My new life goal is to have a 20+ acre homestead by the time I'm 50. A forever home. Somewhere semi-remote and surrounded by forest. Less people and more animals. Less technology. Less preservatives and toxins. Less noise. Less light pollution. Less reliance on anyone but myself and the land.
@mike Such an excellent post, and it may have rekindled my hardware lust just a little bit. I used to have a real passion for building PCs that were as affordable as consoles and just as powerful. (Even a short side gig selling them to friends and followers). But now I’ll live vicariously through your adventures. Thanks for sharing this, was a joy to read.
And you’ve made it to my Thunderbird RSS section <3
Pretty wild that Bethesda was like "NAH, you don't need to adjust any graphical settings for #Fallout4 on Steam Deck."
(Tip: you can add "SteamDeck=0 %command%" to the launch settings to reinstate the launcher that has said graphics settings, but still. HUGE foul on the play.)
I didn't expect to fanboy out over a Cards View update that just landed in #Thunderbird Beta 126.0b1, but here we are. I LOVE IT! It’s a MAJOR visual improvement, and I’m ridiculously proud of our UX team for landing it.
This also needs to be repeated over and over: our team growth and user growth, all the visual and technical improvements, our increasing sustainability, NONE of it would be possible without the generosity of our donors.
@thepoliticalcat And next year, I will probably wait until mid April as well. I jumped the gun with a bunch of seeds and then we got a cold snap. But… I love learning and discovering all this stuff as I go.
@thepoliticalcat Thank you! I've been hardening everything that I potted up (like the tomatoes) but it's not the cold that's decimating the garden. It's the squirrels and slugs.
@crcollins My condolences about that. My garden isn’t even mature enough to have aphids, but I’m afraid of what happens once the 10 or so tomato plants start filling out. It’s nerve-wracking!
