Hahaha it's verking! I'm playing #WoW on my #Switch! Really smooth experience, actually.

I feel like this is turning into a #WoW Forever review blog post, but: Played again last night with the gamepad support turned on. Worked great. Was nice to just sit back on the couch and quest away. Since my gaming PC runs Sunshine for LAN streaming, I might try playing WoW from my jailbroken Nintendo Switch 1 that runs Moonlight

Also, I haven't really liked being social in WoW for a very long time. Whenever I've played, it's as a solo RPG that happens to have spicy NPCs jumping around. But, playing WoW Forever last night, I actually had some fun getting a random party invite with some strangers to steamroll through a bunch of newbie quests. They weren't jerks and even had fun spamming some emotes and half-assed RP chat

I guess the one saving grace, as I'm rifling through all my containers, none of them has a public-facing ssh port and nearly none of them have ssh at all

sweet merciful fuck "so openssh on musl linux (alpine, openwrt, buildroot, yocto, and a lot of the docker images you've pulled) has had a little problem since 2016. accounts that should never take a password at all (root, your key-only deploy user, ldap users, the default user on alpine's aws and azure images) take any password longer than 256 characters." https://sshhole.com/

Also a thing I forgot I really liked in #WoW: wandering around as a mage and randomly buffing everyone. I might have to try levelling a priest and getting back into healing

The gamepad mode in WoW Forever is kinda neat, but still rather buggy. Worked for most of what I was doing with questing and wandering around, didn't work for much of anything else like bag management or crafting. Looked like it should have worked, but things just didn't do the thing

I do think it's kinda neat that my troll mage can use his full name, Paytol Underbridge, after 20 years of informality

holy crap, now my tiktok timeline is filling up with home shawarma recipes and I'm invested

Like, since moving away from Michigan, the taken-for-granted superb middle eastern food thanks to proximity to Dearborn is one of the few things I'd fly back for

agh, since apparently Michigan is now under shawarma law, I keep seeing folks post delicious shawarma with chicken and toum and pickles. I'm especially weak to the ones where they wrap up the pita and toss it onto a flat top to toast for a bit. There was a place in Birmingham, MI in 1997 - Pita Cafe - that had those crispy shawarma and turkish coffee. I can taste it to this day I feel like we've yet to find suitable shawarma in oregon. Where is it? Tell me of your favorite shawarma. I need it
