Gave Doom Eternal a try. It's my first major FPS title in decades.

Love the game, but it doesn't love me. 😭 Currently stuck trying to get past a major encounter but enjoying every moment of it.

Decided to learn the Vulkan API, which is something I've been putting off for far too long.

It's been an enjoyable experience so far but there's just so much boilerplate code before you get to the good stuff.

They weren't kidding when they said it was a lot of work.

A few weeks ago the pump on my AIO Cooler gave out.

I got a 360mm Corsair Nautilus as a replacement and it's been really lovely. PC is idling at 30C now which is surreal since I don't think I ever saw it go under 40 with the last cooler.

One more time with a feeling. the links should work now! I'm so sorry, I don't know why they were being strange before or why it went straight into creating the sale as a coupon when I don't recall toggling that option. But the sale should be live now!

his name was Sam Nordquist

he was a young trans man who was tortured and abused by 5 people for months until he eventually died

silencing any part of this story is absolute nazi bullshit

fuck the new york times and fuck anyone and everyone who is not emphatically supporting trans ppl rn
hello cis friends
this is what people mean by trans genocide

if a type of person does not officially exist, then any harm against them cannot be measured or reported

this headline change isn't even being caused by an executive order

it's simply the NYT editors deciding we don't deserve to exist

Governments who erase history are doing so because they intend to repeat it.

Each time a crime is committed against a people, it's easier to justify it if it seems like an aberration. It robs of us the solidarity we should have, knowing we suffered the same arbitrary cruelty.

Fuck that. We know.
I went to post about the National Japanese American Memorial in D.C., which is beautiful but usually missed by tourists. It is a deeply staggering admission of guilt and a warning to future Americans. I went to link to the inscriptions and-

Having a lot of fun with Project Zomboid Build 42 so far! It was the refresher I needed to get started with it again.

Can't wait for them to release a stable version with multiplayer.

First time playing Legacy again ever since Psychic Frog got banned. Maybe it's time to do some Delver again~

We'll see how this goes.

The biggest loser from the DeepSeek announcement is OpenAI. OpenAI has been bragging they’re close to AGI and charge $200/month to access their top model.

DeepSeek just gave equivalent tech away for free on GitHub.

Nvidia will still sell GPUs, OpenAI has been dealt a mortal blow.

I took a break and now I can't be bothered to reinstall the app. I need it to stay in contact with some folks but that's it.
Did anyone take that 1 week break from Instagram and then try to go back today and realize that Instagram is stupid?
