Wow. @easyJet have dropped ball. Supposed to be in Dubrovnik. Decided to take us over to Milan. Losing two days of holiday. Comms and decision making appalling. Appreciate you can't control weather - but none of this makes sense.. Could have landed in right country and got a car

Kudos where it's due. Actually impressed with throughput at @STN_Airport security right now. Massive queues, but they're moving. 👏

Here I was, playing @playnewworld after a long day at work, and I thought I spotted something strange in the flare effect... Oh wait... #TextureNotFound

Sat here trying to figure out why on Earth @MicrosoftTeams has these claw-like combinations for an always-used feature, and why CTRL+SHIFT+X *only* works after opening the chat. If I want to send expanded message - I know from the get-go? 😵🙃 Am I missing something? 🙈

Nothing like getting woken up at 3:30 AM with your brain whispering "I've got ideas..." off the back of a Dojo you ran yesterday. Yeah the whole "subconscious works on it" is legit. Timing? Terrible. Plus side - it was right! (Hid benchmark names to not give solution away)

Please NEVER tell a hiring manager you're trying to get a job with what you currently make. It is never going to be an advantage to you, ever. EVER. It's like the "don't talk to cops" thing. "I'd prefer not to answer" is fine. Anyone that complains can do one.

With each passing generation, Xbox tries to shame my Pac-Man ghost avatar by shrinking it ever smaller and smaller. I will not yield. I bought this gamerpic for 80 Xbox Points in 2006, and I'll be fucked if it won't remain the best dollar I've ever spent until the seas boil over

So - after repeated comments/drooling from @david_whitney and @MartinDotNet about the Samsung G9, I got one. Now - I can't stop drooling and making comments 🙈 Everything looks beautiful, and OMG the scrolling/panning! 🤤

Love @MicrosoftEdge 's "You clicked a link that needs auth and you probably (definitely) meant to do that in your work profile" (AKA 'Switch Profiles'). Saves me (too) many times 😊

Email: MANY WORDS Calendar invite for 2 weeks later "As per email.<EOM>" PLEASE STOP. A) Not an agenda B) 2 weeks later you force me to go spelunking in email to and re-read to try and remember context. Copy🍝 the email into the invite if you have to! (Had 2 instances today) 😂

Finally wrapped up a blog post that's been sat in draft for AGES. Here's a peek at how I start to approach #learning a new #programming language: dev.to/robcthegeek/de…
