My partner runs Windows, I run two separate distros not by choice but by driver support. I was messing around on her computer the other day, had to pull something up. I was startled by just how sluggish the entire experience was. Mind you, one of the distros I run is a destroyer of ram. I couldn’t believe it. I felt like I was hanging out on a computer with fifty viruses and the pop-ups were coming for me.

I think they’re doing what they have to do to be honest. I don’t like that they fired everyone. I don’t like what they’ve done to their publishing. I am not particularly interested in buying their things anymore. I think a part of that is because they started so whimsically. Some of my favorite games of all time have come from the bundles. Things have changed, but every fudgin’ thing in this world has gone up. So clearly, even with a skeleton crew (that’s what they have to be running, right?) they more than likely were going to raise the price. Because they gotta do that capitalist thing.

I don’t like it. I have never liked it. I think this is more of a “is what it is” thing. For a hobby, it gives you a smattering of games for typically the price of one, on sale. It’s freakin’ stupid as hey-sauce it’s a subscription. Let alone that you need to jumpy through an insane amount of hoops to get your games/unsubscribe. My gal grabbed the one with The Thaumaturge recently, so I saw the lot first hand.

I think they really need to re-evaluate their next few steps however, or they will basically be nullified by whatever is next. If there is a what’s next, in gaming bundles. Not sure. I just tend to buy what I like, and what I like is weird.

I did not use Twitter before. So I am not using Mastadon now. Because I don’t give a ploop. I liked forums. Lemmy-ish…adjacent spaces are like forums. I like that. I wasn’t aware that DMs are not private, so strange. But yes, many people have been harassed. When I was on Reddit, I turned off any means of communication not public. Here, I wouldn’t to be honest.

It’s an older mindset, what you’re referencing. But many Americans did actually have quite the problem with people they fought against. Some still do. Also, there can be many facets to ones identity. She may be ethnically one thing, but culturally she isn’t. Everyone does fucked up shit during wartime, it’s why we don’t want wartime. This is true.

The last comment was weird, but I also have lived it so much that it’s just…ugh.

*Look at how many Americans feel about Arabs.

There is a complex relationship between many Asians. Many move to Japan for a better life quality. The Japanese have done some atrocious things in the past. To be honest with you, she’s allowed to feel however she wants about anything. Many multi-ethnic people have severe displacement. You can look one way, be cultured another, and have several other things. I bet you fifty bucks she does a shitton of cute stuff that is tied to her actual culture.

I am ethnically Japanese, but I am culturally American. Among other things. There are bits and pieces that have dripped through, because my family has sustained its own culture.

You will never understand the hatred, it’s not worth trying. Also stop being a dick on the internet. And probably real life. But more so on the internet. People’s sufferings are not something that need to equate to be worthy of sympathy (at minimum).

I went back and looked and I think old boy just uses big chunka paragraphs. School sucks, you do you. I just figured I’d tell you I just can’t read it. Uppercase is good stuff though, you had good things to say and I thought it was cute and you’re very intelligent for a youngun’. You’ll do well, just keep fostering your voice, skills and more of that purposeful consumerism. I’d like to read more about your phone, so I hope you share it some time.

Also horror sucks, I just love it. Don’t worry about it.

I’ve got a buddy who texts like this. It’s madness, but I love him and texts are short. I didn’t realize the ability to write like this long form. It’s just a style, but it makes it hard as hey for me to actually get my brain to not just error out and quit is all. This isn’t a blog for anyone though, it’s for you so you do you!

VS Codium is great! When I start a project, I always make a notes.txt to gather myself. As for P&P, the only way I have gotten myself to write on it is to get a small enough guy that I can keep it with me in one of my more common sitting spaces. Google is a creep, but Keep is simple. I’ve known a ton of people in the past who get a tape recorder and keep their notes on that. There’s a FOSS voice recorder on F-Droid called Fossify Voice Recorder. I am not sure if that’s what you want however.

Yeah, no, of course! I was still loving it anyways. I actually thought about it again before I went to bed. No lie! It’s a good one!

I would have thought this was from an old children’s book until I saw the linky.

Linux -> Text Editor Offline -> Pen & Paper

Apostrophe might work? Not sure.

Yes, actually! I love Knifepoint Horror, but I can’t ever read any of the books because the tell-tale signs of readability weren’t there and it breaks my brain. I can read all caps fine though.

I love monospace, I hate lower-case. Which is a shame, because it looks terribly interesting.

Oh your typing is driving me mad. I can’t do it, my man. I just can’t.

Yes!

Good friends are an emotional investment, many friends is networking.

The ultimate test!

Jay, I love your style. I think this could work as a less is more type situation. I kind of had to do a double take to take in what was going on. Maybe as if the Feducci were the only idiots to think blind-folding ones self makes someone disappear. Then everyone is unamused with their antics. Not sure, it’s cute though!

Hehehehehehehe!

This is the music the robots will listen to when they take over.
