I love NFS. What made you dislike it? Just curious.

It works very well for me running arch on the desktop and unRAID on my NAS in the basement. NFS lets me blend my whole data pool into my file browser easily. Using the terminal on files on the NAS is chef’s kiss

My only complaint is sometimes it takes some finicky bullshit to auto-mount all the time. But I think that’s more of a problem with fstab. I don’t even remember how I fixed it last time.

Time to back up my fstab file lmao

I was there for work in my early 20’s. I worked on the industrial solar farms that supply utility power.

Even with a $75 per meal per diem, hotels paid for, rental pickup truck, etc, I still had no desire to gamble. I mean I was mostly working 80 hour weeks and going out to dinner but the slots were everywhere, even gas stations and dive bars.

Used to be you could play penny slots and get free drinks. I doubt that’s a thing anymore.

I did eat like a king tho. Steak and lobster like every night.

Soulseek

I’m sure it happens to most who specialize in something.

I’m an industrial electrician. I roll my eyes to the back of my head every time a video game tells me to like “reset the fuse for the town” or whatever. The verbage characters use is always just a hodgepodge of random ass electrical words, and the equipment is always illustrated not even close to real life.

I know I probably shouldn’t expect much close to realism but it’s when they try to make it sound real I always get a good chuckle

Like no one ever in the history of the field walks up to a sparking electrical box, “resets” a fuse, and it’s all good now.

Already did this ages ago. Been building a collection for decades now. I’m pushing about 10k albums on the NAS. Haven’t had spotify since like 2018

Can’t tell if you’re for or against it.

I don’t even smoke but I don’t mind it. Lets me know where the cheap dives are and the vibe is better.

Down here in Pittsburgh I can still pay $2-4 for a beer, and smoke inside.

Have you played Factorio? Based on what games you posted, I think you’d like it.

I’m at like 650 hours and it still feels fresh, challenging, allows for creative and logical thinking

AOC is liberal as hell

Where the hell are you getting 10Gbps for $50/mo? I’m paying $95/mo for 1Gbps

I got some news for you about Australia then.

I’m nowhere near as worried about this for kink stuff as I am about us LGBTQ living in the US.

The power supply is only going to output what it needs, nothing more. The wattage is a max rating. Oversizing will never harm anything

Call the utility company

Fuck no. I’m an electrician and wouldn’t do that. A nick could be under that birds nest and you’d never see it. Call the utility company. They’ll take care of this.

For Linux, this is kind of a stupid workaround but I’ve had success, add the installer as a non-steam game and run it through proton by switching to it in the “game’s” compatibility. Running it through wine has been hit or miss for me, it’ll crash or freeze up, but proton has worked pretty well so far.

Then after unpacking, install the game’s .exe as a non-steam game and run that through proton, deleting the first installer from your library

I didn’t go with speed queen because they’re nearly double the price of all other washer/dryers. I know they’re built like tanks and don’t really fail, or if they do they’re easy to fix. But I’ve also heard they can be tougher on clothes and wear them out quicker.

Ultimately ended up going with Maytag. It’s been solid for the past 6 months, no issues at all and I got a free 5 year warranty from the small local appliance store I bought it in, so maybe check them out opposed to the big box stores. They fix it if there are problems, not Maytag.

Also look for one with a “deep fill” option. All new washers have a federal requirement now that makes them “high efficiency” which really is just using way less water and spraying them for an hour. Whether this fully washes your clothes is a bit of a debate, but I guess that’s how most are in Europe now. The “deep fill” option is supposed to be if you’re washing bed sheets or very soiled clothes, but I still use it to soak my clothes.

Man sign me up because I haven’t had AC in like 10 years haha.

Some folks on here said they have problems with the EA launcher on Linux. Is the steam deck different or did you just work around it?
