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.

@gpowerf Gosh! Xbox Live 1.0.. I'll never forget the day i was gifted a Halo 2 + Xbox Live + Xbox Live Communicator Headset.
The legend began.

Since #Mastodon keeps attracting new users, it’s worth reiterating this crucial #infosec tip. Please remember to set up two factor authentication for your account. You can set this by using a TOTP application such as Google Authenticator, Authy, etc. Once you add a TOTP two-factor, Mastodon servers will let you add a physical key or a passkey for two-factor (preferred). I use Apple/iOS devices and passkey works really well.

@gentarkin I can’t wait to jump in either. As a game preservation effort this is great 👍
@apt mine took a few days. I imagine there’s a big backlog. My day job is looking after an archiving product, so I feel their pain.
@darth PS: I really don't like flatpaks, but I can live with it :D
@darth OK. The Pop!_OS machine I'm replacing is for light-duty stuff. Printing kid's homework, document editing, some minor GIMP editing... no dev, no biggies. Should be fine :)

Twitter users are all like “I don’t know if I can trust a bunch of career sysadmins and network engineers to run their own Mastodon instances” — meanwhile Elon is just running around the Twitter data center going “what’s this button do?”
@darth that's OK cool. I have no dreams of it being anything approaching a high-end PC :) but I do have an older Pop!_OS desktop machine I could replace with this.
Is the distro OK as a daily driver?
People are starting to get access to Insignia Live! This is a service that replaces the original Xbox Live.
I still haven't had my invite.
