  6. 🤣 OpenClaw's week was such a train wreck, even Murphy's Law took a day off! 🚂🔧 Instead of fixing things, they managed to turn their software into a black hole of time and patience. 🙃 Plug-ins? More like plug-outs.

  11. A quotation from Samuel Johnson

    To put every man in possession of his own time, and rescue the day from the succession of usurpers, is beyond my power, and beyond my hope. Yet perhaps, some stop might be put to this unmerciful persecution, if all would seriously reflect, that whoever pays a visit that is not desired, or talks longer than the hearer is willing to attend, is guilty of an injury which he cannot repair, and takes away that which he cannot give.

    Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English writer, lexicographer, critic
    Essay (1758-07-15), The Idler, No. 14

  15. Games should *never* put trophies in that are missable during a first playthrough. If I play a game to completion (story-wise or other-wise) but I need to play it *again* doing some specific activity differently - then your game stinks.

    Case in point - playing DA:Veilguard and instead of fighting a dragon (cool, right?) I was supposed to talk someone out of a fight. But I didn't, blocking me from getting that plat. WHY.

  18. Usenet hat mich gefühlt ein bis zwei Semester Studienzeit "gekostet". IRC nochmal mindestens eines. MUDs interessieren mich bis heute nicht. Ist vielleicht auch wirklich besser so. Mitgenommen habe ich aus der Zeit, wie man sich in Online-Communities verhält, und dass man auch Freunde werden kann, wenn man sich nur geschrieben, aber nie gesehen oder gesprochen hat. #damals #timesink

  23. I got handed Guild Master role in a MMORPG I play. Uh-oh.

  24. Ich bin jetzt seit etwa 20 Spielstunden in #BaldursGate3 abgetaucht und muss sagen, dass ich mich denen anschließen kann, die das Spiel brilliant finden. Ich habe so viele Freiheiten, ohne mich verloren zu fühlen, die Welt ist so liebevoll gestaltet und die Quests sin (bislang) an keiner Stelle repetetiv gewesen. Außerdem ist das Spiel zwischen den Partymitgliedern fantastisch! Danke @larianstudios

  27. After a random discussion with colleagues about email vs other types of communications that degraded into the general shittiness of modern email clients I looked up my 2011 rant bsdly.blogspot.com/2011/02/pro and I am baffled how much of it still applies. #mail #email #spam #Timesink #exchange #outlook

  32. Added route matching to the #Strava TUI so you can filter activities by similar GPX routes with a given tolerance. pretty happy with it - worryingly I'm getting more ideas #timesink

  36. @ben Delighted to find you on Mastodon! Your posts on Threads were one of the few reasons I hadn't completely given up on the platform. But now I basically have.

    I can delete the Threads app and save myself a lot of wasted time. Hurray!

    Maybe I'll dip back in there if they ever add ActivityPub support so I can port my followers and those I follow across to Mastodon. Maybe.

  41. We are against #quoteBoosting or #quoteTooting, or whatever. Fediverse grew in popularity because it was different. It was not a #timeSink either.

    Not feeling the pressure to add to the conversation when sharing was a breath of fresh air for us, moving to fedi.
