I've got Pentiment and Persona 5 ready to go. I'll probably start Pentiment first since it's undoubtedly shorter.
Balatro looks really tempting, too, but I'd want that for my laptop or phone (?) and not my gaming PC.
I use Portainer mainly to start / stop / restart containers without the mental load of using the command line. It works fine with Compose if you can get (or write) a yaml file for the container you're interested in, or you can use it to pull from the repository and set everything up if you can't. Portainer also gives you a nice, one-stop view of the current state of your containers. Basically, it can't hurt to have it around.
Personally, my favorite Docker management GUI is the one that comes with Synology NASes. It's much less clunky that Portainer and iirc a little more powerful. But of course it only runs in their hardware.
I got a free copy with a graphics card I bought recently, but AAA games aren't really my jam. OTOH, I would like to put the card through its paces... Chances are it will make me create yet another account somewhere to play it, so I probably won't bother with it.
The graphics card looks okay. It probably has a passive mode where the fans only spin up under load. If it doesn't that suggests an issue with the power supply affecting both the CPU and GPU.
First off, I'm pretty sure the 7600X doesn't have an integrated GPU, and it won't boot without a graphics card installed. Plug in your graphics card and make sure it's powered.
The debug LED code says there's a problem with the CPU (Right? Double check the manual). Unfortunately you probably need to take the cooler off and reseat the CPU itself. Make sure the lever is properly engaged. Don't worry about the thermal paste now, just try to get it to complete POST.
I loved Monster Train, and Slay the Spire has such a great reputation, but the art style is ass so I've been reluctant to pick it up (Monster Train's is pretty bad too). This doesn't look like much of an improvement, but perhaps gameplay trumps graphics again here.
And yet somehow the multiple people who have played them really bring them to life.
This is a very good point. I hope the display had some video. Apart from just being well known puppets, it's kind of a 'look at what you can do with so little' thing.
It's funny because of how unexpressive they are as puppets. I imagine people who are into puppetry enough to run a museum would want all kinds of eyebrows and cheeks and wings and bells and whistles, but these guys are basically bricks. Like, their mouths open and close, but that's about it!
Yeah, my main complaint with PoE 1 is the way it bludgeons you with lore. The writers are so excited to show off this massive world they've invented, they just aren't very artful about it.
I'm (re)building a bird feeder for my mother. I have a design I came up with that makes good use of crappy big-box cedar boards. The squirrels eventually ruin them, so I'm ready for this year's iteration.
The body is dovetailed together, which feels maybe a little over complicated, but it is a really strong joint and I enjoy cutting them.
The imgur album for the one I made five years ago is actually still up: https://imgur.com/a/mkis0Hp
The tone is much less dour than the first one, and I think it does a better job introducing the world. It's still a lot to take in, but all of the text has links you can click on that explain anything you don't recognize.
I've been replaying Pillars of Eternity II - in fact I have the tavern music stuck in my head right now. Mostly I just need some CRPG gameplay, so I'm not doing anything wildly different with my character this time around. Maybe I should do an evil run...
Knowing how the ending works, I'm still not sure which faction to go with.
That's good to know. I leave location services off on Android when I'm not using them and the possibility of a triangulation leak always nagged me a little. Not a lot, because I've never heard of any actual harm coming from it. But a little.
