New post for #MAUIUIJuly!

I took download progress from “boring modal” to “overflowing beer foam” in the #BeerDrivenDevs app.

Silly? Absolutely.
Necessary? Not really.
Fun? 100%.

Check it out, and tell me: would you ship this in your app? 🍻

Replicating the Outlook Mobile ‘Focused/Other’ Switch in .NET MAUI Over the past three days, I’ve demonstrated building some pretty cool UI effects in Maui.Graphics, the 2D graphics library that shipped with .NET MAUI back in 2022. Today I’m going to look at its clos...

Remember the Outlook toggle I skipped?
I finally did it right:
✅ Animated pill (SkiaSharp)

Holy MauiGraphics Batman! Part 3: Clayface-Level Batmaths Welcome back to MAUI UI July 2025! If you’ve read Part 1 and Part 2, you’ve seen the Batmobile throttle and dashboard controls in action.

Today: #trigonometry behind the Bat-needle!

Can our hero's hypotenuse hold firm against Gotham's gnarliest gradients?

100% agree here. The Apple DevEx is awful. The docs are bad, the tools are bad, their approval process is opaque and temperamental. Nothing about the experience comes close to meeting the standards they demand of apps submitted to their ecosystem.

YouTube video by DIY Perks True Wireless Power is FINALLY here (building a TRULY wire-free setup)

This actually blew my mind. This is the future I wanted! I can't wait for this to become mainstream, and already have a bunch of ideas I'm going to submit to their prototype request form.

youtu.be/EyR2-C9ggi0?...

No specific suggestions but I will say your support and budget requirements rule out Snapdragon. I’d say go with an AMD option.

Again not much on specifics but I will say if you’ll likely find a decent budget priced workhorse from Lenovo.

A hand-drawn digital sketch of a handheld games console. It features a large central screen, left and right analog sticks, a DPAD, and XBox style ABXY buttons. It is shaded green with purple trim, include two visible purple shoulder buttons.

A screenshot of a CAD design for a handheld gaming PC. It has a 7 inch LCD screen, two analog sticks, a DPAD, four buttons but they are unlabeled, and two additional buttons on each side (not clear from the picture but these will be start, select, power, and turbo). The case is slightly curved and rendered here at 50% opacity, revealing interior components like PCBs and battery cells.

I made a hands-on .NET MAUI workshop! I built it for in-person delivery (still happy to do that if anyone wants) but it felt wasted sitting in my GitHub.

Hope you're coping ok with this tragic loss Scott. Thoughts and prayers during this time.

You can read more about it here and fill in a form to email Valve CEO Gabe Newell: www.collectiveshout.org/no-mercy-gam...

There's also a change.org petition here: www.change.org/p/steam-remo...

Please do what you can. Absolutely understandable if that's nothing. And please share with care.

Incest rape fantasy game No Mercy on Steam. It's not edgy content, that's _literally_ the aim of the game.

It's blocked in AU (which doesn't stop anything), it's 18+ but Steam is a 12+ platform with no age verification. Shouldn't be on there at all, but calling out that 12yos can access it.

Pretty disturbing so please avoid if you need to.

Screenshot of a Reddit post showing a headline stating “Half of all young people want to be severed.” To the right is a link to the article with a thumbnail showing Mark S from the Apple TV show Severed. Below is a reply from someone saying “This would never work bc my office would expect my outie to answer emails…”

Not sure what changed with #VSCode this week, but it's _really good_. Specifically for C# I mean...properly working IntelliSense code completions, code navigation, automatic namespace imports, pretty much everything you expect. I've noticed it across multiple machines and OSes.

A meme featuring four panels from the Futurama episode "How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back". It features a humurous line from the song at the end but adapted - Zoidberg is singing "They said I probably shouldn't be a brain surgeon" and in the background is a promotional image of Elon Musk with his Neuralink logo. The second panel features Farnsworth singing "They accused me of Nazi hate crimes" and in the background is a screenshot of Elon Musk performing a Sieg Heil at Donald Trump's inauguration. The third panel features Leela singing "They said I probably shouldn't fuck with Cybertruck" and in the background is a Cybertruck on fire. The fourth panel features Bender singing "I am Bender please insert Grimes" and in the background is a screenshot of Grimes' tweet implying that there is video footage of her pegging Elon Musk.
