Haven’t played in a while but I seem to remember your workstations would lose their parameters when destroyed. Is that a thing, or did I make that up?

Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes

Note: can’t play this with my wife. She has gotten me killed many, many times.

Out of the loop:

I don’t need controllers for switch, but I use a handful of old DS4 and occasionally a DualSense on my PC. Any advantages to an 8bitdo? I haven’t used one of theirs since an older SNES-looking one.

Idk how to edit my comment on this app, but my password keeper (KeePass) and vault (Cryptomator) are also FOSS fwiw.

Really jumped in the deep end with your research, huh? :)

I guess a good place to start would be deciding what actually bothers you. Megacorp sucks because of [shitty capitalism, shady labor practices, locking down devices, privacy, insert other complaint]. Weigh those against the benefits you get.

My biggest concern is generally privacy and monetization of my data, but I still use an iPhone because my family wouldn’t get off my case about ease of sharing photos, videos. So I only have the iPhone. Don’t buy anything else from them. I turn off as much tracking and data collection as possible. I only have two outward-facing files in iCloud — my encrypted password keeper so that I can access it both from phones and mobile, and an encrypted file vault that can only be opened if you first get into the password keeper.

FWIW on the FOSS side, I still use Linux. I used to use GrapheneOS on a Pixel 5a that worked otherwise well.

I do agree that it’s the same thing recycled over and over.

If anyone does want to play them again, I highly recommend emulating them and accelerating the emulation to 2.5 or 3x speed. Makes it much more tolerable.

I’ve played Diablo 2 so much that I’ve come up with all sorts of weird challenges or builds. For example, I made it to nightmare difficulty without ever attacking a monster or using an offensive skill (pacifist).

Is that a RG35XX? I have a Miyoo Mini + and really like it but my hands do start to hurt after 30-45 minutes.

Maybe I’ll find someone to gift it to so I can upsize.

Cannibalism, etc.

You can set up afk farms in Terraria to find rarer items :)
