My most used distro in the past few years is CachyOS.

Recently swapped to Bazzite because I got tired of the papercuts of running Arch. I also wanted to move to one of the official supported Distros that is supported by my laptop in case I ever need to make a support ticket.

Go with Heroic Games launcher. It works pretty simply without fuss for gog games in my experience.

It is released on August 1st for US market, it would be shipping then.

Right when I decide to buy a Fairphone 6, welp, guess I’m keeping my current phone till the the tariffs drop.

Uppies!

Steam OS on Steam Deck. Fedora on Framework13 cause reliability. Garuda Mokka on Framework16 cause pretty and it just works.

May move from Garuda back to OpenSuSE Tumbleweed or CachyOS at some point.

It’s a tossup I think if Epstein killed himself. He was looking at a very unpleasant rest of his life. it makes sense for someone to commit suicide in that type of situation. It also makes sense for those in power to want him silenced. We’ll likely never know for sure.

Taking him off suicide watch is also hard to tell between malice and incompetence.

I’m still using Gmail, mostly cause of how much of a hassle it is to change to a new email address. Shit like this is really making me find motivation to switch.

They do come out with good hardware now and then. Some of their higher end laser printers are reviewed well. At my job we have an HP laser printer that is older than the store that is still chugging along just fine while being used every day.

Their overall quality is so poor though that it is hard to trust anything they put out.

More consumer linux devices are good though.

I’d definitely take one for free.

Immediately sell it to carmax or carvana or wherever.

The money from even one of the older ones would do me a lot of good even with the trade in value of all teslas cratering right now.

I run both on my unraid NAS. I use plex for streaming to my phone over cell data. I use jellyfin for streaming to my laptops and TV.

Plex tends to break every once and a while though. Not often, but it happens enough that I’m replacing it with just having my music on a DAP that is synced with Syncthing.

I also use the comic viewer function of jellyfin.

Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts and Sword of the Stars 2.

part of Sword of the stars 2 is even now it sometimes gets so laggy that you can’t finish a game. You just at some point declare that you’ve snowballed enough and can’t be beat anymore.

Hundreds of hours.

Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts is at least getting better now that the devs have abandoned it and modders are taking over.

It is because Russia is allied with North Korea.

Doing this helps out Russia. That’s the entire point of this move.

It’s a game I’m definitely looking forward to after I get a gpu upgrade for my laptop. A 7700s just doesn’t cut it.

Started playing it, decided to wait for later.

Assigned Cop At Birth.

“I’m sorry ma’am… it’s a cop”

Businesses that give away free drinks and whatnot to cops tend to have more cops around, and if a place is known to have more cops around they tend to get stolen from less.

Legal small bribes. It is why places like Speedway have a button for free police beverage. They want cops to stop by on their breaks so people regularly see cop cars in the parking lot.

Tofu.

Pressing the water out, marinating for hours, then cooking properly so it’s delicious and not a rubbery mess is just too much hassle.

Going into debt running Tumbleweed.

I have a 16 and a 13, I thought I’d give away the 13 when I got the 16 but I keep using the 13 as well cause of how portable it is. Lot nicer to lounge about with the 13 than the 16.

I might get the 12 to replace my 13 and use it for drawing practice and web browsing. Performance wise it’d be a downgrade from my 1280p but I don’t really need the performance.

They’re also using an older cpu in these and only one stick of ram to run costs down. It is a low tier 13th gen intel.
