FFS #Microsoft why on earth does the start menu need to look to the Internet for local applications? On my work-provided laptop here and can't start anything by a simple search #WindowsProblems #Windows11

#ReasonsToLeaveWindows When I want to run a program, I want the Start menu to just show it when I type the name, not struggle to find junk on the Internet to wrongly show to me #Win11Problems #DitchWindows

That moment when one of your dear friends texts you at near midnight to tell you she's just realised she met David Tennant a fortnight back at a literary event and only just realised who she was talking books with for part the night. 😀

As a senior software developer with about 20 years experience in the industry, I find it worrying when I'm having to explain to other developers how a simple "include=/dbo/*.sql" rule works in a project file to include all files of a certain type into a C# solution. They should know this.

Playing my quiz game today, I almost had a perfect score. I Stumbled on the last question. #quiz #16questions #pubquiz #uk #quizgame 16Questions.co.uk 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟥 15/16, Game 170

How did we end up in a timeline where the US defence secretary spends half a press briefing attacking the free press and pushing false claims about journalism. It's like they forget the world's press is there, not just local media. No other G7 nation does that. That should set alarm bells off.

Oh look at that, the new #CritterCove update is out. It's a really nice little cosy game in development, has Animal Crossing-like vibes but plenty of additional stuff like exploring islands and going diving underwater.

#MicrosoftExcel is 39 years old this year, and you still can't open two identically named files at the same time even if they're in different folders. Maybe one day, this fundamental flaw will be fixed. #microsoft365 #excel #microsoftoffice

#QuestionTime worth pointing out the #Reform party now in charge of #Lincolnshire county council has shut down the Flood and Water Management Scrutiny Committee. You know, in the county that's had unprecedented floods the past decade. I hope they're held to account at the next floods.

If you're in the #UK and enjoy #quizzes , why not check out my #16questions daily quiz game? No registration to play, 16 daily questions from 6am GMT, and I just added a team and league mechanic. 16Questions.co.uk 🟥🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟥 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟥🟩🟩🟩 13/16, Game 153

To badly paraphrase #BattlestarGalactica, "There's a reason police and the military are separate. One fights the enemies of the state, and one protects the people. When the military are the police, the enemies of the state tend to become the people" #LA #Riots #US

#QuestionTime if we can spend 700million on the failed Rwanda plan, why on earth can't we fund immigration processing departments at consulates around the world? Surely if you can go to any Consulate and start an asylum claim from a safe country, the smuggling gangs would be out of business

I launched the team mechanics for #16questions last night, allowing players to create teams that have their own scoreboards, and also the league system to pit teams against each other. Hopefully it'll provide some additional entertainment to players. 16questions.co.uk #quizgame #generalknowledge #uk

I introduced my 6 y/old to multiplayer #StardewValley and he's gotten really into it. Annoyingly though I end up doing all the work, with him mostly running around doing nothing useful, or occasionally 'helping' fight monsters in the mines. But it's still fun.

Alex meets some of the most senior (and competitive) taskers in the country. Thanks for having us at Seccombe Court. #taskmaster

Great job #Lincolnshire voting in #reform for your county council. Being a climate-sceptic party, they've just voted to scrap the Flood and Water Management Scrutiny Committee. You know in Lincolnshire, that place prone to high risk flooding? Hope you hold them to account at the next floods.

On a series of training calls with work, the consultant has been raving about #AI code generation tools (powered by models like #ChatGPT), [using Cursor]. ... he's yet to have it generate code for our demo that works first time. One sample required him to fix his code overnight between sessions.

Is it just me, or does Portugal's entry look so much like American actor Mark Ruffalo? Also I had to double take with Greece, as I thought their entry was Michelle Visage. ... maybe I need new glasses. #eurovision

If Sweden wins with comic singers this year on #Eurovision, we need Bill Bailey or Alex Horne and the Horne Section representing for the #UK next year.

Watching #eurovision, as a Brit, the pessimist in me has me fully anticipating we'll be scoring in the bottom quarter of the board as usual, but I'd like to think we can make top quarter.
