It’s a cool concept, but just seems short of what I expected. Seems the majority of good stuff is much much further down the line in it. I’d say Deep Rock is better option for this kind of game. Doing missions and fighting hoards of bugs.

Helldivers 2. I just found it boring. I’m waiting still for my refund, I only haf about 1.5 hours in it. But only 45 minutes of gameplay. I managed to only get a few matches and they were very dry.

Well, I knew my brother was getting a new phone soon anyways so getting notified his device changed wasn’t a surprise. Otherwise, getting notified hia device changed without that knowledge may have triggered me to contact him elsewhere to ask if he did. Signal is mostly going to be conversations between close/trusted individuals. It doesn’t tell you what they changed to, the message basically tells you that if this person didn’t legitimately change devices then it might be a bad actor.

I knew my brother got a new phone because signal told me their usual device had changed.

My favorite shoes are the Red Wing Iron Ranger’s. I worked for them for 3 years and when I left I was gifted my second pair. They’re great shoes in everyway. I only wish they had an 8 inch version available in the states. They had one back then in Europe, but nothing stateside. My two sets and the pile of other shoes I got when I worked there have been going strong some years on so I haven’t boot shopped in a while, maybe they finally took my advice and did it.

Hulu? I use ublock on hulu and have no issues.

I already wasted highschool and college there. I’m not spending my adult years there too.

Always found it offputting how often I hear about people’s step parents being somehow worse than their biological parent, and their biological parent being totally cool with it.

Not saying that’s your situation. Just something I thought about. Like my friend growing up had a cool mom and dad, but his step dad was the biggest asshole ever. And his mom was totally cool with it. Guy tried to break my ps3 cause we were playing COD and he had an unspoken rule of no M rated games in the house. And all the times he called me homophobic slurs, even though I’m not gay. His mom was great though, so it made no sense.

Yeah, then you’re homeless.

Really what got me to learn to use the terminal more was downloading systems without tons of gui apps. Most base systems will be like that. In general my only gui apps are a file browser, web browser, and audio tools. Debian, arch, gentoo, nix. Avoid stuff like mint or endeavour if you want to force yourself into learning the terminal. The more you use it, the better you’ll get. Using gui apps isn’t bad, sometimes it just works better for specific actions. But knowing how to use the terminal helps for when nothing else works.

I think for me, it takes around 45 minutes to do a full system update when I run it. I usually run it every 3 days or so.

Ow. I didn’t use gentoo until I had good enough hardware that updates wouldn’t take 2 days to finish. I used arch or freebsd when I only had a laptop available.

Flex your makeopts jobs amount. I’ve got 30.

Love me firefox
Love me openrc
Love me TTY and DWM
Love me Gentoo

I donate to Gentoo every once in a while so I don’t have to live this life.

A coworker of mine was an computer engineer in the early 2000s, but is now a warehouse director. She told me she helped her son build a new pc but it was having heating issues. I asked about fans and she said it only had 2 intake on the front with no exhaust. Told her a local shop that has cheaply priced good fans. She said computers have changed a lot in 20 years. I helped in about a week ago with choosing storage blocks, had no clue nvme even existed.

I was using Firefox then swapped to mull. Both are good, i just figured I’d try something different and saw mull on fdroid.

I’ve been using Qobuz. Sure it’s still paid, but I can buy downloads for any of the music on there. Same with Bandcamp. I’ve been buying one album every paycheck and putting them on my storage blocks, then putting them on my media player and phone. I support my favorite bands, and get to keep something in return. On top of all this, I hunt down CDs. I’ve got a massive physical music collection, and it’s nice.

John’s out here swingin meat.
