Hatoful I'd say is potato-esq but I haven't played it in a long time so idk how it runs on Linux. I think VisNovels would all be pretty easy to run. I get the font issues. I think often it's some weird resolution issue, maybe with the videos or animations or something. I know it's not just me, as all the titles I see (like No More Heroes) are just plagued with people claiming they crash. Soul Hackers 2, I got working. Yaiba crashed like crazy. Neo Atlas was a crash-a-thon. Some other ones that I had hanging around crashed. I saw consistently it was Japanese games crashing out. I figured there had to be some issue with support, so I gave up. I like older games anyways.

p.s. - Nvidia, partners old gaming laptop. Three series, if that's how you note it =P! Either way, I don't like laptops, but I hate waste more. Would rather have Ryzen, and a desktop.

  • Use sunscreen if you need it, skin-cancer isn't sexy
  • Protect those eyeballs, seriously
  • ORT: Nothing sexier than staying hydrated
  • You don't need to stay outside, unless you need to stay outside, in which case see above
  • Protect your hair, if you have it - or your head, if you don't. Certain materials breathe, and others trap heat.
  • Pay attention to your body. I once bombed out from heat during an activity, and didn't realize until I was already sick. You don't need exuberance in heat, you can just chill.

I am not fashionable anymore, so I really don't have much else to say. I used to be. I have found holding subtle confidence, you could wear just about anything and still look fine. The power is inside you, and the accessories are just an extension of that eye.

Just a heads up, if you play a lot of Japanese games. I have had incredible trouble playing pretty much any Japanese game that isn't potato-esq since switching to Linux. I figured I'd get that out there. I gave up on playing them, which stinks because there are some very interesting games out there to play. If I can emulate, I do. But anything from Steam would just crash, within 10-20 minutes of playing them.

Looks beautiful! I understand, I was once talking with a guy who owned a sea-front store. He said he made a killing off of tourist coming for the ocean then getting smacked by the mist. I kid you not!

Those little bits of white are killing me! So cute!

Anything here? Not sure, don't have an Android anymore. 10/10 would GraphineOS if I was in the market for a new phone however.

Feels comfy, abouts how long did you end up sitting there? When I get views like these, I can't seem to move for at least thirty minutes. But sometimes an hour or so. Before I start the trek back.

I don't have any suggestions for titles, but I am a geek for a certain type of pet. I found a couple of books about them, and basically it was just by typing in [animal] + [fiction book] into Amazon. This was years back, and idk if it'll help but it's fun to read some little adventure books.

Lichens are sensitive to pollution, so cannot grow in places with bad air quality. As far as I know. Perhaps someone else can elaborate?

If you see these guys, the air quality is good!

There are certain foods I am helpless against.
