My silliness about gaming, grief, fatherhood, non-monogamy, politics, sex work, Detroit, food, Linux, and other nerdery 🏳️‍🌈
Hahaha I read this post before I saw who posted it and I was like "this has to be a Detroiter" 🤣

It's a ton of fun I ended up with Garuda Linux on my desktop. I'm in love with it

The holdouts are going to cave eventually, especially since Valve is all-in on Linux. The shores are bright and sunny here, we'll keep the lights on for you when you're ready!

I am now a full-time Linux user, and I can trace that line of dumping Windows directly to this incredibly frustrating, unbelievably insipid experience.

I'm a native Detroiter so getting caught up in the Red Wings' meteoric rise to fame in the 1996-1997 era was essentially impossible. I got HOOKED. It's truly a fantastic sport, and I am generally not at all interested in sports.

I was so reluctant to do it but I finally got so tired of Microsoft I jumped ship to Linux. It's been a blast, and I feel like my computer is mine again. There've been snags but they're actually fun and satisfying to fix.

That's awesome! Congrats!

Exodus Borealis. I play every island at least once a year and build insane game breaking defensive machines. Even the game creator told me "it was never meant to go this far" 🤣

Banished was a close second for me

Fortunately, most of the worst toxicity has been dealt with; Blizzard no longer tolerates that shit, and people catch bans with a quickness. It's just... very, very dumb now.
