Thank you! :) Greetings from looks fun and also useful! :)
Thank you! :) Greetings from looks fun and also useful! :)
Thank you, that’s really kind. All the more reason to enjoy that time! :)
It’s been a few years, and the way you described your dog made me smile more than anything :)
Aw I miss my dog! I used to say he’d walk into a room and think “Hi everyone! I’m a dog! Someone should play with me I think this would be good!”
Hull, England for me! I went up as a student and stayed another year, partly because I loved the city and wasn’t ready to go home.
There was a great vibe, music venues, free museums and galleries, felt safe, and loved wandering.
I saw the rougher bits too, but it didn’t seem to different to most places. On the whole, the centre was way nicer than I expected, and there was a lot of cool community things people were running.
My 1080 was okay with Linux Mint, no complaints, and performance is the same from what I can tell. :)
I just switched over to Mint from Windows 10 a month ago, and besides from setting up my quirky USB audio for music making, I was astonished as I rarely needed to look anything up. :)
Using DuckDuckGo helped I think, but presently, most of my questions I searched came back with forums with real people talking, which was lovely.
I remember trying this in 2010 and… nope, everything was a project, command lines everywhere, and it was a pig. I was very impressed this time, everything quietly worked. :) Even every steam game I threw at it, even ruddy GTA San Andreas, which never ran for me on Window 10!
The searches/sticking points I looked up were
*there was actually a human-made guide for my usb audio when I searched on DuckDuckGo, which was made by an utter saint of a person!
** it ran fine, but I was in the middle of a save, so wanted to keep my mod loadout :)
I bet there’s a bunch of quality of life things I take for granted on android! I think you’re right about the search :)
Windows Phone’s UI is a hill I will die on, it was really nice! I actively missed it for a while when switching.
Ooh for me that would be another “I know I should hear this but somehow haven’t!” :) looking forward to tomorrow already to see what’s next! :)
I do now! First album is Illmatic by Nas, and it’s been a good discovery so far :) I have a limited knowledge of hip-hop, so this is really cool to listen to! Thank you for the link to this :)
Oh fantastic! :) Thank you, next playthrough I will get things going on Linux in that case, as that’s new to me! :) Like a fool I tried nexus mods vortex in Wine initially because I didn’t know better!
I can second this! For me it meant that I could finish my game of modded fallout new vegas, and connect to my work’s microsoft vpn nonsense (IT support didn’t fancy trying it on Mint but that’s another story!)
I now have a personal OS that I like, and a windows partition for those few things that I can’t be bothered to troubleshoot.
So far the list is just those things and the Unity Engine as Visual Studio debugs better than code in my experience. :)
Having the option to flick back is great :) In the XP days, I loved the WUBI(?) tool that let you install ubuntu dual boot as an exe, but I think that’s not a thing these days., :)
Of course!
I have a few in the car, but this is today’s project! :) This case has been with me at least a decade judging by the fact I used it to cart music to play in the Oxfam shop while on the till.

In case of curiousity, this week’s music was things I like but haven’t listened to in ages!
I just set up a nice little wallet of cds :) it makes me happy to do, and some of the stuff isn’t on spotify :)
Works okay for me, Galaxy S10, Android 12 :)
Heck yes! Earthbound! One of those games I felt was made perfectly to my taste :) funny, quirky, slightly uncomfortable… All great. :)
hehe I read the last words a “snot much” and did a double take :)
Damn I remember that album coming out… Last week?
damn time flies, please make it stop!
In case anyone is following this: Eurogamer are reporting that Game have denied this.
I really hope game will still sell… games, but am cynically wondering if they are measuring the reaction from this to make a decision. :/
