I like the idea of open world games. In practice it depends entirely on the execution, and amount of free time I have. I enjoyed the hell out of Cyberpunk 2077, but have zero desire to play GTA6 or the latest Ubisoft snoozefest.

Waydroid runs on some Ubuntu Touch devices. Probably elsewhere too. Can’t vouch for the performance though, never used it.

You might have been thinking of Mumble

Well it was nice for a while there.

You might have better luck searching on the mobileread forums. Plenty of kindle hacks there.

Total nothingburger. BioBank is a research dataset used for cohort studies. There’s about 500k volunteers who contributed some genetic material, demographic and lifestyle information, anthropometrics and physiological measurements. It’s mostly used to discern possible genetic and lifestyle factors for chronic disease. It’s not like they’re getting access to the whole NHS database and stealing DNA to build supersoldiers.

Look into syncthing. Not sure about encryption tho and I’m not in a position to check RN.

Partner bought me a pet feeder with built in webcam. Worked great for three years until the servers went down. First and last time I trusted any internet connected appliance .

Yeah, there’s a few. Habitica comes to mind, but the generic term for this is “gamification”.

I mean there is peertube for video content. I know my instance runs aNONradio which is pretty eclectic music and talk radio, but there are probably other similar streams. There’s quite a few services for CC licensed music. Personally I listen to a lot of actual play RPG podcasts, which are probably right on the border of hobbyist / side hustle stuff. More indie and low budget than say, critical role or the like, but still partially monetised, even if only to cover costs.

Depends what you mean by “non-commercial” and “stuff”. Does community-supported via Patreon count? Are you after music, video, fiction writing, non-fiction, comics…

Brains do weird shit when you’re not around. Try not to dwell on it.

Hospitality worker here. Working weekends means less time to socialise with friends who are on a M-F schedule and less opportunity to attend events in general because they’re usually scheduled on weekends. You’ll have to put more effort into staying in touch with people and finding things to do on your days off.

I have a terrible feeling it’s a compromised webcam.

I suspect that’s kind of the point, or at least works in their favour. If you don’t know about it, you’re probably pretty new here and therefore a better candidate for a victim.

Saw it coming but I didn’t think it’d be that quick.

Wonder how long we’ll have to wait for the PC port.

Behind!

If you’ve worked in hospitality, you know.

Subdermal armour. Like a flexible, slash-resistant, heatproof mesh under the skin. I work in a kitchen so it’d be nice to be able to ignore those pesky little nicks and burns.
