I played the demo this morning and really enjoyed it. It seemed a little rough around the edges, I had some problems navigating the ship and finding rooms, but it seemed pretty good. Its on my wishlist now.

Man, I was soooo excited about the PS5, but then it turned into such a shit show to get one that I just put my money into my PC and I never even got around to picking one up when availability became more reasonable. I don't think I'd ever really want to get back into the console gaming space anymore.

I honestly assumed that she'd be one of the main instructors. Especially with Micheal saying something about Tilly being the Acadamy's longest serving instructor (or something like that) in the Disco epilogue.

I generally play single player games and have had little to no problems. Any issues I've had have required very little tinkering to fix and I've solved them all by simply searching online for the problem and finding out that its a common issue and someone has posted a step by step fix.

The biggest issue I've had is with baulders gate 3 multiplayer which I eventually fixed, but I can't remember how anymore. Single player worked fine right out of the gate.

I've also had better luck playing older games on Linux vs Windows. Heroic Launcher also works great for anything you've purchased on GOG, Epic,and Amazon too.

I had been thinking about it for a while. I had played with linux before on an old laptop, but not seriously, though I had been getting more frustrated with windows every time it updated it seemed. I then got the urged to play an old game of mine that i had picked up on a steam sale recently that i hadn't played in years. It took hours of tinkering and web sleuthing to get it to run, then i played 20 min had to run to town, so I shut down my PC and bam. Windows update. Game no longer worked again. The next weekend I installed Linux mint, then Fedora, then the weekend Bazzite the weekend after that. The game I wanted to play on windows worked right out of the box on Proton. I've had less problems overall with Linux than Windows too. Most of the problems I did have early on were also self inflicted. Pro-tip don't try to remove then re-install the lastest python manually in mint. It breaks everything apparently, luckily (unlike Windows) its very easy to re-install. It's been about 7 months now.

The first time I heard about Residential schools was about 2 years after I graduated high school. This was also one of the first times (definitely not the last time) I was truly ashamed of my country.

I think most of the problems with Canada Post is the commercialisation of it. 95% of my personal mail delivered to my community mailbox is flyers and scam inivitations to MLM's. I've stopped regularly checking it every day because its always all garbage that I imeadiatly throw out. I usually check it every other week now. Plus if I get a parcel its almost always just a slip that I have to take to shoppers drug mart (not the more easily accessible post office). Its literally more convenient to get packages delivered by anyone else, because they will actually bring them to my door instead of waiting an hour in line at Shoppers so that an underpaid Shoppers drug mart employee can get me my package that any other service would have put directly into my hands.

I'm a contractor that goes to tons of houses every week. The Maple MAGA crowd hasn't gone away, they're just quieter now with all this 51st state BS. I used to have to deflect a ton of MAGA propaganda when i went to customers houses, now people seem to just turn off FOX news when i walk through the living room, or test the waters with vague comments about Carney. I try to steer the conversation away from politics and towards literally anything else. Pro tip, people love talking about their pets.

Thanks for the recommendation. Once I found the "n" I mistyped as "m" in one of the file directories it actually went quite well. I looked at setting up sonarr & radarr, but its really just me and my partner using it right now, so I'll put that on the back burner until I get more storage.

Thanks I'll look into this tonight. I'm still trying to wrap my head around dockers and containers etc. I think I've a pretty good handle on it now, but it still hurts my brain after a while.

So, I already pay for Proton VPN, mostly for the E-Mail, but I do use the vpn currently on my main PC to torrent, which I then manually transfer to my server over the network, but I would like to eliminate the middleman and torrent directly to the server, while still being able to easily remote in. I run CasaOS on my Homelab and I was planning on installing qbittorrent in a container, probably through Portainer. I'm already running Soulseek on the server the same way (originally I was running slskd, but it was overly complicated to set up and once it was set up and working there were lots of upload errors and I didn't like the UI, so I changed to a Nicontine+ docker), but that's just open to the web.

Yeah, sounds about right. Server is on my home network and I've forwarded the applicable wireguard ports on my router so I can remote in. I just want to make sure that if I'm running a torrent client on my server or on my phone while I'm connected remotely then I won't be getting angry letters from my ISP.
