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.

Layoffs are yet another area where companies refuse to follow the science. Here's what the science says.
Layoffs:
- don't save money
- don't improve company performance
- don't increase stock pricess
- destroy trust
- have huge impacts on health, well-being, and income of employees
So why do layoffs? It's a network effect: execs lay people off because other companies are doing it

Are many of your brands you’d usually follow on Twitter on here on Mastodon? I’m thinking about bringing over some Game accounts from Curve Games here but would likely need a lot of support to get them any traction.
@reuters oh man! They killed it. That would be an awesome pet.

@CM30 game devs would hate for Valve to do this. Valve seems to be all about selling games no matter what... Doing a bit of searching it does seem they have banned at least one game, a game about R***!!!
@ianbetteridge this is excellent :)

@gpowerf Definitely better, in one way. On the other, in XCB2 you could make 255-char strings. So you gain something and you lose something...
I'm still trying to figure out *why* the change, and if there's a way to hack longer strings into it. Not being an assembly expert doesn't help me, but I like learning as I'm doing 😁
@JJFlash the way stings work now in XCB3 is a million times better already 😄 at least for me and what I do with XCB.
@JJFlash I started converting some old code to the latest version and then stopped. If only days were 48 hours long. 🤷♂️
