NEW VIDEO!! This was supposed to be a quick turnaround but oh well. Check out my not review of Wanderstop. It's really not a review, I promise!

And wow, I was NOT expecting so many kids to be out at an Into Eternity show. Tech death band from the 00's and a bunch of AT MOST 18 year olds two stepping all over the floor? Alright, the scene lives after all!

Relived the glory days last night by hitting a show after work, sleeping about 4 hours and opening at work this morning.

Headliner didn't even get on stage until 11:30pm. Ahhh memories.

Yooka-Replaylee's working on me so far. Might've taken a long time, but I'm feeling that game for sure!

Wanna get Crossworlds, but I gotta wait until the next budget to justify $100 CAD.

Seriously, keep these updates coming. Nothing else quite like this series out there.

Might've been playing my Mill deck too much at my LGS. Ran into TWO people who are just throwing RoE Titans into decks just cause last night.

I do have an old lappy that I picked up specifically for just this purpose. I'm using it for my current job though so I postponed those plans.

How's gaming on Linux?

VZed is scared year round @vzed.bsky.social · 4d

yeah, looks like all of my hard drives and SSD's are MBR, which... would've been nice to be warned about, Microsoft.

I'm thinking I'm gonna end up trying Linux on at least one device soon, just need to find the time to figure it out.

Well, everything still works, just looks like another big ol' hurdle has appeared. Not sure how I proceed without reformatting my boot drive.

Alright, trying again. If you don't hear from me, I am probably troubleshooting the computer again.

Wish me luck.

It's back now, but am a little gun-shy to try again.

I might give it another go tomorrow, but ugh... today was not fun.

VZed is scared year round @vzed.bsky.social · 5d

turns out, for some of us, it's like 3 BIOS options that all need to be changed, and will make your boot drive disappear resulting in a whole bunch of googling to find out how to get it to register again just to boot back to regular old Windows 10

Okay, computer is working again, but original objective remains unsuccessful. Too scared to go digging around again...

VZed is scared year round @vzed.bsky.social · 5d

Cool! Cool Cool Cool! Everyone who said turning on secure boot was easy was lying apparently. Windows disappeared and am currently up shit creek.

Öoomg, Öoo is Öoowesome!

Don't think anyone following me watches the show, so: A dude straight up got bit by a poisonous snake and removed from the game. Medivacs usually mean no vote and the game goes on. Instead, this now 3 person team ran a challenge, got destroyed and now they have to go vote someone out anyways.

Holy shit, this is sadistic.

re: this week's Survivor.

Okay, so THING happens in the first 20 minutes. What could possibly be left for the rest of the episode?

After reviewing roughly 5 seconds of footage of Starcraft Brood War for the new video, I now have to go play Starcraft Brood War again like... immediately.

Shomi went under long time ago, before I could even give it a go, lol.

I avoided Crave for so long, but turns out they have a ton of stuff I want to watch so... here I am.

I miss Shomi

It also has this great feature where if you pause to let it load a bit, it stops loading the movie because you paused it! Real solid thinking there, Bell.

VZed is scared year round @vzed.bsky.social · 9d

Made it 17 seconds into this movie and it's already stopped and buffered for over two minutes. How anyone considers Crave as a legitimate streaming service is beyond me.

Still really enjoying new work. Hope I can land more of it the coming months, but I am also very interested in playing video games and watching movie or whatever again soon.
