I want to see Steam succeed only because they are pushing Linux gaming forward.

Otherwise I would have never gotten entangled in their ecosystem this much.

Now I own thousands of games on Steam, two old Steam Controllers, one new Steam Controller, and one Steam Link. I advise indie developers releasing their games on Steam.

I still wouldn't mind some options, some competition in that field. There is none.

As I expected, Monster Hunter Wilds is a great game, as a fan of the series I was really looking forward to it! Unfortunately it launched with a bunch of performance problems on PC so I avoided it for a while, but I can happily report that it runs at a capped 30fps on the PlayStation 5 just fine. The action is a bit more polished than in Rise, my favourite game in the series...this one might just take it's place!

"[deater] readily admits they’re a little behind on what’s new in gaming – only having just gotten around to Valve’s 2007 release of Portal. It’s a popular game, but [deater] didn’t want anyone to miss out on the fun – so set about porting Portal to the Apple II.

The port uses the “hires” mode of the Apple II for the flashy graphics that were state of the art around 1980 or so. It’s not a copy of the full game – only the first and last levels, combined with Jonathan Coulton’s now-classic ending theme, Still Alive. As is to be expected, it’s not a wild, fast paced gaming experience, but a cool use of BASIC to put together a fun tribute to a popular franchise."

The Xbox Series S will be increasing by $100 on August 1st, making its new price $500, up $200 since November 2020.

Across the series of “series” consoles, the prices will be increasing by $100 for 512gb models and $150 for 1tb models. Along with these price increases, they will be “sunsetting” the 2tb models.

Along with this announcement, Xbox suggested “buy now, pay later” and interest-free financing options.

An unfortunate side effect of the #incompetent and #erratic negotiating tactics of the #Trump administration — not to mention the regular apparent #gaming of #financialmarkets — is that some of the underlying stories in the global #economy can get overlooked.

People are kept perpetually on their toes about whether a deal with #Iran has, or hasn't been reached; whether the #StraitofHormuz is, or isn't, open; or whether Donald Trump thinks the Iranians are "terrible people" or "good people".

This can obscure facts such as that the world economy has not actually collapsed as had been feared.

The arcade from my childhood had turned almost entirely into a slot machine parlour.

Now, they've gotten rid of the slots and started bringing back some 80s and 90s coin-ops. Brilliant.

If they were to bring back Daytona USA, I'd already know exactly what to do. One phone call and just a single phrase: "Fancy a quick afternoon race?". And I’m sure that, even after 31 years, we'd find ourselves right out front at 16:30, our bikes chained to the nearest pole, getting hyped at the words "Gentlemen, start your engines!"

D&D 5e Monster Manual sprite sheet update: the Jabberwock! 😱

I went to the 5e Wild Beyond the Witchlight adventure book for my J monster. As I read more about the Jabberwock, it definitely qualified as a "boss" monster, so I designed it as such.

They're almost never seen in their entirety, inhabit primal forests, and no more than one has ever been seen at a time.

D&D 5e Monster Manual sprite sheet continues.

Went with a Minotaur for this one. Reading the description in 5e's Monster Manual, they're a little more demonic in origin than I thought, so I decided to emphasize that here.

Feel free to leave suggestions for fantasy monsters to draw next - they don't have to be alphabetical or any of that. If it seems enjoyable to do, I might just do it.

Post Originaly from https://bsky.app/profile/fjox.win/post/3mofs2frbvs2v at 2026 06 16

my server had been down for like 5 days now. Now im stuck on this stupid place and don't even have acces to my nas. Then I found out I spend the last day and a half copying the wrong drive with ddrescue. Im soo done with this shit. I have decade old hard drives but ask a ssd to do more then 3 years hell no. I want a server that could run forever if electricity is provided. Ssds make it impossible. 3 months of 15 vms that probably didn't even do 500gb per day in total killed a drive that supposed to have a rw capacity of 2400 tb. Also I hate bluesky with its stupid twitter like post limit of 500. My mastodon had a limit of 65536. You could write a small book with that. And now that I have to copy shit with ddrescue again but instead of getting the same or better performance since its a ssd copying to a USB harddrive compared to a USB harddrive to the same USB harddrive its 30 times slower at peak. And that USB harddrive is 1tb bigger. now some might say just use the last backup. Well to even acces ir i need a vm on that ssd because nobody plans that ssd especially one from a reputable brand like samsung dies after 4 months of use. Even if mine was rather extreme compared to the usual use of one of them. it's ridiculousthat only 50 bad sectors and a passed smart test causes all the data to be inaccessible. Also the expectationthat I have backups that can survivea nuke is unrealistic. If i had the money i wouldn't use decade old hardware. Now you might say just play video games on your gaming pc. Well i don't have one, all my desktops are on my server and the only other computer that could game properly is copying the drive. I pirated gamesI alreadyown on a laptop for just to play some shitty DM for a dozen mins. This thread is probablybecoming longer then any serious post I made on the fediverse. Anyways now that i dont have a ssd for vms ig i gotta use a dozen decade old hard drives from the discard pile of a graphics design studio since im broke and you cant run multiple windows on a single harddrive cause that shit fucking lagggs. Im so done with this shit, i can even torture myself by editing long overdue videos and ive watched so many video essays that I can't watch anymore. I might just start looking on ebay for like epyc Rome shit or something. HAHA I GOT IT TO COPY AT 135MB/s. So now it's done at 0000... great. STILL BETTER THEN 10 DAYS HAHHAHAHAHAHAHHS OR THE PREVIOUS DAY AND THEN SOME ONTOP JAHAHHAHAHSHSHDHDHHDJDJFHDJDJDJDHHFJDJDJDHDJJFHDHDHFHNFJFNJDJFKFJFJDJDHFH it wasn't done, ddrescuetime calc sucks ass like it's not gonna be like 12 hours instead of 8... all the copying was fine no errors ddrescue didn't see any faulty sectors and yet all my data is shot. I can't boot truenas nor can I extract the config of it.

Hot take: Nintendo is currently the most consumer friendly of the big gaming companies.

They’re not acquiring studios just to shut them down for underperforming.

They’re giving the option of upgrade packs rather than forcing you to repurchase old games for a new console.

They’re giving several months of advance notice of a $50 console increase rather than a week’s notice for a $300 jump.

They’re still seem to just be trying to make fun games for people to enjoy.
