I hardly ever log in here and forget that quite a few people did move over from Twitter. I should log in more

@josephmansfield.uk Hey! Haven't spoken to you in years but I just realised that Thinky Games is your project and wanted to let you know that I think it's brilliant! I try to play through deduction games every year for a charity livestream and spent a few days reading reviews there to pick a game.

3.5 hours into the stream with Aaron, and after some ridiculously generous donations we are close to reaching our £3.7k target, which will mean we have raised over £50,000 for the charity since 2019! Currently playing Duck Detective.

This joke led to me reading a bunch of wiki pages about the IDW plot lines, and I am now totally mind blown about how little I apparently know about the transformers (my childhood passion) now. I didn’t realise it was a “reboot” and now I need to learn more.

I love "Roomba discovers that their entire kingdom is but a fraction of the world" stories but I hope Roomba doesn't resent us too much when the robopocalypse comes

A screenshot of a Reddit post from r/mildlyinfuriating that says the following:

Roomba accidentally saw outside and now I can't delete "room 1" and "room 4"
The roomba automatically updates the map everytime it cleans. Normally I leave the door to the backyard closed. But today I forgot. As it was cleaning near the gate (vertical red line at the edge of room 10 & 11) it saw the backyard. The app has no way to delete a room. Very mildly infuriating indeed

The accompanying image is a floorplan of a house, with a bunch of rooms labelled as room 3, room 4, and so on. On the left-hand side of the floor plan are two new, irregularly-shaped rooms called Room 1 and Room 4, which are separated from the house by a red dotted line that represents the gate.

It is easy to imagine that these new rooms are Roomba's interpretations of The Outside as new places to explore and clean, as they follow Roomba's lines of sight in big diagonal stripes.

The Scottish have won the AI Wars.

A screenshot of Google's AI Overview answer to the question "is haggis an animal". It says "Yes, the haggis is a small, furry mammal native to Scotland" and goes on to give the typical "asymmetrical legs" details.

Also reading the hobbit with a five year old at the moment, and I do find myself paraphrasing more than I expected. It’s wonderful though.

My favourite episode is the one where Poirot gets a shoulder-mounted cannon.

A promotional still of David Suchet as Agatha Christie's Poirot, with (I think) an anti-aircraft gun peeking over his shoulder.

I can assure you that while this thread seems unbelievable to you, it is something that every senior engineer has sat thru at least twice. Once when they were the incredulous junior who "doesn't understand why it needs to be so complex", and once as a senior eng explaining, why in fact, it does.

I was driving behind a car which had a sticker on the back with the Paul Walker “if one day the speed kills me” quote. I didn’t recognise it so invoked Siri and asked about it. Siri’s reply? “Calling emergency services in 3..2..” talk about speed - I don’t think I’ve ever hit a cancel button so fast

“Oh, did a sportsball happen?” I whisper smugly from my vantage point on a distant cliff, the sounds of celebration in the village far below just barely audible over the lonely wind whipping my tattered cloak

Amazing. It seems like that storage is limited so it can be synced. Perhaps using the local storage is an option for users who have larger requirements (e.g followed too many accounts..)

aahrun @aahrun.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

Thanks. It seemed more like a data storage issue, as I can click delete on a few entries and “resume” will then pick up a similar number of new accounts before the same error appears. Google suggests similar issues for other chrome plugins related to developer.chrome.com/docs/extensi...

Hello! I used Sky Follower Bridge and it worked really well, enough so that it’s convinced me to give blue sky a try! The avatar comparison feature was unexpected and worked pretty well. One issue is that I can’t search beyond 1300 account matches due to a quota_bytes error. Is there a workaround?

Lovely to read through this. I've been doing bedtime RPGs with the 5yo, and writing the "after action reports" once she's asleep. It reads like an absolute fever dream :D

aahrun @aahrun.bsky.social · 08/02/2025

Glad you stuck with it. I can imagine it being a strange read now. I showed someone Bladerunner for the first time a while ago and they were a bit disappointed - I think they'd seen it's influence and inspiration in too much other media, it didn't feel as special to them. Hard to go back.

One of the bsky people that the tool marked as a potential follow from the other place wasn't the right person, but sounded great, so they got a follow too!
