I’ve been using ViewTube specifically because it was easier to set up. Although it also fails to play videos occasionally

For me learning I was aroace was hugely freeing, realising I could just opt out of the whole dating mess

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!

Much better than expect. This has been the first year where we’ve had someone outside of our immediate family join us (my brother’s girlfriend) and it’s been very pleasant.

Going to start working my way through the Christmas ales I’ve been saving now!

Working my way through Anne McCaffrey’s Pern novels again. Read them first as a child and it’s lovely being back in that world again

In fairness, games are still something I’m willing to pay for and books. I think probably because Kindle and Steam are better user experiences than pirating those.

I used to have a moral objection to piracy, I thought that if a piece of media is good enough that I enjoy it then the people that made it deserve to be paid for their work.

I’m increasingly of the opinion that even if I do pay for something there is no guarantee that the people that worked on it will get their fair share and paying for media is increasingly a worse user experience than piracy.

I turned down a few graphic settings but honestly thoughly playable. Looking forward to performance patches so I can turn some of the eye candy back on

I’m enjoying it. I’ve remembered that I’m terrible at building cities, but I’m having fun while coming to that realization again! Performance is mid 50fps with about 5000 people at 1080p with a 2080 super and a ryzen 3600x.

On day 8 out of 8 in a row at work. Got 3 days off starting tomorrow and Cities Skyline 2 to dig into.

Omg, they have an arm Linux version. That’s going right on my Chromebook tomorrow!

Thank you for keeping on top of this Chris. I’m having a heavy week at work and I’ve not kept up with what’s working and what isn’t so your updates have been invaluable.

When I’ve got some days off I’m probably going to spin up a viewtube or invidious instance on either my home server or VPS and have done with it!

Yes. Not taking into account anything except the output of the laser verses the output of the reaction.
