Tech used to be fun.

"Your PC tech hobby is owned by a GPU monopoly!"
"People will use AI as it ruins everything because its easy!"
"Everyone will use Windows even when its awful and buggy!"
"You'll give up everything to a surveillance state!"
"Own nothing and be happy!"
"Let them eat cake!"

I'm so fucking tired.

I am delighted with how he turned out!

Any official source on this?

One thing I WILL say Valve still needs to do, and the ONLY reason I still have a Windows drive, is SteamVR. SteamVR is the *only* thing that doesn't work well (if at all) under Linux, although it was workarounds...But people don't wanna tinker, they want it to *work*. It's literally the LAST thing.

When people say "I want SteamOS", what they're actually saying is "I wanna play games without Microsoft Windows."

Chief you already CAN. The special sauce for SteamOS is Proton, which lets you play Windows games on Linux...which you also get when you install Steam on Linux. Its already THERE.

Windows 12 Reportedly Set for Release This Year as a Fully Modular, Subscription-Based, AI-Focused OS Reports suggest that Microsoft may be gearing up to launch Windows 12 this year, which will be a modular and AI-focused OS.

Too many people see this and say "OOHHH I WISH I HAD STEAMOS" but then fail to realize that SteamOS is made for a console experience, not a PC. Also, all the things they want from SteamOS ALREADY exist in virtually all modern Linux distros.

tl;dr: Go install Mint.

Sick as fuck. Lots of coughs and grossness and full body chills...my voice dropped down an octave or two. Unfortunately I may end up missing my entire work week and straight up miss a paycheck.

I'm trying to think of it as a vacation, but also *money*.

I promise you this isn't even a "he must be holding back details" situation. Literally all I did was put 4 things (leather jewelry, for those wondering) in a basket and pay for them via Paypal.

2 hours later, order cancelled, account banned, NO message as to why.

Holy SHIT Etsy is trash.

So I was getting together a fit for FWA and attempted to buy 4 things off Etsy with an account I just made.

Order cancelled, and account perma banned.

Customer support just told me to go fuck myself.

I wasn't even told what policy I violated.

ALL I DID WAS TRY TO BUY SOMETHING, THE FUCK???

And we love him for that.

All good! Thats the plan, and waiting for my Eyes On Me to ship my way too. 🫡 Hopin' you've got some new hats too!

You plan to be at FWA? I picked up an Embrace Change shirt at MFF but it was the wrong size. 😅. Still wear your Own Worst Enemy hat everywhere tho!

Also, importantly, Stoat has a mobile Android app while Fluxer does not. Anyone know of that's changing soon?

Current experience with Discord alternatives:

I do seem to be getting more friend reqs on Fluxer over Stoat, which is surprising, as Stoat seems to have a bigger user base...also, Fluxer seems to go down more often due to its massive user influx.

Still haven't decided where to make a server yet.

There's too many people who think that just because Discord dropped Persona, that now everything is fine.

...No chief, they still very much intent to get your ID and/or biometics just like before. Just because its gonna be a DIFFERENT evil company doing it changes nothing.

Moneys so fuckin' tight with bills, life, and saving what I can for FWA.

...but I STILL can't get the obsession of getting a suit out of my head. Dammit.

With Discord pulling its mass surveillance bullshit, I'm now on both Fluxer (top) and Stoat (bottom)!

Do yourself a favor: Get on an alternative service. You don't have to delete your Discord, but it sure wouldn't hurt.

I'm so tired of fighting Big Tech. I miss when the internet was fun.

With whats going on with Discord and with the new shit dropping about Persona, I can no long in good faith even suggest people AV on VRChat.

I'm so tired. Have some dystopic nightmare info.

They're both very similar in the fact they're Discord-like, however Fluxer has its own version of Nitro is seems (call Plutonium), which Stoat just has all the features out in the open. There more under the hood but I am very surface level with them so far.

I am officially 100% locked in for FWA! Now the struggle is saving cash to actually spend there, and getting a decent fit going...

No more lookin' like I just walked out of my 9-to-5 to be there (although tbh it was kinda true for MFF). Related note, quality leather jewelry is a bit rare online!

I am finally opening up commissions! if you are interested in anything i offer please leave me a DM here.

Taking our RAM and SSDs weren't enough, now AI is even coming for our fucking spinning rust.

As the 2 year anniversary of kiwi nights approaches its important to remember our roots
