What is Tom Bombadil?
He is not a hobbit, neither a man, but what is he? Is he a dwarf? A wizard? A god? Something else entirely?
Could use a "tl;dr guide" of sorts on how to use Android.
In other words… a “Use this to do that” guide. Or more specifically, how to customize it (Get rid of the wallpaper, use lower resolutions, set up apps to run on boot, permanently change scaling_min_freq, etc without the usage of third party apps) and where to find a decent/optimized version of it (Something like LineageOS?...
[RESOLVED] Strange Proton Crash with Starfield after 135 hours of playing (AMD/Mesa)
EDIT: This has been fixed, it all mostly chalked up to possibly a driver / kernel bug. Why things managed to work so well for so long, who can say? Anyway all you need to do is upgrade your Linux kernel to 6.5.x, and your Mesa driver to the latest Mesa git....
Should I go with a prebuilt or custom built NAS to get into self hosting?
Hey all, I’ve been doing a bunch of research on selfhosting the last few weeks as I’d love to lean on more open source projects for my daily productivity & entertainment.

Annotations for *Star Trek: Lower Decks* 4x04: “Something Borrowed, Something Green” (SPOILERS)

I know gator-aid and its like advertise that they have lots of them. And I know sometimes I feel bad if I sweat a lot and just drink water. But are they just advertising… salt? Are there different kinds of electrolytes, and if so are they interchangable?

Why doesn't Starfleet just employ more Borg cubes when fighting Borg?
Seriously, with the devastating defeat to the Borg and the Borg uni-matrix, you would have thought that Voyager would have took home some extras cubes, or at least Spheres or Probes as souvenirs. The Borg wouldn’t of noticed that those ships weren’t Borg, and Starfleet would have gotten some killer Victory Royales against...
Case Recommendations
I’m having a hard time figuring out what case I want to get. Part of me thinks hot swap bays would be nice (I’ve had a drive failure and figuring out which one would have been 10x easier with hot swap). Of course in the future I’ll have labels with S/N on the drives so it’s easier to find the drive....
