I've been playing "will I be able to get Genshin Impact running in Linux in a way that is comfortable for me?"
(AAGL runs it, but I've only managed to get it full-screen or 1920x1080 in a borderless window pinned in the center of my screen. I'd like to drag that 1920x1080 window down close to the lower-right corner, but can't figure out how to move it or get it running with normal draggablr window borders). Arch+xorg+kde+nvidia. Couldn't get it to install either Lutris and haven't tried other launchers.
Yes, thank you. I saw you mention bridging matrix to other services in another comment. I'm definitely intrigued and will investigate that. As for Mastodon, I've been wanting to find the time to spin up my own server for that one. I'll definitely be getting deeper into the fediverse, but I also need outside sources of news, preferably not curated by antagonistic algorithms like Facebook.
Shit, man, if I went full fedi, I'd have even less to contribute than I already do. We've gotta have some external sources of news and knowledge.
I have traded reddit for lemmy and just closed my Meta and Xitter accounts and I'm already feeling a disconnect from society. I've been subscribing to new youtube channels and setting up RSS feeds to make up for the lack of connection to current events.
You claim to only have 48 years on this earth, but you talk about getting back to a time that hasn't existed in at least that long. Are you just reminiscing about rose-tinted stories you heard from your elders? The "good times" they want to return to were anything but for many of us.
When I shower, my hands get dry with the rest of my body using the body towel. My hand towel is a separate smaller towel by my sink that I use after eliminating waste and subsequently washing my hands.
I don't go as extreme as OP. I have 3 towel types: large body towel that I use to dry my entire face/hair/hands/body after bathing. Smaller hand towel by the sink for drying hands/face after using the sink. And finally a separate medium-sized hair towel to wrap my long hair for further drying after I've already got most of the water off with my body towel. I'll wear that towel for 5-10 minutes after bathing. That towel isn't necessary for short hair.
The base OS is a known unchanging set of bits. Squirt this datastream onto a storage volume and boot to it and you have a known-working system. Then you can futz around with all the self-contained packaged apps you want, and no worries about weird interactions fucking over your whole system.
I love cool whip. It's magical! But I typically only have it two or three times a year in desserts when we have large family gatherings (every Thanksgiving and occasionally Christmas or Easter).
I just watch whatever Plex says my friends are watching.
