It seems inevitable to me that we get ads, and I want them to survive. The paid tier however should remove the ads It’s also good to remember if they start pulling engagement levers you don’t like pulled to optimize rev you have multiple courses of action (by design): feeds, clients, and PDS

Cave's of Qud released yesterday after 15 years of development and I am completely enthralled by the visual work on display here. The info density, palette, and visual artifacts hitting on all cylinders in both the menu system and the environmental design of the gameplay. It's fucking good
Screenshot from Caves of Qud gameplay highlighting its use of a limited color palette to direct attention.Screenshot from Caves of Qud menu system (Quests) showing it's information density and text-heavy aesthetic.Caves of Qud character creation screen. It's very minimal in contrast to the other information dense screens in the menu system.The environmental design of Caves of Qud has beautiful moments of symmetry and again a powerful color palette.

pro tip, check your microwave shielding. It’s not unlikely it operates on the same 2.4gHz band as your WiFi and only needs to leak a small amount of radiation before messing with the network. Happened to us. My brother would nuke a burrito and I’d get kicked out of overwatch or get crazy ping

Just got my rental for the week. The Sony FX-30 is an astonishing build of a product. Feels great in the hand, build quality is top notch minus the plasticky dial in the rear. The style is on point and very utilitarian with the built in 1/4-20 threads I love this for $1500

I’m concerned this will hurt Google’s interest in continuing to heavily invest and push web standards. While chrome certainly has some ugly (hello manifest v3), all things considered it has been a Mostly Good™ trade for the web at large

God I love Remarkable. The product is so good and fun to use. But I returned it today because reading ebooks on it (a major boon for e-ink devices) is awful. If you didn’t know, Remarkable can’t read epubs. It converts everything to PDF, which is slow, some images don’t load, and no reflow options.

Exactly right. Human synthesis will be vital and is driven by finding patterns of insight in emotionality, imperfection, and subjectivity. In other words, journaling and personal writing are way too underrated

What a difference an icon can make for user expectations. Bluesky's DM icon feels way faster, lighter as opposed to X's... email service??? I would wager on the long haul people use bsky’s DMs more casually than on X
A circular speech bubble icon with three dots inside, symbolizing a chat or instant messaging feature, suggesting a quick and casual communication style.A rectangular envelope icon with a minimalist design, resembling an email symbol, conveying a more formal and traditional messaging approach.

Spinner is feeling much better and more on brand with thicker strokes, rounded caps, and fewer points. It's surprisingly hard to find a customizable, point-based spinner component so this is from scratch #designsky #design

really excited about the possibilities of atproto for the client application layer we can have TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Medium clients all coming from the same place (we need markdown!) seems obvious to not restart networks just for a different view like we have been doing

Something underrated about the bluesky community is how quickly newcomers shift into normal-posting Yes you are going to see X venting here and there. But if you were there for early Threads I promise you it was 100x worse and they shifted into IG-posting, not microblogging
