i am so fortunate to have grown up with mister rogers

This is a photo from a Nest security camera slash doorbell. The security camera sent a notification to the user's cellphone that a person was seen at the door. But it's not a person! It's a fat mud dauber wasp just chilling on the camera.

bruh 😐

This is closer to a balance wheel in design.

Happy national thermal engineer day! The heroes that keep our framerates high and our temperatures low. 🫡

I'm gonna die mad that I didn't get a Super Mario Galaxy 2 port on the OG Switch.

I'm a simple man. I see The Slayer, I RT.

Absolutely LOVING this new Linux project: LSFG-VK.

Brings lossless FG to Linux. Works well. Incredibly easy to use.

3x the FPS in EverQuest (Fangbreaker), a godsend in The Nexus or raids.

2x FPS in Division 2, no anomalies even on fast-moving crosshairs. No discernible input difference.

How do I know my backyard figs are ripe? Because this jerk showed up with FIG PULP CRUSTED IN HIS HAIR

Wait, this isn't a Diddy Kong Racing gif. 😏

Hi. I'm a long time Hyundai owner. You want the "BlueDriver" OBD scan tool. It's more expensive than the cheap ~$20 options, but you'll need to spend a lot more to scan OEM-proprietary codes like wheel speed sensors.

These codes are not available in the OBD spec, so cheap dongles never cut it.

I can never go back from foldable. I always thought that I would like it, but I *really* like it. My first phone upgrade since, perhaps the Droid, that felt truly next-gen.

Loving my Open and hope to upgrade to tri-fold in the next few years. Would totally change what gear I travel w/ for work.

Impressive. Reducing Z-height to ~slab is wild micronization.

We're usually on the same page, but man I can't go back to a non-touch laptop. I might only use it 10-20% of the time, but it rapidly became frustrating not to have it on other PCs. Maybe I'm just an ogre that enjoys the laziest possible scrolling. 💀

Just the performance monitor

Performance monitor settings

You can opt into the Steam Client beta on PC to get this excellent performance monitor, which shows your base frame-rate when frame gen is engaged, plus the usual CPU, GPU and RAM speed and utilisation metrics.

So much!

It's a travesty that we don't have a modern and serious MechWarrior sim. All the mech customization is a great fit for modern gaming, and it would have tons of replayability.

MechWarrior 2: Mercenaries.

Full remaster. Plus online play that smashes together the combined arms elements of BF1942 Desert Combat with the game modes of UT2K4.

Man, the SimCity 3000 OST continues to be a banger

well officer, I was already ordering the fancy keycaps, and I have been THINKING about getting a Raspberry Pi5, so I saw this and thought haha thats cool a case that kinda looks like a nintendo, SO I HAD TO ORDER IT TOO OFFICER WHY ARE YOU BEING MEAN ABOUT MY SHOPPING HABITS

dope aesthetic

(even the inputs are sanitized, y'all.)

Features include: parsing EQ's proprietary caret-delimited spell data, automatic detection of the current player, live log monitoring+parsing, ability to reset individual buffs or all buffs on a per-player basis, portable JSON data storage, tokenized memory of last log. Been fun! Onto v6.0!

But it was immensely gratifying to solve this super unique-to-me problem. Every other solution for this is Windows-only and do not work in WINE. So I was able to fix something that would've been hopeless just two years ago. Pretty wild.

Vibe coding is fun. I just built the world's only Linux-compat buff parser/tracker for the Live version of EverQuest. (I'm an Enchanter #iykyk) It's on v5 now, with major codebase rearchitecting along the way.

Well, AI did it all for me.

Sweet link! Gonna check it out :D

Oooooh, really good choice. I didn't get into strategy games until the Windows era, and have always been bummed I missed Populous when new.

I'll have to look this up! Maybe I can even find the old AdLib sound font. 🤔

Tell me more about Telengard! New to me.
