Leftovers from a previous movie come back to haunt The Avengers, who tear themselves apart because they lack conflict resolution skills.
Another superzero movie. Only good if you’re not just into this genre, but into this series. Other movies set in this universe must be watched to appreciate some of this one.
Properly titled Captain America: Civil War
Clean Slate was updated.

A USB storage testing application.
A tiny, portable, storage device speed tester. Created specifically for USB storage.
Very very nice. Easy to use
(Yes, USB storage is that bad with small files)

I guess I should have been more strict about updating Twitch during my experimentation.
Several hardware-related tags were created and various hardware topics were updated.
I tinkered with Twitch streaming. I’ll be updating that page soonish.
I experimented with MultiBootUSB. It was a failure.

There are basic questions about live streaming’s popularity. Why bother watching someone else play a game, especially when one could play it ones self?
Much of the reasoning is the same as with Webcam modelling.

Yet another VoIP client.
A clumsy “pretends to be pretty” interface, but it seems reasonable enough. Definitely not better than Mumble for the basics.
It might be better-suited for large groups, or because it has a free server, or some other thing I haven’t discovered. I’ll keep it in my toolbox, but I don’t really like it.

Rather notable, actually.

A tool for booting multiple distributions from a USB stick. Duh.
Very easy to use. Works under Windows. Does not work under Linux.

Open-world exploration.
It’s like an even crappier-graphics Minecraft, only with nothing to do. At first I thought it was quirky and interesting, but for some reason I got lifted in the air and after a long, long, while the game ended. I redid things, and this happened the second time too.

Keep track of your alts’ missing glyphs.
Really annoying to use, but .. well, there’s nothing else.
