So many hours spent bashing away on that little guy! (And playing Parsec.) npub1f0tpuwtj6wgc93yscngdcx3adprvpkayeywpx3x7ddesql2t9deqhck5m5 Steven Hoefer @npub1wfd…68tj I mean, Captain Tightshorts back there doesn't seem to be doing anything for her, might as well talk to the slug person. npub1f0tpuwtj6wgc93yscngdcx3adprvpkayeywpx3x7ddesql2t9deqhck5m5 Steven Hoefer Microsoft has 220,000 employees (!!!) Recall wasn't done on a lark. It wasn't some rogue coder doing some shit. It passed through probably hundreds, maybe thousands of hands. How many of those people made the "Yes" decision on it when they could have said "lol, no." Lots. That's the thing to remember when companies do reprehensible things like this. It's part of their culture. This wasn't a mistake. They won't change. npub1f0tpuwtj6wgc93yscngdcx3adprvpkayeywpx3x7ddesql2t9deqhck5m5 Steven Hoefer Could we at least get a reliable grammar checker before we ask that grammar checker to diagnose cancer and perform law enforcement? npub1f0tpuwtj6wgc93yscngdcx3adprvpkayeywpx3x7ddesql2t9deqhck5m5 Steven Hoefer Union organizing is up 35% so far this year in the US. Unfair labor practice charge filings also up. A good trend. https://www.nlrb.gov/news-outreach/news-story/union-petitions-up-35-unfair-labor-practices-charge-filings-up-7-in-the npub1f0tpuwtj6wgc93yscngdcx3adprvpkayeywpx3x7ddesql2t9deqhck5m5 Steven Hoefer Once I learned that medical providers are instructed to distract patients with conversation in certain situations, it's impossible not to notice. And knowing I'm being intentionally distracted while they monkey with my body is a bit alarming. I'm trying to figure out how to let them know the very best way to distract me is to talk in detail about what they're actually doing and why. npub1f0tpuwtj6wgc93yscngdcx3adprvpkayeywpx3x7ddesql2t9deqhck5m5 Steven Hoefer FYI: anything an American business does between December 24 and January 3rd will be skeevy as hell hoping it gets no press. For example, Amazon just announced that all of Prime Video will get ads. npub1f0tpuwtj6wgc93yscngdcx3adprvpkayeywpx3x7ddesql2t9deqhck5m5 Steven Hoefer Got a Sharper Image catalog for the first time in … decades? At any rate, had to explain to the teens what it had been. The catalog was quite sad. More SkyMall for grandparents than gadgets for rich single men. My partner and I agreed the only thing interesting and attractive in the entire thing was one of the models. npub1f0tpuwtj6wgc93yscngdcx3adprvpkayeywpx3x7ddesql2t9deqhck5m5 Steven Hoefer Thinking a lot about the tomato soup recipe whose ingredients included cans of tomato soup. npub1f0tpuwtj6wgc93yscngdcx3adprvpkayeywpx3x7ddesql2t9deqhck5m5 Steven Hoefer @npub15te…wdn7 I feel very strongly it should be menacing something, maybe climbing the chimney or looking in a window. Chasing the mailbox isn’t really doing it for me. npub1f0tpuwtj6wgc93yscngdcx3adprvpkayeywpx3x7ddesql2t9deqhck5m5 Steven Hoefer Got the dinosaur bandage after the blood draw today. 🦕 I was so excited! Adults need all the whimsy we can get. npub1f0tpuwtj6wgc93yscngdcx3adprvpkayeywpx3x7ddesql2t9deqhck5m5 Steven Hoefer @npub1dm5…5sqe Oh yeah, the way they display them is … curious and barely helpful. Finally getting around to messing with this stuff this weekend after life and SD card shenanigans. Playing Pico-8 stuff on game hardware is so nice (when it works). npub1f0tpuwtj6wgc93yscngdcx3adprvpkayeywpx3x7ddesql2t9deqhck5m5 Steven Hoefer @npub1dm5…5sqe Some of the themes have console names or other ways to recognize them: https://www.rg35xx.com/en/customization/garlicos-themes/
