Man, my Apple Watch battery fell off a cliff today. Anybody else seeing that on watchOS 10.5?

@dmoren yeah I’ve had that a few times for unknown reasons. Restarts fix it but 🤷🏻‍♂️

Starting to think the custom og images I use are more hassle than they're worth.

Like if I toot a post I've done, the title is there anyway so the image doesn't really add anything.

@robb I started defaulting mine, and can override it on a per-post basis if I want to.

Wonder if TSwift will have anything to say

Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker says Pride Month is example of 'deadly sin' during commencement speech

Of note: I don’t think it should be the responsibility of one woman unaffiliated with the Chiefs to do something about this.

But she IS one of the most powerful people in the world, and her fans are gonna be pissed about this.

This may be a really dumb ? - for @ivory on Mac, when I either type the @ or # signs and get the little slider at the bottom showing me matching accounts/hashtags, how do I navigate those via the keyboard? I'd assume "tab" but that's not right.

@anniegreens Oh I know lol. Just one of my many gripes with the modern web; we've gotta wait on so many orgs to support things.

We spent quite a bit of time putting together a massive ink refill guide for Mark One. If you’ve ever been curious about rollerball, gel, or ballpoint options for Mark One, this guide is the key!

Do y'all have any old handles or screennames floating around in the ether? For today's , I look back on my main screennames over the years, and admit something I've never told anyone. https://niclake.me/whats-in-a-name/

@robb Hell yeah. This rules.

As wrapped up in the local hardcore music scene as I was, I somehow escaped never having a xXxGRAFFITISKYxXx username

Iced coffee season is here.

@kyle Over. 160g of ice go in and chill the tumbler. 22g coffee (finer grind), topped with 240g hot water. Steep 3:30, swirl, :30 more, then press.

I wish I understood why and development has such a strong pull on me. I'm many months removed from the last time I worked on stuff, but I think about diving back in to learning Swift at least once a day.
