I get the frustration but this is a bad take.
In a two-party, first-past-the-post system you kinda have an ethical obligation to vote for the lesser evil. It's just a statistical fact you can't ignore.
It fucking blows, but if your choices are the shitty status quo or full blown fascism, you really should pick the status quo.
Obviously doesn't fix the problem with the Democrat party sliding further and further right since they can continue to claim "lesser evil"... and it also doesn't fix the DNC superdelegate shenanigans that got us Hillary instead of Bernie... but I'd rather the country be able to still exist to fight another day.

Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck)
If you're open to doing emulation, there's a multitude of Nintendo games that are amazing couch co-op.

It be like that
Do people actually think that produce in stores sits there for a week? Most of it is gonna be restocked daily for bigger stores... like twice a week at worst.
Also, just taking your produce out of it's packaging immediately before storing in the fridge will help immensely with the moisture build up causing mold.

Basically, I could send you my configuration file (and lock file) and you could run a single command to get a system that looks/runs identical to mine.

You're confusing the metaphorical sort of "analogous" with the term "analogous" used in evolutionary biology.

Switch 2 rule
We'll just have to see how quickly we get a working emulator.
Ryubing (a fork of Ryujinx) is very good, so hopefully we'll see something stem from that.

How do I start a new instance?
Do you mean to creating a community? There's a button in the header navigation to do that. An entire instance would be overkill.
Although, you might consider checking out ![email protected] and ![email protected]. Those seem like the sort of vibe you're going for.

Must fight temptation to buy an overpriced raspberry pi
Right? I made the realization a while ago that refurbished mini PCs are a way better fit for most of my homelab needs.
Sure, if power consumption is your #1 priority then you'd want some ARM solution. But for my use cases, I've found myself fighting with software support and the relatively low computational power of even the newer RPis.
Also, T-series Intel chips (the low power ones) have pretty good idle power consumption and don't spin up the fan too much given their lower power. And a lot of uses cases require sticking a fan and heat sinks on an RPi so you lose the quietness benefit.
Also also, you (still?) need proprietary blobs to use a bunch of the hardware on RPis. You can go full open source on a regular old PC.

Looking for the Best KDE Distro – Fast, Stable, and Feature-Rich
Just jump in the deep end and install NixOS. 😉
I was seduced by the possibility of permanent "new computer smell" and it is 100% worth the fiddling: https://grahamc.com/blog/erase-your-darlings/

It broke again
The best thing I ever did was configure prime offloading so basically everything but games runs on my integrated graphics.
Still borked my graphics a few times setting that up, but I'm on nixos so it wasn't a big deal.
But before:

Sourdough is super easy though! Probably barely an hour of actual hands-on time from start to finish with no-knead methods.

Best HTPC distro?
I don't know about hottest, but on my little HTPC I'm running NixOS with KDE (mainly for KDE Connect, but it's nice to have a DE of some sort when things crash/break).
I set up flex launcher to auto start and added menu options for Kodi, Firefox, and Steam.
I used to run LibreElec. It was mostly fine, but the Kodi YouTube plugin breaks just often enough that I wanted to have a web browser as backup. Also, I eventually wanted to play/stream games to it.

It's maddening.

Right? And even on ones that don't, it's easy to sew on some strips of fabric at the corners

If you're making a starter from nothing, yeah it would likely take a week or two. But it's not difficult or very hands-on; you're just combining water and flour for a couple minutes each day and waiting for yeast rng.

Introducing Flight Blades: Shape Your Ship’s Behavior
In simple terms, Flight Blades are components that go into your ship's computer ports to adjust its flight behavior in two key ways currently:
• Speed: Increase your straight-line top speed
• Maneuverability: Improve ship handling
So you can just buy bigger numbers? If I had to pick one thing they absolutely shouldn't sell for money, it'd be this.
Like, the game has always been pretty pay-to-win, but at least there was a veneer of plausible trade-offs/pros/cons between different ships. This is just indefensible "pay money for better stats" levels of P2W.

Interesting. I'll have to see what the numbers look like once someone data mines them.
Still... thrust reallocation ^probably^ should have been a feature of normal engineering gameplay.

Ah, I think I understand. Although, my take on those dullster communities is that they're less about being a boring human but more of a recognition that a lot of tasks are pretty mundane but deserve a place to be discussed/celebrated. There may be value to be found in posting your successes and discussing them.
I don't know of any communities that are specifically about what you're looking for, but I guess you could also check in ![email protected] and ask.
