@afewbugs pretty sure we already have a phrase for that, it’s called “house arrest”.

@jonathanmatthews for me the entire process took about eight months, with it only being clear completion (and thus payment) would happen about two weeks out. There were also a few 4-5 figure transactions throughout which would have been almost impossible for me to float for 60 days while waiting for a withdrawal.

“Focus solely on building tech products”. Wouldn’t want to get any filthy politics on your network of services that people use to communicate with each other.

Can we please decide whether timelines go up or down? It’s very confusing when I’m mindlessly flipping between apps half watching TV.

@solderandchaos is he coming home to roost? Pretty sure that’s not right. It’s all I’ve got.

@solderandchaos until I zoomed in I thought it was Choking the Chicken, but it’s the wrong way round for that.

@Dianotron @anon_opin comes in a jar with a yellow lid.

@fesshole that’s ok, they’ve got your card on file and will charge you anyway.

@Sbectol @CatherineFlick they have a choice if forking the software from the last version with a suitable license and maintaining it at their own cost or paying the original author. Seems fine to me, no one is entitled to software their business depends upon free of charge.

they call it printf even though it prints all of the other letters too

@rrustema “they” as in the non-gender specific pronoun, not “they” as in a group of people.

@hughrawlinson no, that’s basically it. Also there’s nothing stopping China deciding to flood the market with cut price bonds to force the price down.

Does anyone have advice on regaining control of their personal email? It’s become an unusable pile of marketing emails, endless floods of them drowning out any signal that might be in there.

@Edent if you did that you’d be threatening the time honoured British pastime of complaining about pot holes.

@anon_opin that truck is rolling anyway though, while presumably you plan to drive an entire car containing nobody but yourself to the shops.

@robinsyl @jackeric but it’s zero bytes, what could go wrong?

Finally got round to watching Tenet this evening, my head hurts now, and I may have to watch it another twelve times to try and straighten out the timeline.

@oddly @Edent I believe if you’re doing Google Drive sync to a computer there are a bunch of .gdoc files in there but they’re effectively just shortcuts which open Google Docs on the selected document.

This is what the iOS contact permission prompt should be

Game development continues.

Speed runners commentating their attempts to play Mario Maker while gifs bounce around obstructing them as if they’re single handedly delivering world peace.

@misty @marioguzman I miss when user interfaces had character, Aqua was the peak by not only being beautiful but also really well thought through.

@jhwgh1968 @gsuberland I’ve heard the standard in industry now is to spend the same amount development cost on marketing.
