I think everyone knows what the Dead Internet Theory is. But after really finding smaller alternatives to the dogshit mainstream internet, I have my own little pet theory. Buried Alive Internet Theory. The internet is very much still alive and amazing, but corporations and shareholders are actively suppressing what makes the internet unique, because uniqueness and control for the pe » Continue Reading
My fiance and I have fused our physical media collections into one, figured I'd share out slowly growing collection so far! can you tell my fiance grew up on Xbox » Continue Reading
I finally made the plunge and installed my very first Arch based distro. Ok technically not since SteamOS is Arch based but like, my first TRUE Arch distro. It is definitely a massive learning curve to get used to using my terminal as much as you have to with arch and there have been some minor frustrations but along side that I can very much feel myself falling totally in love with EndeavourOS's ... » Continue Reading
I've seen a lot of people jump ship from traditional algorithm based social media to here but still bring the social media baggage with them, such as interacting with obviously bad-faith posts and having them end up being pushed to the top of the category. I know, people are gonna be passionate, people are inherently attracted to negativity since it's a more overwhelming emotion and those who use ... » Continue Reading
I recently got my hands on an old and flimsy laptop from a co-worker, naturally I've turned it into a new way to experiment with Linux. It's functionally gonna be my way of testing out less 'stable' versions of Linux and see how I like them, immediately I installed Fedora on it. And so far I've been loving it! I'm using the Cinnamon desktop environment which I've used before and it made me immedia... » Continue Reading
I recently swapped from Ubuntu to Pop!_OS to continue my slow Linux pipeline. After using it for a couple days I can easily say that it's infinitely better than Ubuntu. One big thing I really appreciate about Pop!_OS is that it comes with the drivers pre-installed so basically the moment you install it it simply just works. I've also had a significantly smoother process running Windows games and s... » Continue Reading
About a month or so ago I completely dropped FFXIV, still adore the game in a sense, but in it's current state it's just not interesting to me personally as an MMO-RPG specifically. And a big reason why I made that change is that WoW (both Classic and Retail) has exactly what I feel like FFXIV is missing. The biggest part for me is easily that every class feels extremely unique where in FFXIV all ... » Continue Reading
Recently officially ended my FFXIV (Final Fantasy 14) subscription at least for the time being and it's got me thinking about the very weirdly painful experience of losing your love for a video game or video game franchise. I guess I wouldn't say I've lost my love for FFXIV, it's simply just not what I personally look for in an MMO anymore, it's story and world will always be near and dear to my h... » Continue Reading
Hi! I've become a massive Linux head in an extremely short amount of time, I am no where near an expert mind you, I've only used Ubuntu/Kubuntu and a tiiiny bit of Fedora, but god I already have the brain worm. And with how much Microsoft has been shooting themselves in the foot with Windows 11 (and uh, kind of in general) I genuinely cannot comprehend why someone wouldn't at least give Linux a sh... » Continue Reading
I've had my eye on spacehey for awhile and I'm finally taking the plunge! I'm currently attempting to write a video essay on how to make your time on the internet fun again so I figured I'd explore spacehey a bit to see if I could mention it in the video! (assuming the video gets made...) I hope I meet some interesting people here :) » Continue Reading
