“no russian”

I always use TinEye for reverse image searching: https://tineye.com/

I had the same plan as you have, switching when win10 goes EOL. but since Microsoft decided that they would backport stuff like ads in the start menu, i just switched.

I’m a gamer, so i decided to give nobara a shot. it works really fine, and i have found only one game so far that didn’t work. Lutris and heroic launcher is everything you need, i do have the VM but i haven’t spun it up since i finished the configuration :-) a few hours in and i decided that i won’t need my windows partition anymore.

If you have a few hours spare time, give it a spin, you’ll be surprised how good gaming has gotten under linux :-)

to be fair, most of those “backups” are played once, if they suck they get thrown off instantly and if they are good they stay until the price point in the store doesn’t pain me anymore. so it’s really just a temporally displaced backup, you are right :-)

ETA: “Doesn’t pain me” depends on the content: i did not shy back from buying for example Baldurs Gate 3 at full price. Indie devs normally get full price and automatically bought DLCs too, but i’m not into throwing my cash after the Bethesdas and EAs of the gaming world.

My Steam Deck has a 512GiB SD card full of pirated games using lutris and sega genesis and nintendo ds roms on it. it is more comfortable to just buy stuff and play, which i do with titles that are worth it (thats the internal memory for), but you are not limited in any way (except that it has to work on linux)

i switched to a SearXNG instance a while ago and i am pretty happy with it!

look at https://searx.space/ to find one with a good response time for you and try out if theres something you like :-)

Nobara! switched 2 days ago, deleted my Windows partition 3 hours ago because it’s smooth sailing and quite the different experience compared to bashing my head against debian jessie ages ago.

Edit: the final nail in the coffin were the fking backported ads in the start menu. seriously, wtf.

thats the reason why i always open links with middle click to open a new tab. helps with the above fuckery too.

yup, opiates to be specific.

yeah, i only picked up that Wukong is a mythological figure after a while of playing League of Legends.

I fucked my “clicker” up with too large portions, which expanded my stomach over the years. i was NEVER satiated, because i had no way of filling my stomach up. I was always hungry. In the end and after many years of fighting my massive overweight i went for an stomach bypass. If someone tells you that this is the easy way out: they are full of shit. You have to relearn eating, and 1) that really sucks and 2) that was exactly what i needed, No more feeling hungry is a blessing.

thanks for making me aware of this initiative, just signed it!

how long can a developer continue to support a 3€ one-time-buy app with new features? Buyers run out sooner or later.

Go the Terraria route and sell merchandise!

Since it’s affidavit@lemm.ee, it would be illegal to be dishonest.

I’ll see myself out.

The flag is just a symbol for the country, and the country is something are can be proud of if you have nothing else worthwhile to form your identity around.

If i compare my 7 pure-indoor-cats and my 2 “found outdoors abandoned by mom cat at about 8 weeks age”-cats over my lifetime(not all at the same time ofc! i’m neither masochistic nor a cat hoarder), they had completely different stances towards humans; the 8 weeks without humans didn’t make the “foundlings” unfriendly per se, but far less “human bullshit”-tolerant.

i suspect there’s more nurture than nature going on here, but i have not enough resources for a double-blind study with n=500, especially regarding bed space and hands.

Looks like there is a little bit of space for a new “northernmost” murder left; southernmost is already a done deal.

That gave a really nice overview for someone who hasn’t had to dabble in IPV6 yet, thanks!

one of the Brofish has “disappeared” before they changed to Brafish, they are just smart.

I saw it free right now and wanted to inform you lol :-)
