This is my fun social media account, I will post a lot of video game stuff (mostly old or cloud gaming) and some work stuff.
If I post an image with no Alt text it is because the image is just there for decoration and doesn't provide any extra meaning to the toot.

US government considers protecting octopuses used in research
Prior to the pending rules, no invertebrates were subject to regulation.
Sorry about the political toot. But when the PM cancels #HS2 north of #Birmingham, dismissing it as “the ultimate example of the old consensus” what does he mean? That it’s old mentality thinking that we can build new large infrastructure projects? That the #UK is now a Post-Industrial-Revolution country and we will learn to regress to a pre-industrialisation state? What does he mean?
I also played with this #Filipino squad and my God, every time I play in Filipino servers!!! It is brutal. 🫡
The only other noteworthy item is that I'm the only person using controller 😀 it's not that well implemented but being on Steam Deck is all I can do...
Two #Farlight84 victories today. One with an all UK squad too! That's a first 😃 #gaming
And yeah, I seem to be totally addicted to a game that's not particularly original in any way.

For Halloween I'm going to be Arch Linux so I can scare Ubuntu users
I honestly don't understand how people car use controllers without aftermarket stick extensions/grips. #gaming

Mastodon is the only site where some user is guaranteed to gripe about a paywalled NYT article every time. Folks, ads are dead. Subscriptions are what feed our families. I give away a lot of free links. You can get free links with an email (regi-walk is not paywall, so read closely). Paywall is easy to get around with research. You do you. Just don’t reply with a complaint. It’s kind of rude. Read something else. It’s a big old internet.

@gpowerf @DopeGhoti To be clear, I don't hope for Google to expand ChromeOS. That would be a terrible choice for privacy. It's just, they invest in UX and this is key for mass success.
My personal vision is a mostly locked down ChromiumOS based system, with the ability to run containerized Linux apps but with focus on privacy and security. Just like GrapheneOS compared to stock Android. Mobile-grade security, desktop-grade ux. Wishful thinking.
Haters gonna hate.
