Quit smoking.

Apart from that, it's been a clusterfuck.

my 6 months old nephew wailing scream. Once I left the phone on my desk and walked to the copier. The phone started wailing. My desk buddy knew what that scream meant, and brought me the phone, thus filling the whole office with baby screams.

Also powerwasher game, satisfying

We did in the past. He still has one (that he ignores ofc). He pretty much claims our bed these days.

Most of EU don't pay for sms either

I've been told that zerotier is even better. Haven't tried it myself (it looks more complicated to selfhost) but the guy suggesting it knows waaaaay more than me on these things. Just if you want to look into another option.

For what it's worth (from a random guy on the internet) selt-hosting tailscale is quite easy! 🙂

I'm self hosting headscale (foss implementation of tailscale control server) for this scenario. Works great!

I'm saving this and I'm going to use it so much

I had a 2cv. I still miss it. I don't miss slack

Gentoo. Good idea on paper, takes a lot of time to get ready for arguable benefits

I sometimes forget that paid leave is not an universal right. I'm truly sorry you have to choose between money and a day off.

I always say, an OS is a tool, not a religion. I use Linux at home 98% of the time because it fits what I need to do and it's snappier than Windows on my hardware and gives me more control, or maybe I know better how to do certain things in Linux nowadays that I've left Windows mostly behind. I use Windows at work because that's what dictated, and also because MS Visio is only on Windows (I could use MacOS with Omnigraffle, but Macs are not available at my pay grade. Whatever). They pay me to work and be productive, and this means using Outlook/Teams, AD SSO integration with Edge, all the VPNs/network control/DLP agents. And luckily now I can use Linux subsystem in Windows, so I can work on the cli when I need to do something fancy. They don't pay me to spend hours trying to find a way to work with their systems other than what's supported.

On the topic at hand (bootloader issues). Never had a problem personally, but Iast time I did proper dual booting (on the same drive) was with Windows8.1. Now I have different drives, with the bios configured to boot from the drive with Linux. If I want to boot on Windows 10 I actually have to change the boot sequence. And even then there is grub (from an old dual boot setup).

sorry for late reply. So far is great. I can feed it custom paths on my NAS and it doesn't touch the pictures/import them/etc. (which was the main requirement for me). It just works with what you feed it. Face recognition is good. Search is good. The 3rd party app (uhuru photos) is not great, but still under development. But the mobile interface works anyway well enough.

oh wow, didn't know about that. I did play TA a lot (I mean, I still play it sometimes, big bertha feels sooo good!). But yes, the idea behind them is pretty much the same as TA

it's about the single player storyline. It feels like BAR is more geared towards online/multiplayer, while zero-k has a proper full single player campaign. Don't get me wrong, I played with BAR for quite some time and it's still a great game, I just "clicked" better with zero-k.

I have been using opnsense on a very cheap celeron nuc for a few years, very happy with it

Apart some of the already mentioned (mindustry, 0ad, beyond all reasons, zero-k), also minetest (minecraft), destination sol.

l've tried hege wars (worms clone) but found it meh. Sometimes supertux.

You shold look into zero-k as well. I started out with BAR but found out zero-k more engaging

I did not know of that sketch, thanks! I don't know if it's staged or not (I hope it was because he was too aggressive IMO), but I would have replied "your mom".
