I tried to get my nephews into pokemon nintendo games when they were like 10. Failed bad because "too much reading" and went back to Roblox...

You don't need to go back in time for that.

Just go visit the Amish!

From what I've learn (mainly from mainstream media) I respect their choice to maintain thier culture and lifestyle. Something to be said from having no rat race and living a simple life off of the land.

Ahora tengo gato would've worked just as good

Wired is king.

If I gotta do wireless I get one with a RF dongle/base.

Astro A50 Wireless. Needs a dongle but it's waaaay more stable than any bluetooth headset. Both on range and audio quality.

WF isn't pay to win.

Its pay to look fly.

I was playing the first descendant. They had free armor dye giveaways.

  • can't use them unless you can a skin
  • when you do use it then it's gone. Stuck on that character AND skin...

Fuck that game right there.

Color packs cost like $2.50 for a paintjob in TFD and that's like 5 colors.

Warframe has color themes with a full set of things like camo, smoke or sky. You unlock the pallete and you can reuse it everywhere in your account.

Simple Spanish too. You could read this with a bit of American high school spanish

Preach. Get a food scale!

I counted calories for a bit to eat healthier and balance my nutrition.

I stopped after 3 months but I quickly realized that serving sizes ae WAY smaller than you'd think.

A bowl of cereal or chips could be 2 or 3 servings. Donuts and muffins are garbage. Ham and cheese? Triple the ham and cut the cheese in half. Mayo is horrible but plain mustard is 0 cal.

I didn't eat any less but I made my meals healthier and lost weight without changing my workout.

I also ate bad stuff without cheating. Chicken salad for dinner and a scoop of ice cream for a late night snack under budget.

No I mean take a regular shower and let her stand behind you and hold your wee wee while you pee pee.

... Didn't think I needed to spell it out.

What we need is a president to pull a bait and switch. Gotta play the long game though.

Kamala got so many donations she literally can't spend it all before election day. Next best thing? Get more democrats elected at the state level so we can get good bills actually passed.

Maybe then we can start fixing shit.

This reminds me of the wood chips delivery in the driveway bit...

Depending on where you're based, you'll find PayPal's new data-sharing option under a different name. Remember, you may not see this at all if you're based in a country that doesn't allow it.

If you're in the US, you should head to your profile Settings and tap on Data & privacy. Under Manage shared info, click on Personalized shopping. You should see the option enabled by default. Toggle off the button at the right to opt-out.

If you are in the UK like me, you'll see something different after you head to your profile Settings and tap on Data & privacy.

Under Manage your privacy settings, here you'll see an Interest-based marketing tab – click on it. At this point, two options will appear: Interest-based marketing on PayPal and Internet-based marketing on your accounts. You have to tap on each of these and toggle off the button at the right to opt-out. These instructions can also apply if you're based in the EU.

Apologies if this is the wrong instance for this.

Is there a best option for HTPC streaming solutions besides throwing Linux on an old desktop? Plugging in a desktop for streaming doesn't work too well for wall mounted televisions. My options are mini PCs or a 3rd party streaming stick. Even a RasPi stick running OSMC should do the trick.

These 3rd party sticks online are extremely tempting for power and features but I'm concerned about embedded malware. Best option would be to wipe it and load OSMCor raspbian to ensure its clean. Anyone have experience with this?

Care to share your setup?

$14.41 | DQ06 ATV Mini TV Stick Android12 Allwinner H618 Quad Core Cortex A53 Support 8K Video 4K Wifi6 BT Voice Remote Smart TV Box | Link

Runner up: $12.90 | Orange Pi Zero 2 W 1GB RAM DDR4 Mini PC Allwinner H618 Orange Pi Zero 2W WiFi Bluetooth SBC Single Board Computer Zero2W | Link


Update: My ideal solution would be $20-$50 for a replacement to several fire sticks in my home. For a solution around $100 I'd just go with a old refurbished mini pc from ebay/amazon and throw full Linux on it.

Setting up Kodi via the linux OSMC distro or even Android TV both work. Might stream games with steam link. Eventually going to setup jellyfin in my home

Current Plan: Get a mini pc and mount it behind / near my television. Ideally I would prefer just a stick for a cleaner / cheaper solution.

Update2:

Finally researched about the Orange Pi (rasp alternative) and the darn thing comes with full hdmi! Orange Pi 3B Full HDMI and SD / eMMC / M2 (sata3) slots!
