I buy my wife matching undies and bras.

It’s fun for me, she appreciates the new clothes and I pick out what I want to see her in / out of.

Win win.

How many Linux people actually get the survey? I know I didn’t.

Gnome-disk-utility or “disks” in Linux will clone a partition and then restore it to another disk.

But see you’re thinking about it the wrong way… Every one of those pirated copies is 100% a potential sale lost.

Won’t you think of the shareholders?

Fantastic game. Runs on Linux as well natively

I’m not amd guy… I’ve used Intel and Nvidia for ages and ages… when my last upgrade failed hardware wise… I bought a Intel minipc from Beelink with an Intel ultra 5 125h.

It came with windows 11.

I’m a dad of a 1 yr old. who is playing stardew with his wife right now.

Ive formatted a handful of times to different Linux distros to see which felt better for me on this PC.

Manjaro, kubuntu, Debian, kde neon.

Currently I’m running kde neon. Out of the box it likes to reboot on updates… so I found a non-sudo needed cli command to fix that. (It’s a setting apparently in settings)

Anyway…l say all this to say… the way steam is now… and how graphics cards are… you can pretty well run what you want.

Granted it’s antidotal from me… But as long as you’re not buying the absolute latest stuff from a hardware vendor… You’d be fine.

If I was buying now I’d probably not buy the Intel chips that are having troubles but the gen before that… and probably some 3xxx Nvidia card.

And not hesitate to run any distro I wanted.

Ps I like apt… because that’s what I’m comfy with. So I tend to use distros that use apt. Tho manjaro is nice because of the aur… But they have issues company wise

I get many many emails from a website that specializes in gifts for spouses …

I unsubscribed from all… they doubled down. I unsubscribed again… and they Kept sending emails.

I flagged the entire domain as spam in Gmail and it all just goes to spam now.

Fuck all that noise

I wish Minecraft had an in game play counter… Well… I mean I’m glad it doesn’t but I kind of wish it did. I’ve been playing since 2011 or so…

I probably have more than a year in actual game time… lol

I juuuust retired a t420s recently… off lease computers are absolutely the way to go for buying new to you laptops.

Toss in a SSD and a Linux distro… and you’re good for 6-8 years imho

My wife did a cert class for data analytics and needed a work horse laptop. I bought her a used i7 Thinkpad from eBay.

It’s so damn fast… m2 drive 32 GB of ram it’s literally only limited in speed by the user input.

Just an amazing deal for $450

Edit it was a t14 gen 2.

As an American in the south east… 72-78 slow breeze partially cloudy and very very little humidity.

The humidity is what kills you here… Sure it’s 85° out… but 98% make it suck.

Gone in 60 minutes?

Sitting in a meeting right now…

This is such a an accurate comment.

Plex uses it other than that I don’t give them a click

At a bdsm club.

Spotted her across the way. She spotted me when I struck up a conversation with the boyfriend of her bff.

Here we are 6 years later married.

Good times.

That movie has a 29% rotten tomato rating…

How the fuck?

It has the multi pass to everyone’s heart.

That’s why on my kde desktop at home it has a check box that say “allow these windows to be grouped” and I can check / uncheck as needed.

It works so much better. Imho

Man. Work moved us to windows 11 and you couldn’t ungroup windows on the taskbar… We use RPG / as400 and throughout the day you’ll end up with 4-5 windows… having them all grouped is annoying when I have to hover over a popup to see which window I need.

Googling revealed that win11 wasn’t shipped with that functionality and it was only patched into the operating system in late q3 of last year.

So annoying and a huge productivity hit for me.

Yep. I bought Plex pass lifetime for $60 a while back. It came with plexamp which allowed me stream music to my phone.

Which after Google play music was murdered I vowed never to do a streaming service again.

So that was worth it.

Say what you want about the direction Plex is going currently… But as of now it 100% meets my needs.
