I hope, for as long as possible to stick with only a fluctuating 4½ to 5 a day. One of my pills sometimes fluctuates with how much I need to take, but as long as I can keep it to the 3 types I’m currently taking or less, I’d be a happy old man.

Sometime in maybe 2021-22 I messed up something on a shitty laptop of mine at the time. Changed something on win10 and was trying to fix it to get admin privileges back on the single account on there. Some website recommended flashing Ubuntu onto a thumb drive and entering some commands on the live boot. Didn’t work out and I didn’t wanna go through with a fresh win10 install for close to, if not, $100 for everything. Ended up with Ubuntu 20.04 installed because I wanted to use that laptop.

I’ve since tried many and currently have MX on a better laptop. At some point I’m gonna try to either find something new I can learn so that way by October I can make my desktop have a priority Linux boot with an internet disconnected win10 partition, or just go with Mint or MX. Definitely got a small list of distros I might wanna try, so we’ll see.

Steam Deck’s touchpad so “too awkward”…

The Steam Deck touchpads are literally the ONLY modern touchpads I like. Every other mother touchpad is absolutely atrocious because they don’t give you anything like a vibration to tell you your mouse is moving and you actually get some level of confirmation you clicked. It feels like every other touchpad out there now, I swear, requires you to attempt to click on the left/right mouse button (completely integrated into the touchpad) about a billion times before it registers that you clicked once.

Also, if the joycons for switch 2 are anywhere near as uncomfortable to hold for extended periods of time like they are for me with regular switch, I guarantee my hand would start hurting after a couple minutes of the, probably gonna be as responsive as a dead man to a cannonball to the face, mouse mode. The premise of turning what could be one of the worst controller designs I’ve ever seen into a mouse makes my hands bleed in pain without having to ever hold one.

I’ve tried looking up a few people and the closest I can find are records from a local newspaper about births at a hospital. Specifically just that they happened on a certain date, with zero other information. That only worked for a select few people, though, because it was for a specific hospital.

I’ve tried also using a throwaway temp email to create a fakebook account to find someone I used to go to school with but I couldn’t find him anywhere on the site, so I assume he has some settings to prevent being found or something. That, or just doesn’t have an account.

Edit: same newspaper has the class/year we graduated. Cannot say when/where because I don’t feel like intentionally doxing myself.

I have absolutely no clue what the “normal” way to hold a pen is, but I hold all pens, pencils, whatever, using my thumb, pointer, and middle finger. That’s how I’ve been doing it for basically ever. Absolutely do not recommend that if you are like me; left handed and the other side of your hand rests on page when writing.

The whole From 104GB thing just tells me to stick with the original. Any game more than 20GB and it ain’t being installed on anything I own.

Either way, no surprise considering how big of a game this is, even if it is a remaster of a beloved classic so old that children have grown up only knowing every version of Skyrim released on everything from consoles to your mom’s smart vibrator.

So far, as a more casual user, using the preconfigured Plasma on MX, I have had only minor grievances that truly effect me and only somehow only broke it maybe 1-2 times.

Hear one thing: music!

Site and taste are something that would be a bummer to live without, smelling has been out of the question for over a decade, so I’m absolutely NOT going back to it, and that leaves sound.

I am unsure I could live without music.

Edit: forgot feel. Not as important to me as music.

Jam Hsiao because I really like his energy and his music. Only major hurdle would be the language barrier between, if we don’t include the nervous energy I’d most likely radiate.

It would technically fall under video game accessories, so I guarantee there are people who might want one because they collect that type of stuff.

I think one of the closest comparisons I could make are people who buy retro games/consoles just to display them and never actually use them.

Can attest to liquor being cheaper in some states. My parents have crossed state lines in order to do things and they can get not only cheaper liquor but also slightly cheaper gas across state line as well.

Free by Crush 40.

Also, Soul Coughing (El Oso since I only have that single album from them). Specifically Blame, $300, and Pensacola. This is my much more serious answer.

Just looked up the leak for a steam controller 2 and I think I’d rather stick with my wired PowerA switch controller. I am not a big fan of the original steam controller design and personally don’t like the design of the leak.

I get some people would absolutely love it, but I’m definitely in the “Do Not Buy” crowd. Not even to say I own one.

Just recently figured out Aux1 key is sprint, so VoxeLibre on Luanti has been much more playable for me to the point I can recommend it. Though Luanti in general is something I would suggest because they have some great games. I personally finished a short little puzzle like game called Eyeballs and it was pretty good.

Also, because I am very biased towards this game, Pokemon Uranium. Have to include it in my list of the best of the best. Same with Sonic Robo Blast 2 w/ the reveries mod.

Though if all of those don’t catch your fancy, there’s the still very WIP game open source SuperTux Advance is a lot of fun and in my opinion so much better than standard SuperTux. I absolutely approve it and list it as one of the best currently in its current incomplete state.

With everything going on behind the scenes with development and add-ons, 100% can vouch for SuperTuxKart. On my desktop I have way too many add-ons for extra tracks and karts that it’s not even funny.

Way too much Pokemon Rejuvenation. Basically the overwhelming majority of what I’ve been playing that isn’t PVZ Reflourished and fire emblem heroes on my phone on the bus too and from college.

Maybe I didn’t spend enough time looking at all the controls or something, but I definitely couldn’t figure out how to play my first turn in that game.

Might have to look into it and see if I really am just that dumb or what.

As someone who may obtain games and shows/movies through less than rights holder approved methods, ClamAV is a necessity.

I have an account. Never really used it for basically anything. Eventually started using their messaging service because of a group I was a part of. Now I don’t use either.

I think the last time I used it was a couple years ago when I looked for something on their crack house marketplace.

If anything, I only use ungoogled chromium if a website refuses to work in Firefox. Had a financial fraud and identity theft scam the other day hosted on a Singaporean form service thing that I had to report using that browser because the send report button wasn’t working on FF.

As much as I don’t like it, it’s probably a good idea to have a backup chromium based browser like ungoogled chromium just in case. Just be sure to not be like me and actually have it in some sort of sandbox rather than running the flatpak on its own.
