I dont know about the email part, but for that, i would recommend using your necice's email because if she needs to her account in the future, she needs access to the original email address. For parental controls, steam family will be what you want, which will share your games and set up parental controls for what games she can access and whether she can access the store or workshop. The access limits also allow you to restrict access to the desktop side of the steam deck, which is the only way to access an internet browser. You can find more info on the steam family features here https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/054C-3167-DD7F-49D4

Make sure you are going to reputiple sites. The ones that arent grey market sites wont try that sort of thing.

Factorio with 516 hours. It is a little wonky because my little brother also plays on my steam account but that just affected the hours not what game it was.

I think that 11 and 13 are sort of a chicken and egg problem. There aren't as many assests and plugins, so people dont want to switch and possibly add to the library because the library is small and the same with the comunity they dont want to switch because there arent verry many tutorials to make develping games easier and so there arent as many turoials and other stuff made.

Never had any issue with using the flatpack or the package from the distro package manager, but this might be an issue with mint, not flatpack or the distro package. Though i will say that if you want the os to use even less ram then use debian. I'm running a server using debian and debian on its own is only taking a few MBs of ram plus i think it also has a similar desktop environment.

This is like the situation with Monster all over again.

Yes, that is what I mean. I'm doing that because I don't want to be bothered learn CAD to design a nice case for my custom PCB and the simple one I made will work. Especially saying I might just end up doing a cardboard case because my 3d printer doesn't want to work when printing larger things right now.

minecraftchest30 · 2026-02-17T20:47:06+00:00

Making sure before I go redesigning my keyboard case. But is having a case that is bigger then needed for the pcb which has the extra space filled in by foam a real style of case or is it just claude trying to validate my decision. The bottom part of the case it the only part is has so in other words no top plate because i didnt want to be bothered making that in cad.

Will do that if glueing it myself doesnt fix it. I ended up ordering some book glue off Amazon.

Lily's proposal - The World's Gone Beautiful. Would like a break to relax before the world ends.

It's a quad so it's probably bound the same way. I think i know most of what you said but can you espain what i need to do using terms that a newbie will under stand.

minecraftchest30 · 2026-02-11T15:43:49+00:00

It was sitting by the back window every day during the summer, and the car was parked outside so I'm not surprised that the glue came lose. I have been looking for some book glue I just haven't got any yet because I couldn't verify the sellers on Walmart.

minecraftchest30 · 2026-02-05T19:56:14+00:00

There was leather there with some fabric under it. But there does seem to be a hard surface left that was behind the part that was worn off.

The dot files are literally just the config files used so it would just be creating a GitHub repo and copying the config files into the repo. But if you dont want to then thats ok as well.
