That's interesting; I didn't know it could do that. Looking around the Pi forums, it looks like it's reasonably playable at lower resolutions unless there's a lot happening on the screen. Though with an eGPU it appears it can be played well at 4K. For those who come after me, here's a link to building dhewm3 (doom) on the Pi: https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=351364

Pi5 8Gb. If you're going to use it as a daily driver I'd recommend this one. You may also compress ram with rpi-swap/zram, which will help you fit more things into that 8Gb at the expense of some CPU cycles.

I'm using a Raspberry Pi. I bet those specs are worse than yours! Kuddos for the community.

I believe that is a Symphylan. It’s been ages since I’ve seen one of these and it was cool to be reminded they exist!

The bigger issue for me is Joplin stores your notes in some sort of database. Obsidian, for example, stores your data in flat markdown files making it easier to import into or read in other apps.

Joplin does have a note export feature, but I found it left a mass of files that needed some manual fixing.

I’d wager this photo was taken in the fall and these are probably Asian ladybugs. Ladybugs generally will aggregate in an outside location suitable for overwintering (e.g: under tree bark). Asian ladybugs specifically have a preference for human structures and as you’ve seen, get into everything. Sometimes they dehydrate and die, leaving you little memories of their past lives.

Fun fact. The ladybugs you buy at the garden store in the spring are often collected during this diapause period.

Well Amazon has free returns, so no harm in trying. Gotta admit, I’m a little anxious for you now. Hope it works out!!

Nicely done! Were the 50 blurry shots you trying not to get stung? :)

Currently parked in it!

Yup. Find me a car that respects my privacy and won't advertise to me and I'm in.

Edit to add: and no fuucking subscriptions to enable things the car can already do but disabled in software.

Like with all tasks of this nature, you tend to go through some duds. I search up on Reddit and Lemmy for ideas and take those to Amazon and eBay. That said, while not perfect, soulwit and geekria are who I got my pads from and would buy again. Both are on Amazon.

FYI, in my experience it takes a few days for new pads to “cure” into place (assuming it’s on completely). Once they have gone tight around the cup, it’s fine (for me).

Just replace the ear pads if you can. I’ve used both velour and micro suede pads on my SONY MDR v6 and 600 and it’s been a solid replacement. It’s been eight years now and no issues.
