This is one of those things I kinda wanted but was never going to make myself. I’ll probably add it to my server this week.

Oh, better switch to bitlocker and onedrive then…

does it still work? even when I used it last you had to do some janky shit like download a specific version of kindle pc app and use that to download the book for the first time or the book would be downloaded with newer drm and stuck that way forever, and get the file from the old kindle pc app into dedrm

You can bolt whatever you want on those. My friend made his gaming rig like that and the sides are cardboard from his grandparent’s adult diaper boxes.

I’ve wanted to make frames like that but those aluminum extrusions are so expensive here. I’m tempted to just get stainless square tube and weld it. The welder would appreciate getting dusted off and receiving the attention.

Including sbcs there are 8 computers in there. There are 5 more laptops and another retired desktop joining. There are plans to get solar and batteries so I’m checking how much power I can actually draw.

edit: just found the weird netbook with usb3 ethernet that I used to run homeassistant bare metal back in the day. one more for the computer pile.

wasn’t there some dumb shit like every linux distro using fedora keys which were from microsoft?

I need this to be real

With the number of times I have done the live distro chroot thing you’d think I would have the procedure memorized

Picking hardware these days is like trying to find the best drop of water in a bag of dirt.

my body is a TempleOS

I mean sure but, like… 2005 called, they want their mail order ubuntu cd back.

What the hell linux distros are so far back in time that they have audio issues? I haven’t had to do anything in maybe the past decade and even when distro hopping it always worked?

Or is it super niche hardware? I haven’t heard of any real people using anything other than mobo built in audio since like 2007.

I prefer when the male 2 qol and stability/bugfix updates get backported to male 1 v2.0, but without changing the story or adding unneeded other features

he’s right you know

damn they can fit right under the door. that’s cray

even the suspicious aliexpress drives? damn

I don’t have a working knowledge of many languages commonly dubbed in but even when the original japanese goes past a certain threshold I can’t stand it. I understand enough japanese to follow along with anime that isn’t too complicated and recognize that it tends to be different from real conversation to varying degrees. Some games and anime I’ve gone to an audio track of a language way beyond my comprehension just to feel less uncomfortable.

Regional accents or dialects gross me out in dubs though. I die inside every time kansai ben or something gets replaced with a very fake us 'murican rednecky bit. I could probably tolerate it if it was using or based on english from outside of the states but most of the time they end up turning it into a trailer trash vibe for a character that is very much not that.

I can kinda get behind the feeling correct for the setting but usually its just too jarring and I can’t picture a world where anyone would speak like english dub anime girl outside of gooner streaming or something. As a different example I didn’t mind the voice acting mod of the outer wilds game. Much of the audio felt off to my ears that have been listening to mostly english all my life but the characters are all aliens (to us) and the ones that feel most off are of a different species to the player character and the audio would presumably come from the translator device. It also was nowhere near as jarring as the typical budget anime dub.

nope. Pirate and if its good buy in preference order of direct then gog then steam.

they don’t talk like how real people talk. according to a semi local voice actor, japanese studios want that weird acting for some reason but a lot of voice actors hate doing it and that’s why theres like 3 men and 5 women that do almost all of the english dubs
