I really enjoyed Voyager and still watch episodes regularly. For me it was the idea of being so far from the “known universe” and what that would be like.
The one time I tried shaving my head, I slipped and shaved off a small chunk of eyebrow. Luckily, the haircut was so uneven that few people even noticed the eyebrow :P
It was around 2001 and I started by dual booting Windows with Red Hat, don’t remember which version. Eventually I dropped Windows and dropped the dual boot and switched from Red Hat to Ubuntu.
I didn’t try MCC or multiplayer, since I was just performance testing on the computer (will eventually be the wife’s machine after we move next month), but even running Academy with the bots was running great. I was able to sign into my Microsoft account no problem though, so I want to try multiplayer next.
Sorry for the my previous post, I hit ‘publish’ instead of exiting preview, lol.
What phone are you using?
Samsung Galaxy A11, Android 12/One Ui Core 4.1. I bought it in November 2020, amid a problem with not accessing Whatsapp and communicating with my schoolmates.
Are you happy with it? What are its best and worst qualities?
Yeah. I don’t know how to say exactly about the best and worst things about it, I’ll just say that at least it’s satisfying me.
Which phones have you had previously? Which were the best and worst of the lot?
Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime and Motorola G6 Play. About the first one, it had terrible storage: 16GB, which was small even back then and it was one of the reasons I switched phones. About the second one, it lasted a few years, but as I used it a lot, it ended up with the battery becoming addicted and it stopped working during the pandemic. I still kept it, waiting for some repair, but then I had to give it to another relative.
How often do you upgrade to a new phone?
I use it until it is very old or with some defect. Yes, I know it’s kind of weird to do that, but the wages here don’t help much in the exchange for a decent phone.
What other Android ecosystem devices do you have? Watches, headphones/earbuds, etc.
None.
Do you also use any Apple products, or are you Android all the way? (And/or Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, etc.)
I have a tablet (Galaxy Tab A, 2019 version. Android 11), two cell phones that belonged to my parents (Galaxy J7 Prime and Galaxy A10, the latter being with the screen broken) and a notebook with Windows 10 that I also bought in 2020 (Samsung Essentials E20). Yes, I’m technically kind of a Samsung fan.
Hi, thanks for your comment! I just visited your blog and noticed that it loads fairly quickly: I assume you must have some sort of CDN set up. Could you point me to how you went about setting up the CDN for your domain/website? Thanks!
No CDN. The secret is way simpler: It’s a static site. Just a bunch of files served directly by Nginx. I use Pelican to generate the site from Markdown files.
I’ve been trying to get docker swarm running across my 4 rpi’s, but traefik hasn’t been able to discover services (can find them on the same node if the network is a bridge, can’t find anything with overlay network) which has been frustrating to try to figure out the problem. That said, here is what I plan to host on the swarm:
traefik
grocy
nextcloud
vaultwarden
plex
nginx (portfolio website that I currently just have on GitHub pages)
lemmy instance (for some of you beautiful bastards)
readarr, sonarr, readarr, lidarr, prowlarr, sabnzb, and qbittorrent
I run k3s on a similar setup, 4x rpi4 and 2x Intel Atom mini PCs. Obviously different software with different goals, but was remarkably simple despite the heterogenous platform.
I check PCGW more prominently these days because even if the original game works, you can expect there to be some quirks that exist on Windows as well that Proton accurately replicates.
