Absolutely incredible game (and subsequent win) last night for my #ParisBasketball team away at Olympiacos Piraeus in the #Euroleague. 🏀
This marks the 10th win in a row, and improves the record to 11-3, sitting at the top of the standing in our rookie season in the Euroleague.

My local football club @redstarfc.bsky.social has officially removed itself from Twitter and is one of the first football clubs to do so.
A question for my web browser nerds… Who’s abandoned Arc and made it back to Safari?
Thoughts? Pros & Cons?

📚 I met my friend @JamesMayes.bsky.social about a dozen years ago at a local chapter of TEDx in Brighton, where I used to reside during my university studies and the early stages of my career. We quickly connected due to our shared heavy social media usage and mutual attraction towards good food & drinks, good people, and a passion for technology. Since then, we’ve been friends, and I’m grateful to have him as both a friend and a mentor in my professional life.Setting up my #NFL playoff picks @nflfrance 🏈
Incredible Kith collab with Batman / Warner Bros. dropping tomorrow!
Too many great pieces to choose from as a streetwear aficionado and comic book nerd…
Wish me luck for tomorrow!

Gruber, about meeting Dr Oz (soon-to-be head of Medicare/Medicaid Services)
(…) a brilliant mind in the field of thoracic surgery, and yet dumb as a rock in everyday human interaction. I spent the first few minutes with him wondering if I should introduce myself. I spent the last few glad I hadn’t.

Another post inspired by @Manton, as I continue to read my way through my subscribed feeds: I’m Tibz on most socials, @tibz.blog on Bluesky, and @tibz@micro.blog on Mastodon / @iTibz on Threads. These are all managed by Micro.blog. “Are you getting it? These are not three separate accounts… This is one place to post. And we’re calling it a blog.” 🤪 I’ve been loving the idea of Micro.Blog since its inception, but over the past few years, it’s really become a super interesting, powerful, and simple way for me to manage my personal online presence!Followed @manton’s instructions and was able to set up my Bluesky account via Micro.blog (no longer tibz.bluesky.social but fully mapping to @Tibz.blog 😄
Either way: https://tibz.blog/bluesky also redirects directly to my Bluesky account anyways
Deactivated my Twitter over the weekend. Platform has changed a lot over the past 10 years or so — been using it since 2008-2009 and made a lot of Online-to-Offline/IRL friends there, but these days are long gone.
Via this personal blog hosted via micro.blog, you’ll be able to find me on Threads & Bluesky.
Fuck all your empathy, I want your fury 🎵
Hell of a line, Mike. 🎶
Can’t make this shit up 🤣
I mean don’t get me wrong this asshole (and his affiliates) has blood on his hands, but a decade ago if you had come up with this headline, woah!
Something’s to look forward tod to with extreme excitement: the new trailer for the final installment of the #MissionImpossible saga has dropped!
🎶 📚 Finished reading “Walking Disaster” a few days ago, the autobiography/memoir by Sum 41 founder Deryck Whibley. As a huge Sum 41 and pop punk fan, this was great and revealed a lot of things I had never heard of before. Highly recommend it for likeminded fans! #BookThreads
Damn you all to Hell!
Everyone wish a happy birthday to @adders :)
Happy #AppleIntelligence release day! Can’t wait to dive in later…

Getting ready to say goodbye to Foursquare, an app I’ve used almost daily since its earlier form back in 2009 between my time studying and working and living in the UK, then in San Francisco, Paris, and my native French Riviera. Back then I used to check-in to places I visited from the mobile browser of my Nokia blackberry knockoff (E63) (2009-2011), then an Android phone (2011-2013), and finally from the dedicated iPhone apps (2013+).🏀 Ma séléction du All Star Game LNB 2024 pour notre belle Betclic Élite — sans surprise, Allez @ParisBasketball #ASG2024
🎶 Well… this is just over a year away, but bound to be a lot of fun! @Offspring with @SimplePlan as the opening act 💪👨🎤🤘🎸🔥
🎶 Added my concerts to the @ACMomento Music Beta and I gotta say this one was possibly the most “you just had to be there” moment!
🎶 Turns out the great Vinyl market drought was an error. Here’s Discogs with the explainer:
You’ve likely felt the panic this week: Vinyl sales are reportedly down by (a somewhat ironic) 33.3%, marking the first decline in 17 years. Inflation and industry greed are to blame. But these headlines didn’t paint the entire picture.
[…] Discogs contacted Chris Muratore, director of partnerships at Luminate, who confirmed that the reported data is incorrect. Vinyl sales are actually up 6.2 percent. Billboard has since added language to their “Market Watch” report, clearing up the error.

Rethinking my RSS and Blogs consumption and giving the new #Reeder a try…
Curious to see how I leverage the podcasts, youtube channels, and social media feeds…
🎶 “The Fray” released a new album last week and I was wondering why it sounded so different. Turns out, the lead singer is no longer in the band and owns a record store now… #TheFrayIsBack #HowToSaveALife
🏈 Holy shit Derrick Henry really picked his moment to turn on the boosters: 3mn left in Overtime! #RavensFlock #RavensAtBengals

Both have a feel that I like in equal measure… need to play with it some more

The Problem As a sports fan following different teams/leagues/sports, keeping track of “what game is on today?” or “I have some free time on Sunday, is there anything good on?” has been a STRUGGLE these past few years. Usually, there are existing apps you can use, mostly for ⚽️. Or Sports Media apps (like L’Equipe here in France, or The Athletic, or ESPN) etc. But these aren’t great for the purpose of knowing - What is on?Saturday, September 28, 2024 →
⚾️ Postseason @Orioles outfit, LFG!
So I just upgraded to the #iPhone16 Plus (from an iPhone 11) and I am LOVING the Dynamic Island for small glances at context-specificfic stuff.
I.e. flight updates or Uber ETAs
