Installed VLC on my phone because I finally got fed up with what Google has been doing to the Android music player that's become YouTube Music, and holy shit what a revelation it was to have a tool that does what I want it to do, and isn't just a big funnel to get me to pay more money.

OMG, Google, I fucking hate you. (Ctrl-G quits the current operation in Emacs, to have that suddenly be toggling Gemini is about the most obnoxious thing that could possibly occur.)

Fired up Firefox to retrieve an old password, and it's claiming that a one-off password used only for Facebook was part of a breach on September 30, 2023? I've changed it, but I'd expect that'd have gotten more press than it apparently did, can't find anything on such an incident...

Oh, fucking charming, Homebrew has somehow destroyed my PGVector install, so my Postgres database is now unusable. Have I mentioned in the last 15 minutes how much I hate this miserable excuse for a platform?

Thanks, Google AI, that's helpful.
