Elkan Nixed

Working my way through the first few Resident Evil games. Currently playing the second remake one.

I don’t have a door

I played the original on PC, but had to use some mods to fix some stuff. Also, the framerate is horrible in certain places. I definitely recommend playing the Remaster unless you need an extra challenge.

Got a few smaller ones from my wishlist: Sword & Sworcery, To The Moon, Antichamber, Her Story, Undertale, Sorcery! 1-4, Reigns, Call of the Sea and Overboard!

Looks like it’s on sale… 20% off. I’m in doubt, not sure if I’m going to use it as much as I think.

Yep I did the same thing, but running a private Invidious instance (frontend for YouTube) with only subscribed to the channels I really want to watch. Result is no more infinite rabbit hole of recommended videos, just the ones I really want to watch.

Pretty busy place you got here

It really depends on what kind of state you’re storing. For UI or other client stuff usually a context provider is enough. For server data/state I started using React Query a lot more. It syncs server data across components that use the same cache key, which is really powerful.

Oh darn. Since I have a Steam Deck I’ve been wishlisting games like a mad man. It’s going to hard to not buy new games. One of the reasons I got a Deck is that I want to clear out by backlog.

They are adding new counties every now and then. I believe they added Taiwan to the list, the country they’re actually assembled.

I’m on Signal (obviously not self hosted) and even if I really wanted to move to another platform be it self hosted or yet another privacy focussed one, I can’t ask my friends and family to move to another platform again. I already asked them to move away from WhatsApp, can’t do it again…

Outer Wilds, Disco Elysium and Elden Ring for me! I had not had the Steam Deck for that long though.

I can concur. Outer Wilds is one of the best games out there, and the DLC is a whole other ballgame, it’s amazing.

Yep, in the Netherlands we drink tap water all the time. No reason to boil it, except for tea of coffee of course.

I have been using DuckDuckGo for so long, it feels weird to move to something else again. Just like that time when switching from Google.

SearxNG sounds intriguing though, maybe even self hosted. But it feels a tad too slow.

I’ve been using Firefox for a long while, but it’s been quite buggy lately so I switched to Brave for now. Until Arc Browser on iOS is like a real browser instead of just a companion app.
