My dog had another litter of puppies, 4 girls and 2 boys, last night between 2:30am and 5am this morning. They are incredibly tiny and cute. Gadget is an excellent mother to her babies. Here's a picture from earlier in the night. They've all passed out sleeping in one big snoring dogpile since. #dogs #dogsofmastodon

What's better than the Habs beating the Leafs on Saturday night? The Habs beating the Leafs on a Saturday night TWICE. (I know it's preseason, but still.) #hockey #nhl #habs #gohabsgo #montreal #montrealcanadiens #toronto #torontomapleleafs

Some crazy dude out there just put out a hack of Street Fighter III Third Strike making it 3 on 3 matches complete with Marvel style assists and a tag out system. This is absolutely wild. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJbLYvCs9Gc #retrogaming #gaming #streetfighter #thirdstrike #sf3 #capcom #arcade

Saint-Boniface, QC hosting tonight's preseason NHL game between the Ottawa Senators and Montreal Canadiens. Usually playing in the largest arena in hockey, seeing the Habs playing in a 4500 seat tiny arena by comparison is cool. The national anthem sung by 50 or so little kids was so cute. #montreal #gohabsgo #montrealcanadiens '#nhl #hockey

A recompilation of Kirby's Dream Land came out and I decided to take a look at it. I never had the chance to play it back in the day so I started to play it casually and... suddenly the credits roll. It was fun, short but fun. Didn't realize Kirby couldn't use enemy powers in the first game.

Beat the final boss on my last sliver of health on my last life. Close one.

If you close your eyes and listen hard enough, you can already hear creative directors across the globe in the middle of typing out "It'll be like GTA6, but _____________ AND we'll do it in 12 months, no crunch."

My dog is about to have another litter of puppies, 4 or 5 we think, so I apologize ahead of time for the inevitable flood of pictures of tiny baby puppies. I'm sure you won't mind. She's due any day now. You can see them moving around when she's asleep. Speaking of sleep, I am already *so* tired.

While we wait for GTAVI, here's two screenshots from the unfinished and upcoming GTA Vice City Stories PSP recompilation for PC. Audio is a bit rough and some stability issues under Proton but pretty nice.

Neat little Legend of Zelda fangame that started as a 1 to 1 recreation and quickly veered off into doing its own thing. I ended up finding myself lost in an underground tunnel system populated with... Minecraft creepers? Perfect weekend diversion.

Listening to friends talk about a song or movie they lost their virginity to when I made the realization that I lost mine to F-Zero X. Yeeeeah, Samurai Goroh was my wingman.

By the way, playing it in mega ultrawide at 240hz is insanely fun.

(Don't let this be the one that escapes containment.)

@Zodypop@oldbytes.space I really have no interest in getting a wooden American style cab at home when I already have my Chewlix. It would feel like such a huge step backwards, so it's either a second Chewlix or another similar candy cab for me. I appreciate the suggestion though.

There must be a lot more activity happening on Fedi right now as I was wondering why it looks like my instance was stuck 2 days in the past. I was still seeing new posts but everything was from 2 days ago. Turns out that there was over a half a million jobs sitting in my sidekiq queue. Bumped up the number of workers from the default to 30 and we're back to real-time after a day or so.

@krutonium@social.treehouse.systems As someone that works at one of those and pushes internally, it's not a case of incompetence at all. It's a matter of an enormous amount of time, money and effort to support Linux. It's not simply a matter of just flipping a switch to allow it to run under wine/proton. They have to be able to verify that their anticheat supports Linux and works properly and that means a LOT more time and training up a fuckton of people to handle it. Until the marketshare of Linux gamers gets large enough to make the effort worthwhile, we're not going to see things change yet. Also, I think a lot of Linux gamers - myself included - are against the concept of kernel-level anticheat regardless, so that would mean engineering a whole other strategy, etc... I wish it was a simple easy thing, but it's really, really not, even in the case of anti-cheat solutions that have a Linux option already good to go.

@rolle@mementomori.social I can't speak for anyone else, but my monitor's resolution is 5120x1440, so space isn't really a consideration for me. Other than that, I just find it easier to read the tab names when I need to and I feel that it's more natural to have my tabs on the left rather than up top. I'm not someone that has a ton of tabs open usually either, but definitely more than the 2 or 3 that you have. I'm also not someone that acts like tabs are bookmarks (I use Karakeep for that). I've got maybe 10-20 tabs open at the most.

Currently being chased around various Overwatch custom games by a woman who reallllllllly loves my voice and keeps screeching "DROP THE DISCORD DADDY" repeatedly. I am so sorry to all my Mercy parkour girlies whose ears are getting suddenly obliterated each time she finds me.

Muting her is fine for me but isn't going to help the people in the parkour customs when they hear her for the first time.

I'm just trying to practice my movement and get warmed up, you weirdo. 😭

This weekend is going to be devoted to fixing up some stuff in the arcade machine. Molex crimping tool, a Noctua fan to replace the one in the machine that has a broken fin so it makes a slight bit less noise, redoing the control panel wiring, redoing the coin mech wiring, cable management. Essentially, I'm redoing most of the amateurish work I've done in the machine years ago when I didn't know what I was doing. Also, downloaded about 80 or so games from Steam that I need to add to my frontend with proper gameplay videos and banners. Going to be a good time. We'll get the actual test and service switches inside the machine to work properly with my PC build. Also looking forward to replacing the fake Nesica card reader panel with a replica that will be able to wirelessly charge a phone but that will come a bit later on. I tried to do this myself previously but the wirelss charging coil was simply too weak to make it through the panel to the phone itself, sadly. #arcade #retrogaming

I have to give it up to 4 years ago me. If I thought that there was any remote chance of a tool or item that could be helpful when I got my arcade machine, I bought it. And I'm rediscovering this as I'm going through it and finding all sorts of things I bought and never used. Huge spools of 22 gauge wire, soldering station, rolls of electrical tape, molex connectors out the ass. I have half an electronics store over here. #arcade #retrogaming

Don't be surprised if you see some service outages right now. Amazon AWS West-2 in Oregon is apparently down/impacted which is causing Blizzard's BattleNet and Sony's PSN outages. https://health.aws.amazon.com/health/status

Spent some time working on my arcade machine over the weekend and during that time, I came to realize just how much information about various emulator frontends and such have been lost. Attract Mode's forums are gone and a few other places just... don't exist anymore. All that's left is Google's AI overview getting every last detail wrong, which is... just extra infuriating. (I use attract mode because of the NESiCAXLive theme that is on there is the only one that is remotely close enough to the real thing.) Anyways, I wired up a few extra buttons for Test/Service mode next to my coin buttons on my upper panel though I probably at some point should wire up my ACTUAL Test and Service buttons inside my machine. I'm planning on rewiring everything in the near future to be much more clean. The inside of my control panel is a complete rats nest, so redoing the wiring for proper wire lengths and doing some cable management is next. I also just moved my frontend and all preview videos and such to an NVME drive to avoid some slowness when the hard drive has spun down. #arcade #retrogaming
