You’ve got to love how actress Kelly Marie Tran, one of the most harassed people ever to be on the internet, still leapt up to defend trans people in a recent interview. No one would blame her for keeping her head down and shutting up forever but she will NOT and I admire her for it ⭐

So unfortunately I do not think I'm going to be able to stream putting together my DIY #SteamController #OpenSplitDeck due to only being able to spend a single day actually putting it all together. I can't fit the whole build into one stream and I need to be away from home for part of it.

I don't post about Wizwag much now because I don't want to spoil all the surprises or moments of delight. But I'm very happy with how things are coming along, and I wanted to show a teeny weeny peek at an area I like. 💙

If you think American citizens should be summarily executed by masked federal agents, you’re not a patriot. If you think the lawless goons loyal to our demented pedophile criminal president are greater than the people of Minnesota, you’re not a patriot. You’re a fucking Nazi.

NEW VIDEO! "Physical Media Is Just Really Cool, Okay?!" In a world of streaming, become a physical media enjoyer. NOW. YOU CANNOT DISOBEY. youtu.be/iMq6N2inVWY?... #vtuber #physicalmedia #vinyl

Add on to this: Use a password manager (i.e. Bitwarden) to store your passwords, make them complex and long as hell, and use it to store any encryption keys/backup codes for those chat apps. If you have the technical know-how, you can even host your own chat server for Element that you 100% control

STFU in public forums. Use encrypted chats to stay in contact with people. Do not trust any big tech company. Download Signal, Element, or SimpleX chat. Only talk on those, assume all your text are being read by anyone and everyone. STOP TRUSTING COMPANIES. FUCK THE SYSTEM.

I regret to inform you the head of Instagram quietly announced last month that videos on the platform he runs can no longer be trusted to be real and it is only a matter of time before that becomes the immediate authoritarian response to any atrocity www.theverge.com/news/852124/...

I'm gonna be building a DIY Steam Controller called #OpenSplitDeck soon thanks to a buddy at work splitting the cost of materials with me! Now the question is just how the hell do I stream the process? I don't have a proper overhead setup nor the room to make one.

Ok I think I have found the biggest load of bullshit RNG in a Trails game so far. #TrailsofColdSteel2, Trial Chest, Alisa and Emma. Its a 9 v 2 fight with every attack apparently having a chance to confuse. I've retried the fight 7 times now and I have yet to have a single turn before dying.

I am the fucker who will order a pizza with anchovies or pineapple. Fear me.

great point by bestie @teastainss.bsky.social in this article on banning AI at comic-con: with corporations, politicians, institutions: ALWAYS BE ANNOYING. At best they gravitate towards doing nothing and continue to do nothing until a fire is lit under their asses www.404media.co/comic-con-ba...

NGL I think I enjoyed the Crossbell Arc of Trails more than the Librel Arc...

So that sore throat blew up into being full-on sick. Awesome. I love this.

Woke up with a sore throat, yaaaayyyy.... No stream sadly

#stopKOSS #savespeech While niether bill has moved, this will be the endgoal of KOSA. To censor "harmful content" for everyone, including kids. Coupled w/ a section 230 repeal/sunset, amd we wouldnt be able to talk about these things. EVER Call your reps. Daily if you can. Tell them to vote NO

So uh... I just woke up... ...I was supposed to stream 2 hours ago

Jesus fucking christ why does signing up for a #VPS feel like a blood contract with a demon?!?! They rejects EVERYTHING I put in, name phone numbers, emails, credit cards, all of it is appaeently "fake" (none of it is fake, I use them regularly) #Oracle #Linode #Server

I cannot reitterate it enough, I ABSOLUTELY DESPISE GEN AI Image boards are completely useless now, ITS ALL AI SLOP, EVERYTHING IS FUCKING AI! I liked finging cool anime art from cool artists for wallpapers, but now NOTHING BUT AI!! FUCK HUMAN CREATIVITY, CONSUME OUR SLOP AND PAY US MONEY

Anyone know how much it costs to host a #VPS for a #Matrix #homeserver with all the bells and whistles (Voice/video calls included)? Or how powerful of a PC would I need to host it locally? Matrix is the closest we've got to a self hosted Discord so I'd like to know my options.

Downloaded the #Element #Matrix client on my phone again. Really hoping Discord doesn't enshittify anymore since it's still miles easier to manage a Discord server BUT I'm ready to swap if need be You can join my Matrix space from my website rogueren.net

TweetXer still works: github.com/lucahammer/t... Last time I had to fix something, was months ago. I enjoy reading posts from people who are successfully using it: bsky.app/search?q=twe...

I FIGURED OUT HOW TO DO AUTO CAPTIONS IN DAVINCI AND I HAVE NEVER FELT MORE POWERFUL ANYWAY HERE'S A VIDEO OF ME YAPPING ABOUT MAGIC THE GATHERING AND ADHD PLS ENJOY :3 #VTUBER #MTG #ADHD

Three days off isn't enough for my job, can I just get a week's worth of pay for 2 days of work instead? 😩

Discord wants to know how you feel about AI. Go tell them: discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Local officials should act now and put a stop to ICE surveillance by cancelling contracts with vendors like Flock and banning the use of facial recognition and other forms of biometric surveillance either through executive action or city ordinance.

Aaaaaand uninstalling Shadowverse! And I just got physical decks too, dammit

Its been raining for 3 days now and I'm tempted to order delivery because I'm so sick of driving in the rain, even though it jacks up the price of everything...

Playing some "We have TWEWY at home" AKA #REYNATIS on #Linux The game so far is... Weird... But I kinda like it? #JRPG #ActionRPG #Nomura #KingdomHearts #TWEWY youtube.com/live/z59e97W... twitch.tv/itsrogueren

How has the world already gone to shit in 2026 IT HASN'T EVEN BEEN A WEEK YET??!

I have restocked my supply of Dr Pepper Zero and Cherry Dr Pepper Zero. I don't a problem.

Oh hell yeah! I run the Windows build in an old Proton version due to the issues I've had with the Linux version, and overhaul would be awesome

Move to Linux. Don't keep using something that has managed to create negative respect for you and your computer, take back control of YOUR device.

This could actually be nice for ppl who want these online games. It's not like there's any way to play them without an onlime server anyway.

Microslop jerking on that ai cock so hard. NO ONE GIVES A SHIT ABOUT YOUR COSLOP.

Hey everyone! I just released a new update! NOW WITH MACOS SUPPORT! Also a new feature: Whitelist! So only the users in the whitelist can trigger the TTS! #VtuberAssets #twitch #VtuberES #ENVtuber

I'm really hoping either JSAUX or eXtremerate will make custom shells for the new Steam Controller. I would KILL for a clear one.
