Surprised it hasn't happened already tbh. The more time goes on the deeper a hole he's in.

All negative. It's why I've mostly stayed away from news and social media.

Do you really need an upgrade at the moment?

my desk, my streamdecks are in drawers, and my lights are only on to brighten my dimly lit room. I'm sorry you've gone through all that you've gone through.And hope you're doing well now!

Even though I'm still fully remote,I struggle to find the focus to watch streamers any more. It's sad to admit

my way through my new career path. I have all my streaming gear and although I never had someone say what was said to you, something changed after I switched roles, just never felt streaming was something I could do or feel comfortable with any more. My pop up green screen is now my foot rest under

Salma, if it wasn't for streamers like you during lockdown, that dreadful period in my life would have been so much worse. I came into the world of Devrel just as the pandemic hit, but I never truly knew what I was getting myself into. I'm so thankful that I had your streams to work while working

How is the boycott illegal? They're choosing not to buy a specific brand and likely opting for another.

I wonder if that's to stop people who have been blocked from viewing their posts.

I saw Nick Clegg stepping down from Meta to be replaced by someone from Trumps party and wondered what was about to happen. Then these things were announced. Doesn't surprise me.

Ahh. I get a horrible numbness in my hand when pushing a pram, riding a bike, or playing on a handheld console. Never bothered looking at what might be the reason.
I hope it doesn't affect you too much and that you're able to find relief and ways to manage it effectively

Is the numbness constant?

Also.. the email still refers to X as Twitter. 😱

A screenshot of an email sent by Twitter. with the heading :

"You've turned off two-factor authentication for <insert username>"

And the body:

"This means you'll no longer have this added protection when you log in to Twitter. Your account will be more vulnerable to compromise. You can turn on two-factor authentication any time in the Account > Security section of your Twitter settings."

Did you know, deactivating (with the intention to never re-activate, and to have it deleted) your Twitter account also removes your 2FA (Authenticator), so if someone were to guess my user and password they could log in with no 2FA. Great security right there.

Going to be honest here... I misread some of this. I read it as "Just watched my fat ass orange catfish a bit of..." And wondered what did the catfish do?! Might need to go back to bed 👀

I've been wanting to close and delete my Twitter account for a while now .Finally done it, and when you deactivate, you end up in a redirect loop for the log out page 😂 I can't use a social media platform like Twitter.And I can't keep it just in case I want to reach out to anyone. Bye Twitter.

I have one. She's at least 20 now. My kids will be stuck with her if she outlives me 😀

Oh that reminds me to turn off my garden tap. Made that mistake a few years ago. 6am my kitchen was flooded.

Trying to get a refund of an item I ordered, wasn't fit for purpose so sent back.Had radio silence in 3 weeks since knowing they received it.So emailed. I've just had to reply 3 times with the order #.. the original email also contained it. I'm confused why they're confused when I stated what it was

I don't know how I do either. The youngest has been ill for over a week now, and she's infected me.

Why go? I see the go sdk was put on read only 😔

Yeah Ablys good. Very busy writing demos and examples atm in TS and React. (Doing a TS and React version for each)

How are you doing anyway?

It's a really sad time to have such a great platform go to shit.

But I'm also glad to see you talking! I've missed seeing your posts.
