  • Why do people hate coldplay?

  • What is the oldest electronic you own?

    Jump

  • An originally original gameboy. Still worked until about 2 years ago. I assume there's just a little battery or a capacitor that needs replacing, but I haven't had the time to look into it.

  • Sovol SV08 or Prusa MK4S

    Jump

  • I have a prusa M4 with multi-material head, and I am super happy with it. It started as a M3, and has been upgraded twice to become what it is today.

    It was expensive, but prusa really does have great support for free, which is worth a LOT. And the upgradability means you end up spending less if you keep with the hobby over years.

    But one caviat, I have the printer set up and my friend's house, because he has more space and free time. So most of what I know about it comes from his experience, not mine. I do lots of CAD, but I don't often actually touch the printer myself.

  • I'm building a Tux-based Game Studio

  • If you could use some of the Tuxcart resources/engine, perhaps a vehicle-based battle game with a garage for customization of your vehicle?

  • I'd say keep it simple to start. Perhaps a turn-based tactics game like final fantasy tactics advance, or more 3D, like XCOM?

  • Do you use userscripts or other automation options like autohotkey? Which ones do you find most useful? Could you recommend some good sources(including lemmy communities) that are on the topic?

  • I replied to someone else in this thread, you an just read it there, OK?

  • I use Obsidian for daily task and project management, but also to play / manage TTRPGs. So Joshua Plunkett is my go-to guy for this purpose.

    Some of the tools/plugins he uses are generally useful, so even if you don't play TTRPGs he is a great resource.

    This is a guide with an example vault that does a great job of showing what obsidian can do. It's the best I've found so far.

    https://forum.obsidian.md/t/i-created-an-all-in-one-productivity-template-for-obsidian-task-management-gtd-para-goal-tracking-reviews-and-more/85792

    And now for my favorite plugins.

    Here are my must-have community plugins:

    • dataview (an absolute must)
    • meta bind (a powerful metadata upgrade)
    • tasks (a must for to-do lists in obsidian)
    • quickadd (great for partially automating repetitive tasks)

    I have others installed, but these four are the ones I'm actually using 95% of the time.

    I also use Obsidian sync to synchronise across devices. It works like a charm and isn't expensive, but there are also great free options for synching if you are so inclined to do a little setup work. Also, if you already have a cloud service, you can just define a could folder as your vault, and that works too as long as you never work offline.

    And lastly, my one bit of advice:

    Simpler is better. This program is incredibly flexible and powerful, and it will be tempting to install every plugin you come across. It is REALLY easy to get lost in the endless options, and constantly be installing new shiny plugins, redoing your vault over and over again to use new features you just found out about.

    It's better to really learn a few plugins, and use them to actually make you life easier. If dataview + tasks alone can make a process 90% automated, then it's not really worth your time to do a deep dive into some other plugin that could get you to 92%.

    I hope this helps!

  • This is not exactly an answer to your question, but I thought I would share anyway.

    I use Obsidian for all sorts of PC work, and there are a multitude of plugins and scripts to automate and organise all sorts of tasks. I have no need for any scripts outside of this program.

    Edit: let me know if you are interested and want some tips. There are a million tutorials and articles out there too.

    Okay why is your distro the best?

    Jump

  • I haven't had any problems like that, but I generally don't leave my screen on. So perhaps I would have this issue, but just never notice it because of how I use the device.

    I'm very conscious of energy use, I almost always manually set my laptop to sleep if I'm leaving it idle for a while.

  • Bazzite just works, it runs every game I have with zero fuss, it's easy to run Windows programs / emulators / local LLMs, AND it's basically unbreakable.

  • Find your tribe

  • Thank for sharing, this is truly an inspiration.

    Jump

  • Mechwarrior 5 mercenaries with mods that add lots of lore-accurate content and additional equipment/loadout options.

    I'm just starting to get some of the bigger mechs, and the carnage is epic and loads of fun. The short missions are also great for me as a busy father.

  • What are your favorite Tactical RPGs?

    Jump

  • I second that opinion. It seemed shallow and easy at the beginning, but turned out to be a really entertaining and challenging game. I also love how the characters age, develop, and eventually retire.

  • Do we really know anything?

    Jump

  • Maybe it's not. Maybe we are all tiny parts of same consciousness that creates the dream, which makes it consistent based on our shared expectations, or shared subconscious, or whatever connection it is that makes us one. Or something along these lines.

    That would explain the consistency without relying upon rigid materialist laws.

  • I wish. Just an overworked TTRPG-Obsessed father. I'm currently playing a gnoll, so I tend to look at real world problems through the lens of a big hairy dude.

  • I hate mosquitoes too, but why do we keep insisting on changing/eliminating other creatures to suit us? Let's modify OURSELVES to smell like citronella, or better yet, let's make ourselves grow a thick coat of luscious, too-thick-for -mosquitoes fur! That should be relatively easy, and it would come with other benefits too.

    I'm truly happy for you if is that easy for you, but addiction of any sort can be a removed, and it's not just a matter of willpower.
