What's Next, Nintendo?

I've been enjoying my time with the #Nintendo Switch very much. I'm getting better at gaming, considering 30 years ago I was still using quarters. During breakfast, my partner & I discussed what could be next for them? My theory: look at #MarioKartLive. It'll be an AR visor.

Lawnchair On A7

I've installed Lawnchair from the Play store & I've been using that on my Samsung A7 tablet. This pic illustrates a first run, but I wanted to show how clean and simple it is. The UX is pretty close to my Pixel phone, and since I can switch off all the extraneous software gadgets, it is much more responsive. Thanks, Lawnchair! 👍

Politics

I've worked as a TA. What Stephen Lecce is doing to Ontario education is enabling your children to fail.

Image is of news release from Minister of Education Stephen Lecce. I'm not going to describe the text because I don't believe in propagating fallacies.

Twitter

I have been able to cultivate some positive online relationships & discourse, thanks to Twitter. Like-minded folks, neatly sorted into some specific niches (with a bit of overlap). Nice, manageable & I can shut it off when I need a break. I can get breaking news, sports scores if I'm curious, the like.

I like Twitter, I enjoy using it. However, I'm indifferent if Musk buys Twitter & leaves well enough alone, but he won't. I'm thankful I still have a blog I can keep here, thanks to Google.

I Hate The Drive Through

I had a Burger King coupon for Whoppers, but their doors were locked & they're only taking drive through orders. This has happened before.
 
I think they've been operating with one cook, one cashier/drive thru operator. That's not sustainable. Start paying people a living wage.

Sorry, Elton
