Has anyone tried the stadia controller via Bluetooth on PC?

I use a dual shock 4 via Bluetooth on my PC (Windows) and I’m tired about the workarounds required to have it working all the time. Sometimes it needs steam open, sometimes instead having steam open will confuse the game, and so on. And by default the light is off when connected so I never know if it’s o, off, low battery. I...

Opinions on which microblogging federated platform is currently the most stable yet developed one ?

Can someone who has a gog version of a game play with someone who has a steam version of the game in online games? There are lots of online games and online co-op games out there that are on steam and gog and I wonder if they can join each other’s lobbies and play each other and etc?

How do I get the device number for TWRP on my Samsung Galaxy J3 2018 model number SM-J337W and root it?

I have a Samsung Galaxy J3 2018 (model number SM-J337W) on which I want to install my own custom AOSP ROM (because I don’t want Google or Samsung to spy on me, I’m stuck with my current phone, and my phone is not supported by LineageOS, GrapheneOS, or CalyxOS). I have managed to install ADB for Linux and unlock the...

Firefox with arkenfox.js: Are these extensions still useful?

After a long while, I checked back on the arkenfox.js github page, and they no longer mention two extensions I still use: (1) CanvasBlocker (because if Resist Fingerprinting is enabled in about:config, the per page zoom levels get changed and that drives me crazy), and (2) Smart Referer (because, well, it was recommended). I...

Do people who are in late stage dementia still aware of the concept of death?

Seeing famous actors e.g. Robin Williams, and Bruce Willis suffering from dementia made me wonder in later stages do the people still aware of death? We all know death because we know the process we learn from or it’s just that we instinctively aware of it?

Proton VPN on Linux looks very different from Windows. How do you select one of their P2P options for faster torrenting?

Pretty much what the title says. I noticed that ProtonVPN Linux has an EXTREMELY limited interface compared to their program on Windows. I also do not appear to have the option to bind qBittorrent to ProtonVPN the same way that I did with MullvadVPN. Has anybody experienced ProtonVPN on Linux and successfully used it for...

YSK: To prevent mashed potatoes from being gummy, boil the potatoes whole.
