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.

There’s no company that I dislike dealing with in terms of their online presence more than FedEx. My local ice rink comes close in terms of user unfriendliness and bugs, but FedEx wins.
#YouTube is testing a three strikes and you are out rule against users who use ad blockers. This bug by design or misfeature goes directly against how many users use the Web. I understand that YouTube has to make money from free tier users, but ad blocking is a simple security feature to many. There’s got to be another way, the way YouTubers make money with sponsors is good, now YouTube have to figure out something similar. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/technology/youtube-tests-restricting-ad-blocker-users-to-3-video-views/

-"Don't pirate!"
-"Sure, I will sign up for your stupid subscription, whatever"
-"Oh and by the way, you need to disable all adblocks and privacy features in your web browser so we can track you and make money off of your data"

No Crunchyroll, you're not getting my money.

I started it up the next morning and it worked perfectly for a while, then after handling the board it started flaking out. So Inhave hope for the board being repairable, but finding the trace that’s intermittent will be tough, I bet.

If it does snow today I’m becoming a full on Pro-Global-Heating proponent. July British weather, July! We should be having a BBQ outside.

@peter Pop!_OS, Ubuntu, and Debian are my choices.
@wiredfire @admitsWrongIfProven honestly I still draw something square much like a Caprice or 240. That’s what a real car shape is like.

Ad blockers are also cybersecurity. Say it with me.
They reduce malvertising, watering hole attacks, and general malicious script execution. It’s not all about you, ad firms.
