To be honest I haven't even bothered checking my totals lol, there isn't really any point. They hold no meaning outside of the context of a thread IMO

Ah, that's a tough one.

I needed to install Ungoogled Chromium to join lectures, because the remote learning site refused to work in Firefox (wouldn't be surprised if it was developed against a chrome-specific API)

The last time I used Chrome was a fork called Rockmelt 🥴 then moved to Maxthon, then K-Meleon, and settled on Firefox

Do people still get fined for jaywalking in the likes of NY?

Before finding out about Backblaze I still did file backups to disc lol. Now the only time I touch a disc is when it's being ripped 😂

Pretty much my experience when using piped on my desktop, quick to resolve so not too much of an issue.

On the other side of things, my partner got tired of that and now uses FreeTube (which falls back to Invidious on failure IIRC)

Portable and pretty budget, a G29 + arduino with a large LCD to show live dashboard data, head tracking with OpenTrack + PS3 Eye webcam (extremely versatile camera, pretty handy for machine vision with its 120FPS support. Only downside is 640x480 max res, and the 4x array mics only work on Linux)

Only outlier is stick shift running via the Arduino for a few reasons, mainly to reduce wires and setup/packing time (need my desk for other things too, sadly can't afford a permanent rig), and also to avoid mapping the gears in new games. I just switch between usb emulation of a known device, or sending keypresses 1-6, R

Get my simulator setup working under WINE and i'll do a full switch, until then it's Windows on my gaming PC and linux on everything else lol

Omg that's absolutely disgusting if true.

Is there not a single rich CEO who isn't a mental outlier in some way?

Just don't buy them off Amazon, Walmart, Newegg etc... buy straight from the manufacturer. There's a lot of counterfeits about

I keep the previous generation as a backup

This is what I thought I could do with my old devices, an S4 and an S5, but shortly after moving my data to each upgraded device the internal EMMC failed on each.

The s4 powers on into some OEM flashing mode (nothing on the screen, just appears as a Qualcomm something when plugged into usb), and the S5 shows this horror inducing message
