A nice Slice of Life gane I recently enjoyed is Midnight Ramen.
Another I found excellent that might touch closer to Stardew is Potion Permit

Ugh, webapps are obnoxious as hell to me. Give me a thick client any day. Biggest irritation for most for me is the loss of keyboard control

At a minimum for sure. 666 is an incredibly high ask.

I loved the options it came with. But that price tag was the real gimmick. So fucking overpriced.

It’s too bad they backed him in the first place. Idiots. Good luck getting anywhere with that lawsuit.

Ok, that was always allowed. Love her roles and all, but never understood people making a fuss over an actor retiring. I’m happy for them, retiring is great. I hope I get to someday but probably won’t.

- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 4 weeks ago:
Right on, I’ll have to check out proxmox, i don’t have any experience with it yet. That’d be dope to switch at least one computer over to something linix based.

Yeah I know OneDrive is a bad option anymore. I’m definitely looking for options there but nothing is coming close so far. Hardest part is space but each requirement presents an issue.
Thanks for telling me about openoffice, looking at things i think i meamt Only Office. Any opinions there? I’m not keen on the AI push but it also seems optional. Thanks for the positive endorsement for Libre being compatible in an office setting. Looks like they have a good dark mode too which I’m very happy about. I love having a black background to write against and has stopped me from adopting things in the past. I can’t do white backed apps anymore. They hurt lol
The hosting is on my old desktop which is running server 2016. I’d like to replace the OS on it too. I don’t keep the box online so I’m not keen on using it for anything other than game servers.
Appreciate you not going aggro on me over it. Lots of times I mention not being quite there for migrating it gets into this really aggravating back and forth where someone aggressively pushes Linux at me and doesn’t like that I’m not instantly on board or that I have reasons they don’t like. 🙄

I don’t want to get into a big debate on it so if you are just curious and have a couple suggestions I’m down to talk about it. But I’m tired of people telling me that my reasoning isn’t good enough for them. Like, great, thanks, glad you can be happy with it, but we aren’t the same person. So I’d prefer to avoid any conversation where I’m just told to suck it up and deal with something. I am working on finding alternatives but all the ones I’ve come across so far are coming up short in a way that’s non negotiable.
My biggest one is my O365 bundle with office apps, oneNote, and OneDrive.
I am going to be trying out libreoffice and OpenOffice this year to see if I can replace word and excel. Last time I tried they weren’t there for me.
OneNote is my second most vital. I’m looking at Notesnook at the moment but I’m really not enthused by a monthly price or the idea of self-hosting in a docker container. I’ve hated most note apps and OneNote was the only one I’ve clicked with so far. I refuse to touch markdown so that kills a lot of them. I’m taking notes with minor edits, and I refuse to add markdown to the process just to do that. I also will not be ok with a webapp. I don’t like webapps in general.
OneDrive is probably my most vital. I have 1TB for me and 1TB each for 5 family accounts. So 6TB total. And I definitely use the space. On top of that I rely heavily on its integration to the file explorer and the mfa locked personal vault section. I don’t want to deal with a web interface or separate app, outside of an authentication hook for the vault, just to access storage.
Outside of the 365 bundle, it’s mostly running dedicated game servers that have no Linux option. And that’s it I believe. Certainly the most impactful applications. I think most other things I run, I can find acceptable alternatives to or can run in wine or something similar without major issue.

It’s tricky because I have things that just don’t translate well to linux, or become considerably more expensive or time consuming to manage / deal with. Linux has a lot to offer and a lot of great. But I’m just going to keep running an out of date OS until I can switch.

While it can be done you have to have a focus on the group over the individual like Japan for It to happen. The main issue faced in most of the countries where litter would be an issue are ones that are more indiviualistic. So you have to upend the entire culture of a country and move its focus off of self and onto the whole. Can it be done? Eventually. Will it be done? Not likely.

But that’s based on the existing thought that we should be functioning from 8am to 5pm for work. If it started later we could easily end later.
- Comment on uhh… my ex girlfriend and long-time friend is now cishet, very christian, and makes those “i identify as” jokes regarding trans people. would it end up bad for me if i continued to be her friend? 2 months ago:
Yes, you’re going to run inti some serious heartache. Either now or later. She sounds like she still doesn’t know who she is if she’s flitting about like that. But the problem is that she’s now being influenced by hateful people. You can try correcting her, telling her not to make those jokes or that those jokes are mean and rude. Point out that those jokes are about people in similar positions to yourself. Maybe even saying “Jesus wouldn’t say that.” or something similar. But if she responds poorly, I’d personally rather be alone than around someone with ideology dangerous to my existence. She’s not nice, she’s insensitive, and being influenced by mean spirited people that may or may not be the type to join on a public lynching.

- Comment on The System Shock 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster pages are on GOG & Steam 2 months ago:
Yup! I thought it was a really fun game. I didn’t play the original so I cannot comment on adherence to the source. But as a standalone game I really enjoyed my time with it.

Guess not. I really liked the remake of the first game. Was a lot of fun.

That’s an excellent list, thanks for sharing all that. I’ll be sure to check them out. I wish FDroid at least allowed some kind of user rating system to make this a little easier but I can understand some reasons to not include that function. If there’s no rating system there’s no raring abuse lol.
