THIS a thousand times. World of Warcraft became dead to me when it implemented voice chat in the game's client. I can't hear well enough for voice chat and while I can speak just fine, I refuse to buy peripherals so that the hearies can feel superior with their lack of environmental awareness.

To answer the direct question, BTRFS works fine for gaming. Garuda uses BTRFS by default and I've been daily driving it for a few years now. My gaming machine hasn't had an unrecoverable failure that wasn't my fault (not checking consple output for errors when updating and then rebooting). Games on an ext4 file system work fine - that's what I do for games I don't play often. The main NVME is for games that are played regularly and everything else goes to the storage SSDs.

Correct me if I'm wrong, it seems like you want an immutable distro more than BTRFS for what you want to do.

In my experience, yeah its normal. Have you seen the top rated comments with all of the emoji reactions? Those are rewarded with Steam points that can be used in the points shop. Jesters are hella easy to farm.

I admit that I am a bit biased. During the 8-10 years I tanked my startup by going all-in on Microsoft Store apps because I absolutely loved my Windows Phones and was convinced that they were the future, especially when Continuum was announced (and it actually worked!).

The disenchantment started when Microsoft forced developers to rewrite their apps for Windows 10 after already having forced the mobile devs to do it from 7 to 8. The hatred ramped up when they killed support for the Lumia 950XL 6 months after launch. I freaking loved that phone.

It pissed me off so much that I went to Apple lmao talk about cutting off my nose to spite my face.

You forgot Vista before 7. The list didn't "break down" because Vista was the steaming pile of shit in between.

8 sucked, 8.1 was good at least in my opinion. 10 was when I fucked off to Linux land permanently after using it on and off for 15 years and have never been happier.

I'm a fan of hellpotting them.

Over-explaining is my biggest issue. I'm entirely self taught and the trash quality of certain softwares with non-descriptive variable and function names sort of steered me towards clearly naming things (sometimes verbosely). That has the unfortunate side effect of repetition when documenting and it comes across as sarcastic or condescending when proofreading.

Its far easier to have a machine do it than to second-guess every sentence.

You mentioned a llamafile, is that offline? I'm using GPT-4 at the moment because my partner has a subscription. If so, I maaaay have to check it out ^^

I use it to generate code documentation because I'm incapable of documenting things without sounding like a condescending ass. Paste in a function, tell it to produce docstrings and doctests, then edit the hell out of it to sound more human and use actual data in the tests.

Its also great for readmes. I have a template that I follow for that and only work on one section at a time.

What does everyone think of it? My favourite tracks (going down the list) are:

Track list, opinion

  • TTPD
  • Guilty as Sin?
  • The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived
  • Clara Bow
  • Cassandra
  • The Bolter

Disclaimer: I am Deaf and can't understand the lyrics without reading/memorising them. I also lack the ability to hear most of the high-end without cranking my hearing aids up to a painful level.

Musically, its a bit mid compared to the other albums, especially Midnights (my favourite), likely due to the hearing issue. I do think it will grow on me over time the way that 1989 did. I added The Bolter while typing this, for example xD

Lyrically, I love all of the ones I've cared enough to look up. 💖

Remember, this is an opinion! 🙈

My rule is that she gets my money for one edition, and the others are "procured" elsewhere. The white vinyl is going to look great in a frame and I have the Target edition of Lover coming from the US at the same time for the same reason lol
