i took this picture from my bed.

Last bit of wiring work for these new push buttons and we'll be up and running again with the upgraded control panel. Little sad it came with -2 button slots but if it bothers me enough, I'll get it sorted. Otherwise, so stoked to get this wrapped up for awhile. #RetroModding #Arcade1up

{marketing meeting} VALVE CEO: Hmm let's see... does anyone here know who's addicted to Valve products and buys weird hardware at the drop of a hat? GAY INTERN: {quietly} Sir… I have to teach you a term right now… CEO: Is it "Six Sigma"? Because I'm way ahead of you INTERN: No, no… it's… "T4T"…

Ok I'm coming back for a bit, we'll see how this goes.

I cannot recommend you enough to install the Wikipedia app on your devices and use it like you would any search engine. Nowadays they even have tabs so you can open many articles at once. And, if you can, please donate to the foundation. It has survived the internet enshittification that way.

Gonna speed run getting banned here if I say what I wanna say about Doug Ford.

I'm still alive, just enjoying not being on social media. I've gotten into fighting games recently and bought my first fight stick. It's been a ton of fun. I also finished watching Season 1 & 2 of Peacemaker. I really enjoyed the first season and the first half of the second. Ok, see you later!

For the first time in history renewable energy sources are now generating more power than coal worldwide. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

it remains really funny that this site was spun up to be a crypto/rationalist platform and then old time weird twitter people and others started moving over here in spring 2023 and ever since management has been mad they're successful but not in the way they wanted

Turns out, 6 months was optimistic

Over 2 million people across Italy have rallied in more than 100 cities for a one-day general strike.

Watching Jay, I realize I am simply exhausted by folks in positions of leadership who are driven to distraction by critique. If you can't function with critique and pushback, a leadership position is not for you. Leadership REQUIRES you to absorb and process the critique of stakeholders.

Glasgow Gender Clinic now has a waiting time of 224 years. The average across the UK is now 25 years. This segregated system isn’t working and is wasting millions. The NHS has been told time and again - informed consent now.

his commitment to the scream was impressive

This is what we should be using Bluesky for

NORTHERNLION IS THE ONLY STREAMER WHO WILL PUMP YOUR DICK HONESTLY

I see some progressive folks hesitate because we respect people can speak for themselves. they know their experiences, we don't. but one issue is people who need to hear things won't listen or register it said by people they dismiss. learn to talk about it with guys who only listen to people like us

Subscription services fucking suck. Buy shit and keep it on a local server or physical. Support Indie dev games more. GOG is good for DRM-free games and the high seas for shit you can't find anywhere else. Go pick up Megabonk, Cloverpit and Wander Stars.

I'm enjoying not having the app on my phone. I gotta sit down at my computer like god intended if I wanna fry my brain on the internet. Also god damn Peacemaker is so fucking good.

Gonna uninstall the app off my phone. Best of luck friends, I'll be over here playing games and watching shit.

If you like Vampire Survivors check out Megabonk.

Megabonk is fun.

Hit level 50 in Borderlands 4 last night. Gonna be farming for those perfectly rolled legendaries for my build for a while I think.

I'm really enjoying wearing a wristwatch.

I'm not big on sports but watching the women's rugby worldcup reminded me of how much I enjoy watching rugby.

Been watching the Women's Rugby worldcup final between England and Canada. England is demolishing Canada 🫣

I'm sick and tired of living through the sharp decline of modern civilization.

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

see how settled science suddenly gets turned into something unclear as soon as conservatives make it a political issue? this has happened on dozens of issues.

Not gonna lie, I was kinda expecting something like this. My pc has a 4070 gpu and a 9800X3D cpu and I can get over 120fps at 1080 high settings if I run the game with upscaling and frame gen enabled. Without it I struggle to maintain 60fps on LOW settings. How is a Switch 2 supposed to run it?

Having a good time playing through the Metroid games but took a quick break to check out Borderlands 4. 25 hours in and I'm having a very good time, I think it might be my new favourite BL game.

Nice post you got there, it'd be a shame if I deliberately missed your point so I could be tedious about it
