Silver Ball Century, my chronological playthrough of virtual pinball, has reached 1979: https://twitch.tv/arborelia
@leigh hi! I stream a lot of virtual pinball, mostly in a stream series where I’m experiencing it chronologically (1979 starts tomorrow).
And my wife and I just bought a physical Legends of Valhalla table.
ALttP randomizer: what if door shuffle, but more shuffle
The flippers were taunting me in plain sight for an hour and a half, and I eventually found the connector that went to them, but I had to get dinner. Resuming and then doing Advent of Code
There's new versions of Door Shuffle and Overworld Shuffle for ALttP Randomizer! Trying them out with my favorite mode, MODESTBonk
(Mixed Overworld, Door + Entrance Shuffle, Trinity goal, Bonk shuffle)
A while back I saw an r/woodworking post where someone was asking for resources for woodworking plans. A few people told them to Google it.
If you Google it you get absolute horseshit. Just page after page of useless results. So we need to stop the fucking "let me google that for you" era and recognize that search is entirely broken in the modern day. We NEED human recommendations and information sharing now more than ever.
multiworld night! 6 of us are playing 6 interlinked randomized games: A Link to the Past, Hollow Knight, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, Pokemon Red/Blue, and two games of Timespinner.
Items for any game can be found in any game.

Power Up With Pride is on! This is a wonderful marathon of videogame speedruns by queer folks. A lot of my friends are in it. It's raising money for the Trevor Project all weeekend
twitch, transphobia, ableism
Twitch have added a bunch of new charities to their list, and two of them are the LGB alliance - a transphobic hate group - and Autism Speaks - an ableist hate group.
This can't be allowed to stand. Please use the link below if you have a twitch account to vote for this issue:

@GlitchedHeart I'm using Toot! and once I got it to stop actually making a toot noise, it's been good

Criticizing amoral tech dudes for the job they previously had is a long and proud tradition! https://genius.com/Tom-lehrer-wernher-von-braun-lyrics
Mystery Mystery Randomizer followed by Advent of Code

Years ago I set up a Google Alert on Natural Language Processing (mostly with the goal of turning up job postings for students in my program). Based on what that is returning these days, I need journalists to know that using a language model to write an article is not an original idea.
Also, it plainly conveys a lack of interest in truthful reporting (even when the use of the LM is revealed). In what other contexts to journalists print something followed by ... 🙃NOT🙃
I like games that you can play again and they're different the next time: such as randomizers, roguelikes, and gender expression! Twitch stream: https://twitch.tv/arborelia
