25Gbit? From my room I’m lucky to get 2.5Mbit (from my nominally 300Mbit Internet due to the WiFi sucking)…

Nice bike, nice terrain. How long of a ride do you normally go on the Tenere when doing longer rides?

The weather is finally getting nice where I live too, but my tires are seriously balding…

Do whatever floats your boat. I personally dislike diplomatic victory (I once got it accidentally and it was so unsatisfying), so I turned it off.

Analysis paralysis.

I’ve been getting back into Sid Meier’s Civilization 6 again and am actually going for victories. Because I want to really understand the mechanics I’m just playing with the base ruleset and won a religious victory and am now going for domination.

The problem is that the one more turn mindset is consuming me.

We used to get by with much less. If only we could start writing more efficient software again…

I’m late to the party, but if you’re new to Civ and looking for which game to start on, ignore the people who say that you need the DLCs for the “complete” experience.

I started on Civ 6, and fell for this, getting a complete edition (at a deep discount). When I tried to play it, I was quickly overwhelmed by the complexity. Now, 80 hours in, I realized I can play with just the base game rules, and that’s what I’ve been doing, and now I yearn for one more turn. I’ll eventually start playing with the DLC rules, but not before I get a good grasp on the base game.

Gomi, an early $5 iOS game that involved eating successively larger objects until an objective was reached, utilizing the tilt feature. It had so much potential to be a game with a medium to large speedrun/highscore community.

I’m normally really bad at timing the market but I really did get lucky for buying a Pi 5 8GB in September 2025.

I’ve been dual booting Windows and Linux (Ubuntu) for a while, and sadly I’m back on Windows after a month and a half of exclusively using Linux. The reason? Ethernet. I need to assign a static IP to a dev board with Ethernet, and while it works fairly easily on Windows, it just doesn’t work on Linux, saying it’s unavailable in the nmcli output.

Of course, Windows is worse than before. It hasn’t fixed the bug where it never updates the system time, forcing me to manually press sync on every boot. And it hasn’t fixed the newer bug where my laptop display needs to go down to 768p to display 300Hz, making me to go down to 60Hz to use the full 1080p resolution. All the while Microsoft pushes things nobody wants.

This just sounds like Factorio with Angel’s mods…

Copyright is far too long and should only last at most 20 years.

Actually, George Washington would agree with me if he was still alive. He and the other founding fathers created the notion of copyright, which was to last 14 years. Then big corporations changed the laws in their favor.
