    I also miss my pebble,. Mine was smashed (boring story heavy box on top of it), and no smartwatch has quite filled the void of it.

    I read I think on reddit that it would be a standalone game? I don't know it sounds kind of fun, it reminds me of Kirby air ride a little, except the lack of pvp which I am honestly okay with. I think it will be a fun little side game but I don't expect it to be a massive game that changes everything. Maybe it is just them exploring a new concept? I don't think it will be monumental but I think it will be quite fun!

    Honestly same, like was the wording a little silly, maybe. I get what the author is saying, and maybe the wording was silly but....it is nevertheless still a good point to be made, and I am glad they said it. Truthfully I think not being averse to a platform being okay with hosting nazis is maybe something people need to think introspectively about but what do I know.

    If I had to guess the hope would be that by not calling it substack people would be less inclined to use substack to fit that niche? Hope that makes sense

    I have been playing Tactical Breach Wizards, it is quite fun! At first I wasn't a fan of the humor, but it has grown on me and I enjoy the characters quite a bit. The gameplay is very fun and for a tactical game, very forgiving which I enjoy a lot as I am not good at them haha. The extra challenges feel honestly really rewarding for what is just unlocking cosmetic skins and really add to the game!!

    Going to read through responses later, but as a weirdo queer leftist person into strange art also struggling to find friends post graduation I wish you good luck!!! It may be worthwhile to look into any activist groups near you, personally I would say try and stick to ML groups but really any leftist group should be a good jumping off point!

    I definitely agree, and I also really you're right....I just fear the worst for anything Hasbro related. But fingers crossed! And to be honest I don't think they will undo it, it would also undermine the whole idea of them working with the RC which it seems like they are going for.

    I am concerned that they will undo the ban, at least for jeweled lotus, because it was a chase card, and an easy way to sell packs. Hopefully, as you said, they have the foresight not to do that...

    Oh another tip I have is to move your nixos config, I have mine in ~/Documents/nix which is also tracked by git! The only thing you need to change in your command is just specify a path, so for me the command is nixos-rebuild switch --flake ~/Documents/nix (also sidenote I would alias this, I have mine set to rebuild-nix)

    You are welcome to explore my git repo located here (I know it says i don't know what I am doing, but everything works quite well, and I tried to comment stuff as much as possible)! and feel free to ask if you have any questions! I really like nixos, and it was definitely worth the effort to learn! I run it on my desktop, and my laptop which you can see in my config, I have two directories in the host directory.

    Yes! I have started it using it this past summer, with relatively no programming background. It is a lot of upfront time for long term payoff which is why i decided to learn it. In terms of resources I highly highly recommend videos by Vimjoyer on youtube, ill link some of the main ones I found helpful. I also joined his discord, and the people on there are super super helpful. Like I said I am not a programmer by any any means but through their help I feel way more confident about nixos, and I use hyprland, home-manager, and flakes so there was a lot of new learning on my end.

    My tip is to use flakes, I can't really tell you what they are beyond ensuring youre pulling from a specific source, but I think they probably make more sense if you are a programmer of some sort

    this is a useful flakes guide
    this is his ultimate guide and it is I think what i followed most in getting setup
    And again his channel in general covers just about everything you need to get started. Fwiw I really like hyprland so if you're up for the challenge i say go for it! There are a lot of helpful resources on the channel, and in his discord!

    In terms of packages I recommend using Search.nixos.org to search for things!

    Sorry if I am misunderstanding your problem, but for .ssh/config, you could use the ssh-agent to forward your keys and such I think? This video might do better at showing what I am thinking

    Well, I think you kind of answered your own question a little. Having them publicly shared means you can easily share them with other people! Of course if you want private bookmarks you can save them via your browser. Also its nice that at least with firefox sync I can access my bookmarks across all my instances of firefox...until I use a computer where I am not logged in to firefox, and I really don't want to either, being able to access bookmarks without logging in to my firefox account can be really helpful. Having a nice UI helps a lot for organizing

    I just thought of another reason while scrolling through the linked page, it can act as a link aggregator and with the use of tags you can find new sites and resources
