I am also into video games, home recording music, guitars, sci-fi, the concept of Scotland getting an independence vote again, and nachos. I like nachos.
My kid and I are replaying #hollowKnight ahead of possibly buying #Silksong soon.

They have blown me away with this epic gif they made!

Thought experiment:

A tool called "timechains" which lets you RDP onto a server existing in the year 2010. It will run continuously with minimum down time for patching etc until it was retired in 2020.

What are you doing through your timechains server?

Was just gifted a collection of tea cups like Picard used in TNG. I wouldn't have bought them but by science I love them!

Been playing half life 2 again for a couple of hours while gobbling up the new commentary track explaining so many of the choices.

What an absolute work of genius this game is. Still very playable and fascinating commentary.

20 years since Half Life 2 was released. It just had a huge update and now it includes a commentary track I can learn more about the game through.

Rise and shine Mr Freeman!
