  Something that mildly annoys me about Satisfactory...Is that I can't change my character's gender. I actually loathe that. No Man's Sky allows for character customization and it doesn't mess with the story in the slightest. Need to look into why Coffee Stain Studios chose to lock the gender of the character (I think that I forgot about this). Sadly, I lost interest in the game now. Can't envision myself as a woman in a video game, so I won't play...

  So, once again, my PC is having issues with booting. I will either have to update the BIOS or keep saving for the mini-PC this is so frustrating. LMAO.

  Trialed Fields of Mistria on my Laptop and it runs fine. Just gotta see if there are unhinged slowdown during achievements, friendship gains, or doing too much of one thing in the rain. First grocery shopping is in order. Those issues with Fields of Mistria are due to my desktop being ready to die. As this little indie game isn't that demanding. A bios update isn't going to fix that. I'm going to try on my next days off as I was busy playing games and recovering data. 😅...

  To ease my dread, I played Fields of Mistria on my laptop before bed...As I checked out the inside of my Desktop. As the graphics card wasn't registering. Looked at the BIOS as well. Seems like there was a hardware failure and it can't be saved easily. It would take a lot of effort to save (and money) which means I need to take the damn thing apart and store the parts appropriately until I could do that. Ugh. What a time for this shit to happen, I can salvage the Ryzen 7, potent...

  Love Not Malcolm for having so much moral backbone and a quirky sense of humor to boot. I had done my part a long time ago: Had sent a request for EA to delete my data, deleted my account, and stopped playing the games completely months ago. As a bonus action, I hid all the ne'er do well companies on Steam so I don't see them on there. As I plan to be on Steam more so (once I can get my grubby mitts on a Steam Machine). https://youtu.be/jd63rGAo3lY #NotMalcom #BoycottEA #Fuc...

  RE: https://retrofed.com/c/ghazi/p/1350470/swedish-mullvad-ceo-donates-to-swedish-party-that-believes-in-remigration Ugh, apparently the founder of Mullvad VPN and Browser, Daniel Berntsson donated Five million kroner to a White Nationalist party in Sweden called, "Örebropartiet". Apparently they are going to run in a Swedish Election 2026 because of the significant donation in 2025, by Daniel. As they weren't a viable racist party that were peddling remigration (basically ethni...

  OMG This is not a drill, 1.22.0 of Vintage Story has dropped! This is going to interfere with my Artix Linux configuration journey because...I have been craving this latest release for months now. It adds so many new features like reworked Tool Smithing, Fishing, Water Wheels (a new form of mechanical power). Ugh, I wish I could be absent from work today to dive deep into it! However, I'll be a very patient man and wait till after my shift is done and I get home to play. https://www....

  Walking and vibing, thinking about the next steps with my weekend goals. Like redoing my whole music collection (sorting through digital and re-adding songs from CDs). I'll be trying to build a physically available collection for my music as digital is less appealing to me after my experiences with that medium. Thanks Apple and Google for being the cunts ya are. ROFL If possible, I'll get these CDs locally, pouring money into the community first. Then looking online for CDs. L...

  Wow so Bitwarden CLI got hacked for about 90 minutes yesterday, through a very novel method. This malicious actor has hatred for LLMs (same Queen or King). So they were using a worm introduced by the novel method to target keys associated with LLMs and other valuable keys. Very scary and sophisticated. The normal version of Bitwarden wasn't affected, and of course the malicious altered version was depreciated so it can't spread. Still fascinating in a horrifying way. https:/...

  Ageless Linux is a civil disobedience project of the best kind...I love that they are literally spitting in the face of California and other places that have the AUDACITY to try to gatekeep computer/internet access. Using hostile and draconian measures to siphon personal information from computer users in order to verify their identity (these are down the pipeline, as legislation is going to cause those to become an issue in the long term. Surveillance is always the first step, then comes the...

  Checking in on Vintage Story for 1.22 and it seems like the 1.22.10 Release Candidate is still fixing more issues (which is good). I'll continue to wait until 1.22 stable is released to generate a brand new world! That Italian villa has been on my mind for a while now, been sketching different iterations of it for a while now. Just outlines and how tall and wide it would be. I've also planned to build the thing no more than 55 blocks away from a rudimentary wilderness homestea...

