my new favorite thing about Teams is when a new message desktop notification will pops up, but then the actual text of the message does not appear in the relevant chat or channel for another 15-20s

The perfect user interface doesn't exi-

I've had this idea for a bit, but more like a reverse roguelike, where you start with a dizzying array of abilities and have to pick which ones you'll lose as you progress

I would like to thank the Conclave for making their decision to make the home of Frosty Faustings and ComboBreaker a holy place

FOLKS WE DID IT ✅ I'm typing this on @aviva.gay's deer.social ✅ which posted to @alnkq.bsky.social's AppViewLite ✅ which is listening to the @blacksky.app atproto.africa relay

Not what you want to hear from a judge: "Philip Schiller had advocated that Apple comply with the Injunction, but Tim Cook ignored Schiller and instead allowed Chief Financial Officer Luca Maestri and his finance team to convince him otherwise. Cook chose poorly."

spent the afternoon partitioning one of our data streaming services, early testing shows an order of magnitude more throughput good way to end the week

I know just the guy for the job

multiverses are good for artists (can tell the stories they want) and good for business (established IP, low risk) but really terrible at creating engaging stories, imo. Why should I invest/care about the current plights of the current spider man when there's going to be another one in 5-8 years?

pleased to hear the penguins have won the trade bargains

Okay lets game this out: You are a Nintendo employee given unlimited funds and authority to move Switch 2 production to the US. No new factories, that's going to take way too long, you need to work with existing American Contract Manufacturing capacity. How fast can you do it? 1/x

Microsoft is the real offender here, but anyone who writes even a news post about the copilot "AI" Quake 'tech demo' without describing how it actually functions (or fails to) it is is doing unpaid PR work.

just pasted some json into a .bicepparams file and it auto-converted it to yaml. I didn't know that was a thing! thanks @biceplang.bsky.social!

accidentally called a fax line and was transported back to 1997

videos about cheating are easily some of the most popular and lucrative speedrunning content online... and yet the cheater never sees a cent in return for providing such value to the community. how is this fair

cross origin resource sharing, my ancient enemy, has struck again it wouldn't be so bad if browsers reported them as CORS errors instead of whatever the downstream issue is "the file contains script errors" bro the file is empty because of the failed preflight check! tell me about that!!!

as a gamer ive eliminated thousands of moo deng like creatures for their various parts . Ive completed countless quests using their pain

Much of esports is built on fundamentally unsustainable sources. The low-knowledge investors, wealthy enthusiasts, crypto scams, money laundering, sports washing, etc that contribute so much of this industry's funding aren't long-term paths to sustainability, they're frantic jumps between life rafts

The absolute irony of OneDrive not being Microsoft's only drive

installed a whole ass utility sink by myself! I feel handy and cool

I have mixed feelings about Meta spending bajillions of dollars on metaverse BS. On the one hand it's obviously terrible and bonkers.

checking in on decentralized assets intended to be independent from governments and big banks

bro time to replay the F.E.A.R. series I suppose

I'm on this guy's side, maybe not to the extent he presents, but it is weird. My best guess is the publisher could use the help and the dev is a nice guy and doesn't mind

Just spent three hours wondering why our build machine wouldn't import/register a certificate. It was because the file extension was .pem instead of .crt! That's a rough one to swallow tbh. Exact same file content! Skill issue'd I guess.
