My post history looks like an AI but I promise I'm real, I have a dog, I'm into politics and I also play video games, so there's going to be a mix.

Warframe on Linux is not for the impatient!
Plays like a dream but 24GB shader downloads every couple of days is a bit much

So many hawks bang on about needing trident AND nuclear power. But it is very clear that if you want trident to fight Russia, then you really don't want to have juicy infrastructure targets, too... www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cv...

Solar power builds resilience into the grid and aids national security.

I was largely indifferent to pets other than my hamsters but now I have a dog I've gotten so attached to him I'm now occasionally pre-emptively mourning him, a little cry thinking about how he's not going to be here in 2035 or so. I don't do that for my wife or kids because I assume I'll die first.

I'm at my computer and in my peripheral vision my son is furtively looking over every so often to see if I'm busy. He's gotten into Warframe and probably wants me to play with him but doesn't want to be a nuisance. He doesn't realise he is my heart and my default state is to want to play with him ❤️

I love using video games to teach kids maths (not programming). DRG: Survivor is good for this. How do we figure out if 10% reload or 10% fire rate is better on the double barrel shotgun?
Let's calculate DPS. But let's include reload time. Now adjust for mods.
Never seen them so engaged with maths.
