Thanks for the recommendations! Especially Easy Red 2 👀
I am a big fan of the Red Orchestra/Rising Storm series and there is a mod coming out soon for Rising Storm 2 called Black Orchestra that I’m planning to fill the Battlefield shaped hole in my heart with. It’s in beta right now, but you best believe I’ll be letting everyone know about it when it hits steam.


I pretty much only buy indie games at this point. Any game made by a company that benefits a stock ticker? You best believe I’m… (checks what comm I’m in) …Acquiring it. Lol
Funnily enough the one exception to this rule that I probably would have made was BF6 but they forced me to sit this one out by barring Linux users 🤷♂️ So I’m playing Outer Worlds 2 instead rn.


OverTheWire is fun! If you decide to play and get stuck make sure to check out the discord for help.


Lol that’s pretty much how it went for me. One day it pissed me off for the last time. Switched to Jellyfin and never looked back. Should have done it so much sooner.


There is a private tracker named materialize. Small and not easy to get into quickly, but if you’re on other private trackers check their invite forums. You should be able to find a thread (probably closed) if you’re on a big enough private tracker. And then you just wait for them to open the thread and start taking applications again.
Thanks for the recommendation! I always end up doing things the hard way anyway lol
Hell yeah! Thanks for the background info and the link to the documentation!
Hell yeah, I don’t really mess with scripts much yet but I do love to be non standard. Thanks for the run down!
I just switched to fish for the pretty colors and quality of life features. Anything I should keep in mind while using it as a Linux noob? I don’t even know who POSIX is lol.


If you want to buy a little insurance for your self look into getting a seed box. Then you can download from the seed box with a VPN over sftp. I would think that would be pretty hard to determine what you’re doing but I don’t know enough about it to speak confidently one way or the other.
Good luck! Hope you get hired soon.
What options are you looking into as far as a Fi replacement? I’m also on Fi and want to ditch them, and the Pixel soon.


I was just there yesterday, shoulda had me pick one up for you.
I am absolutely thinking of Frontline! Thanks for setting me straight!
“GRAB THOSE BANGALORES!”
Yes! This game was amazing at the time. Storming Normandy and a later mission on German u boat are both core memories for me. And I can confirm (though this was almost 10 years ago now, so it’s probably worse still) graphics do not hold up today at all but I remember still liking the actual gameplay still. Might try to spin that up in an emulator sometime for shits and gigs. Thanks for the blast from the past OP.
The drive isn’t even hooked up I swear!


I played Civ 7 after a few patches and I just could not get into it. I don’t think I even made it into the second phase or age or whatever. Was so bummed by how lackluster it felt that I went and tried out Humankind, and despite a steepish learning curve I ended up enjoying it so much I played through 3 entire games.
