Thanks @phoebe_bridgers for spending 451 minutes with me in 2022. I couldn’t stop listening to Halloween… I hope one day every day can be Halloween; that it’ll be okay just to be ourselves. #SpotifyWrapped open.spotify.com/artist/1r1uxoy…

@TransLink FYI calling one of the platforms at 29th or Nanaimo “inbound” is arbitrary. It’s confusing. The announcer should use “North Platform”, etc

@TransLink Can we get some type of time frame? Am I stuck on a train with no AC?

#SkyTrain Expo Line is experiencing delays due to fire near 29th Ave Station. Updates to follow. Canada Line and Millennium Line are unaffected. ^ns

@arielaaaaaaaa I’ve literally been eyeing the Jobo system. Gonna buy the Duo in august as my first entry to film!

Got a hot tip on a Jobo Lift CPE3 that I’m picking up tonight … for $500 with all the fixins!!! 🤩 a dream is coming true today 😭 I thank my lucky stars for you 🐔🍑❤️✨

@TheHolyKau Ya absolutely, Apple has definitely been providing false pretence of purpose of privacy.

@Stuart_Weir Great q, it does give a 3rd option. Identity protection is the same, just IDFA is useless unless you have a proprietary data set to match it to. My problem is the misrepresentation re privacy. Apple isn’t protecting user privacy, it’s just monetising it. That’s lying.

Very few people know how apps make money. Fewer understand that Apple is a piece of shit for pulling the absolutist, crappy move called ATT which crippled the industry. Here's a simplistic explanation on how millions of app developers monetise in the ~$100B+ app ads market:

@TheHolyKau Real question here: isn’t this still protecting people’s identity (or at least giving people a 3rd option over Google and Facebook) in order to receive these ads and allow apps to monetize in a safer way? I recognize two-faced Apple is doing this, but how is this worse than G/Fb?

Acquiring users is going to get more expensive, users are going to have shittier experiences and app monetization is going to get harder. Unless, of course, Apple creates its own ad network. Looks like they did! twitter.com/sethmills21/st…

@lowkeydbjosh Hey Josh, do you know if there is a fix coming for Wattson fences? As a Wattson main, overall I love her changes in S11, but I'm losing fights when I shouldnt because my fences just don't... get placed. Lots of red or simply nodes arent connecting.

@alisaxayalith Feel better soon Alisa!!

I feel bad that my bf has to wait on me bc I have COVID. I got him slicing lemons for tea and making me a batch of steel cut oatmeal 🙃

@New_Westminster there’s a lot of car accidents at the intersection of Boyd and Duncan in because it didn’t get salted so there’s a ton of black ice. I wasn’t one of the car accidents, but is the city going to cover the damages caused by lack of proper road care?

@coreywolfen Maybe you can buy your BP MP back? 😊

@FreyaHolmer If only someone had explained it to me this way years ago... THANK YOU!

btw these large scary math symbols are just for-loops

@justinbaldoni, @lovaalvilde’s song “Daddy Issues” should be the theme song for Man Enough Podcast: open.spotify.com/track/4avjM7B6… P.S.: loving the podcast!

@backlon interested to know how "macro" the macro is on the new Pro iPhone models. Is it true 1:1? Can you please let us all know in your review?

@sarah_edo Congrats Sarah! You deserve it!

🎉 I'm thrilled to announce that I've accepted a new position: Director of Engineering, Core Developer Web, at Google. I'll be leading the Web Infrastructure teams that power all Google apps including OSS efforts like Angular.

@TELUSsupport you _still_ have not reported that there is an outage of internet in Queensborough, New Westminster, with no ETA of when it will be fixed. People have jobs that depend on your internet.

@namike0 @RKRigney Woah that’s super strange! Had no idea I was giving my location away haha

@Stuart_Weir @RKRigney Literally just commented this and was telling my friends about this like yeah I’m glad I get a bunch of Nessie’s but there is a very revealing bug that wattson has and it needs to be fixed because you can literally see it through buildings dexerto.com/apex-legends/a…

Why not be able to use shield cells/bats faster? or regen shields faster on their own (w/out pylon), or make the fences do more damage? What do the devs seem to think the hold back is?

@RKRigney I guess I'm just trying to understand what @Respawn is seeing that Wattson mains are not? Are any of the suggestions people are offering even on the table to help make her more viable?

@RKRigney If you cant tell by now, I'm a lil salty about the Wattson changes (or lack there of). In an effort to be more productive, legitimately, what are the reasons @Respawn @PlayApex is choosing not to buff her? Are there real numbers besides "win ratio" that are indicative?
