#Denver server admin clinging to life after COVID, trying to beat AI to making the penultimate novel about our times. Looking to stop doing piecemeal consulting work in IT infrastructure and go W2 again.

#ROGAlly is my daily driver, #SteamDeck is also damn good but I just can't do 800p.

So, uh #linux people, can you tell me what in the blue fuck happened to the installer on #fedora?

I honestly wonder where the mistaken idea that a gravity assist adds velocity originally came from. The most it can do is change your vector/adjust your orbit.

Hey microsoft, instead of calling Windows Subsystem for a failure because nobody wants to use the Amazon app store give us a chance for official Google Play Store support?

I just installed the magisk hack version that makes it actually useful and I'm going to cry when you take that away next year.

So, uh, we gotta talk about your new "install wizard" that's not a wizard, doesn't give any options before failing and forcing you to clear the errors by actually making the choices you didn't put into a wizard workflow.

Oh, any why I the blue fuck is the continue button on the top left? Are you the community or something?

When was the last time you rewatched Stargate SG-1?

Did I just pay $450 for a new phone because I can't find a case that I like for my old one?

Maybe... Maybe I did.

Less than five minutes in to Rebel Moon.

Oh come on Disney. 34 minute episode with 8 minutes of content? #ahsoka is yawnworthy.

@WagesOf@gamepad.club avatar

Oh noes! YouTube is blocking my player for blocking ads!

taps on revanced manager

Better!

I'll start paying for #YouTube when they give me enough control over discoverability to stop half my feed from being videos I've already watched and the other half being videos I've already clicked "not interested" twenty times.

Each state and the federal gov should have their own activitypub instance.

Biden joining threads is not potus joining mastodon. It's potus supporting a corporate spike jamming open the door for embrace extend extinguish.

It's going to be next to impossible for a mastodon community of any size to not expose their users to the flood of shit from threads just to support this one press release bot.

It should be @potus threads should be federating with that, not Biden forcing us to threads🤦

How did people ever survive season 7 of #walkingdead without fast-forward?

@WagesOf@gamepad.club avatar

#scavengersreign is about 60% "wow this is great #scifi" and 40% "OMG, that was totally idiotic" without much in between.

I ain't mad, but oof the whiplash.

So you're starting a new series and it has a prequel. Is it assumed that the prequel should be read after the first couple of books, or do you go for it first?

What would modern electric cars look like if we didn't have decades of design inertia to deal with?

Just a flat battery with corner wheels like a red wagon?

It's so hilarious to me that the second worst #startrek theme song is from #Enterprise S1.

Then they somehow made it worse and clinched the top spot when the "punched it up" and got number one worst too! 🤣

No delonghi, I don't want a link to a goddamned YouTube video to tell me how to descale my espresso machine.

I want a three step text answer. JFC why is this so hard?

Remember back in the way before time when you could search for a phone number and you'd find the homepage of the business it was published on and not 100,000 reverse lookup links for services that don't actually tell you who's number it is?

I miss those days.

Booting Microsoft completely due to #AI bullshit moves.

#fedora, buddy, why do I download a 4gb iso for install then have to do 4gb of updates on first boot?

There's gotta be a more efficient way to do this.

It feels dirty but #today I'm thinking of trying edge to replace Firefox since Firefox refuses to cleanly rotate on a tablet screen.

I need ublock, a torrent link extension, bypasspaywalls and a password manager.

So far all of that's available.

Still, the stink of internet exploder permeates it's children.

#today there's going to hundreds of broken shovel handles in Denver. The snow, so far, is so wet and heavy that it might as well be mashed potatoes.

Take your time and pace yourself. This crap is sticky and stubborn!

I'm embarking on a full immersion Japanese experiment.

No forks, only chopsticks for a week.

I hope I don't starve.
