Thanks to a good friend of mine I have a “tarta de queso” (cheesecake) recipe that is the Squarespace of baking. Even I cannot mess this up and I think this one turned out particularly well.

Has about a million calories per gram 🤣

Sorry that I’ve been quieter on here than usual this week. It’s been half term and I’ve been trying to engage in some self care and family time 😊

@andycarolan I just saw that @bardi is looking for someone to design the Tusks app? Maybe the two of you were meant to cross paths?

Diablo 4 - season 4 manages to stick the landing. I can’t really target the tangible bits that are better but the whole game itself now feels cohesive and fun.

@finestructure I just started a seasonal character and everything just feels more fun than when I played it the first time. Some of the reviews say it better than I do: it does feel like a brand new game. https://www.vg247.com/diablo-4-season-4-loot-reborn-big-hit-with-players-reaction

Every day, software just gets more and more shit. I wonder about the cognitive load that people carry just to work around the bits of software that are broken. (This is the preferred currency list in Apple’s App Store Connect btw).

I’m always apprenhensive about setting up a new phone because I never know what to expect from setting up banking apps again.

There’s the super easy: they send you a link in an email and it gets you straight back into the app. Win.

There’s the secure middle ground: scan a QR code from your old banking app with your new device and you’re all set up. Pretty good.

And the old school: thanks for trying to log back in. We are snail mailing you a passcode. Maybe you’ll get it in 3-5 working days.

When choosing your cellphone wallpaper/backgrounds, do you prefer Vibrant or Pastel?

gastonrampersad,
@gastonrampersad@mastodon.social avatar

@andycarolan I voted but I feel it’s still mood dependent, for me at least. Mostly vibrant though.

Decided to watch football instead of playing Badminton tonight and it’s been an excellent call. Two great games again!

Do I know anyone in the UK who moved out of teaching jobs to go into technology? Where did you go? What did you do? A family member is looking for a change of roles but I keen to use his teaching experience for something new.

@gastonrampersad@mastodon.social avatar

gaming pc question. At some point I’d drop Windows and move to a gaming focused Linux distribution. How do I go about finding out if the distribution I want to use (don’t have one in mind yet) is compatible with my pc’s hardware etc.
