So, we're just talking Steam - that means I can keep playing Fortnite either way. And my GOG library I suppose :>

From Steam I'd pick:

  • Beat Saber, it's my sport
  • Stellaris, so I can keep playing it with my SO

There is a difference between "not putting the work in to make it run on Linux" vs. "actively preventing it to run on Linux"

Netflix DRM is an example of the latter, just like Epic disabling their Linux-support in EAC for Fortnite.

My Amiga 500 is from 1987.
But I think the stereo & LP player in the living room is from the early 70s.

I generally suck at playing shooters with controllers but I was looking forward to try the Gyro controls for Fortnite.

You can as a workaround play Fortnite on the Deck via XBox Live in a browser. But there you don't have Gyro controls :(

Peewees is referred to kids in amateur sports between 12-13 years of age

that's probably the missing piece of information for most ^^'

There are many VRChat world like this, and some of them quite photorealistic

Used to be addicted to only coffee but an Ireland trip introduced me to the idea of tea with milk.
Now it's coffee during working hours, Yorkshire tea with (vanilla soy) milk otherwise.

Why?
I am addicted to coffein and really like the taste of (milky) tea
I can also justify my addiction with the various health benefits from both coffee and tea (which even complement each other a bit).

I also have some green matcha tea occasionally, or a Matcha Latte, as I find the taste of matcha rather intriguing.

Hmm, interesting.
I live in a place where hot water is either from a continuous flow heater, so basically no extra circulation; or from a small under-sink water heater where the water is kept at safe temperature and the distance to the tap is near zero.

But I guess in places with these big, central hot water storage thingies what the article says makes sense.

Ich sag mal so, im Alltag ist mir jemand mit einem nerdigen T-Shirt ästhetisch ansprechender als jemand mit einem bügelglatten, geknöpften Hemd.
Ich dekoriere meine Wohnung aber auch mit Evolis und Gemälden von Indie-Künstlern. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, undso :)

Entirely depends on where you live.
In Germany, generally tap water is food safe, whether cold or hot.

But I also hear in Britain it's often a seperate tap, as the hot water used to come from a local storage cistern where it could be contaminated.

I'm glad that works for you!

In my house we have roller shutters and they make you see nothing.
I've been at places without proper shutters.. tried sleep masks.. and they don't fully block light nor do they stay in place after even a single turn in bed. I ended up wrapping one of my black stockings around my head like a blind fold to actually sleep. >.<'

 

As per their Polish announcement article, the team from the Polish sci-fi and fantasy convention Pyrkon have confirmed Bruce Boxleitner and Claudia Christian as guests for next year.
Date: 14th-16th of July 2024
Location: Poznań, PL

(via Google Translate) The first guests of Pyrkon 2024!


We will reveal the secret to you and reveal the first guests who will appear at Pyrkon 2024:

Claudia Christian, American actress, known from the series Babylon 5 and Columbo , as well as many voice roles (animation Atlantis - the lost land , Blood of Zeus and games: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim , Fallout 76 and titles from the World of Warcraft ... and many other!).

Bruce Boxleitner, an American television actor and film producer who became best known for such television series as Babylon 5 and How the West Was Won. Surely you also associate it with the cult film production from 1982 - the sci-fi classic "Tron" (but also the new installment from 2010). Bruce is also a voice actor.


Altho the 2024 announcement is only in Polish, here you find some general info on the Pyrkon in English.

 

I'm really hyped for it, even tho I am not very into the art style.
