Calling every first-person shooter game from 1993 to 1996 "a DOOM clone" was equally as silly as calling games "roguelike" nowadays. I will stop using that term immediately!
@shezza_t I went to the shop earlier, maybe a mile away, no more. It was chilly enough for a fleece when I left the house; at the shop it was t-shirt weather; then I got hailed on on the way back. At one point I could see the hail falling from the clouds on either side of the road but not -on- the road.
@glc I unplugged some USB things, reset the RAID on the enclosure, and it started working. I think the box's USB is a bit marginal? The enclosure has its own power supply so I dunno.
TueNAS is happy so far setting up a ZFS RAID1 and some shares. I'll try copying a load of data over later on.
Channel 4 website doing well today. Demands I disable my already disabled adblocker, and doesn't work at all in Safari (which has no adblocker installed at all). FFS.
@glc The laser is a thicc boi compared to the old inket so I'll need to do a bit of office reorg. But I've had enough of the inkjets' increasing enshitification.
Just watched the finale of Discovery..
It got to the end of the episode, and I checked.. .. Still 20 minutes left. Oh god, here comes the miserably dull crap.. For 20 whole entire minutes.
@Jayenkai STD lost me really not long after they went to the future. Far too much talking about how the current Space Problem makes them /feel/ rather than Starfleeting it, for my liking. I'm sure it goes down well with many, but SNW is more my speed.
@Middaparka I use Sublime Text, which has a native Linux version. GIMP would probably replace Acorn, DaVinci is a sledgehammer to replace Screenflow for video editing but it would work, and I assume there are screen capture tools. Inkscape may one day rival Designer but not yet.
I think most of my retro gamedev toolchain will work as-is.
I’m mostly wondering what I will do when it’s time to replace my Intel i9 MBP.
