He was inconsiderate when he made edgy jokes, tried to test if those two Fiver guys really would put up a sign saying “gas the Jews” and once said the N-word in a livestream – controversy ensued for obvious reasons and he since apologized for his actions. I haven’t been really following him in the last few years but after those controversies he left any Nazi jokes out, I think he learned his lessons. He has since settled down with a family and it has been pleasant following his life, especially now that he has gotten into Linux.

But don’t tell anything like that to the average Internet leftist! Even if PewDiePie apologized and left edgy jokes out, changed and moved on, in their eyes he is eternally a Nazi or Nazi-enabler who can never redeem himself! No matter how many years have passed, no matter how many apologies, any time PewDiePie gets mentioned in a post or is the main topic, this happens.

Those two are real GG Allin songs.

To think of it, “Cyanide Ice Cream and Cum Soup” would fit really well right next to “Needle Up My Cock” and “Expose Yourself to Kids”.

“Cyanide Ice Cream and Cum Soup” sounds like an album title for a GWAR-style shock rock band.

There’s WriteFreely for example. There’s also Plume, but looks like it’s not actively maintained anymore.

And a guestbook, just like in the old times! I sent my regards.

Thanks for showing me that, fixed!

I may have used Skype for the last time in 2014 or so.

Didn’t know this is his first PC build, I assumed he had built one before.

Actually Sopuli was founded in February 2021. Few months after Lemmy’s federation got out of beta phase.

Excatly. Sopuli has become the instance for all things Finland, so that community would be more than welcome!

20 years ago this would have been April fools.

Been playing Splatoon 3 for the first time in half a year or so.

Really makes me wonder why criminals won’t use the actual Matrix protocol instead of this one. They wouldn’t have to pay for its use.

That certainly doesn’t make the game more appealing.

Started playing the first Watch Dogs for the first time in six years after learning about the wide variety of mods. As a Linux gamer I of course had to do a bit of tinkering. Ubisoft Connect would only make a black screen and take me to the login screen. I read that had something to do with Wayland and Proton not handling Electron apps really well. After switching to Wayland I could finally use Ubisoft Connect and download the game.

Performance-wise the game does well. After setting geometry and LoD levels to High instead of Ultra, the frame rate stays above 60 FPS. This may be mainly due to me using Linux and the game’s optimization as hardware is well above the recommendations.

Modding is currently annoyingly janky, as I had to create an XML file for each zipped mod for Disrupt Manager. Still I couldn’t get that working, as I got a weird error message. Interesting to know if that tool works all well on Windows. I resorted to installing The Worse Mod with Living City, so the game’s graphics get overhauled and more randomness and chaos is added to the game world. The graphics get more closer to the infamous E3 2012 demo, but as a downside the depth of field effect is closer to the player, as if Aiden Pearce were near-sighted.

Even a potato can run Linux so regardless of a distro it should be all fine.

God dang it, apparently he has now stated how he is “going to dedicate more time for making music and reduce the amount of work”, so he’s not entirely retiring. I’d say to him “make up your mind!”

Can’t say anything about that, as I played the game on GameCube.
