A big ol normie. I like engineering related stuff, parenting related stuff, Destiny 2, random crafty nerd projects, what have you. Boring reply guy 🤘

Picked up D2 a bit this week and holy shit are the sources of new good gear hidden behind like a million menus. The portal sounded like a good idea on paper! It's tons of UI between you and fun though.

Also I'm uninterested in a grind anyway so idk how much I can get into this again.

How exactly will the Galaxy Z Tri-Fold fold?
Samsung’s triple-folding phone could be my display-loving dream, but it all hinges on one key feature

I’m not a doctor or anything but it sure seems like making a destiny 3 would have been a better alternative to imagining everyone would play Covid lockdown quantities of vidya forever and to make three whole other games and borrow all the money in the world to do it.
Did Destiny 2 just organically dipped below 10k on Steam for the first time since... ever?

You would expect that to happen between Sunday and Reset bc it is ending of the week... but on a Wednesday following the weekly reset?

CHOTINER: So your son is 14, is that right?

IKARI: It's complex, Isaac. If—

CHOTINER: And the “robot” he pilots, that’s actually the child of an alien you keep crucified in the basement, which is possessed by the spirit of his dead mother?

IKARI: Look, let me answer the question.

CHOTINER: Sure.

Ubuntu: you open the garage and there's a car in there

Arch: you open the garage and there's a selection of parts and tools and a golden tome of car-building guides

NixOS: you open the garage and it's a Tesla factory. All the staff are either trans furries or Northrop Grumman consultants

My memories of the Power Rangers movie from when I was a kid were that it was a movie about suffering devastating loss and navigating the fallout together to come out stronger. It turns out it’s actually about going to another planet to get new mecha from a Renaissance Faire lady with abs

My contract with Blizzard sadly ends in just two weeks. Come October, I'll be looking for fulltime or contract work as a senior writer or narrative designer. If you need someone who can write sharp characters, poetic prose, and emotional stories, I'm available! www.hazelmonforton.com
It's #portfolioday! I'm presently a senior narrative designer at Blizzard, but before that I was at Bungie and Arkane. I wrote for the Writer's Guild award-nominated Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, and a bunch of critically acclaimed seasons and expansions in Destiny 2.

@pfrazee.com Hi!
If an account is taken down on Bluesky, data is retained for self-hosted PDS. However, for PDS managed by Bluesky, what happens to the records and blobs?

Every time my wife calls one of the dogs “baby dog” I’m like “someone needs to reset the strike name generator” but I never say it because that’s just nerd life I guess.

Expedition 33 is a game that loves being French and I love that for them. I love the mimes. I love Petank. Every country deserves a game that loves and celebrates itself, it's a great genre of game, I know because america already made six Grand Theft Autos ❤️

Fuck
I hope the 25.05 of NixOS fixes the l2tp bugs. It doesn't look like one of the potential fixes made it in to the merge window but I'm completely lost as to whether someone could magically fix it updating stuff.

Does anyone know who made up "aiat" for Destiny? It's such a fantastic little detail to an entire philosophy.

So when does the nix-channel --update get you to 25.05? I clearly misread what the release schedule means.
