Are there any Gentoo Linux users here? Just curious...

We bought a Cricut Maker 3. This has to be the coolest thing I've bought for projects since I bought a 3D printer! Too bad I don't have the 3D printer anymore... anyway there are so many cool things we can make! We made names for the kids' lettered piggy banks for Christmas. Next up we're going to make named coffee/tea/hot coco cups!

I recently stubled on nVidia's GeForce Now streaming service. It allows you to play many steam, Epic, and uplay (or whatever it's called now) games on a remote PC with nVidia graphics (including RTX) and stream it to your local device (PC, phone, tablet, etc.)

Holy shit this is so fucking cool! Where has this been my whole life?

I can now play Star Trek...

I got my replacement computer and am back to business as usual now. I hope this one avoids damage!

I've been thinking about ordering Starlink internet from SpaceX. Not to use as my main internet, but to use when camping, away from home, and as a backup when Comcast goes out (which it likes to do from time to time.) Unfortunately when I go to...

So several days ago I found my netbook no longer had a working keyboard or touch pad. Previously it had issues with the shift keys (both of them) randomly stop working. I did a little web searching and found that it was a known issue with this model (a cheapo Dell 2-in-1) caused by a poor design that results in the membrane connecting the keyboard...

We drove from Bellingham, WA to Seaside, OR Friday night. Normally this trip takes about 5 hours, but due to snow and downed trees it took 10 hours. I have never seen this many trees on the road. I would estimate 50+ trees, some were total blocking and had to be dragged off the road and one was so large that we had to wait...

I have started writing some content on Medium. I don't expect to make a lot of money there, but it does look like a decent platform (I've been a reader for over a year!) to get my views on my articles/blogs. I guess time will tell. If anyone is interested, my articles can be viewed at https://canutethegreat.medium.com/

I recently played KF2 (Killing Floor 2) for the first time in probably close to 2 years. It is still a fun game, although a bit dated now. I also had a moment of nostalgia and installed LF4D2 (Left 4 Dead 2) and played one round.. boy that game is even more ancient!

Does anyone know of a modern version of games like KF2 and...

Anyone got any good playlists they've made?

In our weekly work meeting today they announced that we are going to do a "white elephant" book exchange. Next week we'll be provided with the name of a teammate and will have until the end of the month to come up with a book to send that person. The actual book (be it paper or electronic) will be bought by our CEO and sent...
