And…! You can sync multiple devices across NextCloud! Tablet and phone? Synced!

Agreed. I use Lutris on 37, and play a bunch of stuff with no issues. Took me too long to figure out how to use the Lutris posts, but it’s been smooth sailing ever since.

I’ve played a bit of CoH Homecoming and Guild Wars 2 via Lutris, no issues. I know neither of those are particularly new games, but they run fine.

A Fraudian Slip! Do I get Dad Joke points?

Specs are tricky with laptops. I have two laptops with very similar specs. Same CPU, same RAM, etc. The Dell… sucks. It just runs like a slug who is drunk and disinterested. The MSI goes like a cheetah on speed.

You can set it to t9 mode, so 1=a, 11=bb 111=C… Ouch! I don’t use it that way unless I’m feeling nostalgia for the 90’s.

I got mine by walking into a store in Fukuoka over Christmas. I’ve used Buyee in the past before, might be possible to get it from them though?

I have some Loop Experience earplugs. I have them for migraine, and they are decently comfortable, and make things a bit more tolerable. I got them, and then saw that they have these new adjustable ones that let you set the filter level with a dial. Maybe them?

They are pricey though. Also, I ordered black ones and got shiny purple…

Here’s hoping you don’t get the purple! I can’t remember if pink was an option…

I have tinnitus and it sounds just like power supplies, except it comes from nowhere. So, when I hear the squeal, I turn my head. If the squeal noise follows the movement of my head, tinnitus. If it stays put, power supply!

It’s like skunk and pot! (I’m in Canada, it’s legal and everywhere.) If I smell it, I look around. If I see a burrow, skunk! If I see a dozy looking dude with red eyes…

Concussions. People get knocked out by a blow to the head or neck? They stay knocked out for an hour or so? They wake up okay?

I slipped on ice and cracked the side of my skull into the corner of a dumpster. I was out for…? It was the dead of winter. In Canada. -30. I couldn’t have been out more than a minute or two.

I was all kinds of messed up for months. I couldn’t control my arms right. My emotions went haywire. I had blinding headaches for weeks.

I still have nasty chronic headaches and memory loss. It happened more than ten years ago!

Knocked out for long enough to wake up tied up in a warehouse? Nah, you died. Buffy? Dead. James Bond? Dead. Sorry.
