Why commit pergury when you can have fun with a low level crime that won’t be followed up on cause they want people to be honest on security clearance questions?

My brother does acid once a year to make himself ineligible for security clearance.

His company wants him to get security clearance so he can work on government contracts.

My most used distro in the past few years is CachyOS.

Recently swapped to Bazzite because I got tired of the papercuts of running Arch. I also wanted to move to one of the official supported Distros that is supported by my laptop in case I ever need to make a support ticket.

Steam OS on Steam Deck. Fedora on Framework13 cause reliability. Garuda Mokka on Framework16 cause pretty and it just works.

May move from Garuda back to OpenSuSE Tumbleweed or CachyOS at some point.

I’m still using Gmail, mostly cause of how much of a hassle it is to change to a new email address. Shit like this is really making me find motivation to switch.

It’s a game I’m definitely looking forward to after I get a gpu upgrade for my laptop. A 7700s just doesn’t cut it.

Started playing it, decided to wait for later.

I have a physical copy of Heavy Gear 2 native for Linux. Tried getting it to work some time during late Covid era and just gave up and pirated the windows copy to run through Lutris.

Going forward I think that flatpaks can be great to keep things running in the future, or app images or bottles.

Just, something that installs a specific version of the libraries it needs for that game only separate from the rest of the system

Just containerize native linux games.

Looked it up and someone had it running via a steam deck so looks like you’re set.

And it gets worse, through system updates there are old native games that no longer work on modern systems. Meanwhile I can grab a random windows game from the 90s or early 2000s and it’ll probably work via proton.

My usb port on my phone is busted so I’m limited to wireless only, it takes so damn much longer to charge.

I liked wireless charging a lot more when it wasn’t my only option.

In the article they do post about “investor concerns”

I have two friends playing PoE2 in windows and they have had tons of problems with the game crashing.

I’m running it in linux and I’ve had one crash in 65 hours of playtime.

Pan fried this stuff was good, mixed in with a bunch of stuff in a rice cooker, just awful. Every other fake meat I’ve tried works fine for lazy rice cooker cooking, not this stuff.

Pong. My dad had a old Atari pong system.

I’m partial to the 8bitdo Pro 2. Comfortable and has two back buttons.

Gentoo was my second linux Distro ever some time in 2003 or 2004.

Installed it by printing out the full install doc, which was like 30 or 40 pages, and starting up a stage one install. I got through the entire install by following the instructions because the documentation was that good.

I remember having a problem and hopping on an irc chat to ask for help and people there being baffled about the basic level questions I was asking while having a working Gentoo install.

I have $25 wired IEMS that sound better than my most expensive Bluetooth tws sets. I’ve taken to just listing to podcasts and YouTube videos with my Bluetooth sets at work.

I used to be a big fan of Samsung, but over the past couple years it has become a do not buy brand for me. They keep doing anticompetitive stuff with their phones so my next phone won’t be one.

Start of 2024 my Samsung TV that wasn’t that old up and died. And my less than a year old Samsung monitor is flickering.

My watch 6 classic is my favorite smart watch I’ve ever had, but in order to get it working well on a non Samsung phone you need to go through a bunch of bullshit hassle.

It’s also likely that he was never intending to share them. One of the things he was looking to do is aquire a large dataset to analyze trends.

In other words, he was charged for entirely legit use.
