Somebody used a racial slur on Reddit. I reported the post and called the man a racist freak and suggested he should go to Gab.

This is going to cost my Reddit account. 🤷🏻‍♂️

There is a plethora of chat and conferencing applications. Some proprietary, some open source, some self-hosted, some not. And all these different projects do their own thing really well (or good enough), but have almost zero integration with each other.

This is spurred by my recent searches for an open-source, self-hosted Discord alternative. While I think Discord is great and does a lot of things good, the proprietary aspect and who funded it (TenCent) bothers me. Lookig for a replacement you ended up with services like Mumble, which is a teamspeak-clone, but does Voice just fine! Jitsi does an excellent job streaming and then there are like dozens of chat application that do chat. And there is nothing that really works well with gaming.

I am not sure what to do.. And I am afraid of being number 15 here.. (Ref: imgs.xkcd.com/comics/standards )

mobile.twitter.com/Le_Figaro/s Slavery abolitionist's statue gets trashed. The guy who spent his wealth and influence to abolish slavery in all the French colonies got his statues trashed. WTF!?

I wish I had the time to write a chess-bot for the FediVerse. I have the idea, how to implement it and the libraries that go with it. Just need to find the time between work, gaming with friends and fuckbuddies. 😔

I am considering setting up a Dutch ArmA 3 clan again that isn't full-retard MILSIM clan like the rest of the clans or the one I have left behind.

Dating has never been so great thanks to two months of lockdown. 🙂

Attempt number 1 installing : installation guides on the site giving different approaches that mix in no meaningful way.

I took the first guide on the site, executed the Ubuntu installation instructions, grinded to a halt due to missing libraries. Discovered Ubuntu specific installation instructions that where completely different.

Running Ubuntu 20 didn't really help. So I'll try again tomorrow. :-)

Silence alarm, get dressed, go online to attend stand-up, discover that today is a rare (once every 5 years) national holiday.

Great start so far...

Trying the low-carb thing. So far I like the feeling of not being hungry while not eating much at all.

Since I am spending more time at home and not in bars I have some money to waste. So I ordered a replacement for my old X-52 Pro. As you can imagine.. I am hyped! :D

DCS World is doing a "try all models for free for a month" due to C19. This is going to be my end...

Not sure what to think about Generation Zero, that video game. It comes off as a "Sir, you are being hunted" with a bigger budget for fluffing and less of a end goal. I never got the impression I needed to do anything because the main story was in my face and never got the feeling I needed to do the main story. So this game is just running around on a massive island loosing the inventory management game (it was rigged from the start). Shooting stuff, exploring... and that kinda gameplay got stale really fast.

The other thing that annoyed the eff out of me is that there is no persistency (unless its loot somehow). Clear a village, reclaimed the motherland.. Reload aaaaaaaaaaaand enemies are back. FFS!

Shame, it had potential.

Regrettably I have replayed Halo:CE and damn... What a shitshow. Indistinguishable prefab of levels after indistinguishable prefab of arenas for the player to grind through to turn around halfway grind through the same levels/arenas is just lazy and bad.. just bad.

While the last level was a nice change, the three-way fight was weird. Non-sensical somehow. Also, why didn't guilty spark TP Master Chief into space or from great heights onto some hard rocks if MC was such an annoyance?

Ik hope the other installments don't suck as much.

2/10 -- cortana is ok
