  • So, there are a couple of things that have happened recently. I have an old laptop that I’ve messed around with different distros of Linux on. I installed Arch on it and am trying to do some different things. It’s not a good laptop, so the VM set up I’m really interested in won’t happen until I get a few more drives for my main PC and set up a dual boot abd some other things. I am really interested in this set up because it just sounds neat.

    Are there some things I should try to do to help me get better at working with this OS? I’m currently seeking up a server with a reverse proxy using nginx and its… Going. The server works I think, but the proxy doesnt yet.


  • With some of the news going around about the new windows versions and what-not, this sounds really interesting. I have a couple questions if you could answer them, that would be awesome!

    How does a new release of Windows affect the compatibility of this set up? I know programs with for a while on older releases, but after a time, that version will be phased out. That might be more about the VM than your setup, but I don’t have a lot of experience with those either lol.

    Does this introduce some system lag for input in any way? If I ever do get the confidence to abandon my system to go to Linux, it would suck if this really cool sounding method added response time to inputs.


  • To be fair, I fully love that era of graphics. All the high resolution, hyper-realistic stuff is neat, but it seems like that is a facade added to a wooden shack with a leaking roof half the time. I would much rather something look a bit worse, but have so much more to offer in other areas.

    I knew about the demake, but haven’t tried it myself. I was hoping that it would have more done by now since I heart about it a while back. I might still give it a go though.

    Side note: I am so sad the the remakes of PS1 games don’t have the option to play with the original graphics. Halo remaster had the option and it was great. Spyro remaster changed things about the games and then made the game feel almost plasticy.



  • I would honestly want to try poutine, but not being near canada makes getting good stuff… well, impossible. If anyone has a recipe for authentic poutine, I would love to give it a try. Looking recipes up online is a hit or miss scenario since I have no real way of knowing if something is real or a not-very-good take on something.





  • I’ve been seeing things about matrix more and more and it’s seeming like something interesting. I checked out their website and, like a lot of this stuff, it’s a bit unclear for me.

    So you do as you do here and set up an account on an instance and then port everything through it? Does smashing all the different chats into one list have a way to differentiate them from one another? I’m just looking for more about it to help me understand it.