  Tonight, after work, I plan on learning more C. As I have been doing relatively well since hopping back on the wagon. On my main PC, I've decided that any learning will happen in Sway, and KDE is for fun! Distinctions matter, as it will give me a rudimentary schedule and routine to follow is important. Structure and consistency, will make a learning experience easier over time.

  After much thought about Artix Linux, I found a plasma graphical install with runit. I can install that on my laptop this weekend, as I will need hands on experience with Artix before deciding if it is main Mr. Computo ready or not. The Laptop on the Side, he is my tester of Linux distros. I cannot wait to initiate this plan. I am sad that it will be a temporary parting from Solus OS because that custom distro is so fucking good. I might put that on Mr. Computo, once I see what direction open...

  #WritersCoffeeClub 18: Does your writing ever get away from you? (plot bunnies…?) In rough drafting, of course it does, goes wild and crazy. A lot of ideas are thrown at the wall...As rough drafts tend to be like this for me, a plan is only established once I've decided it is time for editing. As I've been changing up my writing style and it has helped me quite a bit. I do try to have at least a small outline that highlights some important events to touch upon. Other than that...

  Its going to be a long day at work; I have strings of code in my head, and I need to watch the new hire. He's kind, but, damn I just saw a food safety violation in progress that I stopped. 😬 We are all new once, but it puts me on edge.

  Gonna back up my shit and get started on the Artix Linux adventure! Don't have much on that Laptop anyway... Really the only other set-up thing which is required is to turn off secure boot because, that seems to cause issues for most Linux distros. I've already used Balena Etcher to create the bootable drive. #Artix_linux #tonight

  I am currently attempting to use SwayWM, and it is going pretty well...I just need to locate the config file so I can make some changes because the 24-hr clock is driving me up the wall! I did find that win+d opened a program launcher (which sees all the apps I have installed). So far, I am not having the best of luck...I think that I can succeed at doing something as basic as changing a .config file (he says, deeply uncertain and distractedly). #SwayWM #Linux

  Hmm, I think that I will take a field trip in Dying Light: The Beast and snag some weapons that I missed on my first run! I have saved a list of things to do, and will be doing throughout this mini-field trip around the game world. Can't wait to get everything that I managed to miss in my hurry to beat the game as fast as possible! #DyingLightTheBeast #gaming

  #PennedPossibilities⁩ 969 — Do your stories have happy endings? Sometimes, other times they are futile struggles that end up being fairly grim endings. If it is going to be happy, the story is often a hard fought battle for a happy outcome. As life isn't always fun or ideal, if the characters can make the best choices...Perhaps they won't have to give up too much to get that better ending! Stories related to love tend to have the happier outcomes, because, I feel gay dudes ne...

  Okay, back to my Dying Light: The Beast guided tour...As I finished the story of the game, it's time to see some sights that I missed! #Gaming

  My Dying Light: The Beast tourist trip is going really well...I almost have the completed Rogue Armor Set (this will allow me to finally deal with some of those Volatile Hives that are hanging about). It's fun to follow some guides, and do the work to reach the locations that have secrets in them! I often generally just follow directions to the place and figure out the area myself. Often setting out during the start of the day to give myself the most time to succeed on one of these gu...

  Ugh, its gonna be one of those days at work. 😬 To relax after work, I'll write!

  About 4 or 5 utility trucks had a flash mob outside of my apartment building; they were inspecting a utility pole making use of at least two trucks with two people in each basket. It was like a dance of inspectors going like, "This is a nice pole!" after great contemplation and maneuvering around every facet of the pole in question. The "nice pole" part is purely part of my fanciful brain being 1000% silly. This is why I like being a night owl, as I can notic...

  Oh how disgusting, T-Mobile is testing an NVIDIA TX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPU attached to one of their cell towers to create something called, "Physical AI". They are also working with Nokia on attempting to execute this nightmare...Apparently, it's supposed to supercharge LLM systems, by increasing responsiveness and make them generally faster at performing tasks. I really don't see the appeal because it would allow this malignant tumor given birt...
