If you buy an electric mower, you never have to change the oil again. Or the spark plug. Or buy gas. Or clean the carburetor.

Kde connect is great, iv always thought about using it but never got round to it as im current using a wm instead of a desktop environment. If i was to switch to a desktop environment kde would be my first choice as it has so many features.

I have kdeconnect on my i3wm.

Bitwarden / Vaultwarden, no other password manager I’ve tried before has really worked for me.

Bitwarden or KeePassXC is my favorite too :)

Hello fellow bitwarden user! I also self-host my server with vaultwarden

Mine will probably be Bottles.

The team behind that application did a fantastic job. Wine was due for something much more user friendly like this. And integration with Proton, allowing 3D acceleration is the cherry on top.

Great choice, i prefer bottles over wine for that reason

Oth , (edited ) to nostupidquestions in Can a COVID test show your level of infectiousness?

The effect you are describing is “viral load”; the degree to which a virus is present in the body. This is an indicator of how infectious you are. It is especially important for people with HIV to see if they are “safe” or need their medication adjusted.

However, an at-home test will not be a good indicator of this. These have too many variables such as the site that was swabbed, time delays from the various biological functions, how well you used the kit and even variability in the kit itself.

To properly test for viral load, a blood test should be used. I worked with a company that tested for viral load via expelled breath, and while this was a good indicator of infectiousness y/n, and was faster than a PCR, it was not more accurate.

PCSX2. It’s an open-source PS2 emulator, and a dang good one at that. It has a high degree of compatibility and functionality. I absolutely adore it since so many of my favorite games happen to be PS2 games, and after playing some of my favorite games on this emulator, I realized just how much the PS2’s native resolution doesn’t do the graphics of the PS2’s best games justice.

It is also free and available for Windows, Linux, and macOS!

Shape4985 OP ,

Love PCSX2. I play a lot of old games as they have a charm to them and no micro transactions

Corno ,

Same! Have you played the Ratchet and Clank original trilogy? The old games have this special charm to them that I don’t really see in the newer games of the series.

If you happen to have easy access to the ROM, how’s “Star Wars: Racer Revenge” run?

It’s the less popular but more fleshed out spiritual successor to the N64 pod racing game - the PS2’s take nailed the physics - the two engines and racer pod are (or at least feel like) three separate entities, and playing in first person view with the engines controlled separately by the left and right joysticks feels fucking magical.

Tried to run it on PCSX2 years ago, but it was one of the few games that meshed so poorly with the emulator that it wasn’t playable. I’m guessing the emulator has seen some improvements since then - could definitely use a nice shot of nostalgia.

Corno ,

I haven’t played that game yet! But there’s an excellent wiki which allows you to check each game’s compatibility. It looks as though the game has some issues with visual glitches when rendering in hardware mode. In software mode, it is rendered more accurately but the resolution cannot go beyond PS2 native.

The system specs tho LMFAO 🤣🤣🤣

System Specifications:

  • Makes the most irritating beeping noise you’ve ever heard in your goddamn life
  • Fucks up everything else you hook it up to
  • ’Scans for receivers’, whatever the fuck that means
  • Flashes random fucking words and numbers on the display screen

I always click on ads for companies I don’t like. The cost to them is trivial, but whatever. It’s a petty vengeance.

When sauteeing onions and mushrooms, when they're almost done, pour a little red wine into the pan and boil it out. Makes them amazing.

A splash of beer works similarly too depending on what you’re putting those onions on.

Some good recommendations. Im using voyager now to type this :P syncthing is so versatile. I have my devices sync my rom save files so i can pick up and play retro games and carry on from the same place across devices.

kindenough , to asklemmy in What is the oldest (optional) element of your daily routine?

Making coffee and tea for my wife when she wakes up, make the lunchbox for my student son, sometimes also for my wife if she needs to get to the office. Nobody eats breakfast so after that I clean up and fill the dishwasher from last nights dinner, that I cook daily. Inbetween I game, relax, make music, pet the cat.

It is nice being early retired and doing the housekeeping.
