Is this my "main" presence or am I still on shellsharks.social? Fair question. The answer is, yes! This is a <a href="https://malici.ous.computer/tags/gotosocial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GoToSocial</span></a> instance, on a new fun, shiny, vanity domain. If it works out, I might end up moving all my activity over here and shutting down the Mastodon instance I have at shellsharks.social. Until then, I'm operating out of both spaces. This also means that for now, I haven't migrated my followers (or followed accounts) over here, so don't be offended if I haven't followed you back yet! I don't want to knock this fairly low-spec'ed instance over so I'm taking it slow with how I am using it.</p><p>Why am I doing this? Well for one main reason really, I wanted an instance where I could post more than 500 characters at a time. GtS gives me that, and much more. Bonus points for A. being less resource intensive than Mastodon (so cheaper to run), B. more customizable and C. I could get an even more ridiculous vanity domain.</p><p>So don't be surprised to see a lot more from this account than my usual <span class="h-card"><a href="https://shellsharks.social/@shellsharks" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>shellsharks</span></a></span> account. If you'd like, you can follow me here for now. No worries either way.</p><p>See y'all around Fedi!</p>

Our mission: scan asteroids and get out alive. I think there were about a dozen players trying to hold the ship together while aliens fired missiles and teleported in. Designer Jeff Siadek was on hand, though he didn’t run this particular game. I played an engineer and spent my time pumping engine power to guns. I also shot a bug that teleported in. <a href="https://gamepad.club/tags/OriginsGameFair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OriginsGameFair</span></a></p>

Миша<p>Looking for suggestions for a multi-monitor home office setup. Currently I have two 34" ultra-wide curved monitors sitting side by side, but they're both connected to different boxes, one work, one personal. I'd like to augment my work setup with either another monitor, or maybe even two, but I'm not sure what size(s) to go with or how to mount them with my current desk setup so that they're actually usable without having to crank my head.</p><p>I was thinking a 24" on the side, positioned vertically for coding, but wasn't sure if I should add another 34" with some kind of adjustable arm mount and maybe "stack" it on top of the current 34"? Does it make more sense to go smaller if "stacking"? My 34"s are pretty old at this point, too (3440x1440), so I'm open to potentially replacing and going all new to get better displays and the right size to work for my desk.</p><p>Or maybe it's time to downsize for my personal system? I'm open to any and all ideas and suggestions, especially if you've got pics to help me visualize.</p><p>Thanks!! <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/homeoffice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homeoffice</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/battlestation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>battlestation</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/battlestations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>battlestations</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/battlestationpics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>battlestationpics</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/wfh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wfh</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/wfhsetup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wfhsetup</span></a></p>
