Managed Services tech nerd in the Pacific Northwest US. Dabbles in #photography, used to run a webcomic, plays some games but not really "a gamer." Enjoying the quiet life, or trying to anyway, which is rough given... *gestures randomly at everything in general*. I have opinions about #music and #animation (love me some #anime), but I try not to be a dingbat about it. Lots of #duckies strewn about.

@Catvalente@wandering.shop 1986 was a ridiculously stacked year. I mean, just in pop music you get top-tier records from Peter Gabriel, Pet Shop Boys, Wang Chung, Janet Jackson, the Beasties, 'cheMode, and I could go *on*. Absolute landmark of a year.

@ami_angelwings@urusai.social I really like your pick (Balsa is indeed *awesome*) but I'm going to go with... Boneclaw Mother, from Ursula Vernon's DIGGER comic. Absolutely the best no-fucks-to-give matriarchal figure in pretty much any storytelling medium.

@mcc@mastodon.social I admit I don't know the KeePass ecosystem terribly well, but does this go "up the chain" to regular KeePass 2.x or is it just XC?

@hikari@social.noyu.me Just unlocked an old memory for me, right there, of digging around in the Sounds profile stuff to find where to turn off that explorer nav sound prompt.

@ami_angelwings@urusai.social For #FavCharacterY I'm going with half of "the Bees," Yang Xiao Long, the "Y" in RWBY. Features in the 2nd best of the four original trailers, goes through one *heck* of a set of character arcs, and comes out the other side still punching and still quipping. I don't know if I'll watch any (supposed/presumed) new RWBY content going forward but I enjoyed those first few seasons (volumes?) well enough, all things considered. Yang's a delight! #FavCharacterAtoZ

Tonight's solo #Satisfactory save progress could be summed up as, "Well that's ONE way to get from way up here to way down there..."

@90sScriptKiddiw@kolektiva.social @ami_angelwings@urusai.social I honestly can't think of anyone better than this, though if pressed to pick someone-anyone-else I'll go with... Arutha conDoin, a key figure in the Riftwar books that I read and re-read so much when I was younger.

@ami_angelwings Lionel Fusco, the Person of Interest TV show. Absolute walking talking billboard for "ACAB" but... he gets some solid moments along the course of the story, and you end up feeling a grudging respect for the character.

I'm nearly 300 hours into my current solo #Satisfactory save and... I think I'm about ready to switch on power production at my nuclear generator facility. FINALLY.

@frak@mastodon.org.uk The graphical realism is pretty solid but the NPCs are mostly idiots, that's my problem with the "Outside" game.

Some #Satisfactory solo save nuclear power factory progress: My weirdly-arranged refineries for the Quickwire portion of the job are all placed and connected. Will this be the start and end of such wacky logistics experiments? Only time will tell.

Next up? Laying out the actual uranium processing line.

@pixel @ami_angelwings E did not vet her erstwhile allies nearly thoroughly enough, nor did she have a sufficient contingency plan if/when they were ready to discard her (or worse!) once her usefulness ended.

Another week's worth of progress on the nuclear power plant in my solo #Satisfactory save. I'm getting there, slowly but surely...

Satisfactory: UA Nuclear Project pt2

Technically, in this game, making a nuclear power plant is easy. This isn't even halfway done. Oh goodness, no. Making a nuclear power plant that doesn't accumulate an ever-growing amount of uranium fuel waste is much, much more complicated.

I swear, this is the sort of thing that makes me think NOAA's got genAI writing the forecasts.

"Rain and possibly a thunderstorm before 4pm, then a chance of showers and thunderstorms between 4pm and 5pm, then rain likely and possibly a thunderstorm after 5pm."
