This is my fun social media account, I will post a lot of video game stuff (mostly old or cloud gaming) and some work stuff.
If I post an image with no Alt text it is because the image is just there for decoration and doesn't provide any extra meaning to the toot.

@gossithedog I read this as “lots of issues coming up”.
Im willing to be that right now nobody at Twitter knows what some of those micro services do.
@fntz deleting my tweets and mostly cross-posting to Twitter from here.

@InternetOfGames@awscommunity.social who would want to work for Twitter right now? How are they going to recruit? I don't understand.
I'll request another archive with the remainder that's still on Twitter. Perhaps the archiving software is buggy and it will take a few tries for it to get the lot.
Nothing quite like a good clean. I've just deleted 42322 tweets. The archive Twitter created was not complete though.

@LordArse the first game I recall replicating the real world quite accurately. I was playing the San Francisco level with a friend and he said "I LIVED THERE! RIGHT THERE!" and it hit me that this game was very well done.

Why Gnome GNU Desktop are you trying to be Windows 11😩
My Distro just updated to Gnome 43.1 and now you cannot Drop & Drag from Archive Manager to File Manager, or even Copy & Paste, been a problem with Wayland for 4+ Years but now thanks to GTK4 it effects X11 (x-server), Now i have to mess around just to unpack files/folders, which means 4x times the work😖
@CommodoreBlog "1 megabyte" wow!

@profbriancox welcome to 🦣 ! Thought you’d like - if you run this toot of code on a BBC Micro in 3 hours you get an impression of the Southern Ring Nebula as seen by JWST… it would probably take 6 hrs on an Acorn Electron though 🤓https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@p_malin/109337802759513674
@LordArse so many memories of this :) Playing on so many formats too! I first experienced it on an Acorn Archimedes.

I did a little thread on Twitter about traffic. Elon claimed Twitter was a big source of traffic, the reality is that it's tiny.
About 4% clicked it, and only a small percent of our actual followers ever even saw the Tweet.

RT @CaseyNewton
Update: company sources tell me that yesterday Twitter eliminated ~4,400 of its ~5,500 contract employees, with cuts expected to have significant impact to content moderation and the core infrastructure services that keep the site up and running.
People inside are stunned.

@Ductos I'm not aware of its history other than recalling vividly when it was a current product.

For Sale in the UK
A slightly uncommon pong-style console from Takara. It has a bit of a unique design and is tough to get in the UK due to the included gun - which is also the reason why I can only sell it to people in the UK. It's untested, but I have no reason to believe it won't work £100+p&p #ForSale
@djdellamorte I feel the same. It is a way to tell the author that you liked the toot.
