Programming is being ten minutes away from being done for the rest of your life.

@ChristianSelig @WassymBensaid It's so bad. It shows ETA but no clock 🤦‍♂️ At the least, just show duration till end.

@WassymBensaid Can we please see the time in the driver display 🥺

Customizable Driver Display, coming with .46 OTA update on Rivian Gen 1 and Gen 2!

@FortniteStatus What do we do if the cards we bought today were not activated at the retail store? Likely due to the CrowdStrike outage.

V-Bucks card redemption issues have been resolved! You should now be able to redeem your cards without further hiccups: fortnite.com/vbuckscard

We're aware of an issue where some players are having difficulties redeeming their V-Bucks cards. We're investigating and will provide an update as soon as we have more info.

@jp2e If you get video of the Echo hub, please show us how fast it is to scroll, swipe, and navigate. This part is almost more important than reaction speed of controlling devices. If it's anything like the sluggishness of their Show devices, it's a deal breaker. Thanks!

@radiohouston @getchannels pre-release versions automatically get updated to the latest stable release. You can do it all manually now it you want, everything is resolved.

@getchannels If we’re on pre-release do we need to force the install?

We're currently dealing with a guide data outage. Follow along and get more information as we have it here: community.getchannels.com/t/outage-grace…

The FCC wants to hear from you about encryption coupled with future ATSC 3.0 over the air TV format. Tell the FCC that we do NOT want our local TV encrypted so that we have choice in how we can watch it. Learn more about how to respond to the FCC here: youtube.com/watch?v=0b8fiU…

@chacon @anaisbetts @Its_stolt @bmizerany The v branches are cool, but now I'm looking forward to @chacon's chroma project he just got side railed with.

@anaisbetts @Its_stolt @bmizerany Yeah, but I would need to setup a second laptop to run it, plus have two capture cards. I'm not sure if it's worth it unless I'm trying to do a live stream like this (which would be cool).

Virtual branches are about to be a thing and they're pretty cool. Also, I feel like this is a way more interesting way to do a screencast as opposed to a little face in a circle in the corner. Your thoughts?

Channels drafted #3 by @alexhcranz in the first annual @verge Streaming Service Draft! theverge.com/2023/4/12/2367…

"Takes him to the schoolyard" 😤 @VCU_Hoops

Channels v5.6.0 for iOS went out last week as well. Along with the tvOS changes, it adds these: • Downloading now works over cellular. • Optionally use lower qualities when downloading to save space. This will transcode on the fly as it downloads. These are off by default.

Original Quality Delivery allows you to force HLS even while at home on Original Quality. This lets you use HLS for unstable Wi-Fi networks and is a great trick to enable longer buffers for devices without enough storage. Learn more here: getchannels.com/docs/apps/usag…

Channels v5.6.0 for tvOS went out last week with some nice additions: • Spoiler Free Mode will hide thumbnails of unwatched recordings. • Original Quality Delivery will let you swap between Direct and HLS at home. • Big performance improvements for larger libraries.

@RetroGameCorps @dbrand How sticky was it?

Well, I did it. I removed my leather skin, for science. This better be worth it, @dbrand

@ContainerStore I bought something at your store today and they refused to give me a receipt unless I gave them my email address. They said they don't print receipts anymore. Besides the privacy aspect, providing a proof of purchase, is your stores responsibility, not mine.

@carygolomb Weird, cause it’s still blurry as hell on my 85”

I don't know if this is a hot take or not but here goes: The Switch Pro already exists and has existed since 2019. It's just that Nintendo didn't call it anything different. Mariko Switches offer a massive generational bump in battery life.

@carygolomb @NintendoAmerica Someone should tell Nintendo why ps5 and XBS games are $70.

Hey, Listen @NintendoAmerica Since your games are $70 now. Could you please include a real manual in the physical boxes. Also, Zelda games are supposed to be GOLD cartridges! Signed, A Nintendo Ambassador
