"Also known as Pre-Odyssey: Odysseus, Penelope & her Ducks.

Princess Helen of Sparta is the most beautiful woman in the world...

But this isn’t about her.

Enter Penelope, Helen’s less popular cousin.

While staying at her uncle's palace, she encounters one of Helen's supposed suitors, the notorious 'trickster king', Odysseus.

However, this Spartan princess is also notorious in her own right...

... As the favorite daughter of Prince Icarius?

No, not that one.

I mean, as the notorious 'duck girl'."

This is a commercial game by Anta! You can buy it from itch.io here or from Steam here.

My modded Spotify isn't working anymore so I had to download my entire library -_-

Does anyone know a good app (Android) to automatically edit metadata of songs?

Any recommendations for Linux or Mac? (Or Windows if it can be ran through WINE)

Is Wormzi a thing in CC? If so, how’d N and V take it?

Oh, Wormzi is absolutely going to be a thing - it isn't called "The Crawling Chaos" just for the Lovecraft reference ;)

It's not going to be just Uzi either - there's going to be so many worms in here. Worms for days.

As for how everyone reacts:

At the start of the story (which picks up about three-ish months after the show, for context), the Dapper Trio all know that Uzi has been having corporeal instability issues, and have been trying to help her work through it/figure out what's causing them and how to stop it (Uzi discovering the inefficiencies in N and V's designs and deciding to do something about it is an outgrowth of this). Critically though, no one knows Uzi can become a worm yet, including Uzi herself - she suspects she can do that, but isn't really keen on testing those boundaries and is mostly just trying to figure out why she randomly glitches out and explodes into a cluster of crab claws and peering camera eyes sometimes.

Then some Shenanigans happen and it becomes pretty clear that she's going to need to start testing those boundaries in order to get a handle on her new robo-divinity and prevent said shenanigans from happening again. It's all very "repression is not the solution you think it is."

N takes this in stride pretty much instantly - this is just another aspect of Uzi's eldritch space magic, and come android hell or high water, they're going to figure it out together. Boy is nothing if not committed. Plus, well... he'd be lying if he said he didn't think Uzi having the power to turn into an eldritch centipedal machine god was kind of hot.

After all: we are, as a fandom, united by the sacred wisdom that N would still love Uzi if she was a worm (and vice versa).

V, in contrast, is more paranoid. She's terrified that something will go wrong and either the Solver remnant/ghost/thing in Uzi's mind will take over, or worse, in trying to contain that remnant, Uzi will go somewhere she can't come back from and become something even worse than the original Absolute Solver (an Uzi without any morals, driven by nothing but all-consuming hunger - terrifying). But, critically, as difficult as it is for her V's actually going try to voice her concerns this time instead of trying to gaslight gatekeep girlboss her way through things. She's let herself be ruled by her fear before, and it emphatically did not end well, and she's learned from that. She cares about these goobers more than she'll ever admit trusts N and Uzi, and she's going to stick with them and help out in her own way. And probably complain about it when they do something dumb or remind Uzi to eat again - but hey, someone has to be the sensible one in this polycule found family. If nothing else, she can keep Uzi from trying to experiment with eldritch monster transformations inside the bunker.

Uzi, for her part, agrees with V's paranoia (now that V is actually trying to explain herself). As rad as having a thousand extra arms and a bunch of holoprojector eyes can be, this is something she really would rather have left in a box and not touched ever. Unfortunately, she can't just leave it in a box, and Uzi "Godeater" Doorman isn't one to back down from a challenge. She's been presented with a new problem, and she's going to solve it, one way or another.

Plus, there's a surprising number of fringe benefits: among other things, it turns out eldritch machine god is actually surprisingly comfortable to sleep on (if you're a robot, anyway).

ever notice how the people who will be like "eww linux haha" are just bullying a group of mostly autistic people

but it's okay because they're stereotypically men and disabled men get no rights i guess

like yes cis male linux-fans can be annoying (often in an autism way btw) but as someone who has spent years among them they are on average less sexist than your average man. also a lot of us linux users are genderqueer poople. the trans women in STEM you've heard about? most of them are linux users as well, if they don't use unix or more obscure systems.

the techbros you hate? they don't use linux, they use windows and mac. linux is overwhelmingly non-commercial, and techbros are hyper-neoliberal. most of linux is FOSS (free & open source software)

linux comes from the same ideological corner as firefox. if you think firefox is great but think linux is nothing more than a funny joke you need to look in the fucking mirror. and at your own computer because if you use windows you'll have a lot of anti-features that you take for granted. if you made the switch to linux it would be like exhaling the breath you didn't know you were holding for years. not saying that you have to, just, most people don't even consider making their own lives easier. you know?

once cybernetics and androids and shit become cheap enough for the average person to buy/make the amount of debates over which software is best for your robot gf or robot arm or whatever is going to increase exponentially.

we're still having debates over whether or not systemd or runit is better or how whether or not btrfs is better than ext4, imagine what it's going to be like when have debates over whether armProtocall3 or movArm is the better system for controlling what your hands are doing

This also includes most home arcades.. from what I know they tend to run either on Armbian Linux or Android

can you believe Oracle hands out these compute instances for free with 4 cores and 24gb of ram

The next logical step I think is to mount my Google drive with rsync and abuse that storage space to get around my 200gb Oracle storage limit

If you hate capitalism, or just really like free stuff that's cool, check this out:

Have any of your gotten frustrated by Google's Play store? If so, check out F-Droid

It's a store that has open source apps which are described honestly by their creators because they're not trying to sell you something. It actually lists "anti-features" of apps right after the "features" list so you know all the flaws too.

I found the Saber notes app on it, which is actually also on Google Play but is drowned out there by all the other more annoying less functional apps.

Can anyone recommend a calendar app for windows, linux AND android??

Bonus point if it tells you the time between two events on the same day (shovel does that but the android app is a mess)
