@TheBlueRogue I never finished it but felt the same way. It felt kind of hollow to me, hard to get invested in the characters.

#TromboneChamp and @SindenLightgun made my arcade rhythm shooter dreams a reality.

Thanks @reckless for pushing back on @tfadell (a bit) regarding metaverse. He clearly cares about the environment. We can eliminate millions of commutes and business flights a year with this tech & distribute opportunity. Fidelity will improve. Looking forward to #Build.

Such a great thread from the former Reddit head. Those who haven't seen the inside of a social network have a hard time comprehending the scale and real world harm potential. "No holds barred" is just an incredibly naive position for content moderation.

@kickme444 That being said, I know a great LA board game group that I'm sure would be happy to have you.

@kickme444 But also: Don't sleep on remote social connection! Gaming in particular can be a great pretense for social connection. I play different games with people across the country ~3 days/week and it fulfills the much of the need.

@andysparks Jeff@ is handled by a dedicated triage team. IIRC believe Jeff also has a slightly different direct email.

For #EarthDay: Three things that are terrible for the planet and their just-as-good replacements.

1. Animal-based beef -> plant-based beef
2. Proof-of-work crypto -> Proof-of-stake crypto
3. Commuting to an office to take VC calls all day -> WFH permanently

Heartened that the crown saved $30 of tax payer money buying #PrincePhillip the Kindle with ads.

@andysparks @Sonos I’m actually quite surprised this isn’t mitigated at the OS level.

@TheBlueRogue Any good video recommendations? My MGS crew is thrilled by this news.

@TheBlueRogue ❗️I did not know that.
