Thanks. I've been running Linux servers for over 5 years and a few Linux laptops for 2-3 years. I just never moved my gaming PC over. I was like the third wave of Steam Deck owners. That proved to me that gaming on Linux is possible now. I just give up on any game that has kernel level anti-cheat for now. But, the amount of cheaters pulled me from most of those games a while ago...
TACO?
I finally made the switch recently. Been dual booting for a while. I use arch on my laptop for fun and Linux Mint Debian Edition on my desktop for stability.
Mike Birbiglia has a really funny bit about this. Calling the shampoo, body wash, tooth paste, "sham-paste". Of course watch his comedy special as my comment won't do it justice. I think of it everytime I'm in the bath aisle at a store.
My smart home is Home Assistant hosted on a server in my house. It's fully open source and has gone through multiple paid audits to show its security is good too. The only non-local-only integrations are the weather api's and my thermostat (ecobee).
Lmao, it's a Rick roll on archive.org!
Steaming services don't give it to you for free with the only ads being for the premium version of their service that you don't really need..
I always flush with the lid down. Keeps less in the air.
If only they supported Linux better, or really like at all... I know you can grab the files and install without DRM. But, the whole lack of a client makes it a nuisance to use. I used to buy everything on GOG when possible. Since I got a Steam Deck that's changed. I shouldn't have to use Heroic Launcher IMO..
Home Automation. It can be as simple as buying a hub and some devices. But, I went the self-hosted route using Home Assistant to give me more control of what it can do.
I have some automations that turn on a certain set of lights on when the sun sets and off when it rises. It's pretty simple, but saves electricity because I used to leave my front porch light on 24/7.
I just set up an automation last night that sends me a discord notification when the laundry machine finishes and the same for the dryer. I can't hear the beeping because I am always too far from the laundry room. This one has me so excited!
I've seen people automate gardens which seems really neat. Really, your only limit is your imagination. I also just really like having an app on my phone to toggle power to random lights and fans around my house. It helps me get out of bed because I can turn the fan off when I'm cold in bed.
