The Threads API is available to more developers — here’s hoping Micro.blog gets cross-posting ability sometime soon?
Pretty cool story of Canadian kid NickEh30 working at Fortnite streaming hard enough to get his own skin + emoji in the game.
At some point the WordPress world (and the web in general) is going to have to work through the very real accounts of Matt Mullenweg being a bully on a web that his software runs 40% of.
I’m very excited to aspire to play all the cool looking games announced at this week’s Nintendo Direct but then never feel like I have the time to actually play them and continue collecting random skins in Fortnite.
I have no idea why I have a “cancel my Snapchat subscription” as a reminder. I don’t have a Snapchat subscription. Now I’m playing the “what rhymes with Snapchat?” game to figure out what service I wanted to cancel.
Parenting is wild. It goes from “I’ll never get sleep again. When will the poop diapers stop?!” to suddenly they have their own vehicle and don’t need you to drive them to school anymore. 😢
Blessings to all the parents with children who are into VR games like Gorilla Tag. Never has being active looked and sounded so ridiculous. 😆
Of the two “For You” algorithm bots, the one on Threads shows me more interesting posts than Twitter does. Twitter is mostly rage farming, Threads is interesting tech stuff I haven’t seen with a sprinkling of exvangelical commentary. 🤷♂️
Finished reading: I’m Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy 📚
I don’t care whether you dig Pomplamoose, but just know that what they’re putting out on TikTok (and elsewhere I’m sure) is the template for what many fans of bands / musicians wish they could watch their fav band do.
If you can’t get your “everything Apple announced at WWDC 2024” video in under 23.2 seconds, I’m not watching it.
Based on nothing more than the keynote video, I do feel like Apple Intelligence hits closer to the “why can’t AI make my day to day life easier instead of creating weird looking artwork?” vibe than anything else I’ve seen from other AI start ups.
It still can’t do the laundry though.
Nice write up by @ultranurd@mastodon.social on the recent wholesome games announcements.
Me: i think I’ll check out the lyrics to this song and then go back to adding more songs to my queue.
Apple Music: The hell you will. Good luck getting out of the lyrics view without skipping around the song and eventually rage quitting the app entirely.
Being able to lock any app behind Face ID is pretty slick actually. I love VoiceNotes, but have started to wonder about security of private thoughts being wide open to anyone (kids) on my phone.
“I’m in the business of losing your interest And I turn a profit each time that we speak”
Such a good lyric. Well done Noah Kahan.
I know everyone’s been waiting for it, but I finally published my WWDC 2024 wishlist, Vision Pro edition. If you don’t have a Vision Pro, you can’t read it. 😜
Every parent thinking “Well at least my kid never used this parental control bug to get around our settings” — yes they did. 😆
Quickly mowed the lawn before more rain hits this afternoon. Now I’m a sweaty mess and putting on headphones to edit podcasts isn’t a great experience. 🥵
