yeah the new plex app sucks, live tv only sometimes works on it and won't cast. I side loaded the most recent version of the old app (10.26) and set it to not auto update.

Do you know if there's a good place to find mods for these N64 re/decomps? Googling around hasn't produced many relavent results for me ( or maybe they don't exist yet? )

I've been using yay and cachy-update, which seem to handle basic package management well for me so far. Do you have a favorite?

That's excellent - I'll be using this to help bridge my gap over to FreeCAD

I've tried it briefly, I found a lot of friction with trying to adjust to its UI. Maybe it was the order I did things in but when attempting a parametric design - following the same steps as my F360 timeline - FreeCAD just threw errors.

I still need to give it another try and learn the quirks and layout a little better. I haven't needed to design things lately but when I do I'll spend some more time with it.

 

For me, at least. Finally moved my desktop off Windows 10 and on to CachyOS. Things just.. work. Finding applications to install via AUR is easy, gaming is great. The only thing I'm missing is Fusion360 but I didn't use it too much to begin with. Happy to be Microsoft-free. Several friends have switched off of Windows as well which is great to see. I've really been enjoying Arch (btw) I have CachyOS on my laptop and also in a VM which is nice to have the same desktop experience on all my devices. Looking forward to the road ahead!

I wonder why the numbers have plateaued for Texas and New Mexico

Notepad on windows, I think around the XP and earlier versions, had a similar bug. If you typed this app can break and saved it, the file would be corrupted. Something to do with the number and placement of characters.

For learning about economic & financial concepts and how they impact the world check out the NPR podcast Planet Money. It's free, episodes aren't too long, and they cover some really interesting stories that involve businesses, supply chains, government policy, etc. a fun episode is #862: Big Government Cheese

Willing to bet a lot of companies will be considering that now lol. Will it actually happen though? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

With power query, Excel can perform more database-like functions, I use it all the time! It comes with it's own quirks however

Woah, I have not! I will definitely be checking that out. Thank you!

Same here, for some reason my covid hobby was learning a new keyboard layout and while I now prefer using Dvorak, my attempts at remapping key bindings like cut/copy/paste on linux has has been unreliable at best, and then switching between Dvorak and QWERTY for games that don't support layout-agnostic controls usually doesn't even register (at least on the steam deck it doesn't seem to)

 

On occasion I find myself needing to send a file at least a few gigabytes in size to a friend across our slow ISPs but haven't found a satisfying solution. I usually end up creating a private torrent with the announce address of my own IP. Even though it's slow - it basically never reaches my max upload speed for some reason, it is at least resilient if there are ever any network glitches.

Does anyone else face this same challenge?

EDIT: Thank you for the awesome suggestions! I have some homework to do on these
