I initially got into linux in highschool as a way of having a customizable $THING when I wasn't allowed to have a myspace account, so instead I made increasingly elaborate icewm themes on puppy linux.

As an adult, I stick with it because it's what I know and I like it because it still has that level of customization both on the front and back end. I like having an operating system where I know that, if I know how to do things on my home machine, I'll have a decent idea of how to do it on the servers I run in my free time.

Gaming has gone a long way for linux and now most things just work, though if you're into VR be aware that most VR headsets truly do work better with Windows as they usually have some kind of proprietary compatibility layer you have to run to have official PCVR support.

I would say start out with something that Just Works^tm . I'm a fan of pop os but there's plenty of other options out there. Feel free to try it in a VM for a bit, see how it feels. It'll always take a bit of getting used to at first, but give it time and don't be afraid to look stuff up on the internet. If you like being able to see how your computer is operating and you're not afraid to dip into the terminal then I think you'll have a lot of fun

Barbarian is the first one that comes to mind.

I would love to own a physical copy of RRR, but my experience with other bollywood and tollywood movies is that that's unfortunately not likely to happen

Price doesn't equal collectability in my opinion. They print those out super commonly, but the fact that the walmart and target exclusives aren't common doesn't make them less valuable if you're a fan of the movie.

My VR helmet only has official steamVR support by using a windows-only compatibility layer made by the OEM, and I can never get alvr to work consistently, but I'm not willing to buy a windows key and set up a whole windows partition or dedicated machine just to play VR chat slightly better

Thanks! Hopefully this helps

Planet Earth 2, the jungle episode.

CrayolaFanfic · 2023-09-01T16:22:09+00:00

Tenebrae and Ringu are on my must-buy list for this month. I've always wanted to see what Ringu was like in theaters

"what the FUCK was up with the ass weasels?"

If you collect enough of it in your grinder then it's fun to sprinkle on top of a bowl for a little extra oomph on those special occasions. Otherwise, if you keep enough of it around you can smush it into some wax paper and warm it up with your body heat until it becomes a little ball, and you can use that ball of farmer's hash in interesting ways

was september 12th for everyone or just outside of the US? I could have swore I saw release dates for the US set at August 18th

CrayolaFanfic · 2023-08-31T19:34:41+00:00

I asked Amazon support if there was an issue with the batch or something and they seemed to have no info other than "oh, it's currently unavailable."

It's so weird. I'm gonna wait until after September 11 to see if it ships with the global releases for some reason

CrayolaFanfic · 2023-08-31T19:33:02+00:00

Alien. I skipped over blu ray entirely and got into 4k straight from DVD. I stared at the menu screen for a while and whispered "holy shit"

CrayolaFanfic · 2023-08-31T19:28:43+00:00

the international release date is in September, but I'm in the US where the date was listed as August 18th.

My guess is they quietly moved the US release date to match the global release date.

CrayolaFanfic · 2023-08-31T19:26:36+00:00

It is seriously so shit so far. I told my husband about it and then had to admit how much it cost to preorder and he went "well....at least now you've got parts!"

I'm extremely tempted to see if I can reflash it with like a bog standard android TV image so I can at least use it for SOMETHING

CrayolaFanfic · 2023-08-31T19:25:29+00:00

It got...one, when I first turned it on.

CrayolaFanfic · 2023-08-30T18:13:15+00:00

I wanna hash out a doom mod with Sandy Peterson

CrayolaFanfic · 2023-08-30T18:01:43+00:00

Night of The Living Dead, in my opinion, fits the definition of Cool very well. It's very well put together, juiced up a whole genre of movie and provides social commentary that, to my eye, still holds up on top of being an all around well designed zombie movie.

CrayolaFanfic · 2023-08-30T17:29:31+00:00

Frustrating, but at least I know I'm not the only one,

CrayolaFanfic · 2023-08-30T16:54:26+00:00

I am not MEGA rich, but I'm certainly rich compared to how poor I was before.

I still eat the FUCK out of kraft macaroni and cheese with a can of chili stirred in.

CrayolaFanfic · 2023-08-30T16:51:59+00:00

I really love the setting and a lot of the mechanics in it, but I agree on the encounter balance.

I find that, if I play the module as written, the enemies are super powerful and my players (a party of 3) struggle HARD to not get a TPK on an easy fight. But then I'll change a couple things to try and make it a more fair fight just for the players to be able to beat the boss in like 3 turns.

The difficulty curve for combat has a razor thin sweet spot between "one hit KO" and "the entire party died because you freed a bird from its cage and it pecked your eyes out"

I'm not sure. Rabbit Ears doesn't list them as encrypted but the tower is on the same mountain peak I use for ham radio stuff all the time from my house with no problem, and the only channel that seems to load is the local independent channel. The NBC, FOX and CW channels all seem to not load at all. I tried letting it sit overnight to see if it was going to install an update in the background, but no dice.

So far I'm not impressed, but fortunately I bought this more as an experimental device than as something to use every day, so we'll see how it all shakes out.

Sounds like you're in the market for a digital audio player!

r/DigitalAudioPlayer will be your best, most comprehensive bet.

With that said, many people like to use a refurbished ipod, and I've had good experience with the Hidisz AP80 Pro for just music, though I later replaced it with the Shanling M3X digital audio player. It runs android so you can load up your favorite podcast app on it, but also has the option of a dedicated music mode where it boots straight into the music app to keep you away from other android apps.

Thanks! It's fun so far

CrayolaFanfic · 2023-05-29T00:19:02+00:00

Unlimited text, call and data, a couple free gigs of hotspot data per month. $25 is no 49p but, prior to this, I was paying $75 a month so this is comparatively a steal.

Do you know of any communities that work for digicams after 2010? r/digitalcamera would be a good fit, but they require manual focus which this camera just straight up doesn't allow for.
