doggo, tired,

@marlyn @unascribed long story, but I was part of a small in-group of people that had direct contact with notch back in the alpha/beta days (Esper/#mojang, since the IRC channel is obviously long dead)

@unascribed notch was an asshole even back in alpha/beta days, he just hid it better

don't think i'll ever forget the time he used us as a scapegoat for the community complaining about how buggy a beta build was

@unascribed he always was an asshole, always will be an asshole

say what you want about it, but Sonic 4 Episode 1 is the only Sonic game released in like, the past 20 years that I still get occasional desires to replay.

Even Sonic Mania, it was alright, but I don't really want to pick it up again when the game starts out with such a slog and only picks up later.

this was a real pain to get working on proton, because the launcher requires a specific ancient version of the JRE

but everything went swimmingly afterward

@gmsh eternal mood,

I am such a klutz.

I go into the kitchen to cook food and I come out with a PB&J sandwich and a burned foot.

_how am I supposed to explain this_

@KitRedgrave hacker doggo hugs hacker foxxo

kat cute,

Zero-player things are fun and my pet project needs a stress test, so I'm gonna let it run with random inputs while I sleep https://twitch.tv/K_S_/

what an eclectic selection of repositories, huh https://is.a.qute.dog/media/ogzhwr0reC9F3oNtPfU

@steph apparently the fix for firefox is to enable HTTPS DNS through Cloudflare

no I don't have a single clue *why* that supposedly fixes it but apparently it does

Worms Armageddon got an update today.

It's 2020. The game's old enough to drink at this point and it's still getting updates.

so I figured out why I couldn't connect to my server during the outage, despite the fact that I don't use Cloudflare at all

... DigitalOcean's nameservers *do* use Cloudflare, sigh

@sashahamilton cloudflare does domain name resolution now, so when it went down, it took a giant, not entirely related chunk of the internet with them

my instance was down until a couple of minutes ago and I have absolutely nothing tethered to cloudflare
