Aaaaaand goodbye twitter. The one thing still making you marginally useable was tweetdeck. With that gone, you're no longer useful. For those few that follow me, I'll probably check in once in a while for dms and mentions but beyond that twitter w/o tweetdeck is worthless.

Every day it seems you see a new "Make <something> <something> again." statement on a shirt or sticker or meme or whatever. I have a proposal for yet another one .... "Make Politicians Trustworthy Again"

Seriously @twitter, you count refreshing against the rate even though there's few if any new tweets that -I- see ? #TwitterFail

Where do I set up content filtering in the new @TweetDeck ? Did they remove it ?!

Here's how my day has gone -- I just made this [mostly serious] comment to a friend ... "Figuring out how to do something that can't be done is so much easier."

Stop complaining. At least you have your area all to yourself with a great view while us humans are stuck on this crowded ball of mud AND just going in circles.

The humans let me do the comet tasting thing first back in the day. Now I just go in circles.

Is anyone besides me having an issue with @YouTube where almost every video defaults to 360p ? It's not bandwidth, I have lots of that. Videos play happily at 1080 when I switch them there. This has only been the last few days.

What the living hell is it with today's culture that makes everything from rape to incorrectly made fast food always the victim's fault ?

Do I know anyone who does #windows #programming with #visualstudio code ? I need someone to help me get started with windows programming. Note that I'm a long time programmer, just not windows programming.

Looking for a mentor to help me get started with #android development specificly using #vscode/#platformio. I'm not new to programming or to vscode/platformio, but I'm a total noob with android programming and am having trouble getting vscode set up for it.

#PureMichigan Today started with snow on the ground. Not much, but some. During the day it snowed. Not much, but some. Now, mid afternoon, we have LESS snow on the ground than we started with.
