This is my fun social media account, I will post a lot of video game stuff (mostly old or cloud gaming) and some work stuff.
If I post an image with no Alt text it is because the image is just there for decoration and doesn't provide any extra meaning to the toot.

I like #gaming social media challenges, so I'm going to cross one over I did a while back.
Being suppressed for the longest time, being able to escape into a game was the only way I could really see and express myself. So, I sought out games with female characters.
So, this is my personal female #videogame character celebration challenge.
List a game for every letter of the alphabet. #AtoZ
The game must meet the following criteria:
- Must have a playable female character
- Must be a game I have personally played
Each day will bring with it a different game for each letter. Can I get the whole alphabet filled?

@argobeat do most people mute the mic because they don't want to talk to Internet ramdoms?
All I said to the guy who did all the talking and guiding was "hello" at the start and "well done" at the end.

Dentist: So, do you floss?
Me: Do you use a unique password for every account?
During this #HaloInfinite game an American dude with an uncanny ability to communicate quickly and effectively whilst mostly speaking in profanities took control of the game and guided the team to victory.
This felt GREAT! Amazing! I could really get into this online FPS stuff.
I can see why you young kids do this. This is just freaking AWESOME! #xp
PS: How does this stuff work? Do you add friends and make a regular team? A group of people who know each other and can play together well?
Also why does hardly anyone ever speak in chat?

@ChrisPirillo it’s been around for some time now. It is a nice place to get news curated by real people. It would be nice to see it integrated to the fediverse.

wikipedia's jimmy wales is spinning up his own social network ~ it looks (and seems to work) like a wiki: https://wt.social/ ~ i don't know how (or where) it fits into the overarching landscape, but i'm very glad they're trying something ~ the learning curve, to me, feels more like a brick wall ~ closer to post news than twitter or mastodon ~ #socialmedia

@Richard_Littler did the world end and I didn’t notice? Heh, typical me.
@kellyn different purposes. Artists can do wonders with a basic iPad. Plus I do find them useful for ultra portability, eg: camping tour lasting several days. It fits in the glove compartment and it is large enough for a couple of people to watch TV or movie.
Chromebook or Linux laptop at home, iPad for travel or fun touchscreen things.

“To the extent that people remain active on Twitter, they preserve the viability of Musk’s gambit. The illusory sense of community that still lingers on the platform is one of Musk’s most significant assets. No matter which side prevails, the true victor in any war is the person selling weapons to both sides.”

"Mom, can we buy a 6502 computer?"
"No, we have a 6502 at home."
