I’m playing Pokemon Moon right now and as annoying as the rotom can be I find the recap useful if maybe a little bit hand holdy.

It’d be great for forming D&D groups.

I wonder how well it’d run under WSL? It would be funny as shit to force the Windows Gamers (real Gamers only play MOBAs and eSports /s) to fuck around with compatibility layers like Linux users do.

I feel called out, “I use Bazzite btw” is literally a joke I made irl last week.

Some Bazzite users touch grass and talk to people IRL, surprising, I know.

I had the Island of Doctor Brain as a kid, I enjoyed it and was able to beat it at seven or eight years old but the puzzles might be a bit much for any younger kids (iirc there was a tower of hanoi puzzle that was an interesting challenge) and I’m guessing the first game, Castle of Dr Brain, was at a similar level.

Those were aimed at kids but even those might be too much of a challenge depending on the age of the kids in question. And we’re not even going to talk about how quickly I got stuck in Space Quest as an adult.

This is peak Lemmy, lol.

I used to have the game boy Zelda game, my little brother decided it would be funny to stuff it full of play doh. :(

My keys are attached to my chain wallet, and my chain wallet is attached to the pants I’m wearing for the next few days.

Thankfully I haven’t forgotten the pants yet.

Oh, that reminds me, I’ve got a milk crate full of old ham radio stuff. I should get my license and see if any of it still works…

There’s also FrogFind that’s a wrapper for DDG that’ll let you actually view (some of) those results on some ridiculous hardware.

Not to say Fort Wayne, and Indiana as a whole, don’t suck, but I suspect that’s a satire account.

IIRC vr is still a bit of a mess on Linux.

I had Racket as an intro class language but haven’t really gone beyond the beginner level (I also took another beginner class in Fortran, long story but I don’t hate Fortran, lol) but at that level I enjoyed it. How similar is it to Clojure and what’s my next steps to actually being competent-ish (and maybe employable) from here?

Space Cadet Pinball?

PSA someone ported it to Linux. There’s a Flatpack. You’re welcome.

… could you make a Linux bootable USB drive on a smartphone? Maybe Termux?

I got the “not prey” bit and the Predator movie franchise when I bought it (if the first thing I thought of was the other definition, I probably would have bought a different laptop), but I’d completely forgotten about Alienware, the Alien vs Predator angle is kinda funny.

Still, at some point you think they’d go for a rebrand, because you don’t want people to think about your line of gaming laptops and go “wait… yuck”.

I’ve got an old-ish Acer Predator and thankfully it doesn’t have quite that level of dogshit branding but I did have to go into the bios to disable the boot screen and obnoxiously loud boot up noise. I like the metal and the RGB isn’t that bad, but if I buy another gaming laptop it’s probably not going to be from the Predator line since that seems to be all NVIDIA and I use Linux now, lol. Also who the hell thought Predator was an appropriate name for any commercial product, it’s pretty yikes.

(Also my laptop has always been an RGB space heater but that seems to be a problem with gaming laptops in general).
