Feels like it's going to take forever to get caught up on One Piece. I'm only about 270 episodes deep! 😅

Finally getting some time to play through Wizordum and having a blast. Definitely reminiscent of those good old first person games from the 90s. Tons of fun!

I loved Head Lopper, and that Double Dragon 2 inspired cover has been hooked. This is going to be great!

Newest Town Portal is good. Feels a little subdued compared to their previous stuff but still brings that sweet mathy post-metal sound

Spent the last day getting my desktop setup with a new layout. Installed Borders and Yabai to tile/style my windows. Hid the dock (I always use spotlight anyways). Switched to Alacritty for my terminal, and then used tokyo neon theme for just about everything. Feeling productive with this setup!

Glad to see that schismtracker works well in Omarchy.
And still amazed that I remember all the commands from using screamtracker 30 years ago 😅

I'm loving the look and feel of Omarchy. Everything's kind of in the same neon tokyo theme that I normally use for everything, so I feel right at home.

Not gonna lie, but the new Steam Machine does look pretty tight. And those controllers look nice.

I see Omarchy is the new hotness in the distro world. Going to try to install it on my old macbook air and see how it goes. Otherwise, I'll just probably put Mate on it :)

on a whim, I decided to try and see if claude could help build a drum machine and I'm kinda blown away. I used astro + react for the ui, and tone.js for the sounds. we built a poly-rhythmic drum machine and it actually works pretty well!

Also one of my favorite records of the last 30 years!

loving zen browser. it's so smart and sleek!

Boy I suck at ARC raiders but it's still fun

One of the smartest features of Zen browser is having play controls in the side tab, and it controls your music regardless of what tab you're currently on.

New Yellow Eyes album is good, too. It picks up were Rare Field Ceiling left off, and delivers their signature sound.

Trying out Zen browser as my new daily and I'm digging it so far. I like the minimal browser setup and that I can dock the sidebar on the right hand side of the window.

New MD album is a lot different from previous releases. It's a lot more subdued and chill, and surprisingly uplifting. I would say that it sits in line with late 90s/early 2000s idm, reminiscent of early warp or even planet mu. I love it.
