this is the nicest thing someone's said to me all day today

My first Metroid game was Metroid Prime, and I never really was into traditional metroidvanias until a friend bought me Timespinner and I played it in a randomizer. I've since played several metroidvanias, and today, I completed Super Metroid 100%. I get it now. Good game.

The GM Energy charging stations by EVgo have turned into my favorite charging network. Paired with Flying J/Pilot, it means we're always somewhere with predictable convenience and the stations are usually covered, which is very nice

I just scheduled a bucketlist vacation: riding the California Zephyr in autumn. I'm pretty excited.

Now that we've established how many people recommend Blue Prince, come watch my interview with its creator, Tonda Ros! No spoilers, just a nice high-level discussion of the game, inspirations, development, and some fun :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kX5...

This seems like a pretty cool game if you're into puzzles.

My at-home EV supply equipment wouldn't run at full speed and was throwing an indicator of overheating. After a while I started to become suspicious so I took it apart and checked it. The electrician I hired used 10 gauge wire with a 60A 240V breaker. It calls for 6 gauge. Fuck me, I guess.

Hate and bigotry have no place in a polite society. But until the day when everyone can collectively agree on that, it will at least have no place in my home. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

As a tenured professional in my field, the #1 thing I hate being told to do (usually with the air of finality and urgency) is something that I've already done.

I am legitimately thrilled.

So, uh, you can get a barely-used EV from Hertz for a bargain. For reference, this model is an Ultimate, and would have retailed for $60k a year ago. Shoutout to @techconnectify.bsky.social for making me confident enough to buy non-Tesla.

I dislike it when I see American or Confederate flags being flown off of trucks/SUVs. Fly the flag of the United Federation of Planets. That's the shit that will really get me fired up.

Kodiak Power Cakes are one of my new favorite desserts.

If Fujimi Kaido comes back to Forza Motorsport, I will pop off so hard

The world is not cleanly divided into perfect solutions and things not worth trying. Pursue incremental improvement. You'll inch closer to that perfect solution and learn something by trying.
