    I've been playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance (the first one) and only just gotten past the prologue. It definitely seems like something I'll enjoy and I've honestly loved reading all the codex entries about medieval Bohemia, but also I'm absolutely terrible at the sword fighting.

    I've still been playing lots of Deadlock and I'm back to being terrible, I guess. I don't know why, this game makes me so angry but I can't stop playing ahahah. At least with games like Counter Strike if I go on a losing streak I just get kinda annoyed and stop for a bit but Deadlock I can't! :P

    FWIW, X-Plane natively supports Linux :P though, the world definitely doesn't look remotely as good as MSFS and their petabytes of map images

    Episode 1 spoilers

    I'm an American but I lived in Schaffhausen, Switzerland (okay, technically Diessenhofen, but I went to school in Schaffhausen and my dad's office was in Bahnhof Schaffhausen) as a kid and every time they're in Europe I've been waiting for them to go there and I finally got Adam and Ben through! They only showed Rhine Falls but it was still really cool to see :)

    I was genuinely on the edge of my seat while Adam was playing that, it was amazing and hilarious at the same time.

    Cool, I'm a Stars fan and enjoyed watching the two Stars v. Panthers games in Finland this season. Probably biggest negative of it is that basically means your team has ~2 weeks less in the season (depending on scheduling) so expect a lot of back-to-backs later in the year, especially since the Olympics will also take a couple weeks out of the season like the Four Nations did this year.

    For what it's worth, there totally is good modern country by primarily-country artists, it's just not necessarily the stuff that gets on the radio. Orville Peck is one I can think of just off the top of my head, but I'm sure there's loads more, I'm just not a huge country fan either way.

    As an American, what does it mean for Carney to not have a seat in the House of Commons? As in, what are the implications of it?

    He doesn’t have a seat in the House of Commons, so there is speculation — and Carney has hinted — that he will call an election soon, before Parliament is scheduled to return on March 24.

    That's actually what I use normally, but I have to launch it directly from Google TV instead of the Apple TV that I use for everything else. E: oh, also can't use SmarTube on the Roku TV in my bedroom

    I have one on an actual Raspberry Pi 4B and another instance running the OCI image of PiHole in an Incus set up on my NAS that's running Gentoo. In reality, I don't really need two instances because those are both pretty much running 24/7 and, if they're not, there's usually something else going on with my network (like a power outage or whatever). I really only reboot either the NAS or the Pi for kernel updates so not super often, but it's nice to know that, when I do reboot, I should still have DNS and my girlfriend won't yell at me lol.

    I actually did only have the actual Raspberry Pi for far longer than I've had both instances, but I set up the second because why not. After my move, I did make sure to test dig @<IPv4 & IPv6 of both instances> <various domains> to make sure everything was working again so I don't think that should be causing any issues.

    My router does have logs (I'm just running OpnSense) but I probably need to figure out more about how to read them. Also, I added this to an edit in the main post, but I think it's possible that a wind storm in the area was just causing some instability yesterday 🤦‍♂️ everything has looked fine since the wind stopped and the wind did cause some local power outages that, in turn, caused some local Spectrum outages that could've been part of the issue.
