Girlfriend Dark Souls update:

She managed to get past the Anor Londo snipers on her first try, she is now officially better at the game than I was when I first started out haha.

Her fashion souls is coming along nicely too. The boar helmet has become pretty much her signature look at this point. Though she wears much better armor along with it now, and they just go so well together. 

Next boss is gonna be O&S, which she is very much afraid of. So far she has dealt pretty well with anything the game threw at her, but a 2vs1 fight is something she fears might frustrate her. I told her about being able to summon Solaire, but she wants to give it a try solo first, since she has come so far on her own. Wish her luck!

We have a new video featuring Ross tearing down the ESA's argument against the Protect our Games Act (which is essentially a more detailed breakdown of our counter-response to the ESA):

Old-school Ross fans might remember him discussing ESA in 2018: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-gN-pvdaaU&list=PLheQeINBJzWa6RmeCpWwu0KRHAidNFVTB&t=112s

“A study that claimed OpenAI’s ChatGPT can positively impact student learning has been retracted nearly one year after publication. The journal publisher, Springer Nature, cited “discrepancies” in the analysis and a lack of confidence in the conclusions—but not before the paper racked up hundreds of citations and made the rounds on social media.”

Just had a panic attack when I realized I'd put a sandwich in the toaster iron 15 minutes ago and then forgotten about it

Good news! I forgot to ever plug in the toaster iron in the first place! Multidimensional chess.

Got Overwatch running smoothly on Linux, hitting 300 FPS now. Pretty happy with that. Too bad RAM is so pricey these days, 16 GB feels a bit low when you have multiple systemd services running and do some multitasking.
