Steam Deck gets a new low-power screen-off downloads mode
Probably the single most requested Steam Deck feature since release is now in Beta, allowing you to get your downloads going with the screen off.

Out today, the latest Tyrant Philosophers piece - book 3.5 in the series is a novella length offering about the life of Angilly, who we met in Days of Shattered Faith. You don’t need to have read that (or any of them) to read this.
Lives of Bitter Rain by @aptshadow.bsky.social is out today!

A novella in the Tyrant Philosophers series, this book takes a deep dive into the character of Angilly and her past, and further explores the empire's reach, and the costs of living inside it...

Another likely casualty of the UK Online Safety Act - Imgur has blocked the UK.

That’s going to be a lot of broken images across the web for UK viewers on many sites.

A video on the hate campaign against Ms. Rachel for being pro-Palestinian children, but really a video about right-wing attacks on children's early education, but really a video about the importance of emotional literacy. Fantastic watch

Just a reminder: you shouldn't be angry or annoyed at the sites adding age verification. Be annoyed at the governments forcing it. Like the UK, with the atrocious and overreaching Online Safety Act.

Not gaming news but an important subject to cover anyway since it's something that affects me and GamingOnLinux directly, as well as all of you who regularly use a search engine. The OpenWebSearch might be one way to save us all.

Controversial opinion: #Andor good

So now there's lots of Reform councillors?
Definitely not going to fight like rats in a sack, or turn out to be fruitcakes.
Almost certainly.

The Mrs misspoke when talking about #Andor, and said Endor. We now have our pitch for Disney: Endor, an Ewok soap opera.

Theme tune, just singing Endor to the neighbours theme.

Even though my ear book is currently an @aptshadow.bsky.social book, and my eye book is currently an @aptshadow.bsky.social book.. I still have the feeling he's producing books faster than I'm consuming them
