I used to work 4-10s doing labour. Those days were brutally long. Add another 3 hours? No way it would’ve been done.

Not to add all the food and gear you gotta pack for and bring along for days like that. Idk it’s brutal, especially mixing in a commute.

Aw man that’s a shame

Can’t you just download Lutris and tell it to run itch games via Wine? I have done that with one game from itch before but tbh it’s the only time I’ve tried it so it could’ve been a fluke.

If having an ad blocker and reading grocery store tags to get the best deal makes someone autistic, then like, everyone I know is autistic.

That’s the dumbest metric for measuring autism I’ve ever heard.

Just checked it out, looks good and pays out really well!

Tidal is much better anyway

I appreciate that! I’m in the states unfortunately

Thanks for the write up! It honestly sounds like it’s be fine for me. My iPhone is already extremely bare and stripped down. I barely use the camera too, so like, idk I don’t feel like I’d be missing much?

If I could buy a super cheap used one for testing, I’d do it. I’m waiting for my iPhone SE to die on me anyways before making the switch.

I really want to try a pinephone or something with Ubuntu touch. It’s likely not daily driver ready but I’m still curious at how far along it is.

YT, really Google, is just not a company I want to support. YT as a platform is not something I want to support by using. Also, data reasons.

I mostly watch folks like the Linux Experiment and Veronica Explains and Oh the Urbanity. I’ve had more luck on Nebula but I am trying to sort of “put up or shut up” by interacting with the platforms that I want to succeed. Ya know? So I just browse peer tube a lot and give random videos a shot.

I got rid of YT and replaced it with PeerTube and Nebula. Am I a bit less entertained? Sure. Am I a lot less angry? Yup.

I’m also learning a lot more because I was forced to find new content and new creators which was actually really fun.

So it listens to you and you can “permit it” to read emails and all that shit? I didn’t even know this kind of thing existed let alone that anyone would CHOOSE to allow this. Crazy.

Eating more beans and lentils has saved me a butt load of money. Tofu too but price of soybeans might be going up soon so who knows how long that’ll last.

Yeah, started using it last night and I think it’s gonna stick. No complaints so far

Same. I’m about done with all things big tech. As much as is possible at least. Orion it is! I also saw Vivaldi but I’m not super interested in all the other services that come along with it.

Anyone have any good iOS alternatives? I’m eyeing Orion currently

Zen has been really nice for the few days I’ve been using it. It feels real sleek and just more modern over all.

My computer is a bit old though and I wonder if there is something similar that is even lighter on resources. Zen is still pretty dang light though.

Dude, same. It’s been about ten years since my wife and I stopped buying from amazon. Never have I had a problem finding the things I need on eBay or Craigslist or straight from the seller.

Just order some new headphones directly from Lenovo that were the exact price as on amazon and even had free two day shipping and don’t require me to have an account. Great, no issues.

For other things, people for the love of god please buy used and local as much as you can. I live in a smaller town and can find soooooo much shit locally. Not everything but I’d say most everyday things!

Just want to shout out my fav note app QOwnNotes for folks like me just needing a super simple but also super customizable notes app. Only downside is no mobile but I get around that with a git repo.
