Moto G Stylus (2021) user with no screen problems here. My only gripes is Motorolas shitty update policies and lack of custom rom support. Guess I can’t complain for a sub-$200 phone.

Makes me miss Colorado.

This actually hits home a bit. My wife and son both deal with severe depression (major depression disorder). It's a challenge at times and can't say I'm not impacted by the same.

I'm not Appalachian, but pretty close to that area (Southwest Ohio / Cincinnati).

I haven't been able to solve my wife's and sons issues (both do take medication). For myself though, I find limiting certain things do help. For instance.....

#1: I've abandoned all/most forms of social media. The platforms I'm on I limit my time

#2: Having hobbies outside of tech helped balance some emotional states / burnout. Taking a interest in hiking and kayaking has been a great disconnect for me.

#3: Pay less attention to political dramas and other fear inducing platforms. I still check in on major things, but reducing this helped my anxiety and depression.

There's no one size fits all for depression. Overall loving a healthy balanced life seems key.....just easier said then done in today's world.

They should have put some RGB lights and a massive heatsink for that photo op. Gotta at least sell that's it's not a Raspberry Pi quantum SoC haha.

Absolutely agree, Ive grown to respect the tradition and ritual side for sure. Even my kids, the only side they really know about religion is more on the tradition side. Mainly because that's what they have been exposed to throughout my larger family.

Growing up I was forced into religion and never quite understood the appeal. Typically I'd sneak my Gameboy and zone everything out for some Links Awakening, Metroid and Pokemon Red.

Looking back on it I was a nerdy kid heavily into science and math. The religious concepts often went up against known facts which led me to dismiss the "make believe" at a young age.

Been an atheist most my life after I was old enough to successfully get out of the religious bubble.

With that said......AI bots spewing non-sense is absolutely the best use case. All hail put machine chat bot overlords!

MicroOS user here. Honestly I love the workflow of using distrobox for about everything I need.

Essentially I have distrobox images setup for specific development workflows. I just hop into the one that is suited for the task I'm doing. It automatically sets up icons in the Gnome menu if you don't want to use the cli commands.

Between flatpaks and containers I couldn't be happier with my setup. Combine that with the fact I can potentially trust the underlying OS to not crap the bed via updates (and when it does I can roll back my filesystem snapshots) is a win/win.

I played through it on my Xbox a few months back (picked it up during one of the sales). The base / main game does still have some glitches and bugs every now and then.

For the most part thought the game is gorgeous, fun and the gameplay/atmosphere outweigh a lot of those other oddities.

No regrets on the purchase. Hopefully with this they worked out some additional kinks.

My Pantum P2500W has been seamless across many distros. Its a cheap little laser printer that costs usually sub-$100.
