@Rock955CHI we need that chaos energy in the morning that only @PalmerRadio can give us! 🤘🏻

@WindowsCentral I miss my Nokia Lumia… fantastic camera, 2-stage physical shutter button… and a phone that (so long as the app was available) just freaking worked. Also the phone that made me interested in mobile app development.

May need this for all the new additions to the homelab...

Just wrote up a new article for https://t.co/kV0uhhHC2z on thermals for the Framework Laptop. Check it out: https://t.co/Qk0Ebljqom Cheers!

@Windows Swapped from the built-in Glow theme (beautiful and compliments to whoever designed it at Microsoft) on my new laptop to my logo for https://t.co/kV0uhhZcU7 I don't typically run with my workplace logo for anything... but on this beautiful new screen it looks too good.

@FrameworkPuter A great idea! I can't believe I didn't think about popping in one of the storage modules and using it as a swappable OS drive. Guess I need to buy one... then I'll be playing with Mint.

[Brandon Vader @VaderBrandon]

@Microsoft Likely that was intentional even if not the best choice.

But @Microsoft could we talk for a second about multiple emails accounts in Outlook and there not being some sort of warning that you might be sending an email from a personal address to a company contact? Feature idea 😜

Pardon the cables. Had to dismantle my desktop for the GPU and NVMe drive, then build and set up my laptop... all an hour before recording our latest episode of @ThisTwil. Should have some related content on the website in the next few days. Follow @TTP_NET to stay up-to-date.

*squeee* it's here! Framework laptop, DIY editon. Going to try using it as my only computer, even replacing my gaming desktop thanks to an eGPU enclosure. So far loving it @FrameworkPuter! Thanks for making a repairable, upgradeable work of art!

[Brandon Vader @VaderBrandon]

@LinusTech Both... both is good. Though I prefer to have my gaming monitor directly in front with a secondary to the left. The one top is a new addition and only ever has videos on it. Normally @Level1Techs, @LinusTech or @TWiT. If you're looking for another good one check out @ThisTwil

Thank you American Hi-Fi for spending 809 minutes with me this year on @Spotify. You are my #1. #SpotifyWrapped https://t.co/o5IyRNTqa7

[Brandon Vader @VaderBrandon]

@windowscentral Unfortunate, but not unexpected... I was looking forward to seeing what apps I could actually use with it and what kind of new interesting workflows happen... but I suppose I can wait. *sigh*

[Windows Central @WindowsCentral]

If Android app support was the feature you were most looking forward to in Windows 11, bad news. https://t.co/Yf5HNjAu1C

@Daniel_Rubino @Fdruid It'd be nice to see everywhere... but the top 3 I'd ask for are

Oneplus
Pixel
Motorola (especially on the new Razer)

[Brandon Vader @VaderBrandon]

@PriscilliaBL I remember the change, remember the confusion... and still wish it was Sci-Fi...

@intermediacy Down Periscope

I highly recommend it. It's my go to feel good movie since I found it a few years ago.

[Brandon Vader @VaderBrandon]

@intermediacy Ooof... thanks... I needed to feel older today. Hahahaha
