Also from me, just went live: A piece about how the current state of fighting games has made the cost of competing far more expensive -- and how that keeps a lot of potential talent away from the limelight

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

California debunks one of the main anti-renewables talking points

wtf is figma doing now. I want to copy TEXT from a TEXT BOX Jesus CHRIST man

My dental hygienist remarked to my wife that I didn't talk a lot when I go in for cleanings which is completely true. I still think what opportunity do I have to make conversation with this lady I see twice a year when most of the time I spend with her I have her hands in my mouth.

The experience and ease of use for filament 3D printers is so much better than resin printers that it makes them so much more useful to me regardless of differences in print quality. Not having to worry about resin cleanup is so huge.

Awesome event check the archives if you're interested: www.twitch.tv/videos/23278... . We raised $6,3880.00 for the Raiden Science Foundation, but just the event is over, that doesn't mean you can't still contribute: www.raidenscience.org .

YOOO! We crossed $4K raised for the Raiden Science Foundation. Completely blown away by our slice of the FGC.🙏

Our stream kicks off TOMORROW NIGHT! 8pmEST on twitch.tv/fightrisefgc

A little time left to enter to win some prizes and donate to an amazing cause! fightrise.com/charity

Tune in for a good cause and for good games. I help out with some of the production tools for the Fightrise stuff, it's a good community that loves the games and doesn't take itself too seriously.

How is the android port of Balatro? I haven't played the game at all even on PC, but everyone says it's great.

You know what'd be super cool? If Bluesky could fill the void twitter left by working out a deal with the console platforms for easy sharing of clips and screenshots.

A couple Apple TV shows that don't seem to get as much praise as the usual ones, but I've been enjoying with my wife:

1) Shrinking
2) Sonny

Free upgrade from cable to fiber. All it really changed was my upload, but hey I got fiber finally. Just wish I still didn't have stupid data caps.

Ok, is this where I'm supposed to be instead of threads? Can we just have a place that isn't trash where I can follow cool people. I hadn't logged in here for a while, but I guess this is where everyone is jumping to now?

I hate that half of the people I know in real life are split between bluesky and threads, and the people I don't know, but like to follow are still on twitter.

Yes, the clip is a year old, but it's new to me, and I laughed my ass off so I'm sharing it with you: www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMIg...

Watched Leave the World Behind on Netflix last night and it had a lot of tension and build up and then the end just felt kind of dumb

Where my old peeps from twitter and facebook at? It's so cold and lonely here.
