It's remarkable how well computer programs from 20 years ago still work today

@npub1l53…3xx3 Yeah did both of those too, no dice. I didn't see any leakage or bulging anywhere but maybe I don't have the eye for it

I do not understand how the disposable razor industrial complex continues to be viable. Buy an electric razor and be done with it

There are so many creatively stimulating or otherwise fulfilling activities to do on the computer, so why does my brain always default to "click the same websites you already checked within the past hour"

@npub1nla…w6ry Yeah I guess this post was meant more on the product level ie Analogue Pocket for handhelds. Can see how the wording is confusing.

If you insist on using hqx upscale filters when playing 2D retro games, you are my enemy. We are enemies. I challenge you.

@npub15c7…pv76 Depends what you want out of it. There's a few things that I like to put on every Linux install:
GNOME tweaks for further customization
Guake or yakuake for dropdown console
neofetch for pretty ascii art/helpful info in console
PlayOnLinux or bottles for easy installing of Windows games/programs
Warpinator and Syncthing for wireless file sharing
Would be curious what other people have to say. There's all kinds of open source software for specific use cases
