    Terminal > winget install mozilla.firefox > Done.

  • Is it FlyingSquid you are talking about? I was there for all of that too. I think they left for UK, and then the UK got worse, so I hope he and his family are safe and well, at least. :/

    EDIT: Sorry, I see now where you said they identified as female and I don't recall Squid saying that.

  • I tried it out one time because another user here, Tal, usually put it into their very well made comments, so I tried it out.

    Yeah, I've been paying for it for almost two years(?) and I never have these difficulties any more. Very happy customer. :)

  • This was beautiful to read, and I feel the same as you. Thank you so much for sharing such a heart warming story. :')

  • While true, you don't see anyone else at all even trying to be better than Steam, unfortunately. :/

  • FINAL FANTASY VII - now on GOG

  • Excellent, thanks again! I'm going to take a look at them when I feel like going through them.

    Right now, I'm in the middle of FF12 Zodiac and FF16. I'll eventually get to the older ones, just too many good games out right now!

    As for Skyrim mods, Inigo/Recorder/Lucien were my absolute favorites, and they were my companions throughout one of my playthroughs. :)

  • I had no idea that they did voice acting mods! Thanks for sharing this!

    I played FF7 OG right before the remake came out so I could really see the differences, and obviously used mods to make it more enjoyable for me. This would've been a must have at that point, but I am VERY interested in the FF9 voice mod. Is there one for FF8, and do they sound pretty good? :)

  • What's wrong with my dishes?

  • Must've installed your mods incorrectly. :(

  • Firefox is ending support for Windows 7, 8 and 8.1, and users are urged to switch to Linux

    Jump

  • You'll find a lot of differing opinions, so I will give you mine.

    I'm currently running openSUSE Tumbleweed for over a year now, and I can say I am somewhat happier than on Windows. There were (and on my install still are) issues that I have to sort out sometimes. These issues can vary, but the most important thing to me (and I assume you) is gaming.

    Gaming was excellent at the start of my journey. Games ran just as well, if not better, on my Linux machine than on Windows. I was amazed, truly! Then, I finally upgraded my 10xx series NVIDIA GPU to a 50xx series GPU, and it was quite a bad experience.

    Drivers for NVIDIA GPUs on Linux can be iffy and problematic at times. I'd be fully prepared to read up on or risk asking the community (I've never had a good experience talking with the Linux crowd, personally) about any suggestions. The problem with those suggestions is you will get plenty of "Works great on my distro!" (Distro here means the Linux "flavor" you choose to go with i.e. openSUSE for me, Mint for others, and Bazzite for others).

    Recently, I did an upgrade for my distro, and it made my RustDesk stop booting on computer start, and I can't use GE-Proton versions that I downloaded through ProtonUp-Qt and that is pretty problematic for someone like me who is trying to get as much oomph as possible from their machines for gaming. Steam's Proton works just fine though, so sometimes you might need to fiddle with the Steam Compatibility settings and try different Proton versions.

    I won't try to drown you in any longer of a text wall, but here is what I will end off on.

    Linux feels like home, while Windows feels like someone else's home. As for a distro recommendation for someone wanting to dip their toes into Linux and have a much better time than I did, I'd recommend either SteamOS (Valve's distro they use on the Steam Deck, which is what got me interested in Linux gaming capabilities in the first place!) or Bazzite (a community distro I believe is based on SteamOS?) for gaming, and Fedora for a more general purpose computer usage. Just make sure you really gear yourself up for what may turn out to be an adventure you weren't expecting to go down!

  • The image you posted is clearly AI generated, Hawk. I'll take a look at the sources at least. Thanks.

    EDIT: The links you provided also show some kind of inconsistency with whatever they are trying to achieve with these photos, whether it be faces in the background looking like something a GenAI would make, or if they are using an upscaler, it is terrible. While the image you posted may not be GenAI, there is still something fishy about the images in general.

  • Innioasis Y1.

    You can install Rockbox on it to make it "better" (subjective I guess) or keep it stock and still use it.

    One of the reasons I installed Rockbox on mine are for the themes. I can share a photo to those interested to see what it looks like. Links to everything below!

    Innioasis Y1 (they've increased the price since I got mine, was $50 a few months ago)

    Innioasis Y1 Updater (used to install the Rockbox firmware, or update the normal firmware. NOTE: You can use both the original firmware AND the Rockbox firmware for a "best of both worlds" scenario!)

    Innioasis Y1 Rockbox Themes (I believe this is the git that I got all my themes from, but if it isn't I can provide the actual one later when I am home!)

    Battery has been good for me, personally, with Rockbox and a sick ass theme (the Snowoasis Y1 DARK theme). I've got ~5000 songs on it, and it's only taken up ~45GB of space!

    They REALLY do not like it when people point out the true gambit they deploy.

  • Senator Mark Kelly says he will 'seriously consider' running for president

  • I'm assuming they're trying to say that because she pauses and actually thinks about what she is trying to say (much like Obama did) before she says it, that somehow that makes her unfit to be president, because reasons.
