I use Arch on my main machine, but I just got a new (old!) laptop that I'm going to set up probably with Debian. Someone mentioned I might try Devuan.... and learn about all the init stuff.... but I'm thinking I'll keep it simpler for this one and go straight Debian first.

Ah, glad to hear it! I'll definitely give it a whirl, thanks.

Dang, those are beautiful screenshots. I recently moved over to Linux and have only tried a couple of games on here, but I should see how that one works... haven't played it in a few months, and I have ways to go in it. I don't even remember what chapter I'm on.

Ah, dang, I haven't run into this yet. But I see what you mean. I actually just set this up in Linux, but back in Windows I didn't run into this problem (maybe I was lucky enough to hit the same port, or maybe I didn't have it set up entirely correctly, lol).

Yes, this is what I do, with Private Internet Access (VPN). You can bind qbittorrent to PIA's interface, and also to its forwarding port.

I'm a very recent linux convert, coming from windows where I was using Vivaldi and I quite like it. But... are there reasons to switch to something else?

Awesome, thanks! Offline is definitely more my speed, it sounds like, but, I could see getting into the dailies sometimes.

Very nice. I've only played story mode, and not all the way through yet. What are the main differences between that and online?

hmmmmmm you're tempting me to get back into this one. I think I have 60 or so hours on it? Not enough to try everything yet, but definitely enjoyed chilling in space.

Obviously, you're not a golfer.

Hah! I appreciate your honesty.

 

Hey, what's up. I've been trying to get my phone (oneplus 8) all perfect again, after I recently decided not to use fingerprint security anymore. I now use a password, which feels right, but when I'm just sitting at my desk it feels like overkill to have to retype it so many times when I'm just checking little things. So.. I'm trying one of those pretend-screen-off apps (Blackr) with which I can "turn off" the screen with a quick press, for the times when I want my screen off, but don't need full security (like, I'm not leaving my desk, cops aren't breaking down my door, etc.). Then I just double-tap the screen to turn the screen back on. If I want security, I use the actual power button to turn the screen off, and then when I open it back up it asks for my password as usual.

Anyway! I've been trying this for a day or so, and.. it just seems like my battery is draining faster. I think. Is it? I can't be sure, and I know the answer is to do some rigorous scientific testing, but I ain't got time... I knew someone(s) out here has been through the same thing and has the answer, so... anybody know? :)

Thank you!!
