Keys, phone, wallet. Watch if needing to know the time is relevant on my trip.

I’m a simple man.

Tempo is beautiful. I was using it but was having some crashes so I switched to dsub2000. Not as pretty but functioned better for me. Tempo is a fantastic choice though.

Tried dual booting Ubuntu and XP back around 2006, didn’t really see the point because gaming on Windows.

2020 got a Raspberry Pi and set up Retropie which gave me a good intro to Linux. Tried to get away from big tech in 2021 and was dual booting Mint and Windows 10. Ended up spending more time in 10 because gaming.

Got an old laptop from work and it was perfect to throw Mint on because no way it was going to handle gaming. Then I set up a media server, initially with the the Pi and then bought a cheap mini for it - and ran it on Mint. I’m primarily a console gamer now so gaming is far less of a concern for me on PC. Mint everything now.

I could distro hop or at least try something else, and maybe I will at some stage. But I’m too happy with Mint/Cinnamon to bother.

Thank you for this. I’ve been under the impression that energy drinks had more than coffee for years now.

Yeah that’s my bad. You are literally correct. I was meaning more figuratively and going with MP3 as a general term rather than the format specifically.

I guess it’s no different to a CD really. Just a smaller file on a bigger storage medium.

An Evangelion AMV set to I’m Not Okay (I Promise) by My Chemical Romance. It was on YouTube and uploaded by a channel Ahhh123the8ball. But taken down for music reasons. Many years ago.

You might get lucky just using the browser.

But unless you’re using pihole or some sort of DNS based ad blocking you will likely get smashed with ads.

Cater to the audience. Being understood is more useful than being right.

Wordpress is what you are looking for. You can even create the page in a word processor of choice and just paste it in.

That will help with the backlog.

The best way is to use in a way that gives, not takes. So any ideas of advertising or promoting - forget about it. Creating a community or maintaining a Mastodon presence for support contact might be about the only thing you can do that’s not going to get you eviscerated.

Most of us are here to get away from the bullshit. Please don’t bring in more bullshit.

If I buy a record, I’m sourcing my own download. They don’t need my details to redeem a code I’ve already paid for.

Stickerbrush Symphony from Donkey Kong Country 2

Fairphone 4. Ubuntu Touch is supported at a manufacturer level, it supports Postmarket OS, easy user serviceable, SD card slot (which apparently is rare now). No headphone jack but that’s about the only downside. I’m running one with Calyx and while it is a little older of a phone - it’s perfectly fine.

It’s not about being better. It’s different.

You’ve come here asking for advice. Myself and others have given you some. It’s up to you to take what you find useful and disregard what you don’t. None of us know the full situation.

Let us know what you end up doing and how it goes though, I’m interested and I’m sure at least a few others would be as well.

A lot of people need to be right all the time, even if it is to their own detriment. Therefore they would see apologising as losing.

Social cohesion is quite important and I believe something that is becoming a little undervalued. Especially in a workplace. While of course if is important to stick to your principles, it’s not that important to be right in a lot of social situations.

Relationships aren’t linear progression. Sometimes you move forward, sometimes you move backwards. Sometimes you can move forward by moving backwards. An apology rarely hurts in the grand scheme of things.

However I would think about what you’re saying. And what I’m about to say carries the lack of context from not knowing any more than what you posted.

You weren’t listening and it was mostly your fault (your words). She didn’t trigger you. And telling her she triggered you will probably not go well. You reacted to her in a way you are now regretting. You need to take responsibility for that and that is likely what you are apologising for.

The conversation about things being fair, save it for later. Put a lot more thought into it.

Game Dev Story was a lot of fun.

He was plenty famous before the meme.

I came across in the big Reddit migration and while I loved the idea, it felt like every third post was about the meta or Reddit. I ended up dropping all social media. A few months ago I started passively reading Reddit again and as many predicted, the whole vibe is just off. So I began checking back here a bit and it’s a bit closer to what I want now. It feels like there is a bit less going on than back then, and I’m totally okay with that.

Be active and be what you want to see. This is a community driven system and you will get a lot more out of a community by participating over just observing.
