Maybe try Phantasy Star Portable 2

Wow that’s amazing, thank you. It was the voa nui game I was thinking of. Is there something like this for the other Lego web games?

I played this open world Lego game where you had to deliver pizzas on a skateboard or something, but I was too young and couldn’t figure out how to complete the game, or it kept bugging. I can’t remember what it was called.

Edit: ah of course it was Lego island 2, the image was familiar

I also played a sort of Bionicle mmo in the browser that i thought was cool. I wonder if any of the old flash games are archived somewhere? There were so many.

See if an office equipment seller is doing office clearances and you can get some office chairs for less than $100 most likely (I got one for £50)

You are right, many oddly specific gaming things like this are not that well supported, but the strength of Linux and open source is that everyone has the power to change it. The software that people have already developed to interface with proprietary hardware is great, I have a Corsair mouse and thought I would never have support for macros on it on Linux, but someone has already developed software that does a way better job than corsairs official software. It can do all of the same operations and doesn’t hang or crash regularly. I’m sure a few of your issues have already been solved by someone. The brilliant thing is, Linux ultimately allows much more control over the software and hardware it is interfaced to. So something like the transducers you mention would probably be easier to do than it is on windows, but someone has to actually do it. Maybe the sim-racing community is just waiting for you to come along? ;)

Played discovery a bit a long time ago, was great fun. Glad to see they’re still working on it

It’s on steam I think

In a capitalist system, billions are made by exploiting people. Therefore bad stuff done is directly proportional to wealth accumulated.

My belief on this is that it is related to the scale of effect we have on the environment we’re in. A beaver can be considered a keystone species in it’s habitat because it can build a dam and have an outsize effect on other species in it’s habitat by changing water movement. Humans are extreme keystone species. Our actions alter ecosystems on a global scale. No other species has such an impact. Therefore I don’t think it is fair that we have such an impact on all of the other species on the planet. A beavers dam only affects the forest it is in.

The internet is a bunch of networked computers, when it came about it was designed to not be private. It was built to connect lots of different small networks together. You can make yourself fully private by disconnecting yourself from the internat and only using your lan, but then you aren’t on the internet anymore. You can hide in plain sight using encryption now though

I’ve had a lot of success with an old second hand pair of reeboks. They are heavy and feel well made. I got them for £20 and show no signs of wear after medium use for about 9 months. My partners new reeboks got a whole in the sole after about 1 year. Second hand walking boots/trail shoes might also be a good idea. I think new shoes on the whole are just not made well, like most modern things, it seems to be about producing cheaply as possible so you have to keep buying new ones.

Based. What did you think about Dune? I read books 1 and 2, and then started reading Orientalism by Edward Said, and I’ve found that Dune is smacking of orientalism and sexism. It makes it hard to go back and read the 3rd book.

Imperialism, the highest stage of Capitalism by VI Lenin

I met the guy who made bcachefs in Philadelphia and watched a play with him. we then walked through the city at night for 3 hours.

True :)

if you like the look of windows that is…

GNU/Linux technologies were founded in the west, but are contributed to by people all over the world. I also feel like the ideology and philosophy behind them are in stark contrast to the “western” ideologies of capitalism and imperialism.

Is that a good thing necessarily?
