@flwwhtrbt I tried the demo for InZoi and was pleasantly surprised with how robust the in-game design tools were, but then remembered I have absolutely no creativity and kinda gave up on it.

I'd say it'll really shake up the Sims community!

@killyourfm weirdly I've only encountered it on Lemmy.

I wonder if my self-hosted masto instance is just too small to be targeted by that spam?

I *finally* got my little Gitea instance going again!

v1.23.4 tweaked ACME stuff without listing it in the changelogs.

*shakes fist in general direction of updates*

@fedicat Ooh, which color did you go with? The white/purple variant looks really nice!

I'm basically waiting for my Corsair K95 Platinum to die before I buy another keyboard, which may take some time.

The Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4 remake isn't gonna have the THPS4 career.

What even is the point?
Hype completely gone.

@flwwhtrbt Don't forget about #Steam #NextFest - I've pulled like 12 different demos this week to check out already!

#Fumes is a pretty decent Mad Max car combat experience that I stumbled across while browsing, it's definitely getting the (languish in my) wishlist treatment!

#DescendersNext replaced mountain biking with snowboarding for the sequel, and it was alright, but maybe not capable of topping something like SSX or Steep any time soon in my eyes.

@thelinuxEXP had one wisdom tooth pulled a week ago, it has not been a fun week 🦷💥

All the best for a speedy recovery!

:oof:

Forgot about my Humble Bundle Choice sub until right now, when I got an email from PayPal thanking me for my purchase.

It's quite possibly the least hype looking month of Choice I've ever seen.

I don't know what changed, but my self-hosted Gitea instance has wrecked itself.

It seems to be an issue somewhere with Cloudflare DNS, because LetsEncrypt keeps trying to dial a random cloudflare (nameserver?) IP instead of the actual public IP I've set on the A record...

I can't figure it out, and I can't find anyone having the same issue either.
This was all just working like 3 days ago.

Bollocks.

@flwwhtrbt I believe @killyourfm was floating a similar retro games club idea recently too, although I'm not sure if it was mainly targeting retro hardware?

Could be worth checking out either way!

Just watched the season finale of Dexter: Original Sin, pretty decent prequel to the original show.

The casting (outside of Christian Slater as Harry) was really faithful to the original cast, and while it wasn't groundbreaking it done a great job of letting us see things that were talked about in the original.

I'm just wondering if they'll make another season of the prequel, or if this was a one-time deal. It feels like they left enough space in the timeline to go either way.

@pyratebeard Ooh, that is an absolutely killer lineup! I'd say they'll probably pull out some surprises for the occasion too, congrats on the ticket!

@flwwhtrbt Alrighty!

I finally got all the achievements in Euro Truck Simulator 2! It's pretty chill, I'd throw on a podcast or vlog and drive along almost on autopilot while listening.

Re-playing Skyrim now - as much as people joke about it re-releasing on everything, it's still held up quite well as far as the gameplay goes.

Was thinking next game might be Spider-Man 2 (because I really loved SM1 and SM:Miles Morales) but reviews are not looking good... maybe time to try Death Stranding?

I'm not sure which was more annoying, having no power all day, or having power but no broadband all evening afterward.

Feck #StormÉowyn either way.

@padraig I didn't realize the red warning for Donegal doesn't start until 7am, it's been stormy enough already tonight... Just glad I charged my phone and steam deck 😂

Oh god, our planet is so fucked.

Getting the itch to swap from GNOME to KDE again to try it out... Maybe I'll plop Bazzite on my Steam Deck as a stopgap.

Happy Wrestle Kingdom, everyone!

My sleeping pattern is currently so messed up that this 7am start might actually be a good thing...

gonna fit in a quick nap now and hope I don't hibernate through the whole show.

#NJPW #WK19

@padraig While I can't comment on if Plex Pass is worth the money, I feel like all the features of Plex Pass are things Jellyfin can do for free with some manual config...

I noticed Reddit restored a bunch of my comments from years ago, and went to use PowerDeleteSuite to delete them... it didn't find anything to delete, so i tried manually, which appears to work... but refresh the page and they just reappear.

Great.
