Mechwarrior 5, Outward, and Dwarf Fortress

That’s angry. (0o0)

I’m with you on that. Not a cent.

I use a britta-type generica, but inky for the water that goes in the coffee machine. All drinking water goes through a local water carbon filter.

I think it’s not really fair to compare 1940s India with current American politics.

It feels somewhat like saying “the Mongolian army took over half of Eurasia with mounted archers, Ukraine should just use those against Russia!”

It’s just not comparable, different cultures, different opponents, and wildly different technology. And this isn’t just the US, it is a worldwide class war. Organized resistance on that scale, especially when the ruling elite can monitor nearly 100% of all communication, just isn’t something that’s going to happen, even with a charismatic figurehead.

My sweetspot is 5.5-6.5 hrs. (+caffine) I’m slightly on the ADHD spectrum, so the mix of bodily stress hormones and deep sleep is just right.

But that’s just me. Everyone is different.

I never was. I had an account until about 2012, but rarely used it.

being suspicious of anything foreign.

I second this. I only started playing it once it was in steam, it just wasn’t on my radar before that. Now I wish I had found it back in the day.

I certianly agree with your concern in principle, but I also think that not all corporations are evil by default. It’s important to be sceptical, but in my experience the e/OS is extremely privacy and user focused.

They partner with fairphone, they support some older hardware (etc. Samsung galaxy S7), and they have an installer app and installation intructions complete with the OS files freely available.

You even do not have to use a murena account to use the phone at all. If you perfer, you can get your apps 100% from APKs & F-Droid, and Murena doesn’t know you exist.

For me that’s enough.

You may also want to check out Murena. I have a fai-phone 5 with thier E/OS on it, I’m very happy with it, and 100% google-free.

Those were the BEST! Many fond memories, thanks for that flashback.

Their own website has a bit more info, including a demo video of it running debian. The primary focus of the project is the hardware itself, but the rasberry pi base means that there is a giant pool of available software already out there.

I am not familiar with webdav, and I’m no bazzite expert (although it’s my daily driver), but I would guess that distrobox could be a way to do this.

Either install a distrobox of arch or mint or Debian or whatever, and do the install there, or check out what distrobox has to offer for mounting WebDAV storage. I found it has options for implementing local AI that I would never have dreamed of, so who knows what else it can do?

That’s supposed to be the last resort though, when nothing else works.
