Yeah but I think Linux VM is more convenient for me as I don’t have to switch back and forth between operating systems. I can have both operating systems in front of me at once.
I can keep the VM running while playing games with my friends on the Windows host.
I kind of like having Linux on a VM in Windows. I only use Linux for things like web browsing or writing papers which a VM can do. For gaming, I prefer Windows to avoid any problems I might encounter (like anticheats).
This gives me a near-ideal set up with access to both Linux and Windows. I just wish my Linux VM can do 120+hz and GPU passthrough.
It’s time to learn Dwarf Fortress.
I absolutely love Doom. Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal are some of the best singeplayer FPS games I’ve played.
Slay the Spire: surprisingly addicting for a simple card game. I played other online card games in the past and its the first I enjoyed deck building. I got fed up though because I lost to the third boss in my Watcher run. I’m doing an Ironclad run again because he’s my favorite.
Oxygen Not Included: I put almost 30 hours in my first two days. I like Rimworld more for the combat but it’s still pretty fun.
I’m thinking of buying Civilization V on Steam. I’m fed up with League of Legends, I need something else to play especially for the summer.
I also really like the tunnels feature. It makes self hosting at home easy for those under NAT/CGNAT or whatever it was called.

I’ve been using GIMP for so long and I don’t know how to use Photoshop so all the “weird” things about GIMP is normal for me.
Also feel like if I learn Photoshop, I’ll never touch GIMP again. D:
I really like SVT. AOM (or whatever the default was for ffmpeg) was terribly slow. Now I have to try out rav1e.
Unplug the computer? Got it.
Porkbun asks for your ID now so that might not be “privacy-respecting” but their CS is very helpful from my experience.
I have domains in Netim and Spaceship, and I have no problems with either so far.
There used to be a subreddit called r/unexpecteddebian or something. I think it’s gone now.
pict-rs has the option to compress images. Ours is set to WEBP with 1280 pixels either side max.
ArchWiki has a list: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Discord#Third-party_clients
Ripcord is really unique and it’s still my favorite third party client. Abaddon might be worth trying. Unfortunately, most other third party clients are wrappers.
I just checked and while I do have the option and set it to true, I couldn’t load the JXL images on this page.

I don’t remember which update it was but newer versions of Lemmy use significantly less database storage.
I use vmware and it’s an okay experience for me.
