London internet connections have stopped working again

This affected me at at inconvenient time. I don't really have a good choice when it comes to fibre internet though so I can't necessarily see any options other then to accept it and move on.

Always felt interested in doing this one day but decided I would be too socially awkward to make it worth it.

Piccadilly Squirrel Incident

Did the squirrel make it out OK?

There are several things I was doing in X-Org that I really don't have the capacity to figure out in Wayland. One of them was customizing touch pad shortcuts, I used to like having 3 figure swipe commands that worked like keyboard shortcuts. The other was my KVM programs like Barrier seems unable to work in Wayland.

I hope for simple solutions to these problems in the future.

This was honestly my last straw with AEW. I had felt for awhile that the variety early AEW had (Young Bucks indie, Lucha bros Lucha Libre, Omega DDT/NJPW influence, Mox's hardcore, Jericho/Cody's WWE influence) was done with a single unified vision, with everyone putting ego's aside to make something bigger then the sum of it's parts. An AEW roster that was so respectful that Brodie Lee's illness was never leaked to the press.

I honestly can't say that the reactionary AEW has me gripped like the early AEW that was interested in long form storytelling. And one with a roster so divided you can feel dissension within the roster. I don't want backstage drama to be the basis of ongoing storytelling, that's not an interesting story. I want to see the show working like a well oiled machine. It honestly makes me uncomfortable watching AEW as it is currently.

I thought AEW purpose was to change the wrestling industry not succumb to it.

It is misleading. It is 30% of the entire revenue of the game. And it is objective whether Valve deserves 30% of that revenue. It's also true that games aren't locked to the Steam platform and can absolutely make money outside of Valve's influence. History has shown though that it is less profitable then being inside the Steam ecosystem.

The efficiency is doing it so effectively that on an open platform competitors can create there own store, pay for AAA games to appear on their store, take the smallest of pay cuts, pass it on to the consumer, and still have customers prefer to pay more to be in the Steam ecosystem. I'm against monopolies but Valve's is absolutely efficient.

That has always been up in the air, certain functions of the building and it's link to the building has been designated a secret. It's not like the building itself is inconspicuous though.

Any chance to include a theme based on the "Dracula" colour scheme?
