I’ve done all of that except for pi hole, and that’s just because NextDNS seems to be doing the job, although they probably sell my information too. I really should set Pi Hole up, especially since I already have a Raspberry Pi running all the time for my 3d Printer, running OctoPrint, and Klipper. I’ll need to test and see if it can run all 3 at once. Unfortunately that doesn’t really negate what I said. Every new exciting technology is rife with spyware, and the old Internet, while not gone, is certainly buried under a massive pile of corporate garbage. Google, Bing, DDG, hell, even Kagi have a hell of a time finding little useful websites built because of passion, instead of profit now.
It’s gone. Computers will never again be as exciting as they were in the early 00’s, because every new advancement now comes with an infringement, a “gotcha”, a sacrifice of your privacy, and a subscription to cap it off. Computers used to feel personal, they felt empowering, they felt like they were yours, and they were a gateway to a million little worlds created by people of all sorts. Now they feel like corporate advertising platforms that are just a gateway to other corporate advertising platforms.
That sounds cool. My only exposure to Pathfinder was the Pathfinder: Kingmaker game, which felt a lot like the predecessor to Baldur’s Gate 3. I haven’t played it on Table Top. I’d definitely try it if someone had the books though. I already have a lot of D&D books, which makes it my go-to game.
What a wasted opportunity. The Academy Awards don’t resort to advertising upcoming movies the whole time, they take a pause to appreciate what they’ve made. The game of the year awards should do the same.
Does it? I haven’t tried. When I tried to use a PS4 Pro controller in the past it messed it up and I had to reset it to use it with the console again. Can you use PS5 controllers with a Linux PC?
