Hey @Hi_MINISFORUM, I would really like to collaborate on an upcoming video series I'm making. Would you mind DMing me so we can discuss it? I can't find any direct emails to reach out to you at. Thanks,

I have 3 computers in my hands right now. My desktop is the 2014 Mac that is crashing 3 times a day, my second is a borrowed Win laptop that Is al least stable to do light development on but honestly I'm getting more productive work done on my Chromebook. Linux FTW!

Also, finally got off my lazy ass and put my VSCode config into a GitHub repo. If this works, I shouldn't have to spend hours setting up my environment from scratch ever again. Hope I .ignored the right folders. 😝

Switching gears on Mon. I'll still be doing game dev on the side but I'm going to focus on DevOps. I started my career with a group dedicated to TDD, documentation, and automation and I was very happy. The last few years have been... not that. I look forward to automating it all!

It's sad but I'm going to have to put my 2014 Mac out of its misery. The internal drive died 3 years ago and it's required a hard reboot 1 to 3 times a day for the last 6 months. I can't work like this anymore. I have got to get a new dev PC.

Is it just me or is the ending of Boarderlands 3 trailer a jab at Anthem's loot issues? Maybe I'm still a bit sore. youtu.be/x4o5g_PGkiA

Devastated by the reports out of New Zealand. The community in Christchurch is in our hearts, as are all affected by this horrific attack. “I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.” - MLK

Just catching news of the mosque shootings in New Zealand right now. So much innocent life lost to violence. My heart aches as my mood sinks. This is no selfie but a moment in time when my heart was breaking. My thoughts are with the suffering families. May they find peace.

Hey @Devilturnip, do you have any CD cases? I'm not sure what to do with this thing anymore. I guess I could fold some paper around it. 🤔

I just burned a CD of photos for a friend. I had to dig this 24x USB 2.0 CD-drive out of a cardboard box full of misc. computer parts. I have literally no idea when I last burned a CD. No idea...

Hey @Devilturnip, just want to see if Twitter is really banning people for this. #LearnToCode!

The only reason I've launched Twitter this year is because I can view posts in cronological order again. #timematters

Had to switch my 2014 Mac mini back to its 5400rpm drive from booting off a USB 3 SSD and now my phone is MUCH faster than the computer. 😫

Anyone pick up a Google Pixel Stand? I would love it if you could swipe an NFC scanner over the Stand and see if that is how it works. If it does have an NFC code, please send it to me. I want to try and make my own.

Anyone interested in an unlocked, mint condition, 128 gig iPhone 7 with a @twelvesouth HiRise stand? I’m selling mine here: swappa.com/listing/NVM830…

Has anyone found or compiled a list of apps with support for @Apple’s new #Shortcuts app? I was a beta tester and log time user of @WorkflowHQ so I’m anxious to make the most of its successor. Please let me know if you’ve found any 3rd party apps that provide Shortcuts actions.
