  • Arch Linux for desktop. Whatever for servers, usually ubuntu, though I’ve been tempted to use arch then too when dealing with out of date software.

    1. Software is always up to date
      • instead of old with security backports which have always kind of skeeved me out
      • so upstream issue systems are relevant
      • so I get new features without having to wait
    2. When I have to turn a wrench the wiki and forums are amazing
    3. I feel like I control my system


  • There are only 5 games in that category of Zelda game in the first place.

    • ocarina of time
    • majora’s mask
    • windwaker
    • twilight princess
    • skyward sword

    Breath of the wild and tears of the kingdom are totally different formula and the rest are not 3d.

    For me it kind of goes windwaker -> oot/majora/skyward -> twilight. So I’d say it’s up there, and the fact it’s so foundational should give it some extra points. I’m amazed they haven’t done a remake to up the graphics and give it modern controls tbh



  • if you build a standard and no one follows it. then it’s wasted time and money. Meta, Google and Microsoft

    Google, Microsoft, and Apple also already account for the vast majority of desktop OS installations

    the issue is, VPNs hide your ISPs assigned IP. till now there has been a higher difficulty in differentiating traffic from the same IP with similar metadata. the more user specific metadata that’s added, the easier it is to differentiate devices and users.

    And you think that the data they get being “is an adult” or “is a child we’re not allowed to collect data on”, per the API part of the specification is useful for that?

    If Microsoft and Google are also angling for this why is it only meta lobbying?

    I think meta has some scheme to profit from this stuff, possibly also at the expense of Google, Microsoft, Apple in addition to consumers.
