Disney is gouging customers with a near doubling of subscription costs.
Stuff like this is the reason I built a NAS a few years ago.

Can I change my region on an existing install, or do I need to/should I do it on a fresh install?

First time using Steam+Proton in Linux. HOLY SHIT!

I am also a music producer and I would like to switch to Linux but feel like I would be giving up too much. Do you have any tools you would recommend to make it easier to switch and places I can do some reading you would be willing to share?

Windows 10 and its shortage of "Never shove this screen in my face again" buttons

I really enjoy Linux Mint and it is what I have been using for a while. Maybe give that a try if you have not already? If you want something with more up to date features and packages, maybe try Fedora. I have not really used it personally, but I am thinking of giving it a spin on one of my machines and seeing if I like it.

Windows 11 24H2 goes from “unsupported” to “unbootable” on some older PCs

I too do pro audio work. I don't like Windows and love Linux and have several laptops running Linux Mint, but I don't think Linux is quite where I want it to be for me to switch fully for audio work. So I consider using Windows just an occupational hazard of sorts for now.

POLL - Will you stay on lemmy?
Yes. I am liking the experience so far and it has gotten me interested in the rest of the fediverse. There are a few user experience kinks that I think need working out and a few bugs I have run into, but I think they will be fixed with time and they are not deal breakers for me.

I tried to get my friend group to move to Signal from FB messenger because I did not want that nasty shit on my phone anymore. They were not interested at all and acted like it was the most inconvenient thing in the world. I ended up uninstalling FB messenger anyway and only check it on my desktop and rarely respond now unless it is a one on one conversation or directed at me in a group chat. I told them if they want/need to get in touch with me right away to use old school SMS or actually call me.

If you could play one game for the first time all over again, what would it be?
Spyro the Dragon as I was back in the day. That game has always been so magical for me.

That is an old phone! Makes me wish my OnePlus One did not break. I miss that phone, I would probably still be using it if it hadn't.

Spotify is going to break every Car Thing gadget it ever sold

I use a combo of streaming stuff I bought on Bandcamp with their app and playing local files. In addition to albums and EPs, I have bought a lot of singles on Bandcamp. I put all the singles in a giant constantly growing playlist on the Bandcamp app and then set it to random shuffle. It takes more effort than using something like Spotify, but I personally like it a lot more because it's only full of music I know I like and I feel satisfied because I supported the artists I like.

Found out what is happening. Apparently the domain was supended, but they said they should be back up eventually.

I actually really liked the remakes. Pretty much just as good as the originals imo. Sorry you did not enjoy it anymore :(

Ah, I see. Fair enough. I am glad that they exist too. It is pretty impressive imo. Since they did not have the source code and had to do some really fancy stuff to remake the game.

I never thought of that, thank you. I might give that a try. I am not the biggest fan of external stuff though.
