I gave FreeSO a try since it’s an open-source implementation of Sims Online, but the hookability wasn’t there. We’ve come so far from the days of Sims 1…

I’m waiting on the new X870 chipset boards to come out. Why buy an old board with a new processor?

It’s crazy that there isn’t a company out there making viable cold storage for the average consumer. I feel like we’re getting even further away from viability now that we use QLC by default in SSDs. The rot will be so fast.

I’m guessing that Intel’s contingency plan includes a US government bailout if they fail.

I still have no clue where permanently attached USB SSDs are supposed to be mounted. I just shove them into LVM2 and put the mapper under /mnt since putting them under /home wouldn’t let other users access them.

learned this the hard way when I started to get usrmerge errors when I tested an upgrade to Debian trixie.

I hate how I get charged overseas transaction fees for every purchase.

Support is what makes me worry about Milk-V and their flood of RISC-V products. You see videos where somebody is trying to get Ubuntu working on Mars while using some colorful language or how the same guy purchased two Meles which were DOA and it makes me wonder how thinly spread their support must be. Or perhaps how packed the Pi Foundation and community support must be.

I figured OSalt would have been near the top of the recommendations. I didn’t realize how unpopular it was I guess. It’s a little more selective in it’s recommendations (and perhaps a tad dated).

last firmware update I performed for my TV removed features, including the ability to see what resolution and framerate the set was currently displaying.

The first Deception game by Tecmo. A pretty basic game in concept: Invaders come in your castle, you set up traps, lure them into the traps. But- Something about the limiting view of first-person, combined with the poorly lit castle, chilling music, and dark story tone has never been replicated. Add on how you could customize your castle with extra hallways and rooms with special attributes, capture invaders to make your own monsters, or even use masks to change the way invaders react to you… mmm, now I want to play it again.

I tried playing the second, third, and Trapt, but everything after the first game switched to a more action-oriented third person view and started to shy away from the heaven/hell connection.

I wouldn’t mind if it was a game outside the Deception IP. I just want the atmosphere back.

UI designers have had a war on information density for a loooooong time.

ooh, umm. I actually haven’t played it since 2018. I can’t speak for Enhanced Edition as that came out like a month after I completed the campaign.

I assume you’ve already checked your model on the Supported Devices table?

There are so many variations of the WRT54G that it may be difficult for someone to answer the question.

Why do I get the weird feeling that they wouldn’t use Xbox, but rather Zune, if they did.

Dang, I scanned the suggestions and didn’t see this one before posting!

Divinity Original Sin 1 & 2

Edit: Oh, Neverwinter Nights

It was supposed to patch Secure Boot, not demolish GRUB.

That’s why it’s a problem.

Unfortunately I don’t have any recommendations I can give you as each enclosure could use a different chipset. It seems that the brand does not have a good reputation for compatibility but that list is fairly old at this point. All I can say is if you find an enclosure you like, plug the model number into the raspberry pi forum and see if anybody had to add it to the quirks list.
