I stream from Linux. I don't stream anything about Linux, I just happen to stream while also using Linux.. that being said it usually ends up being a handful of dedicated viewers so not super big or anything, but it's still fun. :) OBS works just fine, game capture works, everything just seems to work!

I thought it sounded pretty silly, too. I gave the free trial a shot and for technical searches it was the best I had seen by far. Being able to lower certain sites and raise other sites makes it much easier to filter through shitty results like blog posts and stuff. I pay for it now and it's worth it to me just for the time savings on technical searches. It definitely is still pretty far behind for things like local business info and stuff, but as a general purpose search engine it's been extremely good for me.

Beksinski has always been my favorite. I love seeing his work pop up every now and again!

I definitely struggle a lot with importing certain albums and matching releases. If the album is in another language then definitely forget about it. I'm not really sure what the deal is. It works maybe 95% of the time but that 5% is a colossal pain in the ass.

Blockchain and cryptocurrencies are pretty cool from just a technology perspective. At university I studied a lot of math and cryptography and that happened to be at the same time that Bitcoin became a thing. It could have some real applications, but scammers and cryptobros ruined it for everyone and now I can't even say I find crypto (meaning cryptography) cool without seeming like an asshat.

No great farming options, especially for BLU this time around..

P1N with 1 tank and 7 DPS at ilvl 660 is probably going to be the fastest for raw grinding.

I'm just going to do Aglaia/Euphrosyne to stockpile coins for 6.5, but Euphrosyne is still locked to one per week unfortunately..

Interesting outfit for a reward..

This opener will work in essentially all situations. There are technically ways to get slightly more potency by doing some cursed things and using a different opener each minute, but those strats are just theoretical and any movement or fight mechanics would disrupt them. Other things to consider would be Swiftcasted Wild Rage in the opener instead of Winged Reprobation if you're doing a fight where you would have Wild Rage for Revenge Blasting or something.

It's true forever. The Fibonacci sequence used in this way converges on the golden ratio, which is close to the conversion of km and mi.

6.45 is going to have our next Criterion dungeon. The last time around we had some kind of interesting mechanics, so I'm looking forward to the next one. Any thoughts on stuff we might see?

Oh yeah, I'd like to see an update on this. The first time it just kind of seemed like basic lighting changes but texture revamps would be awesome.

Ugh yeah chat bubbles feel like they'd be so trivial to implement and they really do help with immersion.

I think historically that an expansion name and teaser trailer come from the first Fan Fest of the year, but I'm not 100% sure.. what sorts of announcements do you want to see?

I usually play healer so I get comms by default. To try to restore some amount of balance I always give my comm to whichever DPS had the least upsetting performance. However, if Limit Break is never used the entire time and I cast it on the last boss as the healer then I give it to the tank, instead. :)

Yeah Relay was my preferred app and I'm super bummed it's staying with Reddit. I'm using Liftoff which has some issues but works well. I'm looking forward to the first 1.0 releases of various apps still.
