  • I'm trying to get back into Elden Ring, but I forgot how late I was into the game when I stopped playing last time, so I'm getting my ass handed to me. But the DLC trailer got my hyped to play again, and I never finished my first playthrough, so I have to beat the game. I am also working on Animal Crossing: New Leaf on my 3DS. No idea what I'm doing, but I'll take the challenge.

    I may also load up Tears of the Kingdom on my Steam Deck if I feel so inclined this week.

  • Not the original commenter, but Nobara is a great distro if gaming is your focus. It’s tweaked specifically for that purpose and has built up a strong community. I just hate that they use Discord for support.

    Switching DEs can get messy in my experience with leftover packages and such. It’s best, in my opinion, to experiment in VMs and go from there, then go with a clean install when you make your choice. That’s what I did with KDE.

  • Apple Health’s reminders have been a godsend, especially the annoying as fuck alert if you don’t log your medication within half an hour of your scheduled time. I never found pill organizers helpful, but I hope this one works for you.

  • Medication, proper sleep, strict routine, writing things down in my pocket notebook as I think of them. I'm trying to incorporate exercise, as well, but that's a slow and arduous process that's not going so well. I've lowered my caffeine intake.

  • I’m not normally one to generalize because I’m content to let people do what they want so long as they don’t bother others, but modern Christianity calls its adherents to go out and pester people at best.

  • Good to know! I should have clarified in my comment, I think the language they used the last time I checked was basically something like, "We no longer guarantee that we'll support these devices once they go EOL from Google." I don't recall anything about extended support, so that's awesome!

  • I ran GrapheneOS (and CalyxOS) on a Pixel 5 for a while and quite liked the experience. It's remarkably polished and get's the job done quite well for the most part, with some caveats like you mentioned. The biggest bummer is when Google EOLs the devices, so the Graphene team also has to (last I checked). So, I installed /e/OS on my P5 and stuck it in a drawer.

    The ROM has come a long way in recent years, and I'm glad that Android Auto works now. (Now that I have a car that has AA/CarPlay functionality!) Good on you for making the plunge and I hope it continues to work out well for you. I am not surprised that your NFC car key doesn't work, based on what I know about the trusted key system on Android when Google announced it not too long ago. That may be hard to find a workaround for, but I am not a developer by any means, so who knows!

  • I use LMDE on an XPS 13 9360 and it is a rock solid. I adore this distro, especially on older hardware. If I ever switch away from my MacBook Pro, LMDE is going to be my daily driver. (And I'm strongly considering a Framework 13 AMD as my next laptop when it comes time to upgrade.)

    LMDE squad, unite!

  • Both. I prefer digital generally because I'm a digital hoarder and I love seeing my Calibre library get bigger and carrying my Kobo around, but there's something satisfying about seeing my bookmark make steady progress through a physical book (slowly; I'm a slow reader).
