Discovering the open source remix of 1997’s Total Annihilation was a gaming highlight of 2025 for me.

The game I’m speaking of is Beyond All Reason.

Deep Rock Galactic. I was really excited to play it and I tried to like it. The colors and graphics were 10/10 awesome, I just found it to be extremely boring and repetitive.

I left Debian for Arch recently and let me tell you, you immediately feel the difference with running the latest drivers for your machine. The bleeding edge drivers have upped my frames per second significantly in videos games compared to sticking with stable releases on Debian (and Ubuntu).

With the built-in archinstall script making Arch so easy to get going, I’d only reach for anything else if I really needed the stability.

Heads up: once in a blue moon it’s on “sale” for free on Epic Games.

(Ask me how I know.)

I bought a VR headset solely to play VTOL VR; worth it!

I was confused when I saw that it was discontinued. I bought several in 2015 and still have them.
