everyone's making steam deck form factor gaming handhelds. what i want is a keyboard form factor computer. maybe with a detachable screen for portability. no not a laptop that's different fuck you

@monorail (granted that might be just cos im not looking in the right places)

@monorail sorry - i guess i meant "a thing" in the sense that e.g. nes or dreamcast homebrew are a thing, with fully standalone homebrew games still being made and sometimes physically released to this day. i'm not aware of such projects for the gamecube

@Hearth physically it's the size of a dvd but im pretty sure the format differs. iirc it's something to do with encryption that involves a YAG-laser burst cutting area engraved into the disk

the other day i was thinking about the idea of gamecube homebrew. i wonder if it'll ever become a thing. i suppose it's hard to test on the real hardware without somewhat invasive modding since the disc format is proprietary... which would also make physical game releases almost impossible...

I joined mastodon today because the CEO of #tumblr had a complete meltdown recently when people called him out for deleting a trans woman's blog because she posted a transition timeline. The vibes were definitely off, just doesn't feel like a safe place right now. I'd love to follow more #trans and #queer folks on here! This is my second social media account (third if you count myspace. omg should I go back to myspace??) so I need all the help I can get with navigating this place.

I don't know when I first had this thought, but I think of it often nowadays:

The only thing separating you from being good at something is time. Some would say time and effort, but it really just boils down to time. What's hard is being good, but that's not your goal -- your goal is simply to practice.

Do something long enough, and you will inevitably get better. Where effort comes into play is the slope of that graph over time. But if you're cool with waiting, it's not hard to learn new things slowly, so you might as well start now. The best time to plant a tree is in the past, but the second best is today.

@Xkeeper yeah - like i said, the context is that i need to move some files in a way that would be destructive to the seeding, but the files are like a terabyte in total so i don't want to copy them around

the context here is that i've got a bunch of the eXo collections seeding, but the torrents put them in their own separate folders and (according to the installer) i need to merge them before installing them in order for it to work properly, which would be destructive to the torrent seeding

torrenting etiquette question: how long should i seed a torrent (aside from "as long as possible" obviously)? i figure my seed/leech ratio should be above a certain value - 1.0? 2.0? any guidance here?

does anyone know why Frank's Red Hot bottles have that distinctive shape? the bulge in the neck almost makes me think maybe it was supposed to be a codd-neck bottle at one point but i have no idea why you'd do that for hot sauce
