This also works if you "split" your monitor horizontally between two inputs. If the view becomes taller than wide, Windows will start snapping vertically. It's neat.
Did you know if you have a vertical monitor in Windows 11, you can snap a window to the top / middle / bottom third by pressing WIN + ALT + Up / Down 👀

Having a pretty great Sunday, just reading articles I've been saving for a while.
When I was in college, an app project I made was an Instapaper-style read-later thing called Sunday that worked only on your rest day. I still...kind of use read later apps like that?

Ontarians usually spend the week before daylight savings complaining about its existence, but everyone was so underslept from watching baseball that one hour made no difference

I think sports teams should always be owned by the municipalities they play in, rather than by billionaires & corporations who take advantage of local pride while basically acting as parasites.
I'd care if a team owned by a Canadian city had lost. I just don't care that a team owned by Rogers lost.

Let's say you're a freak/very regular internet person who has YouTube, Instagram, blue sky, etc. Are you following the same people on each one?

Take this, add roguelike buffs in between each inning, and let the player romance or curse the characters.
What better time to write about Sega's influential classic, World Series Baseball, than during the actual World Series? It's not just the gameplay and presentation here that drove the direction of baseball games, but also that it managed to unite both MLB and MLBPA licenses in one game.

Part of being on blue sky is sometimes going through your follows for people who were cool but sometimes yelled into the void about US politics who became people who *only* yell into the void about US politics and maybe cutting them from the roster.

Early on in Hades 2, Hecate casts sheep on you, and you're stuck as a sheep for part of a boss battle.
Later on in the game, you get to use sheep on enemies. Easily my favourite cheap tactic.

Finished Hades 2 this weekend. Here are my favourite lines (some spoilers):
Nemesis underlines and undercuts many of the themes in the game. I never fully melted her.
