I have a laptop running Linux Mint I only use for hosting bar trivia. I only need it to run like 4 applications but I need them to run flawlessly. The last time I updated it jacked up my soundboard, which I didn’t notice until I was in front of a crowd and it played the wrong sound effects. Never again.
Hey everyone, I live in a dorm like apartment where my Internet plan is part of my contract. I have a monthly data limit which just isn’t enough for me. Buying additional data is stupid expensive. I found out though that your used data is only calculated once you disconnect from the internet completely. So my idea is to get a...
It would be easy enough to have a raspberry pi always connected that just pings google.com or some other website every few seconds/minutes. I’m not sure that’s your best solution or even what the best solution would be, but that would be very easy to set up.
I’ve been warming up to switching to GrapheneOS for months. Last month I bought a Pixel 8 (which is the buggiest effing phone I’ve ever owned, good job Google). I’ve just been waiting to have the bandwidth....

For the sake of conversation, what’s your opinion on offering the same cosmetic skin for real money if you missed out on the limited time frame?
I’m definitely not a fan of micro transactions overall but I’m generally ok with purely cosmetic ones, within reason. I’m also not a fan of the whole FOMO “I have to have time every day to play a game I enjoy or else I won’t get the fun stuff” bullshit.
If for whatever reason you missed out on some skin or some other purely cosmetic thing should you be able to spend like $1 to get it? This helps financially support the game and doesn’t affect overall gameplay, just personal enjoyment.
