I think it's funny, that Nintendo assumes, that I would not just put the gallery content on the micro SD card, to put it on my PC and share it from there 🀭
The cards arrive on Wednesday, so will probably upload some stuff, then ^^

Found this terrible picture of my computers circa 2000 (shot on a 640x480 Vivitar digicam). The janky-ass PC is a dual PPro Linux box. The other one is an SGI IndigoΒ² Solid Impact.

as described
the PC is covered in stickers and marker writing
the SGI has a desktop wallpaper stolen from Pete's Compendium of Knowledge: https://web.archive.org/web/19980521084527/http://www.compendium.org/Gallery/shirt_art_2.html

A Story About My Uncle (PC) Your uncle has been gone for longer than normal. Set off on a journey to a strange new world to find him.
Since much of gaming feels (IMO) like a dumpster fire of soon to fail live service open world extraction shooter clones and reboots of stuff I played when I was 25 (being the same age as old people is weird.), I decided to dig middling deep into my backlog and found this 12 year old little gem.
This is a 3D platformer Portal-ish experience.…

In anticipation of #SteamNextFest , I've been going through the demos on my Steam account ... at least the ones playable on Mac (I'll have to borrow a PC for the rest).
I love the art style of Date Time❀️: Melissa❀️, Morris❀️, Anna❀️ & it's not overly scary for a #HorrorGame , but also not quite my cup of tea

The Irish Council for Civil Liberties (#ICCL) has released an open source tool designed to reduce LLM hallucinations.
If my 15-year-old PC had a GPU I'd be tempted to give it a try.

I'm oddly sensitive to fan noise. A normal person's "quiet" PC to me is still unacceptably annoying. So I (foolishly) built an acoustic enclosure for my already-Noctua-laden PC.
Lots of faff for shaving off ~5dB(A).

Content warning:  

I think I got everything going that I need for daily or even all-time use. Affinity Photo, tax, and my KeePass run without issue. Autotyping doesn't work but I don't know if switching to X11 or installing a workaround is worth it because most pages make me enter user name and password in consecutive order and I can't autotype anyway.
All of that is just "nice-to-have", like connecting my Windows laptop and the Linux PC via WiFi or finding a replacement for my PDF e…

Sooo apparently Windows was trying to install updates while I was in the shower (with plastic wrap on btw bc yk) and my Grub defaults to booting Linux
My PC autonomously rebooted into Linux for me πŸ˜‡

It's April 2026 and Windows 11, the idk 15th (?) major release of Windows NT, an operating system first released 32 years ago just crashed it's networking stack so bad that rebooting doesn't work and I will have to force power-down and power-up my PC.
This happens about every 2 days.

Total Reload (PC) You wake up in an AI's droid body, and are quickly tasked with solving your way through the puzzle maze he's been building for millennia, with quite the lofty goal as your reward.
This is a pretty good Portal inspired FP puzzle game. Has all the things you'd expect: a disembodied "AI" talking to you, cubes, a gadgety gun, lots of rooms that require you to figure out the what the order of actions is.
Gonna get my 2 nitpicks out the way…

You know what would be really nice (but nobody is ever going to build)?
Oscilloscope that replaces the ungodly slow USB3/1000baseT PC interface port with NVLink.
Forget PCIe and Thunderbolt... 900 GB/s of bandwidth straight from the ADC to my GPU? Sign me up.

It blows my mind that for Β£7 I can have a tiny computer with 5Ghz WiFi and program it to make hardware gadgets.
This time I've made a remote controller for PC fans. It sets and measures RPM, and integrates with #HomeAssistant

In news related to the "oh crap this disk seems to be failing" issue, my mini PC is now running Ubuntu 26.04. Had to do `do-release-upgrade -d` to get it, and I wouldn't run 26.04 on a production server just yet. But I figure toying with it on a very standard piece of kit would be fine.

Unbricked laptop after connecting a PC keyboard (since the Chromebook keyboard doesn't have native F-keys to switch VTs, and I don't keep an ssh server running for paranoia reasons). kwin (_x11 and _wayland) was trying to access a symbol in kscreenlocker that was somehow not present in the installed version of the library, causing it to bomb out, causing the entire house of cards to collapse. I shoved a decent binary into place, and the box began working. As per my personal policy of…

my plan was almost going perfectly: the ssd delivery got delayed by one day, the pc didn’t boot the first time after installing it, but was all solved by literally tapping randomly on some cables, fedora’s second ever message on screen was a β€œcommand not found” error, but it booted anyway, I assumed I would get KDE but I got GNOME…
and now I’m too tired to use it 😭
