Last Notes npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Anyone playing Warhammer 40k out there on the 'verse? npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Hollow Knight: Silk Song Y/n npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry On Saturday @npub19x9…ngfq and I drove down to Exeter for a meet & greet for Foster Boy Basil. All went well and he's now off on trial with his (hopefully) furever family, including a chocolate Labrador (which we said when he first arrived was probably exactly what he needed!) npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry ... then it wouldn't be a cappucino? npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I did a thing and started a zine. It's about games, tech and the Fediverse. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry New foster alert! Almost-two year old Basil arrived today and is learning the good life with the help of a few new friends. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Is it just me or are SSDs *really* expensive nowadays? npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Sorry, to clarify I meant calling back to the instance for translation. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Is the option available to let users use their instance for translation? I'm running DeepL on my instance so would be good to use that rather than using your compute power. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Got the diagnosis. Relief. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Pretty exciting news! We received our first financial contribution (that isn't me!) today from one of our PeerTube members! npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I need automate getting screenshots from my Lenovo Legion Go to nextcloud npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Another day, another Vulkan shader processed. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry @npub1pdw…m968 npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry See you in 3-5 working days then npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I've had it up to *here* with shader precaching tbh npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Fedilab is largely compatible to my knowledge? npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry So I had some good news last night. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I'm off work sick today, so I've been made responsible for supervising our new foster girl Poppy. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Testing fixing broken uploads on the instance. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry At long bloody last it's here. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Just saying, this month's Humble Choice is bloody brilliant. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry y'all got any of them crippling back spasms? npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I've decided to give getting an ADHD diagnosis another go. I've had a chat with a psychiatry provider that seems to indicate they don't need require my parents' permission (sarcasm but not really) to diagnose me. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I don't often talk about this shit on here, because I recognise as a white, middle class, straight, cis male in a developed country, I'm literally in the most privileged group it's possible to be in. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Fediverse Admins, I need your input! npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry 🤌 npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Finally got around to purchasing my 8bitdo Ultimate 2 controller today. Excited to test it out and see how it goes on Switch and with Tomb Raider on PC! npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry The clinical guidelines for diagnosis of ADHD require symptoms to be present before the age of 12 years old. Thus (at least in Australia) most Psychiatrists require either your school reports (don't have them anymore) or your parents to back up that you had issues at a young age. My mother especially will not admit to strangers that I ever had concentration issues as a child. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry So I've discovered a Psychiatrist over here that apparently *doesn't* require my parents' permission for me to be diagnosed with ADHD at 34 years of age. So that might be something promising to look at over the coming months, when I can find a few grand to spare. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I was having trouble getting a Peertube Runner image that did *exactly* what I wanted it to do, so I decided to create my own. Feel free to use, not documented as of yet (try and get that done tonight). npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I'm saddened (but not surprised) by Google's decision to enable hate speech based on gender identity on their platform. The company joins a line of others waiting to kiss the feet of a president as much about them as how far he could throw them. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry @npub12km…sy4s npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I've gotta say, there's some irony in kick-starting a product with the tag line "the future is federated and open source", when one of the headline products being kickstarted is neither federated or open source. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Thanks to everyone for the boosts and favourites! Sadly, Sarah still hasn't had any interest. Please keep her in mind and keep sharing! npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Anyone on the east coast of Australia looking for a beautiful Greyhound to adopt? Sweet Sarah has been in the care of my foster organisation for some time and is still looking for a furever home of her own :( npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I've just released the Fediverse.Games strategy for 2025. The focus for the next year will be on increasing our reliability and resiliency. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry A reminder that the instance will have a full scheduled outage for up to 60 minutes tomorrow as part of an upgrade to solar power. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry sorry, already drank it. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry look, tbh the risk of spiders in Australia is a bit overblown.<li>Funnel Webs - will probably kill you.</li><li>Mouse Spiders - might kill you but probably won't.</li><li>Redbacks - <em>could</em> kill you.</li> npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry we have so many redbacks in our house atm which is less than ideal, along with the normal house spiders and huntsmen and stuff. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Our foster boy Ray is having a few issues that need rectification as a result of a tooth extraction which happened before he came into our care. The rescue organisation we're working with, Homeward Bound Hounds, has set up a Go Fund Me to raise money for Ray's corrective surgery as well as to help Bella, a fellow foster who is currently being treated for cancer. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Why the long face? npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Are you new to the Fediverse or just after a new Mastodon intance? Why not give masto.fediverse.games a go? npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry and a shitty Monday it was tbh npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry came here to say this npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry So Pokemon Gold and Silver turned 25 and that is a fact I *really* needed to know today. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry New to Mastodon and need an instance to join? Just feel like a change? npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Is there detailed documentation anywhere on the moderation webhook event payloads? I see there is an example payload on page below, but it's pretty light on detail, and is it stable? Looking to build something around these payloads and don't want it to unexpectedly break on the next masto release (expectedly breaking is fine, I can work with that 😅) npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry my understanding from the docs is that you have to follow them though, so there's no discoverability for finding new peeps (edit: unless you go searching) once limited. