My kids, unfortunately, love the game, so I’ve kept up with performance a little bit. It seems they’re trying their best to make it run like trash. They can’t even support the few operating systems it does run on. I haven’t noticed any mind blowing graphics updates, but fps is around a third of what it used go be. Such a garbage company.

I can’t wait till those regulations get enforced.

That’s great! I also use smart plugs for grow lamps! So convenient. The home country of the creator of Linux. Lucky! :)

We have the litter robot. It was pretty expensive, and can be a little quirky at times, but for the most part it’s been a real time saver.

The biggest problem is that it can get stuck while doing it’s rotation, which then requires you to intervene. It really doesn’t happen often, though. It’s had errors similar to that around 5 times or so in the past couple years. Not too bad.

We change out the turd bag around once per week. 2 cats have access 24/7, and another cat has access 12-15 hours per day.

Tech to make day to day chores easier have had the largest impact for us. The automated self cleaning liter box for the cats, the cordless vacuum, the cordless electric mop (such as Tineco), electric lawn mowers (no maintenance), smart outlets and automations via home assistant.

Another big one is the RO water filter at the kitchen sink. No more bottled water. Bonus points if you get one that tells you when fillters need to be changed. So nice.

I don’t mean to be that American that always brings up America, but this all sounds very familiar.

You don’t want to hear about how many American football fields are in a mile?

You win best username. I’m assuming you’re a Linux nerd as well. <3

It was recently brought to my attention, while being attacked for being part of a union and owning an EV, that the problem with America is employers treating employees too well.

Nope! I had thought about trying out their 4k box, but nope.

I would absolutely run FreeBSD on my laptop if the WiFi wasn’t awful. It doesn’t matter which chipset, max is like 20 Mbps. Rouuugh.

On the server side of things, Docker/Podman is so convenient, and keeps me from blowing so much time on “maintenance.”

Hopefully, some day, I can daily a BSD. Until then- NixOS!
