@_kelindi Yeah. I played games on my ZX Spectrum+ and then started making my own little games. That’s what got me into programming.

every software engineer is just someone who wanted to make video games and quietly gave up on that dream

@TavernFootball Joelinton!

Back by popular demand is the landlord drinking game. We're looking for players past or present called Joe. Only ONE answer is allowed to be provided and you can't say Joe Cole. Failure to do so and the tray of shots comes out.....🥃🥃🥃

@Corballyred Agreed. Both players deserved better. All the players will have seen this treatment of two legends. Look at how City interviewed Silva and Stones on the pitch. Thanked them and let them say goodbye. I think unfortunately Slot has a poor relationship with the squad.

There is something unLiverpool about Liverpool at the moment. If Klopp was manager he'd have been on the microphone with Robertson and Salah also saying their bit. Instead we got Slot slumped in a chair and LFC afraid to give Salah a microphone in case he said something. And where were John Henry and rest of FSG to show their gratitude to Robertson and Salah who helped make them 100s of millions by adding massive value to the club. Also where was the football guru Michael Edwards, he is getting paid massive amounts of money by LFC and has been missing all season. This is not how Liverpool are meant to be run. UnLiverpool like 👍

🚨BREAKING: Keir Starmer has told friends that he intends to stand down as Prime Minister and set out an orderly timetable for his departure [@DailyMail]

@Choyaa13 @richardtgarland I knew it was on but agree there was zero build up. I miss the old days of teams doing an FA cup song, football focus and the final being the pinnacle of the season. It’s been this way for a while. Maybe there’s too much football on tv but something just feels off.

I genuinely didn’t realise today was FA Cup final day. I remember when there was a huge build-up and TV coverage lasted most of the day. Watching the highlights and seeing how flat the whole thing looks now with a half empty stadium really shows the FA cup has lost its magic.

If you remember this, you’re old as fuck.

@Cantona_Collars Fergie really was ruthless but he got results and trophies.

30 years ago today, United travelled to London for the FA Cup Final But club captain Steve Bruce was left behind in Manchester Dropped. No farewell. No grand send-off. Just Fergie making another ruthless decision as his great side evolved again Bruce left the club days later

@Saraita101 Also people often wait for 12+ hours in an A&E Strange how no one erupts over that.

guys rent is about 1000 per month

@AmarGandhi @felixrieseberg Thanks! Is your code public anywhere?

@KevinCowan @felixrieseberg It's a Pico Display Pack 2.8" by Pimoroni. This seemed the right middle ground they have a smaller one and also saw a few E-ink displays that looked tempting but maybe a little too much for now.

Hi! I'm here with *another launch*, it just happens to be extremely niche, nerdy, and probably only for a handful of people. In the desktop app, Claude Cowork and Code now have a little Bluetooth API for makers & developers, allowing you to build hardware devices that interact with Claude. I, for instance, built a little desk pet that alerts me whenever Claude is waiting for permission.

@AmarGandhi @felixrieseberg Oh cool. Just saw your post. That’s really neat. What screen are you using?

@KevinCowan @felixrieseberg Hey that’s cool I’ve ported the whole pet game onto a Pico if you’re interested?

@felixrieseberg I'm trying the Bluetooth API with a Pico W - it's advertising per the spec and macOS sees it clearly, but the Hardware Buddy Connect button is permanently greyed. Dev console says BuddyBleTransport has no handler registered. Dev flag I'm missing, or a bug? Thanks!

@felixrieseberg @ModricFanboy It's there now! Thanks Felix! 🙏

@ModricFanboy @KevinCowan Hi! The feature flag went out a little slowly but it’s now with everyone! If it doesn’t show up, please restart your app 🙏

@MrBoldOne @EmiratesFACup Enjoy your quadruple, pal.

@TheRealJamieKay I was singing the song in the advert the other day 🙂

Does anyone remember this?

@bcherny Hi Boris - this is a much better experience! Thanks In 2.1.90 the 2 spaces at the start of each copied line in the terminal was resolved but seems to have reappeared in 2.1.91 github.com/anthropics/cla…

Let us know what you think! We're actively iterating on this new mode, and can't wait to hear your feedback. code.claude.com/docs/en/fullsc…

Today we're excited to announce NO_FLICKER mode for Claude Code in the terminal It uses an experimental new renderer that we're excited about. The renderer is early and has tradeoffs, but already we've found that most internal users prefer it over the old renderer. It also supports mouse events (yes, in a terminal). Try it: CLAUDE_CODE_NO_FLICKER=1 claude

@exQUIZitely We eventually used the keyboard for this - pre internet if your joystick broke it could be weeks until you got it fixed or replaced.

Rumor has it that to this day joysticks still hide in fear when they hear this intro music… The 1500m run at the end of Decathlon - oh, the painful left-right-left-right at high speed until you heard that all-telling “crack” and knew it was time to say goodbye to yet another one. Joysticks would either fall victim to rage quits (damn you, Ghost'n Goblins) or attrition. Can you remember a game that cost you one in the past?

@90sfootball This looks better than football games now 😃 Sensible Soccer on an Amiga and FIFA on a Mega Drive was all we ever needed.

We all ran away from the ref from FIFA back in the day!

@coreyhainesco @BenSabic @quuu Nice work! We were trying to upload this to CoWork. I was able to restructure the repo locally and upload as a plugin but maybe I'm missing something. Thanks!

First community contributions merged! Shoutout @bensabic and @quuu 🙏 Reminder: The whole thing is free and open source 🙂 npx skills add coreyhaines31/marketingskills github.com/coreyhaines31/…

🚨 Big update to Marketing Skills for Claude Code 26 skills. 29 tool integrations. Better performance across the board. Here's everything that changed ↓
