Hi folks, I'm going to be streaming a little Hitman: Blood Money in a moment if anyone wants to hang out.

Inspired by the likes of @HexDSL and @ChrisWere I decided to relaunch my blog. It's just my own take on tech I get to play with, and conversations about tech I like to have. Please stop by, any comments/suggestions will be appreciated. And if you want to partake in discussion that would be great. Just keep it clean please.

@rhode Haha, I'm feeling that too.
@lunduke So is that a giant laptop, or tiny arcade machines?

@switchingsocial I'm searching for an Office replacement on Android. (Available from F-Droid) that can handle .doc and PDF files.
Anybody knows anything?
@ZacharyHerold I've been here for about 3 years.
@Gargron I would say it's more to do with the frequency of the drama as well as how vitriolic people can be about it all.
It's not so much an exodus but rather just people drifting away over time.
In short, they just don't have fun here any more.
I'm really saddened to see how many of my friends have left the #Fediverse in recent months, mostly due to various dramas.
Honestly, if I wasn't on a pretty terrific instance I'd have joined them too.

Continuing my investigation of "chat" apps.
The thought occurred that chat apps, whether Matrix, XMPP or IRC, are much more rooted in time. They demand your attention in the now, and are more ephemeral. Your timezone becomes critical.
Blogging and microblogging is timezone forgiving. Content is longer lasting. The culture is different. Levels of participation are often higher.

I never really thought I'd acquire enough neck ties (and bow ties) to fill up an entire drawer, but here I am...

I've been using Pinafore for Mastodon for a long while now, but I've gotta say, I'm really liking the new default Mastodon interface.
I can understand the appeal of the original, multi-column view---which is still available to use---but this looks a lot better to me.

Thanks to everyone who joined me on tonight's stream, it's been a hoot.
If you have the option, #NeonStruct is definitely worth a look, especially if you're into your #cyberpunk.
@Linux Yeah, it's very cyberpunk.
@nolan Those are good tips. Great post!
