Endless Sky is great

I absolutely love the Steam Link. I don’t use it quite as much as I did before I picked up my Steam Deck, but it’s the perfect way to play games on the TV with my wife when we aren’t a console household. They also still ship updates for it despite not actually manufacturing it anymore. Really incredible little box.

This is an incredible article! I very much relate to the disillusionment of doing something for the sake of sales, and also find myself on a winding journey to do something that has meaning without really knowing what that is or should be. Best of luck to him!

This is awesome. Looks like a painting

For Wumbo?

This looks like something someone would make in Rollercoaster Tycoon

Sneaky Hank

I use a hybrid. If I’m typing with both hands, and I need to be speedy I’ll typically use regular typing, but if I’m just causally typing stuff out or only have one hand I’ll use swipe. I like having the option

Most of my friends jumped off Reddit and onto Kbin/Lemmy for the week of the blackout. I think most of them are using some hybrid of Lemmy/Reddit now. I’m the only person I know that moved exclusively to Kbin, but that’s okay. It fills the same hole that reddit did, I don’t much care if other people I know do or do not join tbh

I recently gave up my 6t for a Pixel7 and it was the worst decision I’d made in awhile. I miss it so much, but the newer OP phones just aren’t any good from what I’ve been reading.

Ah man that’s a huge bummer. Thanks for checking in on that. Hopefully it’ll get there!

I’ve done some other xemu emulation for Deck and over all it’s pretty solid. Minor stuttering in Ninja Gaiden Black, but it’s completely playable

It doesn’t work for everything though. Having a self hosted account that wasn’t tied to any specific platform or instance would ideally allow you to have access to PeerTube and BookWyrm as well as Mastodon and Kbin, without having to worry about your instance shuttering and all of your posts and comments disappearing. I’ve also been really stewing on this idea, I think it’s a probable future state of the Fediverse

This is especially relevant for things like lightbulbs, cell phones, cars, etc, which are constructed in such a way that they will only last a certain amount of time, because the other alternative would be a product that never failed, and therefore only needed to be purchased once. True technological advancement would be the perfection of technology, but capitalism would never allow that because it wouldn’t be profitable in the long term

If a screen name is an identifier doesn’t that make literally every social website or forum a potential breach? That seems a bit harsh

Wow this is a great read! I definitely see promise for the described system in the direction we are heading

Skipping rocks. If I’m near a body of water and there’s a flat stone anywhere near me in 100% skipping that thing. This never gets old
