First use of Umbraco v17: updating the Umbraco + Astro workshop Adam Prendergast and I delivered over the summer! Having initially built the project on v15 it's been great to keep the project with the latest versions of Umbraco, Astro and .NET! #umbraco #astro github.com/jacksorjacks...

Simogo Legacy Collection launches tomorrow with full Steam Deck compatibility. We couldn’t get a Deck Verified review and we don't know what exactly qualifies to get tested by Valve, but we are guessing more interest might help.

🚨 SCOOP: Toyota and Aston Martin secretly lobbied a Conservative cabinet minister to weaken Britain’s climate policy. We only know this because Democracy for Sale won a two-year legal fight to force the government to hand over the documents. democracyforsale.substack.com/p/victory-we...

Video games are good. @inkle.co are very good at making them.
inkle@inkle.co · 11mo agoWe don't know. What we do know is the wiring diagram works. We built it, virtually, in @godotengine.org. We fed it scans of the books we found. And the books are very, very strange. The "game" that resulted is also strange. We're hoping people can make sense of it for us.
This is a great event for any London-based Umbraco devs! Paul does wonders for the community and a charity hackathon is an inspired idea

Yes, it really helps, but knowing the curfew (so you can get the train home) and sensible bar prices (looking at you, O2 venues) are more important.
