I tried to usw this for my home folder in my daily driver, but it just did not work for me.

I’m now trying out the PARA system, and Iike it better.

I should also add I use obsidian.md for basically everything having to do with files/folders/organization, so I do have all sorts of tags, auto-updated tables, etc. So a simpler file structure suits me better.

Thank you kind soul, that really brightened up my day.

Not the whole government, but some of it 100% yes.

I don’t see anything that could be considered a “Youth bad” statement in that comment. It’s a complex issue, influenced by a myriad of factors.

For example, I could dissasemle and reassemble my first PC without any prior knowledge. I had to learn to use DOS to navigate the OS and get things done. I got a book from the library about it, and spent hours upon hours just learning about how the file structure, commands, programs, external media, etc. worked before I could do anything remotely useful.

Today a PC/tablet/phone is a black box, you have to actively WANT to tinker in order to learn such about how they work. And most big tech companies try to punish you for so much as trying to replace a battery yourself.

I suspect you are projecting some personal feelings onto a stranger’s comment.

That’s the nature of the beast. You can’t have human users on a network without at least some slop.

But the decentralized network ensures that a “techno-baron” has no more say than you or I, which is exactly what the internet is supposed to do.

That’s decidedly better than a centralized system, especially now.

At least they stuck to it, and were transparent about the state of things.

I’ve bought several early access games that I don’t play yet, because I believe they will get there at some point. My hardware doesn’t do cyberpunk 2077 justice, but if it did I would’ve bought it too.

I just thought perhaps there is already a lot of the necessary components there since bazzite is so well-tailored to running windows games. But of course I have no idea what I’m talking about. I hope I made that at least somewhat clear in my comment.

This is just an idea, but bazzite could possibly work for affinity. It’s designed around steam and proton compatibility layer, and it can play almost all games made for Windows out of the box.

So perhaps you could use the proton compatibility layer instead of wine. You could even add the exe to steam as a “non-steam-game” to make starting the program super simple.

I am no expert here, it’s just a thought.

The stupidest. They are absolutely nutty.

Germany has regulations for food that are much more demanding than those of the US, so there isn’t much that fast food restaurants can do to cut costs in Germany aside from the order touchscreens and such.

Here’s an example.

Excerpt about additives:

Believe it or not, big name food brands often adjust their ingredients in European countries compared to their products released in the United States. Certain ingredients that are illegal in Europe are still allowed, and commonly used, in the United States. The following eight common ingredients are approved in the U.S. but  banned by the European Union or select European states.

• rBGH (rBST) 

  • Common foods: Milk and yogurt
  • Purpose: Injected into cows to boost milk production

• Ractopamine

  • Common foods: Pork, beef, and turkey
  • Purpose: Increases lean muscle near the end of an animal’s life

• Potassium bromate (bromated flour)

  • Common foods: Hamburger and hot dog buns, and packaged baked goods
  • Purpose: Makes bread fluffier and whiter

• Brominated vegetable oil (BVO)

  • Common beverages: Sports drinks and sodas
  • Purpose: Keeps flavor from floating to the surface

• Olestra 

  • Common foods: Fat-free chips
  • Purpose: Substitutes fat

• Azodicarbonamide

  • Common foods: Frozen dinners, pasta mix, and packaged baked goods
  • Purpose: Bleaches flour rapidly

• Coloring agents (Red #40, Yellow #6, Yellow #5, and Blue #1)

  • Common foods/beverages: Cake mix, candy, soda, and sports beverages
  • Purpose: Changes food color

• BHA and BHT

And these additive ingredients expand past the EU into the United Kingdom. For example, the American version of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese is entirely different from Kraft’s “Cheesey Pasta” sold in Great Britain. Take a look at the differences below.

I’ve also never met a squirrel that could talk. Still a funny comic.

Yes, they are dominating the handheld gaming market and will continue to do so for a while.

This has nothing to do with your personal preferences.

And valve has already won. Everyone else is just playing catch-up, and good luck catching up to a Linux-driven steam-integrated platform. You will need it.

That’s the price of privacy. Google has that traffic data because there are so many drivers with thier app installed. If you are OK with a giant corporation monitoring your every move, then of course that convenience is a good reason to use thier services.

Data is the new oil.

Baldur’s Gate 1 & 2. The open-world gameplay melted my adolescent brain after growing up on NES games. I haven’t stopped playing such games since, and I still go back and play them again occasionally.

Go for the eyes Boo!!