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry So I see the US is trying *real hard* to speedrun Nazi Germany. That's just great for everyone. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry It seems like push notifications on @npub1rx6…pdar have stopped working. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry does anyone actually seriously use GenAI for anything other than a laugh or content farming? Who is asking for these features to be tacked on to every product ever? npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry It's Monday, and that alone brings a few bad vibes. But with what's happened over the last week more than a few people are probably feeling extra-bad vibes for the week ahead. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry According to leading experts, the healthiest place for your dog to sleep is on your bed. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I'm having some cooling issues with my rig so I may need to pull everything apart and flush my radiators and blocks (never doing a custom loop ever again tbh 😅 🫠) npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Sign ups are open for https://masto.fediverse.games ! npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Bus driver this afternoon is playing obnoxiously loud 80s hard rock, and I don't know what to think of this situation tbh. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Why oh why do I get container resource usage metrics for my Ubuntu hosts but not for the Fedora ones 🤔 npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry vorrei un cornetto? npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry but un cornetto npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry It also plays brilliantly on Bazzite :bazzite: :linux:, but it doesn't launch using Proton Experimental, need to set it to use Proton 9. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Spent some time this evening playing A Story About Birds, and what a lovely game! It has a nice, short and sweet yet strangely addictive gameplay loop. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Just kicked my ankle ball on the fucking dishwasher door and I think I might fucking die npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry dat corporate life npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry oof npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry it played brilliantly on my Legion Go npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry me today npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry i think you're looking for bridgy fed. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Finished up my play through of Future Cop: LAPD. In this episode we're at Long Beach taking on a tech bro who has taken control of the city's computer system. Might sound familiar, but all might not be what it seems. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Good Morning and Happy Birthday to the silliest, squiggliest three year old around! npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Well, we made it through the week. It certainly wasn't easy, but we got there in the end. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry good evening. You're up for a tiring day today. 😴 npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Morning! I'm off to the office today (boooooo) so I'm up extra early. To compensate, here's a picture of Tim Tam looking cute and awkward. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I was insufficiently caffeinated to deal with the day :( npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Maybe it's because I've been busy watching the #Netflix series at the moment (which is pretty decent btw) but I completely missed that the rest of the original #TombRaider games are getting the remastered treatment in February! Really good to see and great that Angel of Darkness is getting some love as well. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry If you're in #Australia, tell your representatives of all levels that the greyhound racing industry is cooked and you don't want your taxpayer funds going towards it, you don't want tracks approved in your city, you don't want animals abused and killed daily. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Do not bet on animal sports - if you have to have a punt at least bet on something where the participants can actually consent to it. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry There are currently a number of inquiries into the industry in NSW, among whistleblower criticism and the disgusting act of shutting their large rehoming facility on the Central Coast and firing all staff - a number of staff I now count among my good friends. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry There are more #Greyhound racing tracks in #Australia than in the *entire* result of the world. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Watching The Little Grey Film tonight. If you don't know a whole lot about the plight of #greyhounds in the racing industry in #Australia and across the world, I'd recommend you give it a watch - only 35 mins long. It tells a damning story as to what happens in the industry, and the control the gambling industry has on politics in this country despite what politician of either major party might say. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I don't believe in *anything* before coffee. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I declare this week to be #TinyGlade week! npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry #GoodMorning! It's a public holiday #MonDog which means extra doggy goodness! npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Returned for another #TinyDaily today and built a little semi-ruined Moon Temple on a crescent-shaped island. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry I thought the Italians hated english speakers? Or is it only tourists 😂 npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry And a short little timelapse over on #YouTube npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry After fighting with a few different games today, felt like a nice chill #TinyDaily time this evening 🧘♂️ npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Giving some consideration to what I'll be playing this weekend. My two main games #CitiesSkylines2 and #SpaceMarine2 are both having issues (one due to a mod breaking my save, the other due to an update tanking the performance), so I need something to record for my channel. I was thinking I might go with #PlanetZoo and potentially either #Hitman or #Warhammer40k #Battlesector, but not sure yet. Need to give each of them a try on #Linux :D #GamesFTW npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry 🫠 npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Story of my life tbh npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry #Nintendo apparently issuing copyright strikes on #YouTube channels showcasing emulated games. npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Time for a bit more #FutureCopLAPD! In this episode we're off to the Studio City underworld as we take down a mutant hell-bent on releasing a mutagens compound on greater LA! npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry It seems pretty evident at this point that the current existential climate crisis threat is Generative AI. Maybe #Terminator was right after all, but instead of #Skynet going live and passing judgement on humanity as a whole, it slowly bled Earth's resources until there was nothing left? npub1tjn2jdyhfp02skwttlx3thye5fnegyea598f2hfv7mamzxdvhwrst627xq Bob Dendry Well, I know I did an #Introduction like two days ago, but I've migrated!
