I recently went through getting it to run on Linux. It’s one of the only Bungie games I haven’t played. Shockingly in depth combat, I’m enjoying it, but I’m bad at combo based fighting games, so I’m playing it in very bite sized pieces.

I don’t really carry cash, but whenever someone asks for any I offer to buy them a meal, or a train ticket or something like that. More often than not I get responses of “really” and I say “yeah! I don’t carry cash but I’m happy to help”. I also got the like monthly transit pass for my city because it’s worth it for me already, and it gives me extra taps I can give out. I’ve got a few people that I’ve helped out multiple times. One person in particular I ended up chatting with for a while and I think was super happy to have the company for an hour or so. I’ve even gotten cash for a few people because it really is so useful. Like folks don’t have IDs and bank accounts. They rely on cash a lot. Our transit system’s cards are also debit cards which is pretty cool. Local mutual aid funds are awesome, but often rely on knowing about them, or just baseline having access to them. There’s so much stigma around helping homeless folk, and giving them cash in particular. Such bs

I have a Boox tablet I quite like. The OS is somewhat heavily customized, but with some work it’s very usable and the screen is, in my opinion, a very good size. Strikes the balance of big enough for images and small text, small enough that the overall device still feels very portable. That all being said, I have not actually tried reading manga or other comics on it, so I I can’t speak to long term viability in that use case, but it handles web browsing decently enough, so I’m basing it on that a bit.

Not explicitly a trans story, but “The Free People’s Village” is a book that gave me a lot of hope in the end. It is often way to real and parallels waves events scarily well, but the story is one of persistence.

YES THIS!! I just introduced some friends to it the other night. Sparked a lot of feelings!

I randomly thought about converting all my “feeds” into RSS, but wasn’t really sure where to start. Stumbling across your post came at just the right time!! This is an awesome tool. Thanks for sharing!

I understood it all to mean, you get a layer of automation and triggers that can be used when you post to interact with data both within and beyond the scope of the actual social platform.

I’m not 100% sure this is accurate, but that’s what I got.

Making me miss home down east! Not sure there will be much, if any, snow where I am now. At least none that will stick. Used to get enough to play in here, but not anymore. I’d honestly trade having to clear it all myself just to get one decent storm a year. Glad Maine didn’t have remote learning when I was growing up, we made out like thieves with all the snow days.

How do/did you “get into the industry”? Like do I just put a sign outside my house that says “I’ll take money in exchange for sex” and start getting customers?

Asking for a friend of course.

I love lemmy for people like you!! Feel like this type of generosity just doesn’t show up on other platforms. OP please see this^

I love their YouTube videos! Had no idea this was in the works though. Thanks for posting!

I use a YouTube front end that doesn’t have a “feed” or algorithm based suggestions page. It only has a subscriptions page and the related videos side bar. I can still definitely go down rabbit holes, but they are often more focused and related to something I’m interested in, rather than devolving to slop.

Any chance on getting more info about the hardware specifics? From the sounds and looks of it this is almost exactly the scale of what I’d like and running pretty much the same things I’m thinking interested in.

4get.ca lets you select your scraper among pretty much everything else listed here, and it can be themed with my preferred color scheme right out of the box, so it gets my vote.

Maine I think loops back around to y’all territory…

I’m at least 4 of these lol, no shot I could narrow it down from there.

Also as a programmer transfem I’m obligated to say, “it’s arch btw” might want to tweak the logo on that laptop lol.

Good meme XD

4get.ca has been great for me.

Cardboard crack. That’s what we always called it as kids. To be clear we all played, and joked about being “that” into it, but yeah…there’s whales for every game, and plenty of them don’t actually have the money to be that into it.

Hi! Recovering Reddit anarchist here! Although if I’m honest it probably wasn’t until after leaving reddit I really started to understand what anarchism meant, and more openly align with it.

Ah good to know. I’m using Hyprland on my main device, but never even considered installing anything other than the default on the Garuda box.
