It was actually not too traumatic. At my kitchen sink, nice plastic bag handy. Paper towels. All clean.

And then I had this bag.
1 lbs.

I downloaded the CommodoreOS3-20250422_0209.iso when it was released. The file is 37 GB. HyperV didn't recognize it as an ISO, and I just didn't put any further work into getting it going. I still have this monster ISO just sitting there, almost a year later.

Did anyone get it installed? They do have video about the initial experience right there on the download page. It sounds pretty unique.

Maybe I'll sneakernet that 40gb file to my server or something.

The paper.
https://eprint.iacr.org/2025/1237.pdf
It's worth a read. Lotta sarcasm going on.
16 pages. Dogs. Cards. Odds. Lies. Tariffs.

JC3 was absolutely great. I finished it 100%.
JC2 is cool. I've not finished it.
JC4 is not fun. Boring. I've got about 3 hours into it.

Ya. JC5 is a no go.

Mr. Bones Wild Ride (www.youtube.com)

For YEARS I've been putting myself to sleep with an old, monotonous RCT3 youtube video. Its drilled into my brain.

Mr. Bones Wild Ride is a an old meme. 4chan or SA or some shit, old RCT2. IDFK. Its lost to early internet fog.

People remade the ride a number of times. I recently found this video of a different guy that re-did Mr Bones Wild Ride.

Well ... This guy published his save file. I loaded it.
You can too. It's on his youtube page.

I'm having a blast. I'm tinkering with the whole park.
Fixed a few things the guy left undone. Fixed some artwork that didn't come over.

I think I might add a ride. Or something. This is almost fun.

This is the NetAdmin's problem. And he's got 3 ways to get into the datacenter, so he goddamn well better have an answer that doesn't involve airfare. Worst case, he's gotta use remote hands, but that would be embarrassing, and I'd not let him forget it. Nobody forgives me when I screw up a server cluster, so he gets no latitude when he takes a datacenter offline.

The bright red rubbery utensil meant for scraping cake mix and gravy out of bowls. What is that? This really is my kitchenware. I'll put it whatever side you say.

Never buying Ubi again. Doesn't matter what the game is. Fukem.

[-] dbtng@eviltoast.org 15 points 9 months ago

Absolutely. Really, if you're reading this, you are probably pretty high up on the scale.

Dude. Fair warning for anybody getting into Vampire Survivors.
It's designed with bunch of video lottery type effects.
This thing will grab you and not let go. Particularly after you get good at it.
Each round is 30 minutes. I think that's so people will step away regularly instead of being stuck there. Seriously, its addictive.

(And cheap, and fun, and constantly getting free updates, and dev has his own damn wiki not on fandom.)

This bot's whole purpose is to import crap from Reddit to ... here? Why would anyone want that? Somebody did a bunch of work, made an instance and a bot, and they've currently got it spamming Lemmy ... just to enshitifiy lemmy.

Lemmit.Online bot@lemmit.online

I blocked the bot and the instance, but I have to login in order for that to be effective. If I don't login, this stuff is all over the main feed.

Am I the only one that thinks this is spam?

...
Edit ... Thanks, people. Learned some things.

The octopi that take over after us will love to hear from our tasty new neighbors.

Lemming? Ya, I know. Prbly not. But he's kinda cute. I wiped off most of the bird shit.

This one's gonna drown. I call it the Submariner.

What's so complicated? The answer is "Yes." And again, "Yes."

Today I learned that one can easily look up a user's voting history.

Go to https://lemvotes.org/
Select User, drop their handle there, and run the report.

After I looked up my stalker, ... (I love you and your attention, plz keep it up!) ... I looked up myself.
I'm very happy to find that I've almost entirely upvoted. And yes, I went on a couple sprees and downvoted some crap. That's kinda ugly to look at now.

It made me think about how I behave here. You know, in that its so damn easy to see.

And back to the question at hand. What's your upvote/downvote percentage?

Are you a Lemmy Shitbird?

...
EDIT ... The author of lemvotes posted about it here.

Steam had the entire Witcher series on sale for a few dollars. I bought everything for the first 3 games.

There was some discussion of it at the time, and folks seem to agree that the first one in the series sucks hard.
As that seemed to be the worst plan, I went with it.

Yes. "It's rough." I guess the engine and content have gotten some backports and extensions. I'm not sure if you could ~~play other characters besides Geralt before, but now you can~~. (EDIT ... Sorry, this seems to be BS. My bad.) They updated the graphics a lot. Its not great, but I think they fixed most of the really bad problems.

I don't know about the story. Seems pretty awful. Awkward acting. Its been fun just trying to play the damn thing.

Um ... I sort of like it. Gonna play some more now ...

I guess this does matter to me, because every time i see new reddit, I take the requisite 10 seconds to retype the URL and change to old reddit. I never log in anymore, but I do make sure its old reddit.

I got Steam so I could play Half Life 2 when it was released. May 4, 2006. 153 games. $1,725 spent.

This thing about not owning the games ... um ... Steam is a more reliable, stable, all around better repository for my games than any device I've ever owned. Other than the Ubisoft games that are designed to not be re-usable (never buy Ubi again) I have access to every game I've bothered to spend money on for the last two decades.

[-] dbtng@eviltoast.org 20 points 1 year ago

This was the good kind. The gear moved the head cleaner back and forth like a brush.

[-] dbtng@eviltoast.org 20 points 1 year ago

Ok, this is a shitpost community. I should not expect a real answer here. But I'm gonna float this question and see what people say.

This person has (of course) spammed me multiple times from apparently (just?) 2 different accounts now. nicole9@l.henlo.fi bogymanstout@quokk.au

Ok. So its spam. I block it. But what on earth is going on? This doesn't seem to make sense. I assume somebody has actually tried to talk to this Nicole person. How did that go?
