The Trump admin is about to cut housing grants for the formerly homeless.

HUD plans to cut aid for permanent housing by 66%, slashing over $2 billion and leaving 170,000 people at risk of homelessness again.

Everyone who would be affected is disabled, and many are 50 or older.

So, another thing pissed me off and motivated me to move.

#Rebrandly has decided to gate my access to my own URL shortening which I was only made aware of when trying to update majors.house/ttt to techtalkthursdays.net.

Finally moved over to #Shlink for more #SelfHosted goodness!

You all honest to God think that the eight Democrats that voted to end the shut down just happen to be people that weren’t up for reelection anytime soon or at all? If you think that I can’t talk to you.

NEW: Valve is bringing Android apps to Steam. Not only can the Frame run side-loaded Android APKs, Valve will be inviting Android devs into its store.

Imagine what this means re: Google forced to crack open Android. Also: Meta Quest games are low-hanging fruit!

Just want you to know that when I asked Geoff why he gave the silent treatment to an open letter written by his own "future of games" program (& co-signed by 3000+ industry peers), he replied:

"Because that's my show and nobody gets to tell me how I should use my platform". 💀💀💀

Why would anyone want to put bad Lumines gameplay on the internet?

Because he really wants attention and he had the day off from work.
