Why wouldn’t I? We are living in interesting times.

And some few weeks ago a memo leaked where Satya Nadella assured that “whatever business decision Microsoft considers, security always comes first”.

It definitely has to be summer. Around that time I feel very social.

Sex workers are having a bad time these days.

If life gives you lemons, have a lemon party.

If Microsoft stuck with what it already does, it would be better. They already have cloud streaming technology which makes playing games on their ecosystem possible on any screen. Having a separate handheld console would complicate things. I just don’t see the appeal.

It’s pretty concerning, as health authorities in the USA don’t seem to do enough to prevent the situation from getting worse. The dairy industry doesn’t want its profits to be touched, and several politicians seem to be more concerned about the economic impacts. Various far-right groups basically created the framework for their anti-science actions with the COVID pandemic and various anti-vaxx groups that existed before it. Therefore they will double down in their efforts to resist any kinds of mitigation efforts because of “freedom” and “do not comply”. Hell, many of them are buying raw milk in hopes of “gaining immunity” and of course “owning the libs”!

It could be said that I am already preparing. When at work, doing groceries, hitting the gym and so on, I am wearing an FFP2 mask (equivalent to N95). This is exceptional here in Finland, where many people have drunk the Kool-Aid of “COVID being over” fed by the THL, our equivalent to your CDC. The only people I have seen masking actively are people collecting bottles from streets and parks! The THL has done similar blunders about public health messaging and “studies”.

I am not losing my night’s sleep because of this, but who knows what happens in the coming months?

Amen, Sopuli wouldn’t federate with such instance either. It would introduce too much problems. Bad idea.

In case of 4chan it’s obviously other anonymous imageboards. There doesn’t seem to functionality in Lemmy that would allow for posting without accounts.

This Tumblr page listing nostalgic designs, they are also on Mastodon.

Holy hell.

Really good, I’d say. My tech support job has gone great and I have plenty of spare time to code my own projects. Sopuli is also doing great, the performance problems have been gone and there hasn’t any need to adjust settings. And the weather is getting warmer!

For occasional chatting with Bing and translation help with DeepL.

What could possibly go wrong?

The power of open source compels you!

Since 2016 this has become more difficult.

Oh, Ferngully was that animation about rainforests I watched as a kid.

Tomb Raider Anniversary was dirt-cheap on Steam so I bought it. As a remake it feels a whole lot smoother to play compared to the 1996 original, no tank controls. I also installed ReShade and a couple of texture upscale mods to make it more pleasant-looking, with add-on enhanced ReShade I could also use ray-traced global illumination.

I played BattleBit Remastered for the first time since August and I really need to hone my skills.

I also several demos on Steam, News Tower really got me hooked with its gameplay. The full game should release on Early Access in a couple days, might as well buy it.
