… The consequence of being put in a for-profit slavery prison?
As someone in the US - I have absolutely zero recognition of the town of Oregon City. All I know about the Oregon trail is a bunch of people died from starvation and dysentery
I still use a c to audio adapter most of the time when I’m out and about. My wired earbuds don’t need to charge, have much better sound quality than wireless, and if one side falls out of my ear it just swings down instead of falling into the dirt/water/snow. As far as I’m concerned the only benefit of wireless is that they can’t catch on anything, and that’s more a skill issue than anything imo
If it helps, the dryer in our apartment makes a super loud buzzing for 10 seconds twice whenever it finishes unless you twist the dial to stop it early. And by loud, I mean you hear it from your neighboring apartments too. And it’s not a bug, we checked. It’s a feature.
Even incels can vote for Kamala
Oh my bad - stein was actually on the ballot in 38 states so she could’ve won if she won almost all of them, but the chances of that are low enough to not even hope it could’ve worked.
A vote for Stein this year was a vote for Trump. Vote green in your local and state elections to get support growing, don’t vote for them for president when they aren’t even on enough ballots to win and the alternative is a literal hitler-worshipper.
Edit - Stein was actually on the ballot in 38 states so she technically could’ve won. I was thinking of Claudia De la Cruz and the PSL party - I have the same sentiment with them this election. These two divided the left and only benefited Trump. Vote green or PSL in your local elections and grow support for the non-democrat left.
I pay for music streaming on Tidal. I have a pretty big library of music from attempts to get away from streaming (and keep it up on Soulseek), but I use curated playlists too much to get away from streaming
There is also TempleOS, with a fork of C called Holy C built specifically for better integration with it
Warning - do not make your creative/fun hobby the one that also makes you money. I’ve met several people who were into woodworking as a hobby, started doing it on commission for family, friends, referrals, etc, and it quickly became a job rather than a fun hobby. The timelines and demands that come with doing commissions killed it for them, they still occasionally do woodworking as gifts/favors, but very explicitly just for family and close friends without timelines, and only charge for materials
I haven’t seen anything bad about them (haven’t been looking though). I’ve been using the futo keyboard and like it so far, the swipe isn’t great but they’re crowdsourcing the training so I have high hopes
It sounds like a barebones beef stroganoff
I got the game and some small ship bundle a year or two ago for like $20. It was a pretty fun game for the cost, but I honestly wouldn’t pay more than $30 for it. It’s buggy, runs like hot garbage even on my 3080 ti, and it’s very much a mile wide inch deep content wise from what I remember
Nope, haven’t done anything harder than ibuprofen tbh, never had a desire to try. I do dream visually though
I have complete aphantasia, I can’t even visualize a ball or table, or anything else - never have been able to, I see absolutely nothing when I close my eyes and can’t visualize or see things in my head at all except when dresming. Same for my Dad. He can apparently visualize an extremely tiny amount (like the night sky but just black + stars, etc) when he’s high on thc gummies. I’ve never been high so idk if it works for me.
It took me 24 years to realize that people actually can actually see images in their head when they think about something or intentionally imagine it. I always thought that phrases like “picture it in your head” or “see in your head what it will look like” were just phrases, not that people actually can see things when they think about it.
Just a warning, the big factorio 2.0 update and space age dlc are coming out on October 21st. My supervisor is taking the whole week off for it
I’ve always been a sucker for Terraria and Starbound when I want to build, factorio for automation, dwarf fortress for planning/management, and cataclysm dark days ahead for survival (not sure if it counts since it’s free and open source - do NOT buy it on steam).
I greatly prefer games with a lot of mechanics that I can get lost in over ones that look really good with minimal functionality which is too common nowadays imo… I also like art styles of these games a lot
Multi monitor issues are purely on your distro - and are pretty easy to fix. At least for me on arch and bspwm (I haven’t touched a Debian based install or full DE in years), setup was as easy as making my randr script run when my WM starts up, I imagine it’s even easier with a full DE.
For 2.5 gb/s internet… I’ve never run into any problems or even had to configure anything. Fresh barebones arch install with lan, 2.5 gb/s out of the box. If you’re getting less (my guess is 1 gb/s?) it’s almost certainly a hardware issue (motherboard/network card is only 1 gb/s, port on router and/or switch is 1 gb/s, etc)
If you’re having trouble with something, I highly recommend searching for the problem after checking a relevant wiki (archwiki is an awesome resource if you’re on arch). If you’re having issues you can’t find problems to, feel free to shoot me a message and I’ll try to help you out. I’m no expert, but I’ve been exclusively on Linux for 3 years (since I graduated and no longer was required to be on windows at all) and haven’t run into any issues that I didn’t find a relatively easy fix for)
Lutris is awesome.
Open source games, games with their own launcher, games on steam, gog, etc are all in it. Can pick to run things natively on Linux, use proton (pick your version or just use latest), wine, or choose from others, and it does it seamlessly. For games you already have installed on steam, you don’t need to reinstall them, it finds them and makes them runnable from within lutris once you connect your steam account, you can also install games that you own on any of your connected launchers, and browse/download your undownloaded games from them
Examples for some of the stuff I have all in it now:
Catacyslm: DDA catapult launcher (free and open source game - highly recommend you try it out. Takes some getting used to, but there isn’t much you can’t do. Also, make sure you get cataclysm-tiles or use a launcher. ASCII is pure, but hard to get used to. Also, DO NOT buy it on steam.)
All of my installed steam games
Cyberpunk 2077 and the witcher 3 via gog
FFXIV (the official launcher, not steam)
Vintage story (open source but not free - highly recommend if you like open world survival crafting games with a big emphasis on survival)
I have linkwarden (I mainly save recipes tbh) and I like it a lot. There’s some parts of the ui that could be better, but overall it’s easy to setup and use and pretty intuitive
