@s3thi I can relate a lot of this, especially the feeling that some of the early success got entangled with the sense for fulfillment, both existed but for totally different reasons that took a while to separate (it's still a work in progress).
Glad you are able to articulate this though. Onwards <3
@nemo Maybe it's because they also want customers to have an unlocked/pre-setup phone to test if everything is working?
My peeps, take this to heart. You’re damaging your community (both its growth and sustainability *and* the individual folks who belong to it) by sticking all the important stuff just in Discord https://mastodon.social/@gamingonlinux/111165769496298049

The Bored Ape NFT team hosted an event in Hong Kong where they blasted attendees with UV light, giving them (temporary) eye damage.
Crypto is a gift that keeps on giving.

I have been working on Puzzmo, in secret, for almost two years now with @orta.
Puzzmo is *the* place to play daily newspaper puzzle games online.
TODAY we are launching a brand new daily crossword (designed to be approachable like all of my games) alongside with 2 other new games from me (and 3 older ones reimagined)
During prelaunch we only let in 500 people a day, so get at em!
I hope you enjoy Puzzmo!
‘Tis the day! 🤩

Weathering With You was so so good. Watching it in the theater was absolutely worth waiting for.
Has anyone here had good experiences with generative AI writing code? I've tried GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT, and I haven't had much confidence in the output aside from trivial things.
And then I see stuff like this and I'm wondering if I'm the dumb one in this ecosystem 🤔 github.com/irgolic/AutoPR
@nemo 💯
I guess one way of triaging is to just junk some issues altogether
