I haven't checked it in months, but the only reason that I've kept my Twitter account is cause parts of the world haven't switched over to Bluesky (yet). Lots of Japanese people and things are still on Twitter and so are a lotta people in the global south. Though Trump and Musk are trying to stamp out resistance in and by the global south. So that might not matter much longer. D:

Also, Mastodon sometimes makes me think of the "morphin' time" thing from Power Rangers. I suppose there's people that'd default to the metal band too. XD

Quoting: Phlebiacbut I suppose the comparison was for "advergames"
Yeah, my bad. Just a comparison of advergames. lol

The flash games that I remember playing the most back in the day were probably Snowcraft and the Candystand stuff. The Candystand games were just advergames, but at least they were fun. If advergames are gonna exist at all, better that they be non-toxic like those vs bullshit like America's Army. lol

AMD reveal the Ryzen 9850X3D, Ryzen AI 400 series and more Ryzen AI Max+

Their naming scheme is literally shit. A best anything processor should be a 9 series. Part of why I didn't bother going from a Ryzen 9 5900X to a Ryzen 7 5800X3D was that it still felt like a downgrade going from a 9 down to a 7. Though it wasn't worth the time, effort, or money to "upgrade" like that anyways.

The Legion Go with Bazzite is an excellent machine for gaming

Quoting: Stellathe install trouble sounds very similar to my own Bazzite experience with the ROG Ally X, the Media Checker would get stuck at 4.8% and error out, and I could not do anything after that because it refused to let me use the iso because it was supposedly 'corrupted'. This is actually a known bug in the Fedora install media that's been present since at least 2016 (!!!) and it really caught me off guard. I had to connect a physical keyboard to be able to select the second GRUB option, that would skip the media check. Because of course the D-PAD did not work in GRUB. But after that, it went smoothly without a hitch.

This has been fixed since, the new live isos do not use media check, avoiding this problem altogether.
The D-Pad not working in GRUB sounds stupidly annoying. It's a real shame that it's not mapped to the arrow keys at all.

Augmented Steam browser plugin added AI features from VaporLens

I just use the SteamDB plug-in. The Augmented Steam one just seemed like overkill to me. I get the ITAD e-mails. Though that's mainly for the free shit. lol

Bazzite Linux gets a spring cleaning update to end 2025

Summers for fishing, and for lounging around.
Fall is for raking... all the leaves off the ground.
Winter is for skating just like Torville and Dean.
But we all know that spring is the season to clean.

Spring cleaning, spring cleaning!
We deodorize and sanitize and harmonize too!
Spring cleaning, spring cleaning!
We're gonna make this town look all shiny and new!

Spring cleaning, I'll sweep off this mat!
Spring cleaning, I'll vacuum the cat!
Spring cleaning, where'd I get this dead rat?
You'll find a lot of stuff when your spring cleaning!

We got a lot of junk that we have just been dying to get rid of,
And there's so much garbage in this can that it's about to blow the lid off.

Spring cleaning, spring cleaning!
Our disinfecting prowess is second to none! K?
Spring cleaning, spring cleaning!
It's a sick disgusting job... sick disgusting job... sick disgusting job...
But it's gotta get done!
