Hello! I'm going to be playing some Linux games over at https://cast.samsai.eu/ in about 15 minutes. Tonight's menu: "Hellpoint" and "Indoorlands". Then we'll go back for more of Wolfenstein: Blade of Agony. See you in the chat!

I do wish people wouldn't post things that amount to "ha ha, people use Linux and care about owning their computing time, imagine how much more they'd get done if they didn't."
I wouldn't be getting more done, I'd be in another industry.
Felt like writing. Don't expect positivity though. https://samsai.eu/post/headed-for-a-dark-age/
It's looking like a bunch of people got very angry at GOL today when this article went live: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2021/07/assemble-entertainment-release-an-open-letter-on-who-they-qdont-wantq-as-a-customer
All in all this is probably a win, since the sorts of people leaving due to an article like this will probably make community maintenance in the future a lot easier.

Stop playing AAA games.
I'm not talking boycot. I'm saying walk away from the whole rotted industry. Stop supporting that shit with a flip "No ethical consumption, so oh well!" Just don't play them or buy them any more.
No WoW. No Assassin's Creed. No GTA. No Call of Duty. Go find some actually good things in the indie space, at least there are good ideas there and maybe you'll support non-monsters. Better odds of doing so at least.
Going to play around with ggez.rs and Legion ECS over at https://cast.samsai.eu/ today. No specific plans, just going to see if I can get some windows up and sprites moving. See you in the chat!
I'm going to play a bit of The Dark Mod over at https://cast.samsai.eu/ in about 15 minutes. Things will be dark and we'll be sneaking around a lot. See you in the chat!

"we got confirmation from akamai that there are huge issues with edgedns right now." (anything with an Akamai cname?)

downdetector homepage is a bloodbath
Oh, I guess it's another Internet reset day. Apparently it was Akamai this time that fell over and took and took a fair chunk of the web with it.
I'm going to play around some more with Godot Engine stuff over at https://cast.samsai.eu/.
I'm going to play some more Loop Hero over at https://cast.samsai.eu/ in about 15 minutes. See you in the chat!

Yay, new 2TB hard drive arrived, so now I can double the size of my RAID1, so VOD storage should last a fair bit longer. Maybe one day I will find something more useful to store on it, but at least I have some kind of a use case for it.

I'm going to play around with some Godot Engine stuff today and see if I can start putting a couple of really vague ideas together to maybe get a game out of it at some point. https://cast.samsai.eu/
I'm going to be streaming some more Kerbal Space Program over at https://cast.samsai.eu in about 15 minutes. Going to see if I still remember how to space. See you in the chat!
