SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 24/07/2026Also trying to co-opt a Spanish phrase I've read about online, "the right oppresses, the left liberates" 021
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 08/07/2026(I wasn't prompted for alt text on Aether Pictogram - anyway it's a Game Boy Camera style low-res photo of a squishy Kirby toy sitting on a post-it dispenser, with a small rubber duckie in the background) 020
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 24/06/2026Was going to say, this sounds a lot like their testing-the-fences attempt at crypto 040
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 16/06/202690s nostalgia? I feel like the 90s had a handful of media that seemed to be implicitly or explicitly trying to reform his reputation (Win Ben Stein's Money, for one thing). I think, kind of like with Hogan's Heroes and Mel Brooks, over time the joke loses context and the bad guys become cartoons. 000
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 09/06/2026Argh, lost 5 days of notes because obsidian-git decided to break authentication on desktop and in my idiotic fumbling to fix it I apparently somehow pulled to iOS without committing changes first. Doubt any of it was important, but I'll probably never know because I have the memory of a goldfish. 020
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 15/05/2026I finally did what I've been meaning to do for a while now, partly because of a glass of wine, partly because I want a fancy tote bag for buying more booze later this year, and partly because I want y'all to save poor Tim's voice. Maybe buy him some tea to drink out of a whiskey glass or something. 050
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 15/02/2026Black and Blue, split the onion rings with Kim (or don't; I don't know y'all's preferences ;p) 010
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 16/01/2026You know how when Johnny Cash covered Hurt, Trent Reznor said it wasn't his song anymore? youtu.be/I5XR48KLE8I?...youtu.beGWAR cover “Pink Pony Club” by Chappell RoanYouTube video by The A.V. Club 030

SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 26/11/2025Something that still pops up in my head after watching Superman a couple months ago is James Gunn made Clark a breakfast-for-dinner kind of guy, which is wholesome af and fits well with this incarnation of Clark (Granted I say this as a breakfast-for-dinner kind of person, myself) 000
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 27/10/2025Pay off any debts my (relatively small) family and (very few) friends have (including my own), bolster my retirement and income, take the remaining amount and set up funds for various charities. Most definitely not destroying a historical building, and absolutely not building a ballroom. 000
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 13/10/2025When I do hand out candy, my goal al the end of the night is to have nothing left in the bowl (apart from a few select pieces for my stash, like one of each type that I like). I don't care if you're wearing your pajamas, I want the bowl empty. 010
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 12/10/2025Honestly it's like picking the best ninja turtle, my order changes constantly (Egon, Peter, Winston, Ray) (Donnie, Raph, Mikey, Leo) 100
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 01/10/2025Spent the first half of my night running chkdsk on my old desktop because Rescuezilla refuses to back up one of the drives past 94.21%, and spent the second half of my night trying to recover my iPhone because the 26.0.1 update hung up on literally the last pixel of the update bar. Good times. 000
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 30/09/2025Feels like this needs to be in a John Nelson video announcing a new ArcGIS style 000
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 24/09/2025Wait, who would have a problem with unsolicited duck pics? 020
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 20/09/2025Team bar at home, but pretty flexible when I'm traveling. I'm not a fan of the spongy things, and the moisturizers never make me feel clean. But I also hate having extra stuff in my shaving kit. 010
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 24/08/2025There's speculation that it's makeup due to bruising, possibly by an IV. I'm not sure if there's been any other theories. 110
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 20/08/2025I'm not sure about the rest, but @progresstexas.bsky.social interviewed Austin Rep. Sheryl Cole today and she said she signed it so she could get home to take care of her 87 year old mother. I imagine they all got blindsided by the papers and Collier was maybe in a better position to refuse? 030
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 10/08/2025Anxiously awaiting the Tech Pod episode in a year or two where @bradshoemaker.bsky.social excitedly explains to @willsmith.fun how some guy made an AOL dial-in server and put it on GitHub (I'm only 1/4 joking; I really want to hear this, I love those episodes) 020
