Exciting news! Zed now has native Git support starting from v0.177. Designed for speed, Git-native functionality, and a keyboard-first workflow.

I use Swiper, seems well maintained and the most popular slider library.

Delved into GenerateBlocks 2 properly today, seems like a great upgrade. Appreciating the work the GeneratePress team is doing.

Maintenance time on one of my old Ruby on Rails apps at the weekend to upgrade the Heroku stack. It has held up so well over the years and whenever I return to it, the code is so clean and nice to work with!

@queerdevperson.bsky.social Hi, I saw your member spotlight on TAB. Great post. Just wanted to mention your site is showing an SSL error in Firefox for me (desktop + mobile) but works in Chrome. Error message MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_REQUIRED_TLS_FEATURE_MISSING

After a few years using Windows 11 and #Linux under WSL2 for main gaming & development machine I have replaced it with #LinuxMint. Much more lightweight and streamlined. Picked Mint over LMDE due to better driver support with my hardware.

Found out this weekend that my favourite local pub is closing. A reminder that we need to support independent businesses before they are all gone.

Thanks for posting Liam - I hadn't heard of Combined Arms until now. I'm a huge C&C fan, can't wait to check this out!

Recently switched from #Ubuntu to #LMDE (Linux Mint Debian Edition) on my Starlite laptop. Runs perfectly and love the cinnamon UI. My favourite distro so far! @linuxmint.com

Good question. I consider anything before PS1 and N64 retro, when things shifted from mostly 2D to 3D. PS1 was same year as Doom 2 interestingly.

Bluesky reminds me of the early days of Twitter. Just finished setting up my custom handle. ๐Ÿ™Œ
