After sitting in my library for years, I finally booted up Timberborn and now I’m hooked. Something about hydro engineering and logistics just tickles my brain. I just wish there was some sort of campaign mode to give me purpose once my coming can survive harsh droughts and badtides

Dancing baby gif somewhere on the page is a must.

Bonus points if you can get it to look like it’s still running on Shockwave flash

Maybe a geocities domain?

The Tribe folks have been very good to me. Great group of people.

It also helps me get practice on gear I can’t afford, but encounter at shows.

Just a heads up, Mint is an Ubuntu system with their customization.

I like the Cinnamon edition, personally. I have a laptop running it, and it’s been a very smooth experience.

Whoops! Typo. Tribe XR

My Steam library is about 400 games. ~30% of those are exclusively VR titles, 10-15% are pancake with VR support, and less than 5% are VR with desktop support.
The only shortage I see is AAA titles, which I could care less for.

I got almost exact clones of these my from kid’s school this week. Whole school of talented people and they’re resorting to slop.

All AI posters have that same sloppy, busy style that makes my eyes look past them and move on.
If they’re trying to get people’s attention, they need to know that AI banners and posters have a 40% loss in engagement compared to poorly designed, but human made posters.

If selected, you will be notified via email using the email address associated with your qualifying Steam account on or about September 17, 2026 that you have been added to the reservation queue. As units become available, people in the reservation queue will receive an email with the option to purchase. We’ll send the first batch of those starting Friday, September 18, 2026. Those emails will include a link for purchasing the Product (“Link”). The Link will expire 72 hours after it is sent by Valve. If you do not buy the Product by the expiration date, your opportunity will also expire. If you are not selected, you will receive an email letting you know that you’ve been added to the waitlist and we’ll let you know when more units become available.

Hearing about it is one thing. Seeing someone put it to the test and showing the extent of the surveillance and data harvesting is another.

The lottery is just for the first wave of shipments. After that, it’s a reservation queue. It also requires an account that’s been active for some period of time, and has made purchases (to try to cut down on scalper accounts).

I just had a cheap, Chinese generic battery pack blow itself up the other day. Managed to move it outside before it caught fire.

Elite: Dangerous consumed a significant part of my life for quite some time, especially when I discovered VR.

I became one with my ships. Bounty hunting, exploration, and mining were my main staples.

I loved the Daishi / Dire Wolf for many years!

Mad Cat / Timber Wolf

I was landing in Memphis a few weeks ago, and you can see the literal cloud of pollution surrounding this thing. There’s a distinct haze you can see centered on the thing.

I fired up an old Win7 box this weekend, and by the end of the day Microslop had force installed copilot onto the system.

Try Zorin. Very easy transition from Windows.

It looks like there was a blade separation and it somehow bypassed the abradable shroud. Both of these things should not happen, but it’s happened before on the CF56M engine and there’s an AD (Airworthiness Directive) to address that possibility. I wonder if Malta Air has complied with the AD.
