@jwilker @mpospese I once filled a feedback for a first party app sending unsolicited push adverts and it came back saying there was no plans to resolve it.

Lmao, our hotel for next weekend in Montreal (Formula 1 weekend) has cancelled our booking because they are "overbooked"

We booked last July, and they are informing us 1 week before arrival?!

To me, it sounds like it's because I booked before they had the chance to hike their rates. And now I have to scramble to find somewhere else.

@podomunro Sounds like a hotel kind of thing to do.

Went to a Lego show today. I had a great time!

A Lego model of an LNER train passing through a station. The train is blurry because of the speed.
A large scale model of a German castle made from Lego. The gate house is red with sand turrets. The main castle is white with blue roves. The caste is in a mound with bushes and trees.

@twostraws @mikaelacaron @swiftovercoffee It made me feel old.

@dimsumthinking @twostraws @mikaelacaron @swiftovercoffee I’m really glad it made you feel young, having something new to explore is a wonderful feeling.

RobW,
@RobW@iosdev.space avatar

@dimsumthinking @twostraws @mikaelacaron @swiftovercoffee I agree with all of this.
The reason it made me feel old is that I found myself saying things like ‘well, in objective-c…’ and it just sounded like I was saying ’back in my day…’

With the events in the US overnight I think it’s a prime time to remember that sex work is real work.

a wooden post on the grass next to a green tent. on top of it, there’s a small crime scene with yellow police tape, in it clippy is dismembered on a pool of blood. attached to the post is a sign saying ‘detectives wanted’
me sat in a gazebo in the sun, wearing a flower print top and shorts, sat cross legged with my laptop in my hands, you can see the lid covered in colourful stickers.
a lit up sign on the grass that says EMF 24, you can see a big tent on the right and a disco ball is reflecting a bunch of pink light into the picture

I recently saw on here that it was possible to stop Xcode from navigating for you by disabling this in the Behaviours settings. I had no idea this was possible. So this post is to firstly thank whoever that was for vastly improving my Xcode experience, and secondly let others know this is possible.
Unfortunately there doesn’t appear to be a setting to stop the canvas from appearing. Please reply if you know of one.

@RobW@iosdev.space avatar

@gbuela @MuseumShuffle I have to do that for every file every time I open Xcode. It’s what I do currently, it’s just repeptative.

RobW,
@RobW@iosdev.space avatar

@MuseumShuffle Yeah, I generally delete the previews as they mostly provide me with no value. But I’d rather it just didn’t make the canvas appear.

No, am certainly not delusional enough to imagine that anyone ever listens to these, I just enjoy making them as a record for myself.

I just threatened to legally change my six year old daughter’s name to “Hagrid” if she didn’t get in the shower.

It didn’t work. Now she is naked and running around the house kicking people in the butt.

@tonyarnold She’s called your bluff there. You have to go through with it now.

My dentist has a fun little otter running around in the whatever the bottom menu is called on a pc and I don’t know if that’s the kind of software that should be running on machines handling confidential medical information.
But hey, it’s fun! What’s a bit of casual exfil when the payment you get is so cute!
