@Carnage4Life it never ceases to amaze me how terrible these people are. What truly scares me, though, is that some VOTE for these candidates BASED ON their terrible views 😱

@cshirky @k80way I am with Clay on this. QR codes allow restaurants to change the menu constantly, which is necessary in the pandemic for supply constraint reasons alone! "yes and" is fine, but QR codes.. good lord, I blogged about them in 2005 and it took THIS LONG to even get there!

@timbray https://t.co/ed1sjBMmnC

@snemarch If it lets us track down murderers, I'm unapologetically for it. I got my mom and dad to sign up too. https://t.co/HNPU40q2YT

@tarczonator is.. is..is.. it the sex and drugs stuff?

@nadavsamet https://t.co/PUwmnmNkGZ

@jamie_maguire1 Reddit is actually useful, though woefully undermoderated and hamstrung by the "free speech at all costs" mentality they started with

@esesci such as...?

@jonovate no, I have no account there

@PoBK the tree question is a joke, google it. I edited the HTML on that one.

@jongalloway @NookTtocs Pootie Tang

@spies_please maybe in Idiocracy

Seriously 23andme, can you f off with this absolute nonsense? What a waste of my time. https://t.co/grboOSSXQ1

@meglio @discourse no, not familiar with the book. I'd read the last 5-6 years of blog entries on https://t.co/k84OylSuUV for context (don't worry, I've only written two blog entries in the last 2 years so it's not that much reading..)

@Steve_Yegge but more seriously, what would maybe work better is more training required if you choose this breed

@Steve_Yegge .. by pit bull?

@chx yeah it's a really optimistic take

@cwodtke @perfexcellent did you watch the Curb Your Enthusiasm episode on Namaste? 🤣 https://t.co/4MXMZxJfXQ

@waxpancake great! Hopefully more artists do this, but only the established ones that have their fortunes already made can probably *afford* to.

@axlotl Not that it isn't interesting and bad and dangerous! It absolutely is! But I want people walking around with quickly patched iPhones, not giving up because "well, they can do it any time they want, so what's the use"

it's certainly taken a while https://t.co/GkDV08JV8P

@Nabil_Silva it's good to be aware of, *if* you have reason to believe you are on the radar of a nation state.

These are very, very expensive zero-day attacks that get burned almost immediately after use. You have to be on some *serious* player's radar, almost a nation state, to get targeted by this.

@lizardbill @shepherdsworld I still loved the shit out of it when I re-watched

@SpaceTimeAlien @discourse ok, sorry for the confusion! How can we update the website to make this more clear? I'm listening! 👂

@kuhpunkt @tylercook @chetfaliszek AYANEO 2021 Pro

@triffidTV She's an American Hero

and hey, it was!

@chetfaliszek @eviltrout I mean, I already own a Switch.. and there are sooo many games available on the switch.. where's the value add? 🤔

@chetfaliszek @eviltrout yeah, mine is that same form factor as well. Perhaps the small tweaks will make it better? I've been quite underwhelmed so far.

@eviltrout @chetfaliszek yeah, it's all kinda the same stuff from the same vendors (AMD), produced in extremely large quantities at relatively low prices. The interesting thing about steam deck is basically the price. But you still want to avoid emmc storage, too, because that's brutally slow..

@tylercook @chetfaliszek that is a very fair point and also it might be better designed. Still, I've been underwhelmed with mine and the hardware is _very_ similar.

@chetfaliszek I've been kinda underwhelmed with the version I have, which is functionally identical to the steam deck in terms of hardware. Maybe Valve will do it better.. somehow? Cheaper is better, of course!

@SpaceTimeAlien @discourse We're very unclear what you are talking about here. All our plugins are also open source. Check the license files if you don't believe me.

@Carnage4Life These things are so hideously ugly, I will never understand

@steven_odb @gruber @indragie I think so? ARM didn't go well for Windows, obviously :)

@chetfaliszek already possible with a few similar devices, though this one is perhaps more polished. The GPUs on these things are weeeeaaakkk though, 1280x720 at best and not at high settings either.

@andreipopovici If you sit close enough, the 83" should work ;)

@simplicio823 yes. Going in with high expectations makes it really tough. However, there are a few times I went in with high expectations and had them exceeded: Star Wars comes to mind.. it's ultra rare!

@jonpryor well, there is infrared touch where you mount arrays around a large screen, and it's terrible. But capacitive touch is great https://t.co/jTBVmRZRTV

@gruber @indragie ok maybe it wasn't coming, but ayyyy M1 macs!

@rbonini @kevindente see https://t.co/jTBVmRZRTV

@CarlosGtrz @theratsass epomaker nt68 https://t.co/Oz3cfMaqZh

@jcoehoorn Yeah I wonder what percent actually sold. There was a time deadline as well. No way of knowing..

@isocroft not "outdo".. just "keep doing!"

@BobLovesData 🥺

@andreipopovici I have it on 4k hdr blu-ray and plan to watch it on my fancypants 83" TV soon!!

@textfiles it's great! Well done!

