WilfordGrimley,

The Moon Wars of 2055 and 2072, and the Martian invasion of 2103.

WilfordGrimley,

You grow more love with every precious moment you share with each child.

WilfordGrimley,

I still mine Ergo. It’s a PoW smart contract platform (like Ethereum) but it’s UTXO like (Bitcoin or Monero).

Lots to like about the chain. I turn some of my mined ERG into SigUSD (algorithmic stablecoin) and then loan it to a lending pool. Currently make 94%APR in USD that way. Been like that for several months.

WilfordGrimley,

Ask Trump, he’s good at that kind of thing.

WilfordGrimley,

ARM as host??? There is hope yet for a PineBook Qubes image!

From Windows to about 6 recommended distros for gaming.

I am not bad with computers and have a beginner+, maybe intermediate level knowledge of Linux and I kept running into some problems here and there with different distros. Most claimed to work out of the box (which may be the case for some users, but I have a shit ass Nvidia 1060 and that was not at all the case, until I...

WilfordGrimley,

Rosen Bridge as a self custodial solution via Ergo would work nicely for BTC and XMR.

WilfordGrimley,

Do you use ReVanced with the default Play Music app? What are the advantages?

Wikipedia is gauging interest for an extension that uses AI to see if any claim is cited on Wikipedia (meta.wikimedia.org)

A prototype is available, though it's Chrome-only and English-only at the moment. How this'll work is you select some text and then click on the extension, which will try to "return the relevant quote and inference for the user, along with links to article and quality signals"....

WilfordGrimley,

These work perfectly on any chromium browser like Brave fyi.

WilfordGrimley,

I’ve been happy with Alterna for 9 years.

WilfordGrimley,

I would use Bazzite 100%. It’s an atomic fedora spin that aims to replicate SteamOS. It has a KDE Nvida variant, and comes preinstalled with all of the gaming software and optimizations you need out of the box. All that is required to update it is a restart.

Just switch to X11 from Wayland after first boot and you’re as good as gold. (If Wayland works fine with your card it may be a better option because I think it plays more nicely with BigPicture mode if you need that)

WilfordGrimley,

This is how I buy all of my single player games.

If anyone hasn’t tried it, highly recommend ‘demoing’ Outer Wilds.

WilfordGrimley,

Use SimpleLogin and Bitwarden for everything. I never use the same email or password anywhere and can turn off receiving emails from the source for each account.

WilfordGrimley,

No aim assist in DRG? Engineer with dual sentries and Loki Smart Rifle says hello.

WilfordGrimley,

Fallout 76.

The game is really fun now. Only downside is the monetization (subscription model for infinite storage space)

Even better with friends in my opinion.

WilfordGrimley,

You could pass through one GPU to a VM running zoom if you wanted to get hardcore.

WilfordGrimley,

In an immutable setup on Fedora (trying to main Bazzite) is the correct way to use zsh and oh my zsh as my main shell to use rpm-ostree to install it, or should I be using distrobox or Nix/Fleek?

WilfordGrimley,

You mentioned LoL. Dota 2 is really fun if you guys haven’t tried it, highly recommend. Biggest thing to get used to compared to LoL is the movement (most heroes have a turn speed)

can nix for gaming pirates lead to easy piracy

nix allows for flakes which are 100% reproducible (ie. you copy paste a flake it would do the intended stuff only) , this make me realize that now we can have flakes for games like do you want inscryption , sure add this flake and this would install all dependencies and lutris etc. and you just have to link us to the...

WilfordGrimley,

I think Flatpak or AppImages would be a more appropriate distribution method, as much as I love nix and flakes.

WilfordGrimley,

The neat and confusing thing about nix and flakes is that you don’t need to be using the OS to benefit from using nix as a home manager/ package installer.

Fleek is a good example.

WilfordGrimley,

Nobara=mad respect to Glorious Eggroll

Bazzite is fucking cool because it uses the OCI framework. It is designed to be immutable and be run rootless(like SteamOS) so your base system just can’t break. Everything is sandboxed against everything else by default. Using Fleek/Nix you can even run software from the cloud.

github.com/castrojo/awesome-immutable This is an excellent resource on immutable OSes.

Cheeky PS: You can overlay an OCI image of Nobara’s enhancements onto Bazzite with something like this github.com/VinnyVynce/silvernobara
