  • While I definitely agree for desktop situation. The landscape for PC gaming has changed dramatically, there are some sub ~$1000 laptops that are not bad entry points. Same with the Steam Deck and ROG Ally, both are decent entry points for someone interested in PC gaming with not a massive budget.





  • Thing is. Good chance your neighbour was probably a victim of crime. A few nights in a row I was making supper and someone was trying to get in my place by trying the handle. My packages also started to go missing and a few years ago someone walked into my apartment while I was trying to wrangle my cat because the fire alarm was going off, pretty sure they wanted to rob my place because they left without saying anything and got freaked out when they saw me still there. It’s nice having it because I can see who is at my door Without putting myself in the line of fire, and it deters people from pulling any bullshit while I’m not home.

    It’s understandable that it’s a bit annoying it’s pointed right at your door. Mine doesn’t face anyone’s door. Just the hallway, you could ask your neighbour to install an angled adapter so it’s not facing your door. Personally I treat my building hallways like I would treat any public place, and always assume there’s a camera somewhere. There’s also a very good chance there is CCTV in your building already if it’s a larger building.












  • Yes. I’ve searched manually for most of mine based on my people i follow on Twitter, they are not all there, and they will be missed. I’ve got a few mirrored accounts I’m following, but it’s not the end of the world if they get cut off from the blue bird (they are mostly sports team feeds). I have also gone back to RSS feeds for my news feed. I like the social aspect of Twitter, it’s just turned into a hate platform that scientifically exploits its users by making it addicting to doom scroll. And the interactions I’ve had on Mastadon/Lemmy are way more wholesome than there, fediverse really does remind me of the early days of Digg/Reddit/Twitter.
