Tesla has texted or called me at least 10 times in the last month to offer incentives if I lease a new car with them after my Model Y ends at the start of May. They are quite litterally desperate.

If I chose to re-up with them I could get quite a deal. I’ve told their reps multiple times I won’t support Tesla as along as Elon Musk is the CEO of the company. Gotta wonder how long Tesla shareholders will put up with him in charge. https://mastodon.online/@electrek/112201815082910986

JoeWelch,

@gedeonm you probably know this, but Rivian has dog mode and has been having some decent lease deals recently. Have you considered Rivian?

    JoeWelch,

    @psychicparrot42 I build a few custom keyboards and now EVERYTHING else sucks! I’m traveling for the holidays and have to deal with that MacBook Pro keyboard and I hate it.

    @psychicparrot42 what’s your favorite Steam Deck games so far? Looking to grab some new ones.

    here’s an open game design problem i have:

    let’s say you have 100 teams you want to put on a leaderboard against eachother.

    the sizes of the teams range from 3 to 1000 players.

    everyone on the teams is playing the same game.

    what’s a fair way to put these teams against eachother?

    i want players to feel included, but i don’t want anyone to feel like they’re “bringing their team down”, so the obvious “average score” doesn’t work

    JoeWelch,

    @aaronschendel @helvetica We didn’t want to go with only top half averages because then players would just make small teams of only fast players and their average would easily be better than a large team with a variety of skill levels.

    JoeWelch,

    @appleinsider Naperville, Chicago? Might want to correct that to Naperville, Illinois. It’s not in Chicago.

    Do you use the Apple Watch “Walkie-Talkie” feature?

    JoeWelch,

    @cabel I use it with my wife when we lose each other in a store. Great for that use case.

    This is fucked up. No other words for it. A REINSTALL is charged to game devs.

    JoeWelch,

    @gamingonlinux what in the actual fuck? Guess our “delete and reinstall” response to fix most issues will now cost us lol

    Ok, but what if I like leather? I don’t want fake leather.

    JoeWelch,

    @film_girl the leather Apple used was very poor quality anyway. Much better options from third party companies.

    this is literally shocking: https://www.gamedeveloper.com/business/unity-to-start-charging-fee-pegged-to-game-installs

    unity has been going the adobe route for a long time, but now they've really jumped the shark.

    JoeWelch,

    @helvetica I think my company is gonna be forced to switch. If I’m reading this correctly, I think we’ll owe them millions of dollars. We have five active F2P mobile games with Unity. Over 130 million installs x $0.02 = $2.6M. Yay.

    I hope I’m missing something, but I don’t think I am.

    @psychicparrot42 they have triple screen support so it looks promising so far! Hopefully they have some decent POV settings.

    Love Slack's .

    What do you think of the that launched today?

    https://slack.com/blog/productivity/a-redesigned-slack-built-for-focus

    JoeWelch,

    @chrismessina still waiting for them to rethink threads. Excited to get this new version, but man do threads need work.

    I earned more interest with my Apple Savings account in the 3 months I’ve had it than I have in the last five years with my normal savings account. And it only has about 1/6th of the money in it.

    Seriously considering moving my entire savings over to Apple.

    Apple's high-yield savings account hits over $10 bln in customer deposits https://stocks.apple.com/Ap8-zeW10QnikZyTS3naSqQ

    JoeWelch,

    @agiletortoise @gedeonm same. I’m getting 4.8% with Wealthfront. Tough to beat that.

    Discovered today that City and Colour (Dallas Green) released a new album back in ... March. It's very good.

    I wish Apple Music was better at surfacing these new releases. https://music.apple.com/us/album/the-love-still-held-me-near/1652972937

    JoeWelch,

    @ChanceHMiller this is why I’ve gotten into a habit of checking https://www.albumoftheyear.org every Friday for new releases. I’m a Spotify user and even they sometimes miss some recommended releases for me.

    JoeWelch,

    @ChanceHMiller oh yeah, and the new City and Colour is amazing. Also check out the new Susto album that drops this Friday.

    Long shot but...does anyone have a video rip of boygenius at Coachella (week 2)?

    JoeWelch,

    @ChanceHMiller interested! I hate how they didn’t leave up the replays.

    How has the end of third-party apps like Apollo affected your Reddit usage?

    For me: I've used Reddit less than 5 times since Apollo went dead on July 1.

    JoeWelch,

    @ChanceHMiller haven’t touched Reddit since Apollo died and don’t plan to.

    It's a beautiful way to support Apollo and get 20+ amazingly designed wallpapers. 💙🎉

    JoeWelch,

    @christianselig I bought the pack through Apollo and noticed some of the ones that were previewed are missing. Is that a bug?
