  I really hate “Game Mode” on iOS. The only concrete effect I have ever observed is that it blocks the function of the camera control button, a button the entire point of which is that it makes the camera always one button press away. And even when I turn it off, it still pops up a stupid banner (that, unlike regular notifications, can’t be swiped away early) that often blocks interface elements in the game I am trying to play. #Apple #iOS #UI

  @biff As the crowd gathered outside city hall in episode 6, I said out loud, “they’re going to Andor this, aren’t they?” And then they did, except in a way that didn’t really make any sense. And speaking of set-ups that don’t really make any sense, why was the task force sniper dressed as Bullseye? No one could see him; that’s kind of the whole point of a sniper. Who was the mask supposed to fool? If a sniper shot someone outside the library, couldn’t they just say “It’s Bullseye!”? Sorry, out...

  Speaking of SVGs, I have an ever growing collection of hand crafted SVGs that I have made just for the fun of it (or because I couldn't find just the right image for something I needed, so I made it myself). The latest one I put up is warpdrive. It's an animated FTL starfield. It's entirely handwritten (with a little assist from a python script I wrote to generate the many individual stars) and entirely XML/SVG. https://github.com/TRezendes/SVGarden (The version attached to this t...

  RE: https://infosec.exchange/@cxiao/116372431433787566 This is a very good take, and probably the angle I will focus on from now on when teying to explain the harms and lies of “AI” to people.

  The whole Artemis II mission gave me, as they dubbed it, #MoonJoy, but this moment after they splashed down and were still inside the capsule gave me IT Manager Joy: "The phone doesn't work.
