That’s a fair a good point!

I’ve switch between iOS and Android, but good news on one of those you can set your default browser now on iOS.

Glad I’m not the only one. I was reading the article and then the Mastodon thread and thought I was crazy for feeling like Lori was at least just as bad.

Check out Orion! Firefox and Chrime add on support.

Edit: Also like Vivaldi. If you want device wide I can highly recommend NextDNS

I’ve considered trades even with it being a full 180 from what I do now. Seems like location can vastly vary the experience. Build the base and bones of what society runs off of seems interesting though.

 

What careers don’t get enough credit for being fulfilling, acceptable pay and a good work life balance?

Where can I get a steam controller dirt cheap? I’ve wanted one since I got my SD but any of them in decent used shape seem to go for $50-60 and often are missing the dongle.

Appreciate you sharing that. While I do enjoy platformers I worry the entire thing is a novelty that I’d stop carrying after a few weeks.

That’s certainly part of it, my steam deck is in use most days and easily one of my best video game purchases.

I very much have wanted one of these to carry around for quick gaming fixes, but have struggled to justify the $219 for one. Especially when I have seen mixed reviews of the quality, hard to tell if vocal minority or it’s just a lucky draw if you get a good one or not. Anyone had one for a while and still loving it?

I’ve never heard of it, but sad to hear they sold out. Just as a note totally love there icons. I miss icons feeling like someone put some real effort and love into them.

Edit: Damn they’re just sunsetting the products and services? That’s rough.

This is a great post. I don’t personally need it but I love to see these sorts of teaching/sharing posts especially when companies make these sorts of decisions.

Fair enough :)

I’m opposite and just now have a 4 year old dabbling with electronics.

 

I’m using a dedicated PC running Ubuntu and using CasaOS manage the applications I need. I’ve been able to get Nicotine+ and other clients installed without issue but curious if folks have a setup that has just Soulseek going through a VPN? I don’t think I want 100% of my servers traffic going though the VPN (namely Plex), and would like to have Soulseek on this box so all my music stays in one place making it easier to share. Open it alternatives here.

I guess the broader question might be, how are people using a VPN with Soulseek, while also sharing files from locally hosted source? I could put Soulseek on another machine with a VPN but then it wouldn’t be able to see the local only shared folders.
