@elonmusk @SpaceX The richest man in the world vs the most powerful man in the world...

No wait: it's just two of the biggest assholes in the world at each other's throats.

Go grab the popcorn 🍿🍿🍿
(Hopefully they both lose).

Hoping this makes it Caleb (sorry for spamming, but don't see any official way to post such feedback/wishes).

Loving using Flux UI Pro -- it's quickly moving me from rather a Laravel/Livewire hack into... well a bit less of one.

I'm not sure where else to post this, so will try here:

I've got a Flux Context menu -- works really well, but the context menu runs off the side of the window

[Chris Banford @zermattchris]

@naomiseibt So... The first time in "History" -- seems rather short-sighted to me (1930s anyone??)

[Chris Banford @zermattchris]

@calebporzio The land of the "Free". (don't get sick, don't get caught with an open beer on the street).

[Chris Banford @zermattchris]

@JDVance BTW: Nice eye liner -- where do you find that??

[Chris Banford @zermattchris]

@calebporzio Just to let you know -- I bought Flux Pro when you released it... I'm just starting to move some of my existing app to using Flux 2.0...

It's incredible! So much complexity is vanishing from my little project. Love it (well worth buying the Pro)♥️

[Chris Banford @zermattchris]

@calebporzio (the messy code bit totally my fault -- first Laravel project and have tried lots of different things, leaving a bit of a tangle). Just upgraded to Flux UI 2.0 -- all now works a charme! Can't wait to start refactoring chunks of my project with this. Kudos ♥️

[Chris Banford @zermattchris]

@calebporzio I purchased the Flux license when it came out -- being a hobby Laravel dev (just making stuff for my own little company), I have always missed a good set of UI components... Loved Livewire, so thought I'd give it a whirl.

Couldn't get the v1.0 to work properly in my messy code.

@calebporzio I need to be able to play with the CSS of each day cell. Changing background colour, border, drop shadow, adding icons with : before : after...

@DarrellEpp Stunning view of the west face (my favorite). He's had to do a proper climb to get this vantage point.

@elonmusk @DavidSacks So why not spend your Twitterish Tweets telling the Russians to get out and stop this madness?

[Chris Banford @zermattchris]

@elonmusk You know why, Elon - we all do. $$$

[Chris Banford @zermattchris]

@RiegerReport Deal, you gross human!

[Chris Banford @zermattchris]

@elonmusk It makes no difference who is Speaker - all they will end up doing is investigating Hunter's Laptop (who could guess that a laptop might break a law?).

Remember the days when actual *crimes* were investigated and not inanimate objects? 🤷🏻🤦

@lexfridman Maybe talk about how teachers will need to adapt - they will soon have to assume that every student can just AI a story for their homework assignment (have had fun discussing with my retired school teacher mum 🙂)