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 30/07/2025Regarding the emotes to end a conversation: I've tried to move away from the thumbs up (because sarcasm vibes and just boring) by trying to use a peace sign as "you're welcome" and a Shaka as a "thanks", but the older people in my office told me they weren't sure whether to take that as a "call me" 010
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 23/07/2025I'm pretty sure I have most of the N64 games in my DAT file (US ones, at least) and yet the only game I'm interested in playing on my handheld is Tetrisphere. 030
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 28/06/2025Yeah, I found myself using save states a lot just to save myself frustration. But such a charming game, and I loved the seeds for some of the ideas in Link's Awakening. 000
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 05/05/202510/10 (the QL, not the game) You might have tried it already, but for an older game like that, Alt+Enter might force the full screen mode into windowed mode and maybe make the truck selection screen show more of the UI. But also it might ruin the mystique of "THUNDERBU" 110
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 15/04/2025It's just YouTube; he mentioned on TMS and Play Retro yesterday that he's breaking out the multiple shows into their own bespoke YouTube channels, so I imagine all of the backlog will be on the new channels once he's finished. 110
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 10/04/2025I may be misreading it, but there's a sentence in there that sounds slightly mangled to the point that the AI sounds like it called the proposed guest a tool. Well, an AI writing tool, but still a tool. 030
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 18/03/2025Polyphemus, looking defeated, deletes his favorite streaming app 040
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 11/03/2025At a diner: scrambled or omelette. At home: vulcanized over hard (because I'm not great at cooking). At a pub: scotch. 000
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 21/02/2025(Everything turned out fine, as expected - the difficult part was having to wait until after work to check on it) 010
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 21/02/2025Iconic, and miles beyond the second best by Mister Rogers 010
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 19/02/2025Made it all the way to the office before realizing I forgot to drip my pipes last night and check for leaks this morning 🤦 Worst part is I spent way too much time outside last night fiddling with a faucet cover and never even thought about inside. 110
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 04/02/2025I guess I just needed to listen to something about defeating nihilism with hope (and killing a god with the power of friendship, as all good JRPGs go) 000
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 04/02/2025The Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster OSTs are on Steam right now (on sale!), and like a sucker I got all of them but really only wanted the orchestral recording of FF6. I meant to play some Diablo 4 tonight, but instead I wound up doomscrolling here and listening to the finale to FF6. 110
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 02/02/2025Easy answer: WW or TP Longer shot: ALBW Possible (given it's the most likely in cycle to other remakes): OoT/MM Unlikely but want: Oracle x2 in New LA style (x3 with a remake of HF would be even better) Never gonna happen (but I'd love it anyway): AoL 000
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 21/01/2025I will say, if you have any desire to play an emulation handheld away from wifi, don't ever dabble with retroachievements; you'll find yourself second guessing whether you *really* want to play Pokemon Pinball on the off-chance you do something mid-session that would otherwise pop an achievement. 020
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 20/01/2025Finished For the Frog the Bell Tolls last night (after playing it off and on for... a *really* long time) and it's a lot of fun and fairly short. The gameplay is so much different than what I'd expect from Nintendo, even with the limitations of the Game Boy. retroachievements.org/game/5045retroachievements.orgKaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru | For the Frog the Bell Tolls (Game Boy)There are 79 achievements worth 506 points. Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru | For the Frog the Bell Tolls for Game Boy - explore and compete on this classic game at RetroAchievements. 130
SkadusX @skadusx.bsky.social · 18/01/2025Regarding y'all's discussion on save sync, most of the custom firmwares I've used recently have Syncthing built into them. One of my weekend projects is to try to compile all of my saves and save states from my PCs and Anbernic devices and set it up using this tutorial: youtu.be/NPx8FREezR4youtu.beSyncthing on Retro Handhelds!
