Pilots aren’t paid to manually fly the aircraft from A to B. They’re paid to handle emergencies and abnormal situations. The kind of situations that automated systems are extremely poor at handling.

Any of the classic valve games (half life, portal, and their sequels). If auto shooters are your thing, vampire survivors is less than a small coffee. Dead space (the remake) is $15. Halo MCC is $10. Titanfall 2 is $3. The “new” tomb raider trilogy are all less than $5 each or get the bundle. Alan wake is $5. Prey is $3. And Batman Arkham origins is $2.

Just a handful of good games for cheap. There’s many more out there.

I’d have to say I’m eager to see an official release of the rust cosmic desktop from system76. I know it’s going to be fairly bare bones and I know you can already download it and play around with it. I’m just excited for another option.

The plane is 7 years old. This isn’t a Boeing issue, this is a Southwest maintenance issue. Engine cowlings are regularly removed for maintenance. If a latch or latches aren’t properly secured or suffer from excessive wear then this is the outcome. I get the disdain for Boeing, but it should be based on issues of their negligence, not the negligence of their customers.

They don’t even care if you eat your own food during a flight. The flight attendants only concern is that the tray table is up during takeoff and landing. Aside from that, eat (almost) whatever you want.

Look into Grimmory, the replacement for booklore. Apparently it’s the same maintainers just a fork since the creator of booklore closed it down (no major changes yet, just housekeeping). I’m happy with it.

If you want pure cooking, Alton Brown has been posting weekly on Saturday’s. Good eats style.

GN has a fairly thorough review and comparison of the Oled deck vs the asus ally. There’s pros and cons to each. https://youtu.be/egdV0NLoL-c?si=7ZdbYdMzG2PbJy0T

I didn’t get it during the sale, but Cocoon. Such a fun little puzzle game with great art direction. It’s well worth its price tag despite being a fairly short game.

Tunic is on my list and I’ll probably pick it up later this week.

Not exactly what you’re looking for, but something to keep an eye on. The slate truck is under $30k with roughly 200 miles of range. It remains to be seen if it’s any good though.

Just to clarify because I like specifics. It was a PSA CRJ 700. PSA is a wholly owned subsidiary of American Airlines.

I did the same search today and found out that teamspeak just got updated to a more “modern” UI and feature set. While it is still proprietary software, it’s more feature complete than a lot of the other FOSS alternatives.

I occasionally use privacy.com. They let you connect your checking/savings account and generate cards where you can set expenditure limits or make it a single use card. I’ve found it particularly useful for recurring payments.

I’ve been using proton for a couple years now. I trust and like the services they provide. Plus they regularly perform third party audits and make the results public. https://protonvpn.com/blog/no-logs-audit

I swapped to it on my phone browser to give it a try. So far I’m liking it. Reminds me when Google used to be good.

I wonder if there’s a way to rank fully LLM generated websites lower than ones with content written by a person.

I’ve been using proton pass for a while now while keeping my subscription going for Bitwarden. Ended that one today. Keeping an eye on Alias Vault to see how its future security audit pans out.

TRaSH guides do a very good job explaining how to set up the file structure and configure each app. YAMS (yet another media server) is a script that automates the arr install. Looking at their docker compose file and guide could also help.

I’ve been paying for proton mail for a couple years now. Decided to stick with Bitwarden when proton announced their password manager as I liked it more. Based on this fiasco I gave it a second look and so far I’ve been liking it. I haven’t committed to abandoning Bitwarden, but I’m certainly on track to.

I can’t disagree with mint being a good distribution, because it is.

I personally think for someone just starting out in Linux that an immutable distribution like fedora silverblue (gnome) or kinoite (kde) is the safest route to take. They’re difficult to break. I personally use bazzite on my framework laptop and it’s basically hassle free. Not for everyone, but they work well.
