100K per year if I can stop and lose that continued money at any time.

It’s not a $60 or $70 game, but certainly is better than most of the AAA offerings of late. Maybe think of it like it’s a full priced game that’s always on sale? You do you though. I thought it was well worth the asking price.

Awesome, I was sure they wouldn’t disappoint.

Factorio goes up in price over time, so now is always the best time to buy Factorio.

Been meaning to check out the expansion, good?

As the other commenter said, time shift will save you too. Snapper built into Tumbleweed is pretty good though as well as YasT.

As an NVIDIA user, snapper has saved me multiple times.

Thank the gods for these Indian men. They’ve saved me countless times with their simple solutions to incredibly specific problems.

At what price point would this device be useful? Seems like the sort of device that was made to allow the company to be bought by Google/Microsoft/Meta.

Same probably. I’ve got a young child now so Factorio is not a responsible hobby to pick up again.

Have got two of my family members onto bitwarden and even that is a lot for the tech-illiterate. Couldn’t imagine Keepass+syncthing.

Ultimately, bitwarden is better than using hunter12 for everything like how they were.

Mountain bike riding with friends mainly. Also just bush walkkng/hiking.

Ah okay, I’m not sure then.

Was that updating with “zypper dup”? I’ve heard going through discover or zypper update isn’t the recommended way strictly speaking, so its worth mentioning.

Opensuse tumbleweed. The packages go through a testing process unlike Fedora AFAIK.

Linux, but I keep windows on the other drive just in case I need a windows only app. Rarely happens except for VR.

Beautiful architecture and streets. A lot of homelessness and rats everywhere though. Bakery food/breads were fantastic. We found people to be a lot more welcoming in rural France than in Paris.

Didn’t go during Olympics, this was pre-COVID.

Bad headline but reasonable argument within. Concord probably failed for the reasons people outlined, sure.

The point is that peoples fingers aren’t quite as on the pulse of what will make something successful as what we give ourselves credit for. We attribute reasons for something’s success or failure after the fact.

Personally, I don’t know what makes a hero shooter successful or not. A game like this could be going gangbusters for some reason in 6 months time and I would probably not understand why. I say that as someone who’s been an avid gamer over the last 30 years.

Barefoot Investor was really good for my wife and I when we joined finances. Particularly having our own “splurge” accounts means we don’t need to ask each other before buying our own personal or frivolous things.

Great answer, thanks!

What is the big difference between Cosmic and Gnome? I know System76 are developing it so I would imagine they have a problem with Gnome and their hardware business.

I used popOS! for a year and did get annoyed that Gnome required extensions that were not necessarily maintained in order to allow for what I considered to be basic customisation.

On OpenSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE now, but interested to see what the philosophical difference is between Gnome and Cosmic.
