@kurtruslfanclub @LeenaVanD I reinstalled Twitter/X to wish you both congratulations 👏 on pushing through and getting to done on @deadstaticdrive.

Still fondly remember chatting with Mike & playing a build many years ago at PAX Aus in Melbourne.

Really hope it sells well.

@XboxP3 when am I gonna be able to Play my Game Pass games (without Xcloud) on my SteamDeck? Isn’t every screen supposed to be an Xbox?

I can play many EGS games there via a 3rd Party Installer (Heroic).

Surely MS can publish a Linux Flatpack version of the Game Pass app?

@profgalloway iOS app dev here. Apple already gets a user’s age when creating an Apple ID. They use that to age gate the apps you download from the App Store. All apps a dev publishes through the AppStore are age rated.

@shockdesign The inevitable march of time.

I don’t actually think you ever have it all figure out. I feel like I have less figured out every day.

@AdrianHofman 🤦‍♂️ have I told you how much I dislike “Uncle Bob”? I’ll spare you the details.

[Oliver Jones @orj]

@AdrianHofman @mjovanovictech I see what you did there.

@Demruth If mindfulness has taught me anything it is that the mind and body are a single system.

[Oliver Jones @orj]

@Demruth Definitely. I was walking home from breakfast this morning and noticed I was standing tall, looking up and quite happy. My posture was definitely correlated with my happiness. Not sure it was mood first then posture or if my posture was elevating my mood.

@sanguish It’s the other way around Scott. The margin loans are likely on Tesla stock. At what price does Tesla have to fall to for his loans to be margin called.

Twitter has no “valuation” (other than what Elon paid for it) it’s gone private.

@AndyyHope @ittybittyapps? What are we? Chopped liver?

@bazscott I guess you’ve not read much sci-fi Baz.

A good, autonomous humanoid robot is going to be incredibly useful for all sorts of things.

Maybe years away from being a product but still a worthy goal.
