After several weeks of running CachyOS Linux I ended up switching back. It was a fine experience and it's in a decent feature complete state but there are still things that hold you back. However, if Windows goes beyond the point of no return it's finally to a place where I could daily drive it.

Linux Journey Week 1: I've been able to find or replace very application I use on a regular basis in Windows. The only last holdout is my iCloud account. I use iCloud for the convenience as a Macbook and iPhone user. We'll see where I land

Now that my new PC is nvidia free I finally took the plunge. It's been somewhat liberating to not be actively running Windows on any devices that I use for personal use. In the past I've tried it and only made it a few weeks at most without deal breaking issues. Let's see if this sticks this time.

I've lived long enough to see Pewdiepie go through a linuxbro phase like me. Don't know much about the guy but love to see anyone using a platform to share opening their horizons to alternatives.

Hurray for Youtube frying my account. I get to start from scratch

With all of the nastiness that surrounds us, we live in a world that produces incredible stories and art like Clair Obscur and Deltarune. We are able to come together and celebrate the most obscure and obsurd like Croc, Glover, and Neutopia...

...I think that's pretty rad. That gives me hope.

Really felt the love from all my friends at RPG Limit Break this year. Thanks for making this old so and so feel loved even though my health wouldn't allow me to attend. <3

You have to run out of the house and take nothing but a backpack with you for several weeks. What go-to gadgets are you taking with you?

Some of my recommended underrated gems for the Gameboy Color:
1. Metal Gear Solid
2. Crystalis
3. Resident Evil Gaiden
4. Mario Golf
5. Shantae

And Link's Awakening DX (and OG) still really holds up. The switch version is great in addition to it rather than in lieu of it.

As your resident Gameboy SuperFan, I'll start throwing out some of my favorite hidden gems still worth playing.

1. Donkey Kong Land 2
2. Donkey Kong '94
3. Gargoyle's Quest
4. Kirby Pinball
5. Castlevania 2
6. Kid Dracula
7. Mega Man V
8. Final Fantasy Legend 2
9. Metroid II
10. Kirby's Dream Land

Setting up TV Gaming PC with SteamOS: Installed OS
Setting up same with Windows: Installed stripped down version of Windows, set group policies to allow me to use it for gaming without being interrupted, installed several workarounds to make it work and dusted off old couch mini kb/mouse.

What the actual hell, youtube? Also how has this trash been viewed 1600 times

As an interesting experiment, I'm swapping to using my Speedrunning Youtube channel as my primary for viewing content and kicking the Youtube algorithm's view of what I want to the curb and starting fresh. Interested to see what new things I discover. Time to start subscribing!

Does asking rhetorical questions drive engagement?

I will be truly happy if Youtube's algorithm ever understands that when I click "Don't Recommend Channel" anytime Adam Conover's face appears before me that I TRULY don't want to see his face and will stop offering it to me.

Grown adults talking to other human beings IRL as if they are talking to a large chat audience is my kryptonite.

When someday I am forced to shed this mortal coil, I can only hope that my story will be brought to you by Raid Shadow legends

If I feel up to it this week I'm hoping to finish my perfect PS2 Slim build. It has Free Mcboot, a built-in MicroSD card slot for game storage, and has been meticulously refurbed. Equipped with a MemCardPro2 as well. Finishing touch will be an internal bluetooth module for power-on and play PS4 ctrl

Alright took me way too long, but I'll join the trend and start posting here for a while. It's feeling like old twitter to me already without as much BS
