Got a pal (Trumad) to mirror all of Burger's collections of memories and thoughts she had on her youtube page, so those are in the collection and preserved now. You can really get the full Burger experience from them. I wish more people did these.

Turns out you can communicate across containers via 63-bits of available space in a shared lock you acquire on /proc/self/ns/time that all processes have access to.
No networking required. The post has a demo of a chat app communicating across unprivileged containers.

This is pretty much me 99% of the time, when a new physical, 3rd-party game is announced for the Switch 2
Seriously, do it right or just don't bother at all.

1990s alternative Lemming is my 15th #Amiga #cosplay.
Many have dressed up as Lemmings before, usually in groups, so I wanted to do something different with my costume. I combined 3 alt styles that were around in the early ‘90s: grunge, punk and goth.
