I won the FNG achievement in Gears of War: E-Day for 19 points on #TrueAchievements

I’ve been moving the full stack of a project I have been working on to use as much of the @cloudflare.social ecosystem as possible - it’s been a learning experience but quite surprising how much they have to offer. ❤️ A write up soon (when the project is completed) if anyone is interested, or not 🫡

I’ve been on a rampage of late. Blasting through old unfinished projects and lists of ideas to get them less unfinished. Ai is a huge benefit in the bits that would usually crush my productivity so I can concentrate on the fun parts of creating. I might post bits one by one as I release them. 🫡

I can't believe that this obvious front for money-laundering criminal lowlifes has been allowed to open on our High Street. And right next to a barber shop that gets used by young kids, too. Disc race.

🔥 New blog post: Dark mode toggles that expose three states (system, light, dark) seem like the best option. Until you think about user goals, that is. Before rushing to disagree, hear me out. lea.verou.me/blog/2026/da... PS: As a data point, @jakearchibald.com was converted after reading this 😅

Something about the #FIFAWorldCup that annoys me, and there is a lot. Is watching it on ITVX and that bloody Google Gemini advert. WTF is #HarryKane doing replacing chilli power with paprika. What dumb ass bs is that? Oh while I’m at it I’ll replace cinnamon with cumin because they look the same ffs

Working on getting my #blog redesigned and resurfaced, do people even look at and even read blogs anymore? Thinking it's more of a personal thing now like a #journal rather than something people actually share to get views. Either way, I'm not fussed, it's still happening :) #sc

Not going to lie, really didn’t expect to see this on the Argos app/website #neogeo #console #retro

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇲🇽⚽️ Had like 2hrs of sleep and back to the weekly grind - ooft 😳 Worth it though 🙌🏼 #worldcup #mp

I feel targeted 🎯

A £5 million "unconditional gift" from a crypto billionaire. A promise to launch a crypto revolution in Britain. Yeah, nothing to see here from Nigel "nine-jobs, five-houses" Farage. 👀

Hmm. We've been boiling the planet, then told them that A.I. will replace all the jobs (while we use massive amounts of energy and water to power the A.I.). Meanwhile, lunatic geriatric men waste billions of dollars of missiles to dismember civilians. Of course the kids are fucking anxious.

Is the era of design-tool lock-in ending? 🧵 Imagine a world where the Design System is the source of truth, and Figma, Penpot, or Sketch are just interchangeable "editors" with two-way sync to code. Pipe-dream or the next logical step for UCD & AI? Thoughts?? community.penpot.app/t/is-the-des...

What if AI could handle the repetitive parts of design work for you? In this clip, we discuss how AI agents and MCP can automate workflows, boost productivity, and give product designers more time for creativity and strategic thinking

Literally the last thing I want when searching for ‘Bluesky’ and straight after the official Bluesky app ffs 🤦🏻

A quick comparison between SVG rendering and the new WebGL renderer in Penpot 2.16. The difference becomes obvious when working with larger and more complex design files Would you switch to WebGL? We'd love to hear about your experience.

A little WIP Wednesday Warmup with Spagetty today. With apologies and homage to my beloved Veer (RIP) Serif cap I wore probably 20 years ago 🤓

🚀 Penpot 2.16 release Alegría Geral is here! ⚡ WebGL rendering (beta) for faster performance on heavy files ✨ Design Tokens directly in the Design panel 🤝 Community-driven improvements across the platform 🛠️ Dozens of UX enhancements and bug fixes community.penpot.app/t/penpot-2-1...

I’ve always had too many ideas and find it hard to focus on the most important ones. Now, with AI and building processes, I can finally start relaxing by turning my scattered chaotic thoughts into structured documented finished projects.

i dunno, google search seems good to me

I ordered and received this absolutely amazing book. Can’t express how much I genuinely love it. The pdf version is great too (saves book bending). One issue though. It’s a big one. The A to Z of images on the cover. Z is doing my head in. That’s not Zelda!! 😖 @bitmapbooks.com

So my midlife crisis is going well as I dive into more #LEGO crossing over with my love of #retro #gaming

To all the #UX peeps looking to figure out a path forward through a time of deep career ambiguity: This is a thread of five things I'm doing for senior and staff designers in the next few months. All are online. Some are free, some are paid.

Saturday vibes. #retrogaming #coffee

I have been diving into AI coding, and whilst it's great for some tasks, 'vibe coding' just doesn’t cut it. Knowing and understanding code is key, and honestly, I miss getting stuck into the real hands-on development process. It has its place but as a tool not an all-in-one solution.

Sorting out some business bits and noticed that Companies House uses #Matomo analytics. Good to see #GovUK using an #opensource solution. 👏🏼

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.
