Why is there not a bobby futuristic-sounding 80s pop song about “Mars In Stereo”? This is something that should already exist.

More please! Luckily my family hasn’t noticed that I’m staring at my iPad with my eyes crossed.

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

I was surprised at how well the PS5 controller just...worked! I thought about getting one of the 8BitDo controllers, but they were the same price as a PS5 controller...so I just got one of those.

if activitypub actually becomes a big thing, using mastodon "lists" will become more important to curate your feed.

imagine if you had old twitter (pre-algorithmic timeline) and a webcomic, mixed into 1 feed. you would basically just have old twitter. the posts would just drown it out.

@Simon Ashcroft I don't think this is an Australian photo. For one thing the warning sign is on the wrong side of the road, for another we don't have many chihuahuas here.

Aha - you have specialised local knowledge.

Please apologise on my behalf to your local owls.

Google are now processing Stadia Hardware refunds gamingonlinux.com/2022/12/goog… #Google #Stadia #CloudGaming
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

Have they said whether they'll patch the controllers to have bluetooth support? It's pretty irresponsible that they aren't unlocking that feature, as otherwise those controllers will just all becoming trash once the service is gone.
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

I bought the bundle with a controller and chromecast for around $25 about a year ago, simply because it was cheaper than buying just the chromecast. Never touched stadia, and now I basically got a USB controller and a 4k chromecast for free.
I'm curious what their losses will look like come end of fiscal year.



Sad and important to think about.

Run Linux inside TF2 and then run a Windows VM inside that Linux instance. Super meta.

@John Hummel We've been getting companies in the US hiring people in Australia for computing work, including AI development.
in reply to Muse

Thanks, @Muse. It's tempting. But my kind of AI is weird, much like this architecture. Maybe I would fit in there.

Everytime I hear / see someone mentioning hive I think of an old social media platform called "hyves" from the early 2010s. Those were the good times. But then facebook

@Seb_ I think of the Hive crypto currency which was also entirely based around social media

Oh brother, nvidia-340 is borked on some of the systems I tried installing it on, and there's a launchpad PPA for a legacy version of that driver, but I bet it's bugged.

As the @NASA_Orion spacecraft prepares for the journey back to Earth, we reflect on all the women who led the Artemis I mission to the Moon.

Through #Artemis, we will see the first woman and first person of color walk on the lunar surface.

in reply to NASA

NASA, how about publicizing and honoring all the women working on this program? Inspire some girls to go into STEM.


Have you guys ever went a little overboard?

It was supposed to just Illustrate in B&W the first scene of the novel, but then I liked the composition, "I'll just add the solid colors", "I'll just shade it a bit.

I'm actually proud of how it turned out, even though you can see I wasn't sweating too much on detailing the background. That cop car looks a bit f***up.

I might turn it into the cover page later.
