Twitch is about to nuke about 90% of my stream VODs in order of least watched. Knew this day would arrive..

Nintendo just announced they're giving gold points the axe from the end of March. What this means: - No more "5% cashback" on digital purchases - No more using gold points to buy a cheap game to zero a gift card balance from a different region, which is necessary to switch region back.

Re-watching The Handmaid's Tale to prep for the final season. Probably the best world-building I've seen, how pieces of the dystopian horrorshow are revealed every episode, how the characters change and adapt to the world around them. It's an incredibly oppressive show to bear witness to.

Severance has been cool so far, reminds me I've been part of a corporate nightmare for almost 68 quarters and that it's probably killing me from the inside the more I remain part of it, but at the same time it's a necessity to survive an independent lifestyle.

Scaling back online activity for a while. Sleeping pattern is all over the place, unexplained critical I.T. issues lasting for hours wreaking havoc at work, and a list of other things just piling up. Need to fix a lot of things.

A picture I uploaded on X was mistaken for being "created by Grok", which is cool, but do you know what else is cool? The prompt that "Grok" thinks was used to create the image and that shows a button to "recreate" my image using that prompt. See for yourself: x.com/SteeScribble...

Having an issue with latest YT Music update where the music stutters when using just Bluetooth earphones. Bluetooth speakers, casting and internal speakers are fine. Seems like a codec thing because I rolled back to the previous version of the app, and there was no issue.

You don't need Netflix. Cancel your account. Do it.

Rift of the Necrodancer is out and looks like this. The rhythm patterns are incredible. youtu.be/W_UGHAyUxBc?...

Fit3 arrived. Some impressions: + The wrist band is way more secure and lighter + Album art and queue with music player + Breathing guide + Battery charges very fast + Calculator built in - A lot of ugly watch faces - Very short USB-C proprietary charger cable - Still not keen on its design

Recently learned that Casio released some new watches that have the classic interface, but have built in Bluetooth, lap timing+history and step tracking, citing battery life as "up to two years". As gimmicky as that is, I kinda want one lmao.

Thought my Gear Fit2 watch was snuffing it, dying after less than a day of usage, so I ordered the Fit3 . Then I tried a hard reset. The battery reading went from 60% to 2%, but after charging fully and using it for two days, it's down to about 41%, which is strange.

I wanna make stuff like this again. MInimal rhodes keys stuff. harmcannon.bandcamp.com/track/backse...

Have had the Retroid Pocket 5 for a month now, it's become my swiss-army knife for playing everything except PS3 games using both emulation + remote-play. Using Razer Remote Play for PC, PXPlay for PS4/5, XBPlay for X360/X1, and emulation for the rest. Imagine a wee PS3 remote play thing came in.

Listened to "The Bad Fire". Lovely music, lots of ferocity and emotion in equal parts but as an album, and unlike their previous releases, it has a rather chaotic flow about it and that's probably due to the variation of different instrumentation/use of vocals, or how each track starts/finishes.

Over on the @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social Discord we've been showing off and playing with our work-in-progress digital library (soon!), this is going to be such a great resource. I just asked it to show me every video game magazine in our collection in chronological order that says "Metroidvania."

Normal day of work yesterday despite the storm absolutely ravaging the town knocking out over 80,000 residental and business building's power across the county alone. My workplace could be the target of a nuclear warhead and it would still be open 🤣

If you're feeling crestfallen/saddened by recent events, log out of all social media and talk to family/friends in person, go for a walk, look outside the doomer echochamber at the life that you have for what it is, rather than expose yourself to the narratives generated by rich fiends and/or AI.

Easy Right Australia 'Colin McRae Rally' PlayStation

Going through the Colin MacRae Rally games in order. Only ever played the driving school portion of 1, which is pretty funny, especially when you're getting scolded at. The lack of distance calls by the co-driver does make night stages a lot more difficult.

Landman had a messy start for a few episodes, but once it balanced out and picked up the pace, it became a very well character driven story with action, emotion and laughs. It's a well written and casted show about ugly business that's never going away.

It's nice out here
