So… Does anyone know how likely this is too get/run beat saber? That’s most of what my VR having friends seem to really use VR for.

If it means I can stay with her I am willing to try anything, especially since our bond is insanely tight…

Sounds like you feel vulnerable right now - which I think it just part of any worthwhile relationship.

When I have felt similarly vulnerable, I found it centering to internalize my commitment to our bond.

My spouse is the person that I would flex however they need, to be there for and have fun with them.

When they have had needs I’m still trying to understand, I center my mind on this core belief: I plan to be there for them.

It sounds to me like you found someone worth that, and are making peace with how vulnerable that leaves you.

I don’t know what to add except I’ve been there, and it has been worth it.

Fast metal riffs intensify.

This is actually why I gave up using Wayland.

This might have gotten me to buy a PS5 - a decade ago.

There’s still time!

Yes. There’s a follow up where Sulu learns what Captain Pike was trying to teach him.

Some situations call for a different approach: three copies of Blue Eyes White Dragon.

says Andrew Castillo, a stock trader from Los Angeles. “It has no political affiliations at all to me.”

He’s getting a head start distancing himself…

In contrast, my car stands for high mileage, oil changes, and having a trusted local mechanic.

Anyone can tell just by a quick look at it.

I have absolutely no idea why Ubuntu is seemingly hated by everyone on lemmy.

It’s Snaps.

I mentioned somewhere else that my reason for using Linux is that, when I have a problem, no one designed that problem to extract money from me.

Snaps feel designed to extract money.

The funny part is, I’ve bought Ubuntu CDs just to support Canonical. I like giving them money.

But Snaps feel like more of the kind of bullshit that I left Windows over, to me.

Snaps redirect some of my software requests from fully free community packages into a partially paid app store. They’re not (yet) ripping me off, they just appear to be getting ready to rip me off.

Seems to work fine, Installation was easy.

Yes. Ubuntu is a fine place to start. It was the first Linux distro that really worked for me.

Eventually, down the line, Snap may cause you some headaches, so we generally recommend Mint, which is effectively Ubuntu without Snap.

The anger is just that Canonical keeps claiming to be an ally while appearing to prepare to rip people off by selling other people’s work that they gave away for free, for a fee.

For context, many companies that have joined FOSS community have gone in this direction. People can be trustworthy. Corporations cannot, because they get sold or their CEO changes.

I feel like most of you don’t know anything about it (volleyball).

That is true, but I didn’t mean to make it so obvious.

I frequently tripped on my robe and my beard. I believe I was not an asset to my team.

“Mr. Sulu, do you recall our discussion?”

“Yes. Sir.”

“And the key point was?”

“Not every problem should be sovled by the Blue Eyes White Dragon.”

“And did you consider that, today?”

“I will next time, sir.”

Is there a good progression for my “next distro after Ubuntu?”.

Yes. Linux Mint has got your back.

Being threatened by what children say or write looks small, weak and pathetic.

You got this! Good luck!

There’s a zen peace that comes after realizing the customer is out of their mind and will change their mind tomorrow, anyway.

since everyone on lemmy is a programmer

Just because I’m on Lemmy, does not make me a programmer.

I mean, I am a programmer.

But not because I’m on Lemmy. (I think.)

what do you guys actually do?

I say “please” in various ways that computers understand.

Is it copying and pasting tons of code?

Well… Yes, but with a lot more swearing at the computer.

But I’m very good at it, so I copy and paste very small amounts of code very cleverly.

Is it fixing small bugs

I fix small bugs, huge bugs, critical bugs, and intermittent sneaky bugs. I get paid either way.

Ouch. I’m in this picture, and I don’t like it.

That captures the feeling perfectly. Haha.

It felt risky upgrading my work PC to Linux, but I’m so thankful not to be dealing with this bullshit.

We did everything inside of WSL already, anyway.

I try to post happy stuff here

Thank you. I appreciate it.

Fate’s solution to this is so good. It’s so nice not to leave to chance the important binding glue of the party, while still making it part of gameplay.

I use Fate’s character/ party rules as house rules for every game system I GM.
