Pop! was my first choice also. But it’s so locked down that if you want to, say, add another HDD the OS makes that a massive pain.

I moved away from it shortly after that.

I went with Bazzite. It’s built on Fedora and intended to be installed on both Deck and desktop.

It’s been working out well so far!

Running Ryzen 3000 and RTX 4000 hardware.

The internet has ruined me to the point I’m looking for either Saddam or Loss.

Got the pop up on my desktop, never would have thought about donating without it.

Milk cooked low and slow until it falls off the bone.

This happened to me. I tried to force the issue but it never felt the same.

Try some computer-related past-times. Blender is a great option if you want to learn how to work with 3d models. But it’s much more than that, you can use other people’s models and make digital dioramas or animations.

An alternate route leads you into 3d printing or industrial design. Blender is great for organic shapes, but something like OnShape is better for accurate part sizes.

You could pick up some programming, learnpython.org could be a starting point, if you have zero experience.

You could try digital art. There’s a world of knowledge out there for you.

Or, go do something unrelated to computers!

These things ebb and flow. Don’t force it.

Why do they shift from she/her to he/him halfway through the article?

Ai generated?

Why does this article talk about Intel for 4 paragraphs without a single mention of the company in the fucking title?

I appreciate the token effort to obscure peoples faces in the small thumbnails, but not the massive one at the top.

Many tvs have microphones built into them or their remotes.

Some are even sending screenshots of what they are displaying to their backend servers.

If we’re looking in a mirror, shouldn’t the name on the door be readable?

Unless they’re sitting in the hallway…

BUY BONESTORM OR GO TO HELLLLLLL

Not to mention the self image impact such things would have on women with smaller breasts, who (as I understand it) generally already struggle with poor self image due to breast size.

I fucking love discouraging new players from the things I like!

The way they won’t support any future versions that I might enjoy gets me so wet.

Letting my fandom erode and crumble, yisssssss.

I’m you, and you’re me?

Hey! Don’t jerk me around.

Isn’t steel wool too fine for removing bumps?

For finishing, sure. But I’d be looking around 600grit for my first pass.

Some companies have a reputation for shipping shit and never fixing it.

Others ship shit and then polish that turd until it shines.

I do firmly believe this is one of the former.

Part of you cares. This post proves it.

Your asshole brain may be looking for validation that it’s ok to let this continue, but it isn’t. And you won’t find it here either way.

More people care about you than you let yourself believe. I know because you’ve made me care.

So, do me a favour, try and get this looked at. As you said, resources are tight but this is important. Possibly more important than anything else.

My paternal grandfather and ALL OF HIS BROTHERS died from heart attacks, so I’m on high alert for that in my own life.

Wait, so I can just damage other people’s property?!
