Hopping back into #Hytale this afternoon, and I think I might try to make a proper home base. My current place was put together in an ad-hoc way, just by adding things as I got them, with the house itself being the tiny shelter I made on day 1. #gaming

Sometimes I really miss junk food. But I don't miss being 15kg fatter and on a path toward death, so there's that.

Someone made a new website, in both languages, of Canada's historic places :) https://heritageguide.ca/ 'When Stephen Taylor read a CBC Nova Scotia story about the imminent closure of Parks Canada's Canadian Register of Historic Places website, he knew he had to act. The register is a […]

People in a position to do anything about what's happening are loathe to admit what's happening because if they do then it suddenly means they are responsible for letting it happen. So, better to pretend it's not happening or it's not a big deal.

I really cannot stress this enough. When I visited France, I visited a building where I read an entry in a log book where a Nazi recorded my great-grandmother's death in the camps. The name of this building was the "Musée de la Résistance et de la *Déportation*". It was not the "museum of the […]

Okay, settled in for more #gaming with #KingdomsOfAmalur and realized I never introduced my character. It's a slight variation on the theme (as you do) because you can't play as an orc in this game. My usual character has adapted to game restrictions before, and […] [Original post on mstdn.ca]

thinking about how there's a true solution to the trolley problem and union workers were the ones to point it out

I'm not sure an upgrade downtime is a great idea so soon after a multi-day downtime due to trouble, but I guess you gotta schedule things when you can.

Sometimes it feels like engaging is a mistake.

Finally caught up on the latest episode of #fallout and boy does that ending not strike the whimsical chord it might have in other days.

Vibe-codingナウ Hey, anybody else remember when ナウ was a thing?

It astonishes me how some people are just genuinely incurious. Like, when they encounter something they don't understand...they just continue to not understand, rather than trying to figure it out. Baffling. Completely baffling.

Huh, wonder if @Chanclatrix and @csacaness know about this https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/heated-rivalry-team-canada-fleece-9.7064421

Happy AI Day everyone. 😐

I don't often share random crap, but I just had the situation where Geforce Experience app tried to get me to update to NVIDIA App as usual...but the Not Now button was no longer available. Basically forcing you to update to the new bullshit. However, if you close that and do the steps in this […]

Man this is peak industrial deisgn. I'm almost tempted to get into minidiscs just to have an excuse to play around with one of those.

My company's doing a new thing now where once a month (starting tomorrow) it'll be AI Day, and you're not allowed to do anything that doesn't involve AI in some way. Even meetings about things unrelated to AI need to be rescheduled to another day.

Oh dang, Wonder Man series released already? Thought it was further off. Guess I'd better re-enable my Disney+ sub.

Come on kids… we need to get on the bus to ~Aptio Setup Utility~

Why am I not surprised this was in #alberta ? #shitpost #politics #canada#Alberta#shitpostttps://www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/article/wrestler-dressed-as-ice-agent-at-edmonton-match-apologizes/

It's true that anti-ICE sentiment is spilling over into normally non-political areas and causing turbulence. I had to leave a shaving subreddit because the mods declared they were going to ban any and all political commentary, and we know what "neutrality" means. I wasn't the only person who […]

Another day started, time to see what fresh horrors have been unleashed upon the world while I slept.

Had trouble getting ahold of episodes of QI this season, but got a bunch all at once and churned through them tonight. It's just such a nice relaxing show to watch.

Not the largest power bill I've ever gotten but definitely up in the top ranks this month.

Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning is currently on sale on #steam for like 1300 yen. I never played it back in the day, but I see it consistently on lists of great RPGs most people missed. My hands are a bit full with #gaming right now but I am sorely tempted...

The hermit cave is chilly this morning, may need to crank the heat a bit.

Been sitting here waiting for the water for my tea, when I just realized I never turned the kettle on.

Getting git and aws shit working nicely in WSL using existing windows settings was not nearly as difficult as I was expecting. Honestly, the hardest part of setting up a WSL environment was getting the terminal to display windows filenames from the regular filesystem.

The number of microaggressions you have to just brush off daily when working in a Japanese company as a non-Japanese...😩

"Anyone who refers to republicans as "colleagues" or uses the word "bipartisan" is an enemy at this juncture."

Outlook is super slow this morning...

Working for ICE is indefensible. Doesn't matter if you work a logistics desk job, or you're the front door receptionist, or the goddamn janitor. Indefensible. People need to be made aware of that, by anyone and everyone who is around them.

We aren't even asking why ICE is even at these protests full of white ICU nurses and moms in vans. Like, why are they there? Looking for a Mexican drug gang in a suburban roundabout? Finding the secret foreign terror hiding in the trunk of a minivan? They aren't even pretending to do […]

I wish lakanto weren't so expensive. Even though I only use it for tea and coffee, I can only justify getting the small packs that run out so quickly.

They're not gonna stop. In fact, the more they get away with it consequence-free, the more they're gonna be emboldened to do it freely.

It’s hypocrisy all the way down. #law #uspol #2ndamendment #guns

I haven't been to twitch in awhile, but poking around right now I really wish there were some kind of check box you could select for "don't show my vtubers". Why does it seem like any game/category I look at, it's 65% big titty vtubers now?

Oh, #Hytale update 2 dropped. These guys are serious about keeping the content flowing after early access release, no joke. Not sure I have time for much #gaming#hytaleat this hour though...

Okay, finished episode 10 of #criticalrole campaign 4. I am so far behind, still 2 episodes. I didn't catch up at all over the holidays. And worse, ep 10 is the only one that didn't have a Cooldown, so nothing more to watch unless I wanna start the next episode...which doesn't seem wise at 1am.

Check out this amazing resource @dansup created! I had no idea how many communities were hosted in Canada. Well done, everyone! Now, we need to grow. #canada #mastoadmin https://madeincanada.social/

Maybe my biggest complaint about Instagram as a user experience is that you'll often see something just in passing and refresh or move on and then realize you actually wanted to look at that thing from before, but you'll refresh and refresh and then search and scan and hunt around...and you will […]
