This is my fun social media account, I will post a lot of video game stuff (mostly old or cloud gaming) and some work stuff.
If I post an image with no Alt text it is because the image is just there for decoration and doesn't provide any extra meaning to the toot.

This vent + cup holder fitting is genius. It keeps your drink cold, thanks Isuzu 😄 I still don’t know why they can’t divert some cold air to half of the glove compartment though.
@MissingThePt it’s genuinely difficult to know if you are shitposting or not. Weird times.
@darth I’ve resisted playing it 😄

Noooooo! Wilko is useful for small bits of hardware locally when I can’t be bothered to drive to a large out of town hardware store like B&Q https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-66395824
@ActionRetro I’ve never wanted a Smart… but I do want a lifted Smart!!! I didn’t know I did until this toot.

Looking forward to next year’s twin release of Marie Currie and He-Man.

One of the machine's I've been after for ever was the Apple IIc, probably after seeing it in use on a beach in the film 2010 the year we make contact by Arthur C Clarke.
Well, I managed to get one really cheap. It arrived today & it's in excellent condition.
It's an NTSC machine but with a modern PSU so it works in the UK. Also means the composite output is colour (PAL is mono).
Now I need to learn how to use it #retroComputing #retroApple #apple2c
@MissingThePt They're just trying to bring down the greatest president in history, that's what they're doing. But I'll tell you, we'll fight it, and we'll win. We always win, right? So don't worry, it's all just a lot of fake news and lies. They can't stop us. ”.
PS: yes. AI generated this.
@MissingThePt As Trump’s representative on Mastodon (according to me just now) my statement is “Well, you know, folks, let me tell you, my arrest, it was tremendous, really tremendous. Nobody has ever seen an arrest like this before, believe me. The best arrest, believe me. People are saying it was the most perfect arrest ever, okay? They can't even believe how good it was. But the deep state are claiming Al Capone’s arrest was better. It's all a big witch hunt, a total hoax.

Disappointed that this Apple developer demographics survey cuts off at “10 years or more” because I don't get a chance to show off how old I am.
@Wurfi so Castlevania 👍

Do you guys think in the future much programming will be writing specs and pseudo code and having AI translate it into a programming language? A new layer above high level programming languages?
Random thought…

@sean I agree with you, I rather have readable wordy code than one or two lines of utter confusion.

I've been playing on #codewars lately and it's fun
But most of the "top" solutions seem to be too clever to be readable
I prefer dumb code that everyone can read
