When I interviewed for Beam Software back in 1994, they had me play Bubsy and say what I thought about it. I played it, and was like... "this is kinda crappy". And they said "yup, that was a test - if you liked it, you would have flunked the interview" Anyway can't wait to check out Bubsy 4D =]

Oh great a SEVENEVES prequel

This is the way. I know people want the single solution to our food/ag/climate problems to be Everyone Go Vegan or Zero Food Waste but we’re going to need dozens of unsexy partial solutions involving dung. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

It's here! The very first EV from a global OEM that's running on a solid-state battery. Long time coming.

The only good thing happening.

Grifters misspell things in their posts/announcements on purpose, so you share their information payload by "dunking on them". I see it happening all the time. Don't help them spread their nonsense. They don't care that you laughed at them. They care that your followers saw their thing.

It’s me, @mariabamford.bsky.social I’ve just left Twitter. I’m a comedian and had used Twitter to connect with fans and other comedians. I’m not sure how to let people know I’m here. Ha-ha.

Hey new users— we’ve been trying to build a strong culture of expecting alt text. Take it from me, because I’ve heard from them: there are blind people on this app and they appreciate being included. You can also turn on a setting that prevents you from posting images without it, if you forget

It is easy to be hyperbolic in all political commentary, but one should be clear that Trump's rhetoric meets all the conventional definitions of fascism. Many people seem afraid of saying this because it seems extreme or hysterical, but it is what it is.
