Didn't expect the mastodon CVE report/account would kinda end up being about platform diversity on the fediverse (TLDR: only mastodon really had the problem, which was huge)
Alert #autism folks. A friend is mentoring a founder going through a startup accelerator program. It’s for idea stage founders. He’s wanting to do customer discovery interviews to validate his idea, which is a mental health app to support adults with autism.

Well you’ve said it yourself, Microsoft are trying to remove that physical limitation to accessing a platform. But Microsoft knows what the market wants, people have been against exclusives for a long time and they want to remove that, I shouldn’t have to spend £300 to play a game when I have equipment already capable of playing a game Infront of me.
So being scared that Xbox is going to disappear is stupid, the consoles might, but Microsoft has been transforming Xbox into a platform for years, starting with the release of windows 7 when they introduced XboxLive for windows alongside halo 2. This has been a long term goal.

If Xbox disappears, so does your digital library and other purchases (some games you can buy once and get on PC as well, but last time I checked, they were few and far in between). I can see that being a concern for people that bought into the Xbox ecosystem for the last few gens.
Capacity and generation are two different things. Grid operators have capacity markets that ensure peak load can be met, and incude generations assets, demand response, energy efficiency, etc. Batteries absolutely coumt as capacity so long as they are managed to do so.
Further to my griping yesterday about my #ADHD medication woes; I’ve just contacted my local ADHD service.
Things I have learned:
As far as I can tell, two years after being referred to them (already diagnosed), I’m still not officially on their books.
The way I’ve been having to do things (make a GP appointment, wait two weeks for it, they send a letter, we wait two weeks for a reply, etc…) is just The Way To Do Things.
I’ve also learned that the service are changing their Advice & Guidance supplier on April 1st, so today is the last day any dosage increase requests can be submitted until then.
So I’ve just had to hastily arrange a phone appointment with a GP, who has said he’ll do his best to email them today, but that there may not be a secretary available to send the email.
