Alter Aeon is a fun MUD with multiclassing. I love my wizard / cleric / thief

They also have a nice wiki

Salix,

For me, it is Nova Drift. It has been the game I go to when I just want to relax and chill.

For my main computers, I’ve moved them all to Arch from Manjaro & EndeavorOS within the past 4 years. Though been meaning to try OpenSUSE Tumbleweed eventually. Haven’t used OpenSUSE in over 10 years.

I have a laptop running Proxmox for my servers, which is debian-based but uses a modified Ubuntu LTS kernel. Great to use to try out other distros in VMs as well.

Salix,

Not saying anything bad about EndeavourOS, because it’s great, but:

All of the Arch goodness, but with an easy installer that handles the DE too.

Arch has a guided TUI installer included in it’s ISO that does this too.

Even if you don’t like or care about something, you shouldn’t spread fake information.

The user should be correctly informed, and they can make the decision on whether to keep using it or not.

Why do you take this personally? Just use opensubtitles.com instead of their old opensubtitles.org?

They are only changing the old .org API, because they are moving on to their new website and REST API that they’ve been working on for a while. The new REST API is still free for 5-10 subtitle downloads a day.

Or you can download directly on the website.

Defrosting my windows so that I can actually see to drive

Also, connecting my phone via bluetooth to play music or podcasts

Hard for me to choose just one. I love these three instruments because they are so peaceful and calm. Though people do use them to do covers of heavier music as well.

The Guzheng is a 21-26 string zither instrument. I love Zithers in general. There are many types from different countries.

The Guquin is a 7 string instrument.

The Erhu is a 2 string instrument. Part of the huquin instrument family.

Google maps is tough lol

You could try to see if you’d like Magic Earth. It’s proprietary, but has a good privacy policy, uses Open Street Maps, and has traffic data.

Though if you’re dependent on Google Maps for reviews and photos of places, then it’s much harder to replace. Though I guess you could just use the website to look that up.

No issues with:

  • Firefox+ uBlock Origin (PC)
  • Freetube (PC)
  • NewPipe (Android)
  • SmartTube (Android/Google TV)

Wow. 30 times in 3 years? I wonder if that’s specific packages or hardware you had. I had 5 computers (2 desktops, 3 laptops) running Manjaro for so many years, and still haven’t had a single system break. Including using a lot of AUR packages.

Though last year, I’ve moved all of my computers to Arch, Debian, and Proxmox. Arch mainly because I wanted to fully configure my systems more.

I’ve personally have never heard of coconut milk in cà phê sữa đá (iced [condensed] milk coffee) before.

You must be thinking about cà phê dừa (coconut coffee), which usually has coconut milk and condensed milk

Though a hot small cup of cà phê trứng (egg coffee) is the best. You beat egg yolk into condensed milk and sugar, and then pour it into coffee. And it’s so nice and creamy

I'm looking for a privacy respecting vacuum robot

I’m looking for a vacuum robot preferably under 500€ and with a cleaning station. My main concern is that most robot vacuum providers seem to need to be connected to the internet. Are there any providers that either don’t need that, where I can block the internet connection or any other way not getting a spy in my home?...

Salix, (edited )

I use a Dreametech L10 Pro with Valetudo and absolutely love it!

It is quite nice to be able to map your whole house for the vacuum in your own cloud rather provide a 3rd party that data.

Might be good to post on !unixporn, the offshoot of /r/unixporn on Reddit. Always need more people posting there! :)

[QUESTION] What is your favorite cut of steak and what's your go-to cooking method?

I tend to go for a NY strip 9/10 times when I’m buying steaks, unless there’s some good deal on something else. Or I’ll go to Costco and get a big roast and cut steaks out of it. I’m not super picky these days because I always sous vide and torch my steaks and they come out so nice no matter what the cut. Salt and pepper...

Salix, (edited )

For home, I usually buy picanha steak and cook it in my carbon steel pan. I like to render the fat to cook the steak in it’s own fat.

Salix,

Unfortunately, it looks like they deleted the Windows branch in Sept 2023

github.com/IgnisDa/ryot/pull/371

Salix, (edited )

I have used Ryot for a while. It is nice and has a lot of features. It has documentation, which is really nice.

I am using Media Tracker because it has most of the features I need and it’s very fast. I wish it had genre sections like Ryot though. It looks like someone created an issue for it at least. Might go back to Ryot eventually, but we’ll see. Luckily Ryot has a Media Tracker import option.

Salix, (edited )

It is only made for Docker, which you can run on Windows, MacOS, and Linux

ignisda.github.io/ryot/

Salix,

I personally use Media Tracker because it’s fast and have enough features for me.

Ryot is another one that’s good.

Flox hasn’t had a commit since 2020. It’s not being updated anymore.

Salix,

Yup! Whereas with Media Tracker, everything is pretty much almost instantaneous for me.

Ryot was too slow for me. It’s really bad when you try to mark multiple TV series seasons as “seen” at the same time as well.

If you don’t need port fowarding for torrents, I recommend Mullvad.

I swapped to AirVPN after Mullvad dropped port forwarding. AirVPN app on Android & Linux kinda sucks. Linux one is usable at least. The Android one is just bad, but I just use the Wireguard app instead of the AirVPN app.
