I was playing Baldur’s Gate 3 shortly after release and got a popup from Bing over the game asking if I wanted to enable Bing in Chrome. I immediately blocked bing.com on my network. Never looked back.

We all forgetting Maggie just straight-up murdered someone for trying to take her lollipop?

Pretty attached. My parents picked it.

That’s a coincidence, I was drooling over this exact keyboard just this morning. I like a numeric keypad in the office but most keyboards are just a little too wide. Hope you enjoy it. Which switches did you go for?

Veeam Agent going to a NAS on-site and the NAS is backed up nightly to IDrive because it’s the cheapest cloud backup service I could find with Linux support. It’s a bit slow, very CPU-bound, but it’s robust and their support is pretty responsive.

Yeah, 4K here and I feel your pain. Thanks.

Relate to this? Buy two single duvets. Saved my marriage.

Yeah it does kinda matter, which is problematic for onboarding new users. Personally:

• I read the rules/TOS.
• I checked the Instances page to make sure instances I wanted to access were linked and not blocked.
• I looked for any introduction posts to see what the backend infrastructure was like.
• I checked the username I wanted was available.

It should not be that complicated, but it also has to be unfortunately. I had to make sure all those things matched what I personally wanted. This much choice is great for heavily-invested tech nerds with free time but sucks for anyone else wanting to join in.
