XOR NO MORE - Dizzy 1 is one of my favourite childhood games - I tweaked it to remove all slowdown (pre filtered object tables, render rain/logs as 1 stage xor, not 2, use interrupt and flyback technique from dizzy 2)... which leaves headroom to do backed opaque dizzy (ala d2!)

Hi @grok - what's your opinion on Elon Musk's theory that rats actually evolved from squirrels that were maimed in accidents and lost their tails?

Twitter (for queue Elon) use down by about 90%, and when I do log in, it's ALWAYS crypto scams. So sad. This used to be a worthwhile platform.

Decided to report every phishing / crypto scam I got served today by Twitter's safe clever improved advertising. 11. And I've not been on much. Wow. Clearly all the actual advertisers have fled.

Wow. Almost every ad on twitter is now a 50x crapto scam or a fake Martin Lewis scam. Well done Elon, you rock. If any of my incredibly small number of followers wants a bluesky invite, shout, this place continues to slide.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Sunak is actually asked to use the hammer sideways in the full version of the clip, he asks if that way is correct and she replies yes. x.com/ionewells/stat…
