Some sort of journaling really helps when you feel like you have no direction. You can turn back the pages and see what path you took and even identify some ideas or values you want to implement in your life moving forwards. I recommend a notebook instead of a digital notes app.

This is a habit that I formed fairly recently 3-4 years ago I think. Initially I was writing down on smaller notepads which tend to get filled up quickly. Now I use a dotted notebook, so that I can draw something if I need to (although unruled notebooks also work)

Don’t obsess over decorating it like the bullet journal folks do on YouTube/Instagram and if you are thinking of using apps like obsidian or logseq - don’t go too far down the rabbit hole , just write down something instead.

You can have something like tasks.org for todos (organize your day) and a physical notebook to develop a vision (get some direction in your life)

Haha I was also going to comment the same thing.

OP may be out on a trek while gentoo is compiling at home.

Have you tried Floorp yet ? It’s pretty good, you may find some things really neat coming from Vivaldi.

I tried both flatpak Steam and the non-flatpak one which comes with Bazzite. I gave it access through flatsel like usual, but when I tried to add the drive from within steam it just sat there doing nothing.

I have not encountered this issue on other distros.

Actually I don’t have an igpu, I have an rx6600 and an i5 10400f.

I’m currently using Aurora-dx, is the switcheroo patch available there too ?

Rather than rebasing, would there be a way to to layer the Bazzite Optimizations (Kernel & scheduler Optimizations for gaming, not Lutris etc) on top of aurora-dx?

I find Boost for lemmy to work really well for me. I also use Voyager as a backup.

Thanks for sharing this, but I have found another way to control the volume. I’m using back taps on my phone to control the volume now. It’s very convenient.

I have edited my post to include how I enabled this.

Bruh I just got the OnePlus 12… Welp…

Pixel pricing is horrendous in my region anyway.

I was surprised to see moondrop releasing an android device. If they can keep it affordable it will sell well.

Recently I have started using this app called Nightwave Plaza. It has a surprisingly good selection of chill music that I can play in the background.

I have used Freebsd for sometime on my desktop back in 2021. For the most part I had a good experience except that I couldn’t figure out how to connect earphones/mic on the ports on my PC case. I had to plug it directly to my motherboard for Freebsd to detect them. I used an Nvidia card at that time and it also worked very nicely although it had much older drivers than Linux.

I ended up switching back to linux because of 2 reasons -

1. I have a few BTRFS drives that I use regularly and couldn’t afford to buy some new ones for Freebsd at that time.

2. I couldn’t play games using steam proton. I don’t know the situation these days, but I’ll surely check it out If it has improved since then.

You should give Freebsd a try, you might like it.

I usually use audiobookbay.

I want to thank you so much for suggesting this. I’m almost caught up with all the episodes of the podcast and I’m hooked. I just wish I had the time to follow up each episode with supplementary reading.

P.S: sorry for necroposting !

I was super interested in getting a job in cybersec, especially red team. But unfortunately no one wanted a fresher like me when I graduated.

Then things led to one another and I found myself working as a web developer. I’d still jump to a good cybersec job if I ever land one.

I’m in India. Everyone I talk to just recommend either working as a developer or working abroad.

They do have a reason for saying this though. The average electrician , plumber and carpenter that they know are all make enough to survive but not enough to lead a lavish lifestyle. People who work in waste management and transport usually make even less than electricians and plumbers.

Maybe things are changing these days, I’ll have to talk to the right people to get a better idea…

If you don’t mind, what set of skills got you employed ?

I just installed sway, will try comparing the performance of games in both WMs.

Thank you so much for this. Worked like a charm.

Now I can finally get started with that 2nd play through of Elden Ring I have been contemplating since the news of the DLC.

Thanks, I just checked the output on the terminal and it’s like @Nerdulous@lemm.ee mentioned.
