I'd be an insane genius if it wasn't for how stupid I can be.

@BlackPanthaaYT @wrighty_tweet Actually has better visibility. Still very illegal in most places because of the damage it does to roads. Glad to see a car guy realizing that they can be fun but they should not be unsafe to others.

@shehackspurple A lot of the people I talk to at local breweries and orchards and cider places all come from IT. We all burn out to a farm out west.

@ChkUOut @JoeBiden Not an American so I’m curious why him ? From and international perspective Obama was great for freedoms and science.

My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.

@ecs00721156 @ChkUOut @JoeBiden I’ve met very few non Americans who prefer trump with the exception of a few local terrorist groups. I’d love to smear your sources.

With the sustained, higher temperatures in the upcoming weeks, our green spaces will continue to stay very dry. This means wildfires are more likely to ignite and they can spread very quickly. We are now showing a Wildfire Danger Rating - Extreme @cityofnanaimo @IAFF905

@LinusTech I don’t really know what happened, but my guess would be that a newly indoctrinated college graduate met the real world, and their programming kicked in.

There were a series of accusations about our company last August from a former employee. Immediately following these accusations, LMG hired Roper Greyell - a large Vancouver-based law firm specializing in labor and employment law, to conduct a third-party investigation. Their website describes them as “one of the largest employment and labour law firms in Western Canada.” They work with both private and public sector employers. To ensure a fair investigation, LMG did not comment or publicly release any data and asked our team members to do the same. Now that the investigation is complete, we’re able to provide a summary of the findings. The investigation found that: - Claims of bullying and harassment were not substantiated. - Allegations that sexual harassment were ignored or not addressed were false. - Any concerns that were raised were investigated. Furthermore, from reviewing our history, the investigator is confident that if any other concerns had been raised, we would have investigated them. - There was no evidence of “abuse of power” or retaliation. The individual involved may not have agreed with our decisions or performance feedback, but our actions were for legitimate work-related purposes, and our business reasons were valid. - Allegations of process errors and miscommunication while onboarding this individual were partially substantiated, but the investigator found ample documentary evidence of LMG working to rectify the errors and the individual being treated generously and respectfully. When they had questions, they were responded to and addressed. In summary, as confirmed by the investigation, the allegations made against the team were largely unfounded, misleading, and unfair. With all of that said, in the spirit of ongoing improvement, the investigator shared their general recommendation that fast-growing workplaces should invest in continuing professional development. The investigator encouraged us to provide further training to our team about how to raise concerns to reinforce our existing workplace policies. Prior to receiving this report, LMG solicited anonymous feedback from the team in an effort to ensure there was no unreported bullying and harassment and hosted a training session which reiterated our workplace policies and reinforced our reporting structure. LMG will continue to assess ongoing continuing education for our team. At this time, we feel our case for a defamation suit would be very strong; however, our deepest wish is to simply put all of this behind us. We hope that will be the case, given the investigator’s clear findings that the allegations made online were misrepresentations of what actually occurred. We will continue to assess if there is persistent reputational damage or further defamation. This doesn’t mean our company is perfect and our journey is over. We are continuously learning and trying to do better. Thank you all for being part of our community.

@DadGoneDigital @transmutrix I’m not a pro game dev but I targeted my last game jam game at the steam deck. It’s basically zero work. Make sure you support gamepad and 800p and you are fine. Oh and optimize just a bit to save battery life.

@_ROTE_ @StrongTowns Sorry. I'm confused I pay around 30k a year in taxes as a cyclist. I own a bike and a SUV and I pay more in taxes on bike than I do for the SUV. I have no issue with requiring lights on bikes. Same laws as for cars.

@StrongTowns A person riding a bike is not a pedestrian unless they are walking it. If people who work in live traffic must wear ANSI Class 3 hi-viz reflective clothing, cyclists should wear a minimum amount as well. But the engineered solution would be to tax cyclists to pay off drivers…

@Wowhead My understanding of supply and demand and how quickly it sells out tells me these prices are too low. I likely won’t go but I also won’t buy a new sports car.
