The new #GoogleFiber app has awful performance. You'd think as a direct customer it would be pretty snappy. Nope. Dog turds.

This has been obvious to me for a long time. My wife and I have gone out hiking on many occasions and they inevitably bite me at 10x the rate they bite her, or more. We'll come back in after a hike and I'll have 6-7 bites and she'll have zero. "There were mosquitos? I didn't notice."

Is it just me or has #XKCD become less and less relatable over time? Mostly these days it's a coin flip between obscure academician name dropping and "elaborate graphs comparing things that shouldn't really be compared, but nice job spending 12 hours drawing that I guess."

Ugh, are you kidding me? #Godot cached json files after I opened and closed them in the editor. It kept re-writing them every time I saved my scene, after I made changes externally to the json files in Notepad++. Annoying and wasted 20 minutes trying to track it down, had to use Procmon.

My Alexas are borked. I can ask them for the time and that's about it. Everything else like the weather, music, and notifications, she says it's "not working as expected."

@shalkith.bsky.social You're letting an AI agent just post random garbage on the internet? Shame on you. Turn it off.

This hub looks really nice and it fills needs that the default project manager fails to provide. That said, I am leery of just installing stuff from Github without a stamp of approval from the #Godot devs.

You know how to get a ton of new people learning #Godot and using the #GodotEngine? Make a blueprint designer like #UnrealEngine has and gather up all those people feeling abandoned by Epic's roadmap. Bonus, have the ability to import or convert actual UE blueprint files.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

The longer we allow grandpa to rage post to distract from the EPSTEIN Files, the more danger he creates for the safety & security of the world. Any doubt he would use nuclear weapons in a heartbeat if he thought it would benefit himself? I'm with Maj. Jason Watson: IMPEACH. CONVICT. REMOVE 🇺🇸

A bit sad. Looking at the newer pixel art assets on Itch.io and there's a disturbing amount of AI slop on there. Take the time to comment on and rate that garbage as appropriate.

I was skeptical, but 007: First Light is REALLY good. Top-notch production values, fun gameplay. Missions sometimes feel a little too easy on the standard difficulty, but it's a fun ride so far. I have not finished it yet, so there's plenty of opportunity for the difficulty to ramp up.

There’s scant evidence of trans women preying on cis women, so I have no idea why “male violence” is even brought into the equation; the only justifiable reason to bring up male violence would be to highlight how trans women are victims of it, and making them use male spaces would make matters worse

Happy Mother's Day Two to those of us who grew up with a single mother who did the work of at least two people to raise their kids. For me it wasn't an ideal childhood, but no one could say she didn't bust her ass every day to get shit done.

Until internet access & computers are provided for free to every citizen, trad. access venues like voice telephone & live service agents at counters (w/free parking, ramp access, etc.) for essential services like banking & utility accounts should always be available. Anything less is discrimination.

I think putting up bird feeders may have been a mistake. Something like a woodpecker was making loud hammering noises in the middle of the night, and not the fun kind of hammering noises.

Here's a thought experiment. Imagine you are suddenly extremely wealthy, like a billion dollars. Once you travel the world & have a nice home & have all the nice toys, what is next on your agenda? You don't have to work, your investments will buoy you forever. So how do you fill your time?

Single mothers are heroes. Often they are flawed heroes because of the strain of being a single mother in the US -- a society that doesn't have enough of a safety net for them.

I'd pay for an upgraded #Scrivener with easier theming, or for good low-contrast dark mode themes. Getting it to an acceptable point took time, even starting with one of the decent dark mode themes as a base. A lot of the other less-used windows are still a mishmash of color.
