  • Kept my parents' desktop running for 14 years with Debian, XFCE, and the occasional hardware replacement. Maybe a bit of a PC of Theseus scenario but it worked pretty great.

  • MUSHA has this with the orb circle shield/weapon thing (I never learned the name). I used to think this was bad game design but even if it was an accident it's interesting trying to bend your way around a game to keep from picking up stuff you dont want.

  • Organic Maps works really well and uses OSM, though searching for business names is kind of wonky. also, GMaps WV is a wrapper around the web interface for Google Maps that works pretty well.

  • Redlib is a handy accountless frontend for reddit that still works

  • Third party app without an account maybe? Freetube on the desktop and newpipe on the phone is what I like to use. There's stuff like grayjay, tubearchivist, and pinchflat as well. Or just go straight yt-dlp.

  • back in the dial-up and bbs days, i kept plenty of floppy disks (and later CDs) with my favorite media on them to play when i visited friends. in more recent history i have placed my digital media backups on drives to play at friends' houses. it's nice to be offline now and then.

    while not technically sneakernet, we did have a piratebox set up at an office that i leased for backing up media collectively.

  • All my homies hate Nintendo.

  • What about Extraneum? It's cute as a button and very chill with plenty of things to shoot. It feels a bit like a modern wolfenstein since there aren't any stairs. Gunplay feels nice and the secrets are rewarding. Plus between levels there are funny data discs to read.

  • this is absolutely incredible. thank you so much!

  • I have been looking for something like this for ages. Wish it could be integrated into freetube and newpipe. Thanks for sharing!

  • This is lovely

  • I'm out of the loop. What happened to libgen?

  • Is it dead or complete? For my purposes, it doesn't need any changes.

  • Many have mentioned org-mode. I used it for years but have moved on to todo.txt and markdown. I use syncthing to keep notes up to date on my phone and computer. I edit with whatever is available on my desktop and I use markor notes on my phone.

    I think this setup only lacks the recurring tasks option. I think org-mode can do that but I use my calendar for that.

    This is a highly personal topic so I'd suggest trying as many things as you can. Something will stick eventually.

  • "secure" boot, the industry standard for ensuring that devices don't run software other than Windows during the bootup process

    FTFY

  • It burns

  • Newpipe appears to be working

  • This was my experience on the Xbox. Absolutely loved the campaign. Could not get a feel for how to survive mp after a few hours. There was a prolonged respawn and die nearly immediately loop. I uninstalled it after I got what I could from the campaign.
