I thought that they would come to their senses after the CrowdStrike fiasco.

Finally picked up the Brotato DLC. Despite the mixed reviews I find it a lot of fun.

I also got Lonestar which is a space themed deck/bag and tableau builder roguelite. Enjoying it a lot so far. Probably won’t have quite as much longevity as the best of the genre but I think it will be good for a few dozen hours.

I also tried Undertale (currently at an all time low of $0.99) and Reventure but I didn’t end up keeping those. They felt too clunky and I guess they are not really my jam.

The Internet was already a teenager by then. It hooked up with Hypertext and the result was this brat called WWW.

My first WWW experience was trying Mosaic on a computer without an Internet connection. I knew what the Internet was, we had access through an X.25 PAD (kind of like a dial-up shell session, no direct TCP/IP) so I’d already used IRC, Usenet, FTP, Archie, Gopher etc. I also knew what hypertext was from various local help and document browser programs. So I figured out that Mosaic can display HTML documents but of course without Internet connectivity just showing some local demo pages didn’t seem all that special. But I figured it out later on…

A nice aspect of survivor games on the deck is that you can play them single handed (for the most part). I like to clone the left stick onto the right one so I can play with either hand.

Brotato is my current pick for this.

If I had to sum mine up it’s been Isaac on the Steam Deck and Tabletop Simulator on Linux. And a bunch of other stuff on both.

My boring advice is to spend a few weeks using it as it is out of the box: just play your favorite games on it.
After a while you might get a sense of what you would like to change (if anything) and then you can research how to go about it.

For casual games on the Deck some my most played are The Binding of Isaac (most hours by far), Brotato, Deep Rock Survivor, Slay the Spire, Balatro, Dead Cells, Crypt of the Necrodancer, Shotgun King. But there are so many good choices, it really depends on your taste.

Any naming convention is fine as long as it’s meaningful to you. But it’s a good idea to keep your own repos separate from the random ones you clone from the internet.

What I see is an inexperienced developer who instead of systematically debugging the issue keeps trying random stuff hoping that it will somehow work.

It’s been mostly Isaac as usual but I picked up Shotgun King: The Final Checkmate yesterday and I like it a lot. It’s a fast-playing roguelite with a neat idea that’s implemented well. The game mechanics remind me of Hoplite on mobile.

The game is currently on sale and has a free demo. It has good controller input and low resource use, a great fit for the Deck.

If you have an email workflow that you like then something like rss2email might be an option. You simply feed your incoming rss into your email. You’ll want to auto-tag (or otherwise organize) these emails to keep them separate from regular emails. Then you use your usual email tools to organize them further.

I’ve been using such a setup for the past 15 years.

Costs a lot less than therapy too.
