Nobody talks about why the most likable people often go home feeling the loneliest, and it isn't ingratitude or social fatigue, it's that likability is a skill built around reading the room and adjusting yourself to fit it, which is almost the exact opposite of the skill that lets anyone meet the real you

Peter Molyneux is disappointed, BUMMER: the Fable reboot won't feature the classic look-changes based on deeds (horns for villains, halo for saints). 🤨

Playground Games explains the cut as both a technical headache (high-res models + multiple genders) and a deliberate move away from simplistic binary morality. Rather than visual effects, NPCs will react according to their own values. Release is still scheduled for autumn.

Eric Swalwell Says He Will Resign from Congress in Wake of Sexual Assault Allegations

"I am aware of efforts to bring an immediate expulsion vote against me and other members," he said in a statement. "Expelling anyone in Congress without due process, within days of an allegation being made, is wrong. But it's also wrong for my constituents to have me distracted from my duties. Therefore, I plan to resign my seat in Congress."

I might have to rethink my position on #HTML in email.

Currently, any mail with an #HTML part never gets marked as #HAM. Nearly all #SPAM emails contain an #HTML part. Over time, this means more and more emails (that have an HTML part) are treated as spammy. As a result, I have a huge #whitelist of email addresses so stuff from (say) the bank doesn't end up in the #SPAM folder.

I might have to start accepting that #HTML can be #HAM.

#Bummer. 🙁

Well I have started the process of upgrading my #music #studio! First item on the list is the audio interface. Just got the new #Focusrite #Scarlett #18i20 4th gen today. Rather large upgrade from my nine year old 2nd gen unit with some cool features.

Unfortunately....I had one helluva time getting it set up. First, my #Mac never recognized it as being plugged into any USB port (USB 2, 3, or USB-C) or USB cable used. Second, the control #software intermittently recognized it but would fail downloading the new #firmware. Third, the unit mysteriously powered off during troubleshooting. It is *completely* dead.

I've hooked up the old one again but this was...disappointing. I will start the return process tomorrow morning.
