There are games I pay for, but only on Nintendo consoles. Aside from that, it’s strictly write it myself or go without.

I definitely should donate to more FOSS projects, though.

Well damn. You’re right. The ones I’ve been releasing were all invasive ones. I didn’t think to check, but now I’ll have to revise my approach. Probably the freezer thing.

I’ve had some stink bugs too, and it seems like most of the means the internet recommends for dealing with them suck in some way (only some of them literally like what you resorted to).

• Squashing is universally contraindicated.
• Sucking them up with a vacuum can make your vacuum stink.
• Putting a light on a bowl of soapy and/or vinegary water would work, but is kindof a messy pain to deal with.
• Pesticides are generally dangerous to humans.
• My preferred option – catch them gently and take them outside alive – runs the risk that they’ll just find their way inside again

But I guess I find that last option the least offensive.

There was one I dealt with differently, though. I dropped him into a spider web a spider had built over my kitchen sink. I like to think the spider was very appreciative.

I will never understand why an almost-entirely-text-with-a-few-images blog entry (that’s not even all that long) cannot scroll at a rate of even 1fps on a Raspberry Pi 4.

I use Lemuroid on Android. Works well. On F-Droid. Nothing about it has prompted me to search for alternatives, so no idea how it stacks up against other options.

Also, EasyRPG Player on Android for RPG Maker games. (I played the original Yume Nikki not terribly long ago via EasyRPG Player.) Also on F-Droid. Also worked great.

“Clown.” Some of my best friends do clowning as a hobby.

Is this person confusing the words “conscious” and “cautious”? He’s used “conscious excitement” and “…one needs to be careful and conscious when deciding…”. “Cautious” sounds more natural in both cases.

You mean “Em—Dash”?

Ooo. Did this article get swamped with traffic and go down? I can’t access it right now.

Archive in case it’s down for others.

2026 is going to be the year of GPL enforcement. In a good way.

I ran across Kuhn’s blog post about how he was diagnosed with diabetes just the other day on Mastodon. What a wild followup.

Check your spam folder. I don’t know that I’ve ever not received an email I was supposed to have received and found that the spam folder was actually the issue. But it’s still a good idea to check it in case that’s the whole issue.

Got an LG TV years ago. The Wifi broke within like two months. Honestly, it’s a blessing, because it hasn’t been connected to the internet since.

Instead I got a Chromecast and a Xumo which spy on me instead. :\

“You?” As in me? I’m confused.

Ah. Ok. I did watch it at double speed, so I guess I can’t really argue.

What was wrong with the video exactly?

Add a little garlic salt, dip fresh broccoli florets in it. Surprisingly good.

This whole article is hokey.

But assuming permissive licenses lead copyleft licenses, I think it’s unfortunate.

That’s the joke.

Nobody else immediately thought of this?
