I love this! When taking selfies, pay attention to where your shadow is falling, and aim for the edge to just barely cover the camera lens… from the sun OR the strongest light in the room.
I also do this when an amateur is photographing *me* and help them get a great shot! 😘
@TRDenTechs@n94Shinssue We had a paper at Xbox on how you could setup three to avoid interference. The biggest problem at the time was bandwidth. 🫠
I actually had a capture rig for three 360s and one for three One, but hit blue screen issues with the old open source drivers. Super cool work!!
@ArcTheSnep Truth! When I got back into the fandom I was pushing photographers to start charging in the first place. I’m so proud of photographers like @DozingUnicorn and @dire_walf for charging what they’re worth (and honestly they are worth more). When I started hiring, I always pay. 🙏👌
@Durrvish_@clowns120 Yooo, I worked on Halo for 10 years at 343 until the layoffs. Was a bit concerned for you using the asset… huuuge props for tracking it down legally. Love your work!!
@ADHDForReal I tell my friends it’s like having run a marathon with a 50lb rucksack and not realizing you’re the only runner with one.
Huge props for anyone in that situation that keeps at it! 🫂
@sensorystories_ Absolutely! I’m a principal data solutions architect, and I can see entity graphs and service bottlenecks at a glance… and it can me 40 minutes to walk a room of experts through the understandings. (Not hyperbole, this scenario was common for me at my 23yrs at a FAANG).
@ULTRAMAGlC Me at Halo: I’d architected the telemetry tech used by every game within microsoft, from Forza to Minecraft, Gears of War to Solitaire to Fable. Spoke at GDC about it
After I transitioned, was mansplained how it worked by a jr dev who wouldn’t believe I knew what I was doing. 🙄
@justbeingmendy@sensorystories_ This is basically what masking is! We can learn the tricks to blend in, but are constantly running simulations and guessing at the right responses, pretending to have interest, figuring out when to smile (but not TOO much!)… but it can be exhausting to maintain.
AwwwWOOF! ❤️🖤🥰
Gonna miss hanging out with fun friends like @SexiestScarlett when I go home next week! 💔❤️🩹😘
So happy about all the amazing people down here!🖤🖤🖤

@ADHDForReal I have a messy house because I have to leave my tasks out and visible. Toothbrush in a prominent place. Bills out and ready to be paid when ai have the energy to be on the phone. Pictures by the wall ready to hang, etc etc etc
@SelinarSnowcat Trump's words are... many. I look at what Trump *did* in his previous term. If you think he has eased these years for women and transgendered kids... can we at least agree you haven't walked in our shoes? 😅
I'm happy to chat about my experiences and concerns, but not on X. 🫂
