@gamingonlinux Yahtzee's Starstruck Vagabond also comes out this week. Similar concept of Stardew in Space but less wholesome.

@sjvn Whatever nostalgic need I have for Winamp I can get from Audacious and a Winamp skin.

@gamingonlinux Kudos to Microsoft. Ten years after the acquisition, Java edition is still a thing and is pretty much equal to Bedrock in terms of gameplay features. There was always the worry they would drop it.

@popey Pinned tabs and tab groups have replaced bookmarks for me.

Sometimes I'll click the star in the Firefox URL bar to help the autocomplete suggest the right url of something obscure later, but I rarely go to the bookmark menu.

@isthereanydeal I have unfortunately relapsed with my Cookie Clicker addiction. Works remarkably well on the Steam Deck.

A time travelling robot is never late. Nor it is early. It arrives precisely when it means to! This week is the second great roguelike by Subset Games: Into the Breach! A bug-punching, timeline jumping, city saving tactics puzzler sure to tickle that brain of yours.

We are taking listener requests for an upcoming episode as well! Reply below with suggestions!

@grogpod recently discovered the podcast and am popping back to listen to old episodes.

I first got into the genre with DoomRL because I was a fan of Doom so I'd like to hear what you guys think of it and the legally distinct successor Jupiter Hell.

@aukondk@mastodon.social avatar

Finally restored my #iPod 5th gen, inspired by @killyourfm

Went all black with the case. New screen and battery and a 64GB CF card for storage. Dumped my #Bandcamp collection as FLACs on there to run through #Rockbox

Featured artist @JoeRess

#Music #Floss

Back of restored iPod with black metal case.

Just FYI, with Threads becoming part of the Fediverse, both this account and the one on Threads (https://www.threads.net/@gaming0nlinux) will stick.

I think giving people the option to directly follow on either platform is the best bet. Options are nice right?

@gamingonlinux I heard a rumour that you can buy the games individually if you use the steamdb browser extension and add to cart from the steamdb page. YMMV.

Popular deck-building game #Balatro is written in LÖVE.

On a whim I opened the exe file as a zip and all the lua code is in there so you can run it with the #linux native #love2d binary. Not only that but you can modify it easily. I replaced the spades with sprites from Win95 Solitaire. Looks so cool I gotta do the rest. Hopefully official mod support will come.

My notifications are drowning in this crap and I don't know how to stop it. I've blocked and reported so many of these, but they keep coming from different instances.

Help?

aukondk,
@aukondk@mastodon.social avatar

@killyourfm I feel left out. I think I've only ever had a couple of bits of spam on Masto and at the time I thought "yeah, we're a real social platform now!"

Perhaps I should run my own instance and be the one in charge of blocking it all. The instance I'm on is perhaps too good.

@timelordiroh and when we see Ace pick up the same book in Remembrance, re-imagined with a nice embossed title, fans complained that it wasn't the same.

@geerlingguy after many years of not owning any physical media, last Xmas we started buying vinyl albums, both new and second hand.

One album my daughter got, Arctic Monkeys, had a voucher to download drm-less mp3, flacs and wavs of the album. Some record labels get it.
