Least surprising news I've heard in a while.

Great time for Patreon to expand more into content delivery.

Oh right, yeah, it really irritates me. I'm sure it comes from some Growth Team experiment where the only success metric was interactions (intentional or accidental) with the box.

Making the box increased engagement with the box, ship it!

Writing sign-in and authentication can be difficult. Google handles it for you. They'll also store all of the secret stuff that you don't want to leak, like passwords, etc. So I can see some of the appeal for sites of a certain size, but not really Twitter.

Yes. How else would it get there?

If the company grows they don't need to have desks for every new person, so they won't run out of space as quickly, saving the cost of relocating to a bigger office for further down the road.

 

I just wanted to make this little post to say that after losing my previous permadeath save after 12 hours, I persisted, and made it to the center on my second attempt.

I kind of cheesed it though, thanks to the teleporter on the anomaly, and a guy named Jeff Pesos who happened to have a base one hop away from the galaxy's center.

I did manage to do this on the Playstation many years ago, but I recently got back into the game on PC and wanted to 100% it.

Anyway, that's it, thanks Jeff Pesos!

Taskmaster's Birthday (taskmastersbirthday.com)
 

Several months ago there was a QR code on an episode that led to the linked website.

Today's finally the day it says yes!

 

I used to fish a little bit as a child with my great-grandfather's incredibly heavy rod. I stopped fishing as I got older and then picked it up a little bit back in September.

I've been fishing for around 6 days (several of them were full 8-hour days) and I finally caught a fish this morning!

I'm so glad to know I'm not doing it all wrong.

 
 

I haven't looked up when Greg's actual birthday is...
