Apologies folks, but no stream today; I'm taking some time to remember a friend who passed last year.

Sending a lot of care to everyone, and planning on seeing you tomorrow.

The US has transformed from a (sorta) functioning democracy into a poster regime, a rogue troll state, fueled by internet clout. And the abduction of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro is likely just the beginning.

Given everything happening right now, I updated this article with options for weather apps, web forms, and translation services — along with some tweaks to existing categories.

I hope it helps your transition off US tech!
Silicon Valley’s alliance with Donald Trump was a mask off moment and showed the world we can’t depend on US tech companies.

For the past few months, I’ve been trying to get off US tech and I put together a guide so you find alternatives too. I hope you find it helpful!
Getting off US tech: a guide
I’m in the process of dropping US tech services. Here’s how I did it, and options you should consider.

Spending some time today playing the wonderful narrative @despelote.game . Missed this one earlier this year, and after a community recommendation had to cover it before swinging into 2026.

Here is one I created in the past, with a lot of great people in it!

Wander has a fantastic YouTube channel, showing off a ton of smaller indie, especially rogue-likes and incrementals.

And he has a Steam Curator page, so you can see his recs directly in Steam! (though I should poke him to add his YT videos directly)

Teasing the cover for the final solo journaling game in the trilogy, Sample. Set during Y2K, it’s about a one-hit-wonder DJ who’s trying to overcome a creative block before his set during the ball drop.
