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.

@juddlegum he has obsessed over Twitter for years and he has endowed Twitter with fantastical properties, in his mind Twitter is too exceptional to ever fail. He seems to think that somehow Twitter drives humanity’s collective thought… we know better, we know Twitter is basically humanity’s soiled underwear.

@SubstackInc@twitter.com Interesting that Musk sees competition as some kind of violent attack and not a part of a healthy economic system.

Musk now considers @SubstackInc@twitter.com "the company trying to kill Twitter."
@badastro this so much.

When I was kid, in TV shows and movies, villains knew they were villains.
We were lied to. In real life, they don't know that. They think they're the heroes, and I suspect that's a part of the problems we're facing.
@bob oooh. Stepside Tundra 😃 they are not practical but I have a thing for stepside trucks.
@johnmacintosh lol. That’s so incredibly cheesy, so Microsoft, so retro. I love it. I love the simple thinking there how do we sell an American console to Japanese people? With a hamburger!!!

Xbox Japan ad with Bill Gates (2001). This feels like something made in Midjourney. #RetroAdvertising #Xbox

It's Easter Sunday, a perfect day to play some EGG-themed games! 🥚
Why not start with some British classics, the Dizzy series? 4 of the adventure-platformers made it to IBM PC:
Fantasy World Dizzy (91)
Magicland Dizzy (93)
Dizzy: Prince of the Yolkfolk (93)
Fantastic Dizzy (94)

@janbeta you do deserve it 👍 you are a legend.
And if you could please approve my follow request I’d really appreciate it 😄
I’m not a Microsoft fan generally, Windows in particular is a product I deeply dislike. However, Copilot is a master move! I predict that Microsoft’s stranglehold on office work will get even stronger over the coming years. If I were Google I’d be crapping my pants. Even I’m using Bing and Edge!… not Windows mind you, never ever Windows! I’d rather not use computers and eat wild squirrels in the woods than use Windows. #AI #ChatGPT #Microsoft #Copilot

@ryanhoulihan no company I’ve ever worked for has ever considered their Twitter presence to be of much importance at all.

Elon Musk thinks all these companies are so desperate to tweet, but the truth is for most publishers and corporate accounts, Twitter is not a source of any major traffic. No company I’ve ever worked for for literally anything from Twitter but networking and it’s not great at networking. It’s a smoking section in 2023

Realised today that even though i moved my old personal Mastodon to a new server, the old one was still somehow live and getting messages. Sorry if I never replied. That account has been removed. Best way to ask me anything official is always over email.

A new beauty on board, a continuation of the adventure from 30 years ago.

I decided to get a cheap mechanical keyboard for my upstairs desk to match my downstairs desk. #keyboard #keyboards
