Went back to some 90s music on YT; stumbled into the uncomfortable realization that Powerman 5000 is now basically Dad Rock https://youtu.be/h48ozMZP70Y

I spoiled myself with a game treat and bought the game Tunic. It's a fine game. It is a cross between Zelda and Dark Souls. I had quite some fun but oh boy it is hard. Thankfully there is an accessibility option to make it easy. I used it only two times because my thumbs were already hurting enough and I didn't want to start a boss fight 100 times over. It is best to get into the game blind. I do admit that I looked up stuff at the end of the game because the puzzles to get the true ending are hard as heck and I have a life beyond that game.

@scribus It looks damn good but I'm not really in a mood for a brawler. Back in the day I played more Power Rangers The Movie on SNES because I didn't have Turtles in Time (only played as a rental at a friend's house).

I just had a customer accuse me of racially profiling her (from what I can tell, purely because I checked her id on an alcohol purchase) and she said “I used to work here, so, I know how it goes”, which I can literally only interpret as “I know you’re profiling me because I used to profile people”

Oh, and the Fast and Furious kids show was a bit of dumb fun, if you're the type who can enjoy the movies

Finished watching "Dead End Paranormal Park". It was mostly harmless. Not groundbreaking but it is "just a cartoon". LGBTQ representation aside it the show is unfocused and the episodes themselves are lacking the energy to stand on their own. The pace accelerated towards the end but didn't manage to fully have any lasting impact as a whole.

@adiwan That's sounding sadly par for Netflix, post-BoJack. They coulda had another with Tuca and Bertie, but nnoooo, they had to fall asleep at the wheel.... Disenchantment is disenchanting me as of late, feels like every season is bookended by interesting big-P Plot moments, and filled with trivial slice-of-life misadventures. A whole season of not exploring themes and character, ending with some sudden developments and cliffhangers, only to be semi-resolved in the first 2 of the next season and shunted aside until the final 2 or 3....

@scribus Centaurworld was good. Not my jam but good. Carmen Sandiego was good. Glitch Techs is also very fun. Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts too. Kid Cosmic is a definitive recommendation. Dogs in Space is a good "nothing to see else"-watch.
-
@adiwan Yeah, Carmen Sandiego was good, even if they did whitewash the history of the Samurai caste.... Lol

On the one hand, I'm shocked that I waited so long to check out Helluva Boss; on the other, I'm jazzed I didn't need to sit through the years of waiting for the project to be fully realized. Looking forward to a second season!

Thinking about retiring my Thinkpad x201. I LOVE the keyboard but it makes problems. When I hit the power button to turn it on, there is a 50:50 chance that the screen is blank and does nothing. It caused me some bigger problems with sleep mode and did the exact same thing on wake-up. Only turning the laptop completely off and on again helps, but on sleep mode all RAM content is gone. Hibernation is fine but it takes longer as a normal boot.

@adiwan Truly a sad day. I still miss my Dell Mini 9.
-
@scribus For a few reasons I also miss my Asus EEEPC 1000H keyboard. It was tiny but usable. It made me appreciate mapping Home, End, PgUp, and PgDwn to the arrow keys using the Fn Key. It made me like it so much that I remapped the "previous track", "next track", "play/pause", and "stop" buttons on the X201 keyboard to those in Linux.

Big corporations use their power to suppress everything that can threaten their business. Microsoft famously adopts free and open standards and alter them such that they are dominating them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embrace,_extend,_and_extinguish

@zeldatra Apple loves to Stockholm-syndrome their customers. Upgrading the hardware or even repair? No way! Soldered storage? Sure! Using slightly different chips and software-locking hardware components! Of course! Installing unauthorized software on the iPhone? HELL NO. No filthy hands, hardware or software should taint it.

@adiwan "Have you used certain hardware and software ever since you bought the machine? Well, not anymore! Every update takes power from you! It's not a bug, it's a fee-chur!"

So now I have a set of folders synced between my iPad and my computer so animation I do on the go just appears on my desktop when I get home. Pretty convenient. For some reason I thought Apple was anti-convenience.

Going to finally see Bob’s Burgers today after being delayed by relatable setbacks such as my co-worker getting COVID, me having to work 70 hours, and then me and my entire family getting COVID

@scribus Whenever I look up for something to know how it works I almost exclusively find videos that only scratch the surface of the thing and mostly those videos end up with "Now you know how it works". Tutorials are also a bane in my existence where the tutorial is more about everything else but the topic it tutorials about (including 1/3 of the video dedicating to personal banana of the video creator and a good portion to social media call to action blah blah).

I'm debating with myself if I should buy and play TUNIC https://store.steampowered.com/app/553420/TUNIC/ . And if I do, should I buy it from GOG or Steam?

@scribus Kinda funny it was PG13 when it had no blood, Hitler, or fairy sex workers... but Bakshi's "Wizards" was only a PG.

@scribus Pre-Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom? You’re taking your kids to that borderline R-rated cartoon.

@zeldatra Hell even post-Indy, my parents taped it off our yuppie cousins' cable and showed it to middle-school me, haha

This morning I startled the woman at the baker's shop. It was a few minutes after opening and nobody was lining up. The woman was preparing the coffee machine and I walked to the counter. I wasn't particularly sneaky. I mean I wasn't quiet on purpose. When I said "hello" she jumped up as if I wanted to rob this place. Not that extreme but it was a big reaction.

@adiwan I'm just gonna pretend that this is why my joints all pop, not because I've been falling apart for 3 decades, but out of courtesy for people I may accidentally sneak up on otherwise

@scribus Occasionally my knees pop loudly as well. Not today, but there were days when walking up the stairs made of stone sound like they are wooden.

Hearing Kingdom Hearts IV’s theme song will be an Eminem feature to try and appeal to people who liked that period in the early 2010s where every pop album had Eminem on it

@zeldatra Haven't wasted a thought on that damn pony generator trash in a long time. It creates a shudder along my spine when I remember the flood of OCs coming through the DeviantArt groups I followed.

My D&D group adopted a Xorn, a gem-eating monster, and named it Ruby. We bought some Xorns to smuggle them to a mine in order to sell them there but we kept one, as my character was good enough in animal handling that it got tamed.

Of course I knew the fediverse couldn't be that substantially different from twitsphere, but I had hoped to hide out a little more effectively. Side effect of typing my mind, I guess.
