@thurrott The Pixel brand being a "second tier features for second tier price" runs right up against it with the Fold. The Samsung is so much better for the same price.

The whole "Taylor Swift having lightning in her jewelry means she's a secret Nazi" thing sounds suspiciously like the 2025 version of "KISS stands for 'Knights in Satan's Service'" to me

Every time I opt to rewatch this first episode of The Newsroom it makes me a little more depressed about how much further we are from its reality.

@trebach That's an entirely different set of rules (RSxxxx vs. CAxxxx).

Probably unrelated, but does anybody know why the 4.x releases of Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Analyzers have been unlisted from NuGet? nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.C

We are still dependent on this for our "build & test with latest" validation.

Anybody ever seen a situation where a Roslyn analyzer will report via the compiler but nothing shows up inside Visual Studio? All the other analyzers are working as expected but this one new one just doesn't seem to report in VS.

@KevinFreitas Unscientifically, it looks less snowy to me at this point than in recent years. Checking drought.gov it does appear we're in a severe drought right now.

@KevinFreitas Is it just me or does it feel like it's late for first snow?

We should hold Ruby Central responsible for this mess but here's the thing, there's a very specific person and group we should be holding responsible:

Toby Lutke and Shopify.

They demanded this change and threatened RC's existence if it wasn't made.

They pushed out DHH-opposed funders.

Lay this catastrophe at the philosopher "builder" god, Lutke himself.

Shopify is a millstone around Ruby's neck at this point.

Just a reminder that we have delayed plans to support MTP v2. Any attempt to use any parts of MTP v2 with xUnit.net v3 will result in failure due to incompatibilities.

serious advice for the fediverse though. real talk

*turns chair around*

i think the biggest single reason why people don't stick is they fail to follow enough people

you have to follow lots of people here because whole swaths of the network can be almost totally invisible to you if you don't. follow people until your home feed doesn't feel dead anymore and then keep going

If your first inclination upon seeing a new Mastodon user is to tell them all the ways they are Doing It Wrong, consider maybe just not doing that

These lenticular protest posters / giant stickers are so much better in a larger size. They have a much stronger sense of visual depth, too. It’s… kinda disturbing. As it should be. 🕶️

If you live near Seattle, want to see some bikes, eat some pancakes, and ask a master tech questions, tomorrow Jet City #harleydavidson in Renton is having a 10am Pancake Breakfast with a Master Tech.

If you own a Harley or buying one soon, and may be interested in the Seattle HOG Chapter, show up at 845am and be my guest at our monthly meeting before hand. I don’t know anyone either (well maybe a couple).
