You can also just enable one of the “Cookie notices” lists in your ublock settings, no need for another extension.

Goldberg Variations. In particular, the 1981 recording played by Glenn Gould.

Such a great release. I love the tonal transition after The Word Becomes Flesh when the album gets a bit less dark. The way it starts with heavy religious samples at the start of the album and transitions to a somewhat different tone through that track is just incredible work.

CDN$ 89.99… I will maybe enjoy playing this in a few years.

I once had a dream that I went with my family to visit an old family friend (not seen in years) for dinner, but they lived in a different (i.e fictional) house that I had never been to before. Normally this wouldn’t seem strange but when I woke up and told another adult family member, they looked completely shocked. It turns out they had also dreamt of this exact same scenario that night set in the same fictional house. We could describe the setting and events in detail and both had exactly the same experience but from different perspectives in the dream.

I have no doubt there is some psychological explanation for this phenomenon but regardless it was quite an interesting experience.

wired > 2.4 ghz > Bluetooth

There are limitations that make Bluetooth annoying to deal with (unable to interact with BIOS using a Bluetooth keyboard for instance)

I run MSFS 2024 using proton on Linux, and have had reasonable success running other native windows addons (BeyondATC, opentrack for head tracking with webcam) in the same proton prefix by installing using protontricks then launching them all using the “exe.xml” trick for MSFS (see: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/start-multiple-programs-on-msfs-startup-with-this-exe-xml-tip/350698). I just do manual keybinds for my hardware inside the sim and it all works well, as a bonus performance seems a bit higher than on Windows.

Navidrome is great if you are looking for a self-hosted web streaming alternative.

I don’t have any friends.

Ironically the easiest way to play Fallout 3 these days is on Linux via Proton where it works perfectly.

And the best part is that this is driven by economics, not even policy at this point. Renewables are cheaper.

I wonder if this also reflects a general shift away from Ubuntu of if the phenomenon is mostly limited to the gamer demographic.

Arch on the desktop, Debian on the server is the way to go. Both solid, community (non-corporate) distros that fit each use case.

I came here to say my safety razor from 1932 that I use daily, but you beat me by a couple decades!

I find my uncut wood a little too big to fit in the fireplace, so I think I will say cut.

It’s an alternative “app store” but for only free and open source software, highly recommend checking it out!

Yes workout tracking works fine, not quite as polished as Connect but it is functional.

You cant use it to create or manage workout plans. It is feature complete for the health data as far as I can tell (HRV, sleep, etc).

I think it is only on F-droid

Did you put your watch into pairing mode? On my Forerunner, I have to go “Settings/Connectivity/Phone/Pair Phone” on my watch.
