any non public domain sheets there are paywalled if you wanna download them. Youll need librescore

rutracker is semi private, registrations are always open and no invites needed

far as I’ve heard, Mint can be iffy fhen it comes to games, mostly because they use an outdated kernel. I can also recommend something like Endeavor if the gamer in question has any knack for tech, or Nobara, which is made specifically for gaming by GloriousEgg, maintainer of ProtonGE

pedancy talk aside this is like the most inconsistent rule in all of writing hahhah

even the oxford comma is less debated than punctuation in quotes

Punctuation goes inside of quotes, “like this.”

there is something very satisfying about running pacman -Syu at the end of the day and watching it update the repos, give you a neat list of packages to be upgraded, then see them downloading over all your threads with that little chomp chomp pacman animation, disappearing one by one, or a bunch at once, and then at the end it runs the hooks and you see that [1/23] fill up all the way to [23/23] in the span of a minute…

It’s like popping bubble wrap, but you have 8 hands and 8 bubble sheets and never try to pop the tame bubble twice

There is also the lesser known, but quintessential space game: Space Rangers (GOG). It takes a little figuring out, since it’s a Russian game from 2003 (and a successor of the 1999 game) and they kind of tend to be obtuse like that; but, its genuinely the coolest space sandbox I’ve played. It’s kind of a space Mount and Blade: you can fight aliems, you can trade, you can be a mercenary, or a pirate, and the game accomodates for all of that. At whim, it switches between the core X4-esque gameplay to an RTS, or to a text quest, some of which are basically an entire game of their own. The English translation is a little spotty, but it’s good enough.

Mandalore made a video about it some time ago.

It’s also got a ton of mods! Though not all of them have translations.

Op said thei got an old notebook, trying to run a VM on it would probably be a miserable experience. Depends on the exact model of course, but with low specs and potentially lower hardware support for VMs, its not likely to be a good solution.

This looks like a Jinja template, so definitely supposed so be populated by something else first. Yaml is basically just a prettier Json so it wouldn’t support something like that section on its own.

You are not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

Check Gentoomen Library and anarcho-copy, both have a huge curated list of books on everything, including networking.

My setup is Navidrome, Soulseek and MusicBrainz Picard, each hosted in a docker container.

Whatever music I can’t or don’t care to buy directly on Bandcamp i find on Soulseek. Then, I run the downloaded files through Picard which tags and renames them automatically for me. After which, I put them into the Navidrome directory, it picks them up and lets you stream it in a browser or any app that supports Subsonic servers. I use Feishin on my desktop and Symfonium on my phone for that.

Oh, I might be wrong on that part, sorry about that

If you’re on linux or bsd, look into ZFS. Insanely easy to set up and admin, fs-level volume management, compression and encryption, levels of RAID if you want them, and recently they even added phe option to expand your data pools with new drives. All of that completely userspace, without having to fiddle with expensive RAID cards or motherboard firmware.
