Dragon Age: Origins. Haven’t played since it’s release and wanted something in the same vein as the original Baldur’s Gate…does not disappoint!

Agreed - and Bluey rocks!

Definitely hear you there, but wrong flatpak 😉

Fun fact: St. Augustine started out as a Manichaean! Super interesting stuff even from a purely philosophical POV.

Aha - Take On Me …such a mesmerizing video. A girl reading a comic is sucked into a world in between the two realities. Really cool artistically and you can’t help but wish you could see more of the story.

Near Antigonish in Nova Scotia is a forest called Dagger Woods…the sign is right on the main highway. The story goes that a young lady was killed there a few centuries ago and you can hear her screams. First far away and then it slowly gets closer and louder till it’s piercing loud. Nothing bad happens but super freaky!

I use Shelter from F-Droid to create a work profile and then install RethinkDNS on that profile which blocks any trackers from the “bad” apps (you can add a tonne of blocklists). Additionally, if you have a Pixel, GrapheneOS has total app isolation (including storage scopes) so Messenger only has access to what you allow.

No worries! Strange of them to put a deadline…I agree the hardware is pretty solid!

Yeah, thankfully worked in Brave! I use Firefox (Librewolf) and haven’t installed Chrome in years…def annoying but not unexpected from Google!

If you haven’t already, be sure to convert it to Bluetooth mode from WiFi before the end of December or you won’t be able to use it anymore…I only found this out after trying to set it up with my Retropie. The link to the google web tool to convert it is here!

I have an HP Envy and it has honestly been a dream with any distro I throw at it. I find KDE to have better touch gesture support than Gnome, but I have been running Gnome for a while now and it hasn’t bothered me at all.

My bank app works great even without google services!

Feudal Tactics!. Super simple to pick up but def involves strategy. My favourite android game by far and a great distraction. Can download it from Fdroid!

I run it through Steam as a “non-Steam” game via Proton and have also run it with Lutris. It runs on both 100% fine, if not even better than Windows. In fact, this game running great has convinced me to finally drop my dual boot!

The original GW is such an awesome game!

I was expecting Skyrim to be one of the top!

I love the versatility of KDE and you can make it look amazing but at the end of the day I always end up with a Gnome-based distro for some reason. The simplicity is just so beautiful. Fedora has been my distro of choice for a few years and I don’t see that changing any time soon…it just works! With gaming via Steam/Proton I don’t see myself ever returning to Windows.

I’m done with Reddit once July 1st hits…it’ll be a change but once Lemmy takes off I can totally see it being a great replacement…already feels like home!
