I used liftoff and moved to thunder when my instance moved to 0.19.

I changed some settings to my liking and now I'm used to it. It isn't a drop in replacement but is okay. It works in landscape mode and has a dark mode and almoled dark mode.

Thanks for you comment, didn't think of that.

I bought the used pallet collar's for a company I know and it shipped and stored stainless steel. I'm fine with that. But if someone isn't comfortable with used new pallet collar's are about €15.

The free pallets I used only moved pavement stones once, so I also think it fine. But yeah don't just pick something on the side of the road to grow food in.

A other comment mentioned chemical treatment of pallets. I didn't think of that. Most pallet in the eu are not allowed to use chemicals to treat the wood. Only heat treatment. That covers eur/epal pallets and single use pallets. Basically the only ones that are free or cheap. And it most be printed on the pallet how they are treated.

That being said be careful especially in countries without laws against using chemicals on pallets.

So I'm fine using them also understand other people are not. Then buying new are just wood for the store is always a option.

It's forbidden to use chemical treatment on Eur pallet/epal pallets. They are only heat treated. Single use pallet are also forbidden to use chemical treatment, but are normally not heat treated. So for the eu the treatment is not the problem. Of course didn't think of the rest of the world. Sorry for that.

For the stuff that's was on the pallet collar's stored and transported stainless steel and the free pallets I got where form work and shipped some pavement stones.

If you don't feel safe buy/getting for free used. New epal pallet collar's are about €15. They are only heat treated by law.

I "just" moved and now taking care of the garden. I want a small vegetable garden (again) in raised beds.

You have a lot of raised beds kits the cheapest ones are €40 and more expensive ones are €90. I however used pallet collar's at €5 a piece. You don't even have to screw them together just put them down. For some custom size beds I use free pallets. They do take some work however.

Give them one treatment with linseed oil and you can use them for years. They live longer then the cheap kits and just a bit shorter then expensive ones. (Hardwood probably out life them)

Kits for vegetable gardens are most of the time really overpriced. Raised beds kits, tool kits and so on.

If you want high quality tools buy them of course, but starter kits are most of the time just the cheapest ones at a premium. Want hardwood raised beds, just buy wood and not a kit.

I suggest start on the cheap side, see if it your hobby. Buy cheap tools they already least long enough and if they break you know that you maybe want to invest in a premium one. Because you use that tool really often. (Second hand old tools are sometimes a better option of course)

As someone how yesterday got home 3 pallets and 4 pallet collar's in a Twingo. I disagree.

You don't want to do that every day for work, but in a pinch small cars fit enough. Need more room for a project at home? Get a cart. My Twingo can tow a light cart. That's 99% of all use cases for me.

Need even more rent a van. We did that with moving houses and it fits so much more then a pickup.

I really think 99% of people will be fine with a small car and a hinge. You get pretty good mileage and a small car that is not a dead trap for everybody outside. Even small ev's are great for that.

I made some posters in krita for work. Worked okay. Just make sure you start with the good ratio in px for printing.

I always try to drive in QHD at 144 fps. At 720p you don't have enough resolution to see all the bicycles on time.

I know some Linux users trash talk Nvidia on Linux like it just a piece of shit. But it's simply okay. Don't get me wrong it's not great. But it works.

But if you have a simple setup it will probably work. My SO PC has a rtx 2060 and one monitor and it works fine.

You can of course always dual boot. I still have windows for VR gaming and just in case. I do recommend a stable os with Nvidia (especially if you just starting out with Linux). Something like pop os. Don't go with arch just for the meme.

With dual booting you can try Linux and test if it's okay for you. If not just give the disk space back to windows. If not great keep using Linux.

Just ordered some boards a week ago for meshtastic. Maybe I can find some people in the wild.

Not op but also don't have a steamdeck, but my tv setup is also reported as steamdeck. I use Chimera OS on my PC connected to my living room tv.

It uses just some old parts left over a 4 gen i5 and a Rx 470.
