Gave up on Ubuntu, but I run CachyOS (Arch-based) as a daily driver now. I ended up keeping a small Windows partition for playing EA FC 25 and my DAW. I’m sure I could get it all to work, but for now I am content with my setup.
Everything I want/need is on Steam or AUR 🤩

Taking the leap to daily drive Linux. Let’s see how hard it is to setup Steam, a DAW, and video editing tools 🫣

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.
Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

After playing Mario Kart World with a buddy of mine, I can confirm this game is worth $80 for the soundtrack ALONE. Some of the best music in gaming.
Like holy crap they made the Dolphin Shoals sax solo even BETTER (1:30 in): www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDZi...

Marvel Tōkon looks amazing. ArcSys alternating between original IP and licensed IP has been successful so far but I am loving seeing stuff like this

An old iOS app I'm fixing up is so broken that if I remove an unused `.h` file from the bridging header, I get DOZENS of cascading errors across the whole project. The entire app relied on (what I thought was) an unused library to override `ViewController` and `UIApplication` 😭

Yo @backloggd.com guy 👋 can you make the app a PWA so that when I click "Add to Home Screen" it makes the app full screen? Just like the bare minimum service worker so iOS does it's thing. I know that making actual mobile apps is on the roadmap, but this is my pet peeve stopping me from using it 😭

Walmart thought I was a bot.
Target didn’t like Apple Pay, PayPal, or my credit card.
The Best Buy app crashed when I was no longer in line.
I lost the Switch 2 lotto 😭

Unironically, the answer to this question for me and probably a good 15% of men my age, is Goku.

It’s frustrating how locked down Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft are for games. Like there’s so much slop on the game stores and I’m here like “can I make a porting studio. Here’s previous games I’ve made and previous experience working on cross platform tools.”

Emilia Perez is the most disappointing movie since that time I watched Birdman on a plane thinking it was a superhero movie

In 2025 I want to post more and do more things just to do them. Less doomscrolling! So here’s a janky cover of “ASAHINAGU” by “Mass of the Frementing Dregs.”

After being sick for basically two months straight, I finally had the energy to do my first 3D print! I’m SHOCKED it was so easy

Marvel Rivals right now is giving me Overwatch 2016 vibes. Definitely was NOT expecting it to be this fun!

The eternal struggle with social media 😔. I wanna talk about video games, 3D printing, soccer, and music but like most of those things don’t overlap very much
The one thing Facebook has gotten right is groups.
I'd *love* to see a groups-like feature in BlueSky so I can nerd out on non-tech stuff without veering my account too far "off brand."
Almost like topic-specific skeets only visible to folks also in that stream / timeline.

Recently got an Ayn Odin2 Mini and I’m loving it! While I like the Steam Deck, I want something a little more pocketable for traveling.
Slightly wishing I got the pro (12GB vs 8GB of RAM) but I’ve had no problems with any games yet. It’s also got that amazing Vita look and feel 🤩

I’m looking at getting into 3D printing, any recommendations from the general community?
Looking at the Bambu P1S but I’d love to hear more options 🙂

I’d love the ability in the #BlueSky iOS app to block a user from the a post. Right now if I click the “…” on a post, I can’t block a user until I go to their account and block them.
Sometimes a post can be that bad that I just never want to see them again lol
