Looks great. I’m excited for this project.

If you have a computer background already then dive in! For a gaming rig try PopOS or Nobara.

PopOS is Ubuntu based and used Gnome. They’re hard at work on a new custom DE that appears Gnome-like. PopOS is made by hardware company System76 to improve upon Ubuntu’s support of newer hardware they wish to sell.

Nobara is Fedora based and recently switched to KDE Plasma which aligns with the Steam Deck. Nobara is specifically tweaked for gaming.

I’ve used it in a VM just to mess around. I’d like to install it on an old ThinkPad and try to compile some applications.

Hi, Brent!

Edge > Chrome. I use it at work. Much better.

Looks like a great shed TBH.

Bill Cosby comes to mind. Creepy and not at all funny. Never understood the appeal.

Fine with me if the victim wants to express forgiveness in a personal or spiritual sense but that should be irrelevant to the criminal case. There should be consequences when a Judge / court fails its duty to serve justice and protect the broader community.

My experience has been that LibreOffice will not correctly render my .csv files when they are above a certain size. Not talking about big data here either like a few thousand rows. For this reason I use OnlyOffice instead.

Of course you can use a regular oven but the bread machine makes it so easy that we bake a loaf couple times a week. FYI bread machines do it all: dump and bake style. They knead the dough and such. The machine can also make pizza dough or dough for burger buns, dinner rolls, etc. to bake in the oven. In terms of GF baking it can be pretty tricky and the Zojirushi in particular has a GF setting that delivers great results. Great value for our family.

Our household recently picked up a Zojirushi bread machine. We must eat gluten free for medical reasons and GF bread from the supermarket is very expensive around $9 for a mini loaf of bread that crumbles and molds. We are finding it very cost effective to make our own breads.

What do you want to self host? To learn or experiment buy a cheap old x86 box. I get mine at goodwill auction. Otherwise desktop is good if you want something that needs more compute and that you’d spin up as needed vs always on.

This might help with the mouse:

Pop!_OS runs great on my intel MBP.

I go with second-hand hardware. Depending on your needs might be good savings.

Make a live bootable usb of https://clonezilla.org/

Firefox for personal. I like Edge for work stuff.

I bought the nebula 49. Can't wait to get my hands on it!

I'm glad the LW admins have the foresight to consider things like this and other areas of concern. It's good to see LW admin admit when they don't know enough about something and are being cautious. I don't think Discord should be the place for any announcements though. Hopefully LW can get the legal protections or assurances necessary to host all of the content people want to see.

Writing by hand with a pen you like on nice quality paper can be enjoyable. The best for me is when I journal on my typewriter.
