• Equipment: yeah, I have a decent set of speakers at home and headphones to listen while on the move. Sound quality matters, so a decent set is worth it for me.
• Albums vs random: I got used to listening stuff album-wise (with some albums not doing listening to their entirety takes away from the experience). As for favorites:
  • “Feathers & Flesh” and “Dance Devil Dance” by Avatar,
  • “Dead & Alive” by Parasite Inc.,
  • “Faceless” and “The Oracle” - Godsmack.
  • “Mezmerize” - SOAD
• Listening as the only activity: yeah, though more often than not I listen to music to drown out the world.
• Talk with others about it: too often. Though I’m afraid there’s very little ppl in my immediate surroundings that can dig into what I listen to 😅
• Spending time searching for music: not anymore, have a base I enjoy.
• Art or content: art. The feeling of chills going down my spine on a particularily well-constructed chorus / instrumental part is like no other feeling for me.

Ah, the classical “just introduce tests in a legacy codebase”, what can go wrong?

My condolences, it’s always a BITCH to handle

uses WinForms for it’s UI

Sounds like a project I wouldn’t want to contribute to 😆

Source: spent a couple years maintaining a product written in that PoS framework

So basically, this…?

‘Czkawka’ = ‘Hiccup’ in Polish. As to why he’s there - iunno, ask the devs 😅

Kinda cheating, since this game (hell, entire series; linking my fave entry) has kind of a cult following in Central/Eastern Europe.

Gothic II

Iunno how this wasn’t mentioned, but Payday 2 has a lot of catchy / going-hard songs.

Gonna leave 3:

1. Hot Pursuit
2. Evil Eye
3. The Mark

Gun in my ass

Never bothered with Queen of Cards quest, as the walkthrough of that is… Sizable, to say the least. Also, there’s only one relatively decent reward out of it (Doomtrain).

As for CC: they are a source of all rare cards besides the ones Queen has. Thus, if you want to have Vit/Str/HP Ups - they’re your best bet (also, getting enough of those makes Omega Weapon fight a breeze, you can reliably kill it without ever reaching Megido Flame and foregoing Holy War usage).

But yeah… Triple Triad is fun, especially since it translates to sth that will impact your game.

EDIT: also, you can get 3x100 Flare on your entire party on the first disc, but it’s a major PITA to get (iirc, 300 Red Dragon cards, so good fuckin’ luck). So yeah… Triple Triad brekas the game if you have the patience for it 😄

EDIT 2: also also, Queen of Cards is available at the crash site on Disc 3 as well

GL with Napoli-style pizza w/o one though

Daily-driving Nobara with NVIDIA, (almost) no issues whatsoever here.

Granted, I ain’t the person you responded to and it’s anecdotal, but… Yeah 😅

Weird. On one hand, everything is dandy. On the other… Self-hatred is simply weighing down on me and while I know I have to work on it, it’s been 2-steps-forward-1.5-steps-back type of deal.

Human psyche is fucked up. You can have everything you might need, be as successful as you can be, but if there’s anything gnawing at you, no matter how small it might be, it will murderfuck you to the deepest pits of mental hell

Well, technically, they’re 3rd party problems. But I get your point about seeing this from the end-user perspective.

And yeah, it’s DEFINITELY not fair

Seconding k3d (and, by extension, k3s). If you’re in a market for sth suitable for more upstream-compliant clustering solution (k3s uses SQLite instead of etcd, iirc), RKE2 is also a great choice

I struggled to find things to learn because I installed it and had an out-of-the-box windows experience

And that’s a good thing! Non-technically-inclined ppl are wary of instability issues and having to work with the terminal to fix their daily driver. If the OOTB experience is good and the UX is comparable or better than Windows - they will be more likely to stay.

If someone is accepting the fact that shit might go sideways, is willing to learn through experiencing issues first-hand or simply likes to spend time fiddling with their OS to find the perfect setup for them - that should be the Arch- and Arch-derivatives audience.

Iirc, a crapton of RH ppl work on Fedora, since it’s their “sandbox for RHEL” distro.

And while I fuckin’ HATE what IBM/RH BS tries to pull in some areas, it doesn’t prevent me from running Fedora derivatives daily.

Tbh, while it is funny out-of-context, I encountered the same exact thing (and I can guaran-fuckin-tee the offender used copilot for this).

It’s not funny to be on the receiving end of this, ESPECIALLY in professional environment, where you should not react like that 😅

House of Eternal Hunt

Dance Devil Dance

Well… It’s difficult to even say wtf is going on there 😅

It has entry in WineHQ that the license won’t activate, so… Yeah, it’s effed
