My Rimworld colony in a nutshell.

People just going about their business living their lives as they have for many years…

Silicon Valley: Hey fuck you. Also I came up with a dumb nickname for you.

The tree of freedom must periodically be watered with the blood of tyrants.

I really like using the PopShell extension on Gnome. I’m hoping it doesn’t die out when Pop moves to their new Cosmic DE. So far I still prefer Gnome.

Your package is set to arrive between the hours of 0 and -2,147,483,647.

Microsoft has weird rules with OEMs about selling the same hardware without a Windows license. This might be a way around it.

Exactly. Explaining to a computer what a photo of a dog looks like is super hard. Every rule you can come up with has exceptions or edge cases. But if you show it millions of dog pictures and millions of not-dog pictures it can do a pretty decent job of figuring it out when given a new image it hasn’t seen before.

Roll it up like a scroll and just put the whole thing in my mouth.

I’m kind of baffled how frequently Bard refuses to help at all. I can copy and paste the same exact prompt into ChatGPT and get a fairly good response. But fairly regularly Bard will start to give a reply and then just stop halfway through and be like “I can’t help you.”

Not sure what is going on there.

Chungus.

The traffic is hell. It’s just one car but it’s stuck in a bumper-to-bumper superposition for all possible points on the road simultaneously.

I sort of feel like it’s correctly-rated. It’s a serviceable third person cover shooter with an interesting setting and some great visuals. The reveal of “you’re the real monster here” has a good amount of impact but it’s hard to totally land that message when the game offers no alternative.

The main problem was that all that was a bit of a pleasant surprise. The good parts of the game were sort of hidden behind the disguise of a generic military shooter. The box art couldn’t possibly be more boring. It sold very poorly and gained momentum later for being actually good.

It’s a bummer to see it leave Steam knowing that less access to it will mean less people get to check it out.

I just went to check how many I have since I need a new spool of Prusa Orange PETG for printing printer parts.

I have 15 Prusameters. 💸

The narrative is something that can really only be experienced once. It’s a game I really enjoyed but I haven’t had an urge to play it again.

AI can write greentexts that make sense but they are boring.

Both at the same time.

I support all forms of corporate disobedience that create fleeting moments of joy.

I sell Dwemer oil and Dwemer oil accessories.

Hypnospace Outlaw is hilarious and perfectly captures the weirdness of the early Internet.

Also don’t forget to talk to your kids about the dangers of shonking.

RE4 was definitely a pivot toward a more action based game than its predecessors. It’s probably my favorite but I still consider the RE2 remake a better game overall. Maybe a perfect game honestly.