@shog9 🤗 I am all about pulling others up. I think that's our primary purpose.

I see you @textfiles in the credits!

@successfulsw @PixelsGreen Yes! Re-watched it recently. Brilliant.

@spanktar @blunderalong Damn, that should be on the list. Saw it with my mom in this amazing art deco movie theater in Richmond, VA.

@AethonInvictus @jeffwhelpley yeah no doubt Pulp Fiction should be on my list. First "indie" movie to go really big!

@lizardbill @shepherdsworld I've rewatched it and enjoyed.. why do you say that?

What I'm really saying here is, never rest on your laurels. Keep building. Keep creating. Keep striving for.. well, you fill in the rest :)

@kevinmontrose the lesson is: keep doing interesting things! Don't stop!

@waxpancake @internetarchive did you buy that auction? Cool stuff. You know @ThisIsSethsBlog was a producer on those games!

@kevindente how great would this be?! A giant, and well earned, fuck you to Clarence "worst Justice ever" Thomas.

@waxy this is an amazing article, well worth a read

@NKCSS yeah it's over, they may do a new one

@henbas yeah that's probably at least $60k for free

@waxpancake I requested a printed 25 cent check lol. I want an artifact of finishing this damn puzzle!

doin' the math, there were 550k puzzles, sold at $24.99 each. Let's say they made $10 profit from each one? That's $5.5m, and total prize pool was $1,437,500. I'm guessing they didn't sell _all_ the puzzles though, so perhaps around $3m / $4m? And minus cost of production.

I'm so loaded 🤑 https://t.co/elyYVk854w

@kevin2kelly no regular oil changes either, nor spending time at gas stations..

@pamelafox @jessfraz hard to say, kids are so different.. the kid I have in mind loves cats and computers so it'll be a hit, I think!

@jessfraz oh wow I am ordering that immediately, I have a kid who will love it!

@0xSotiris @voxodeus Ah sorry I don’t have an ETH address but I loooove the lunar surface thank you!!

@rerun_adam @ciaranjodonnell Doesn’t work. For the same reason as this… https://t.co/Pvp9mZZ2m2

@danluu you're basically on to it: it's about the willingless to be emotionally open, e.g. being alble to tell other people risky things they could potentially use against you

@lexfridman wow. amazing get for the podcast. Ask Zuck if he'd ever be brave enough to let someone else run his company.

@waxpancake @cabel oh I've heard that many times, but I indulge in 80s music a lot

@GordonBarr @siracusa Isn't there a website that does this remarkably well? I remember one making the rounds recently that was so good at it people were amazed?

@alt_tag Ohhh those are nice! @betsyphd knows

Woooooooo we are 25 centillionaires!! https://t.co/4LofBEgPgZ

@dmarthal art style doesn't match. I was going for matching art styles.

I set up a little office space for my coworker https://t.co/PNyiBNCguc

@DocPop That's awesome! We have a Pitfall cover art throw blanket.. https://t.co/cbcgINY4jm and check out this doormat.. https://t.co/tleVtbcjQL

even on the moon, Canada's government still felt the need to write the greeting in both official languages 🤣

@superthom @waxpancake as mentioned in the comments, the ms. pac man port for atari 2600 turned out to be quite good, which always shocked me.

Here's the actual text from each country; it's rather poetic https://t.co/SoqnHLJwO5

@ercnwsm @waxpancake yes, I got that a lot as a kid. I was pudgy.

@joshboyd that's excellent! I worked with them to refine both a bit (they had some game boxes with weird version-specific art on it, I got them to replace with the "original" boxes)

@LeeAtBenf beautiful!!

aw man, both of these were from an Etsy shop that has now closed down! :( It was "NerdHerdPrinting". We worked together to make it just right.

@pashdown yeah! I have that book and the poster book as well.

@lexfridman "I believe the true lesson of Radical Honesty is that truth, real truth, is honesty with a purpose." https://t.co/1R75Depb6T

@OmarShahine we have radiant floor heating, and man, I do NOT miss the loud furnace coming on..

@damjancvetko Yeah I was wondering that myself

@donpark What’s the best article explainer on “toxic positivity”?

@btaylor @stevesi I agree but think it’s gonna be a tough GoPro type path for them.

@mocutobi I read your bio. You can't stop me.

@johnolilly are you aware your car's warranty is expiring, John?

@frededison oh wow. website looks identical to 2001.. https://t.co/2RBHTZM1De

@lizardbill yeah I assume some form of this has existed in Windows for decades, due to accessibility

@lizardbill I use inverted, extra large cursor.. it's my fave. Always inverted so it's always visible no matter the background! And there's that "ping the cursor" hotkey for accessibility, right? 🤔

@paul_e_cooley wow. I don't see that.. _at all_

@twang I became ambivalent on this once I learned he was a hardcore anti-vaxxer and (per sources) likely died from COVID

@Carnage4Life I love this. Another piece of advice that I found works surprisingly well: even if you're not happy, try to behave like a happy person would. It kinda shifts your attitude a bit each time you do it.
