I use Fossil for all of my personal projects. Having a wiki and bug tracker built-in is really nice, and I like the way repositories sync. It's perfect for small teams that want everything, but don't want to rely on a host like GitHub or set up complicated software themselves.

I had this set up the day it was available in my area. Never got an alert. I find it difficult to believe I wasn't "exposed" during the pandemic, so I assume this didn't really provide much value.

Google cases always seem hit-or-miss. I just buy the same Spigen case for every phone. I know I like it.

But I'm bi-testual

Briar and SimpleX seemed decent the last time I looked into this.

I ended up using neither because I don't need privacy when talking to myself.

I have all of my important electronics (computers, entertainment center, network equipment) on CP1500PFCLCD. They're scattered around the house, so there are multiple CP1500PFCLCD.

...then there's a 22 kW gas generator that handles everything once it switches on.

Nice, I like this one. Disappointed the units converter doesn't have pounds and ounces as a target, though. It only does pounds or ounces, not both. I tend to see a lot of quantities specified as pounds and ounces at the same time in my day-to-day activities.

Playing devil's advocate, I'd be worried you'd avoid doing work you don't want to do, but is core work that needs to be done. Not all employers want or are set up to employ wildcards. You may have to make your own path here, too.

The exchange rate is pretty good right now.

Did you just assume my Β₯der?

What the heck did you just say about storage, you little newbie? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in Computer Engineering, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on terrible cable management, and I have over 300 confirmed SSD installs. You're complaining about space on your PC like it's some sort of divine mystery? Listen up, sailor.

You're whining about dropping $120 on BG3 and Starfield? You could get a 1TB SSD for as low as 35 bucks, you scallywag. Don't even get me started on HDDs; a 1TB one is practically a steal at 22 dollars. And let's go big or go home: 2TB HDD for 40-65 dollars, or if you're feeling ritzy, a 2TB SSD at 60-90. Still less than your precious games, maggot.

You're out of SATA ports? Son, have you heard of a PCIe SATA card? Load that baby up. You've got more slots on your motherboard than you have excuses. Talking about running out of space with a setup that should give you 2-4TB at least? Don't make me laugh. You're telling me you can't find space for your precious BG3? That's only 150GB, sailor, uninstall it if you're so keen on playing Starfield.

And if you've hit the limits of both onboard SATA and PCIe, then I have one word for you: USB 3. Worst case, you get an external drive and run Starfield from there. Don't act like your OS drive is the final frontier; there are many ways to expand your digital seas, you landlubber.

So before you cry about storage again, maybe do some basic math and stop acting like you're navigating uncharted waters. Get another drive, or walk the plank.
