It’s really hard to comprehend how much damage the mongrel Rupert Murdoch has done unless you sit down and look at his publications.

Endless far right slop riddled with engagement bait. The so called ‘news’ sells anger, not information.

Moved my Bluesky account from @outervale.bsky.social to @vale.rocks. Quite a neat feature.

It’s amazing how quickly Bluesky is evolving. It’s lovely to see a platform come together like this.

I wonder how long it’ll be until they start shoehorning in features in the pursuit of profit that damages the user experience.

It’s been a few days since I’ve posted so I figure I’ll just leave Star Trekkin’ here for any poor souls who haven’t had the privilege of experiencing it.

It’s time. Time for me to get Omikron.

I joined Bluesky this morning. It feels like a more refined version of Twitter pre Musk.

I’ll be sticking to the fediverse, but feel free to send me a follow!

Ahhh, yes. Neo-Twitter. Risen from the ashes of the internet’s previous tabloid crap peddler.

I wonder when we’ll phase out IPv4 in favour of v6. I suppose we’ll do it later.

I’ve been playing Mario Kart Wii half the day. I got rather violently Mario Karted by the bots on Koopa Cape a minute ago. From 1st to 12th in the blink of an eye. Oh well.

I’m playing with no bloom or background blurring in HD on my rather large TV with an Xbox controller. Of course, this wouldn’t be possible without the excellent Dolphin emulator. A huge thanks to all who have contributed to emulation.

Started my Diploma of Information Technology (Frontend Development) at North Metropolitan TAFE today!

Eager to absorb new knowledge, enhance my skills, and embrace the endless possibilities that lie ahead.

Hmm, might give Zed a go. Doubt it’ll shake me off Neovim but I’m open to alternatives.

I just remembered the time I had to wipe a PlayStation 2 with tens of game saves dating back to 2000 and one of the save icons was on it’s knees begging me not to delete them.

I still feel like a monster.

I hate Samsung and their complete ineptitude at writing software with a burning passion.

Sorry for that outage folks. The router had a blockage. Called out the plumber who cleared the debris from my Ethernet cable though. All good now.
