All of these look super awesome.
I'm not too interested in VR but the tech looks awesome. Could see myself buying a steam machine if it has upgradeable RAM (Even more so a CPU socket, but that's a long shot).
I love my deck's controls so I might have to treat myself to the controller. Can't wait!

Alongside my Fediverse instance, I've just migrated my website (sillyjune.xyz) across to the new server!

Sorry for all the downtime across all my services over the last week or so! I am working on some big things behind the scenes and it has been quite rough to get working.
Hopefully the worst of it is now over.

do you ever just tell yourself you're going to do something tomorrow but realize you never started 4 months later

I *was* hoping on upgrading my server's RAM sometime early next year or in the next couple months but unfortunately prices have skyrocketed in the last week or so.
Unsurprisingly, from what I gather, it's to do with AI datacenters.

Just a little heads up - My infra will be down for maintenance sometime this week.
I'm doing a case swap for my server to mount it to a rack instead of having it freestanding, and improving some network routing while I am at it.

It would be interesting to see some more x86 Linux tablets in the market/Microsoft surface esque devices
I'd love to have a Ryzen 7xxx or newer Linux tablet/laptop hybrid, it would be unbelievably useful

With the recent unfortunate news about @frame.work and the business openly financially supporting racism, got me thinking about whether similar products exist
Surely they can't be the only ones out there creating repairable tech? I wonder if there are any overlooked players in this market?

Thinking about developing a chat application again...
It's something I've done in the past but I have struggled to make it actually practical.
Once was a tech demo for my own custom network protocol, which was the most successful..

After using it for about a week or so, I am enjoying tangled.sh so far.
In some areas it feels a little lackluster in features compared to github or forgejo - But the platform is still early and what is in the platform is definitely and improvement

I've had this one cooking for a little while, but now it's actually ready! Especially with the whole GitHub fiasco I felt like this was more important (Since I used to use my GitHub bio as a bit of an about me page, rather than a dedicated site)
I now have a personal website!

As much as I personally don't particularly like GitHub for all the AI gunk they shove into it, Astra API is now available on github as a mirror - Easier to access without needing to go to my forgejo instance. Should be much faster to clone and more reliable.

Given the scale of this next Astra API update, I've changed the version number from v1.3.0 to v2.0.0 - It's just too big to be a major update on its own.
My hope for it is to replace all compute-related Rust code with C, then call that code from Rust.
