Oh this one's subtle... It builds over time like a stand up set, rather than the instant explosive attack of Sweet Caroline...

If you aren't familiar with this and think I'm just sharing random music I like, PLEASE listen to it. I crack up every time. You couldn't make something this funny on purpose

You're not The Linux Guy, you're Linuxboy

(but fr I am NOT going to be throwing Linux questions at you, just the occasional wail of despair as I learn this shit myself)

AmmieGa500 @ammiega500.bsky.social · 2d

I haven't streamed for a bit but with the EVERYTHING happening with Windows I've cracked and am switching to Linux

In theory with OBS plus my plug n play HDMI capture this shouldn't impact my stream, but I'm still gonna need time to get everything set back up

Thanks for bearing with me

I saw an infographic a couple years ago about how to remove source identifiers from links and why it's important, but I can't find it again and too many people I know are sending me links with them so here's an infographic straight from the oven

Header text: "HEY YOU! YES YOU! TAKE THIS SHIT OUT OF LINKS!"

This is followed by a couple example urls, with a red square highlighting the sections with source identifiers. The rest of the text is as follows:

Source identifiers are used to track your activity on a site. Where you came from, what device you use, and even who you talk to. Whether it's written clearly in the url or tied to a random string of characters, it's assigned to your activity.

When you send a link containing a source identifier to somebody and they click it, it signals to the website that you two are connected. And that data goes right back to the website operators, and thus their advertisers.

Whenever you select "share" or "copy link" on a social app or website, it creates a link like this. If you give even the smallest shit about online privacy, it's important to remove them. Everything after the "?" symbol can be removed without issue, especially sections starting with "si=" or "utm_source="

100%'d Silent Hill f. Wish Cohost was still around so I could write a proper length review. Summarised:

Combat isn't great but exploration and puzzle solving is very good
Graphics are fuckin gorgeous
Story/writing/atmosphere is 10/10 except for what I'll say in my next bloop in rot 13

Overall 7/10

This is why you need to not just mask, but mask consistently in public.

Highlights
•
HIV/AIDS and COVID-19 are preventable infectious diseases with chronic systemic impacts including immune system dysfunction.
•
Chronic inflammation, immune exhaustion, and accelerated biological aging are shared hallmarks of HIVI/AIDS and Long COVID/PASC.
•
Tissue reservoir persistence drives long-term damage in both HIV and SARS-CoV-2. SARS-CoV-2 mirrors HIV-1 in its ability to evade immune defenses and cause chronic infection.
•
SARS-CoV-2 -associated neurological disorders (SAND) parallel HIV-associated neurological disorders (HAND).
•
Both pandemics exhibit failures in global solidarity and reveal inequities in healthcare access.

Wow what a cool and interesting game this sounds like it's gonna be... And apparently the music is all FM synth made with the same soundchip the Mega Drive used? Wow! Sounds like something y'all should wishlist imo!

Boss, we’ve got a problem. Users don’t want this stuff! They keep wanting to turn it off, even when we keep turning it back on!

Boss: I have an idea

Onedrive settings. A toggle for using AI to detect and identify faces is set to on. The caption says, you can only turn off this setting 3 times per year.

If you ever think my utter contempt towards gacha is overblown remember that 15 years ago this would've been a delightfully mid PSP game with fun extra costumes for your favorite characters and now it's designed to get teenagers addicted to the slot machine in their phone.

Behold! Gameplay of Silver Bullet, featuring music I composed and sound effects I made using FM synth, just like they did in the 1980's!

First stop: Mystic Mansion! Bust the bats and ghosts in the first half of this stage, then watch out for witches dropping cauldrons... or you'll be in for toil and trouble from their bubbles!

Reminder that Duolingo laid off most of their staff, including their localization teams, so that they could invest heavily into AI. Don't support Duolingo. Disable drops for a few days.

I use the adblock filter method from this page, and it works beautifully gist.github.com/mary-ext/6e2...

A VPN would also work; I've been using the free version of ProtonVPN when I'm on my phone protonvpn.com
