  • For the record, I use a mouse with my non-dominant hand and I can play even fast paced FPS games like Titanfall competently enough. I actually used to dominate on Splitgate for a while. It’s a skill that can be learned. I have the advantage of having done it my whole life and I fully acknowledge that’s hard to replicate, but I think that with some practice anyone should be able to get to the point where they can play slower, primarily mouse driven games like turn based RPGs. Real time with pause might also be doable if you bind the pause button to the mouse (a mouse with some extra bindable keys would really help here). Anyway, just a thought.

    If those options don’t work, maybe look into games like Vampire Survivor, or Realm of The Mad God (though I think the latter does need some rapid mouse inputs when looting, so maybe not so good).



  • Notesnook is fucking fantastic.

    I have spent over a decade - no I am not fucking joking I genuinely mean that - searching for a good Evernote / Onenote replacement. I have tried everything. Obsidian, Joplin, Silverbullet, Trilium, etc, etc, etc, etc, god I have forgotten the names of all the different note apps I’ve tried. They have all sucked. Joplin sucked about the least, but it still never really convinced me to get my stuff off of Onenote.

    Notesnook blows them all away. Syncing is instantaneous (literally, you can type into a note on your phone and watch the words appear one at a time on your laptop), you’ve got S3 storage for attachments, sharable notes that can be password protect and set to self-destruct, lockable notes, read only notes, everything is exportable in multiple different formats, notes can be linked to multiple notebooks, notebooks can be nested, notes can be tagged, there’s bi-directional notebook linking, an attachment manager, every note has an auto-generated table of contents, the WYSIWYG editor is beautiful and works flawlessly, they have a web-app (unlike Joplin or any of the other commonly recommended solutions), there’s a web clipper that works really nicely with multiple different clipping formats, the phone app has one for one feature parity with desktop and web, they’ve got an absolutely beautiful code-block system with a copy button built right in so it’s incredible for storing config files or instructions for a self-hosting process… I could go on but I think I’ve ranted enough.

    Also, just to be clear, Notesnook is fully self-hostable. There’s an excellent guide here: https://sh.itjust.works/post/31407921. If you self-host, you get all the pro features automatically.

    You can host the web-app as well if you like - it doesn’t have a dockerized version yet, but the code is all up on their github - but you can also use the web-app on their server to connect to your back-end, so it’s really not necessary.











  • I use it to produce video content for my company, so pretty good I’d say.

    For context, I would not claim to be a “professional video editor”, but I do have to edit videos in a professional context which is the same thing, technically speaking, but definitely not practically speaking. Anyways, for my purposes I’ve had no serious issues. Some crashes - save often - but no difficulty producing good looking results that my bosses have been happy with.
