I want covert a sizable chunk of USD to EUR but I haven’t found a way to do it without a physical bank.

Only option I’ve found so far is buying EURC (crypto, I know, I know but at least it’s pegged to EUR).

Have you tried using Bottles? Has a default Bottle for “games”. Run the .exe file in the Bottle and it should work.

I can’t say how using 2 ZBT-1’s at the same time will work out but I can say they work great for Thread/Matter.

There shouldn’t be an issue getting both up running as long as you know which ZBT-1 is assigned to which port.

When the fuck did I write this?

But seriously, we’re boned. Doing everything I can to give my family a good life and have cushion for the future. You’re 100% correct though, almost don’t care if society collapses at this point.

Oh, I’m not shitting on Valve or anything. Just explaining how they could be called a casino.

Loot boxes are effectively gambling as there is no guarantee on what you’ll get. People in general can get addicted to the rush of getting that rare item the first time (which is usually what happens with a first open to get you hooked) and then either buy more loot boxes or the keys to open them.

But i do think about where the nearest xitter (shitter) is.

No, we’re a minority. Not third class. Hell, Android itself runs the Linux kernel. Should be a few slaps of paint to get it working. (I know it’s much more complicated than that.)

🤣 working towards that goal tho!

Don’t disagree. Small wallet for front pocket is my go to. Just was saying “it makes sense”.

I’m crazy forgetful. I’d 100% break it in my back pocket lol

I agree. I was just stating “it makes sense”. Small wallet for the front pocket. Can’t always wear cargo lol

Wallet makes sense in the back pocket. It’s been kind of the default for generations so much it’s a comedic point in TV Shows and movies at times. They’re generally malleable and an easy place to grab, for better or worse.

Phone on the other hand, I don’t get either. They’re rigid and can break quite easily if sat on. 🤷‍♂️

His cult is so used to seeing fake images that they have a hard time telling reality from fiction. They have to constantly photoshop him into looking like a strong man that they’ve forgotten what a unfit, blob of a man he really looks like.

Because the Steam Deck is just computer hardware. I can already install whatever OS I want to and Steam won’t know that it’s a Steam Deck anymore.

Saying the Steam Deck is digital only is like saying a tower computer is digital only. That’s purely false. If you can put it on a tower computer, you can put it on the Steam Deck.

All the Steam Deck, like many modern tower computers, needs for physical copies is a USB media reader.

Yes. Yes I have. It’s why I state 48kHz or higher due to the halving effect. 44.1kHz will only get you to 22kHz and 18Hz. Not a whole different than what ours can hear. 44.1kHz was the standard for CDs due to size limitations but we’re well beyond that now.

A pure analog recording can be superior to digital recordings. But those are so rare these days, we don’t have a good comparison.

There’s things like “bass bleed” and cross talk that made analog so interesting to listen to.

As long as the original recording is 48kHz or higher, digital recordings are awesome. We might not be able to hear beyond the 20Hz - 20kHz, you can most certainly feel it. Especially in the lower end.

Oh, I drive Linux only. I have Windows 10 running Atlas playbook on standby but hasn’t been booted in months.

I think the entry barrier for installation/setup is what will be what stops Linux fully taking over. If OEMs start loading a very user friendly Linux on their “normal” desktops/laptops (Best Buy, Amazon, etc.), then I can see Linux being the majority.

With all that said, I want Linux to be the majority and running on everyone’s computer. I’m just being a realist at this point in time.

Less that they don’t want other companies using it and more so they don’t want other other companies translating it into something they can use.

Basically, translating an instruction manual from German to Spanish.

No one is breaking any copyright laws or IP to do this. It’s the same how Steam created Proton to run Windows games on Linux. It’s translating code from one language to another that’s readable.

If Linux becomes the dominant gaming platform for gaming (not gonna happen, wish it would tho), there is no reason for a “Proton for Windows” could/should emerge.
