I played Balatro for the first time a few weeks ago and thought “I could make a killing if I made the chess version of this”. But I don’t know how to make games - much less computer games - so no money for me. Just a game to play instead

I appreciate the ability for the tor-like layered routing with tribler. Getting the headless UI set up is annoying, though.

Server is running the password manager for myself and family, and that needs to stay on while gone (there are ways of handling local copies and they sync later, but when ive accidentally had to troubleshoot that it sucks).

Then ive got nextcloud, which while i don’t normally need things on there i do enough that it is nice to have.

“according to Western Officials”, i.e. the people who are (formally or informally) at war with Russia and have been isolating North Korea. They are a very biased source

Playing games was fine - it was loading things up that has sucked. I haven’t gotten dota up on the SSD yet, but on the HDD it was real clunky and would half-load the landing page and sit there for ~10 seconds.

The biggest difference, though, is that firefox now opens immediately instead of taking ~10 seconds after clicking the icon

Datasette is a neat tool intended to publish static data in a sqlite database on the web with a helpful gui and a bunch of extensions available. I havent come across a good enough reason to do it myself, but may do what you want.

You can spin it up locally and it wont be on the web at all, just accessed via your browser if thats what you want.
