On my daily commute, I would normally pass 2 or 3 cars for sale parked out in people's front yards. Last I counted, that number was 12. More if I were to include other things suddenly for sale, like boats, bikes, and golf carts.

Perfect is the enemy of good.

Have one unraid lifetime license, just paid for a second license yearly for my backup off-site machine. Been using truenas on the off-site, but its primary storage is USB which I didn't realize truenas isn't fond of. Ah well. It'll be a little easier this way, anywho.

In grade school I remember looking up at a brightly colored sign above the door that read, "you are not your circumstance." Decades later, I still think about it as a reminder to treat myself and others a little better.

I'm about halfway through reading the book and this is how I find out there's a show! Feels hard to imagine this being anything more than a miniseries, but heck I'll take it.

For some, particularly businesses reliant on software that can't perform on anything but Windows (and occasionally MacOS), sure. For individuals it is much easier. Installed Linux Mint a few months ago and I set up a VM for the stuff I truly needed some form of Windows for (tried dual booting for a bit but found that inconvenient). None of these are insane lengths, unless the cutoff for that is, "anything above minimal effort."

I'm pretty new to Linux (currently on Mint) and I have yet to get Easy Effects to work. I'm certain I'm the problem, but I've tried following guides and videos, yet as soon as I try using it, my friends on Discord say my audio becomes garbled and robotic. One of these days I'll sort it out. One of these days lol

I see mention of Foundry, I upvote. My friends and I have been using it for a couple years and still find new ways to be impressed by it.

What are the rules? 🎵

[–] Artaca 8 points 5 months ago

Promise me you'll never follow another rule for as long as you live, shirt brother.

I am also to relocate my gaming and PF2e groups to either Revolt or Matrix. I thought Revolt was also US based and so consensus was it will likely follow in Discord's footsteps a few years down the line. I guess then you just migrate again which isn't the end of the world.

 

I am a registered architect. As an active contributor to one of the most damaging industries to our climate (construction & building systems), I often daydream about pivoting careers into something more productive for the planet. I'm not talking about stuff like green washing or ~LEED accreditation~. Even sustainably-focused jobs are hard to come by and usually pretty regionally specific. Architects have a broad set of skills, and it's not always clear where I can take those skills and put them to better use.

Any thoughts/insight would be appreciated as I hop into my mid-life crisis before 30.
