation, though, would compel original equipment manufacturers to provide consumers and independent businesses access to the tools, schematics, and parts required to fix broken devices. ]

I love fix stuff! Repair schematics make me ecstatic.

TurboTax Sucks Ass

quote [ File for free by clicking the links below. ]

TurboTax charges for a service that the IRS could provide for free. They lobbied successfully against this, but are required to provide a free portal, which they have of course hidden away in the ass-end of the internet (hint: it's not TurboTax Free Version). The Hasan Minhaj show collected links to all the free portals on this site.

Name all the colors @ colornames.org

quote [ A collaborative effort to name every color in the RGB/web space. ]
