Bin (Binary) versions of packages, as in the binary executable. Rather than compiling the software (which takes time and is flexible) download the final bin file (quicker to download and set up). Only available for some packages when someone else has compiled and made a release version of it.

If only I knew how to create my own firmware for Leica... then I could call the same crypto-chip and sign any picture I'd like. (Oh wait! There's a github for hacking Leica M8 firmware!)

I use listenbrainz to scrobble (track played music). I like it because it is open source, and they publish using open data. This means that everyone has an equal right to the data, and can use and extend it however they want, which is a feature I wish more services.

There is also Ryot I am keeping my eyes on, as it promises to be an encompassing tracker, including tracking music, but its currently in development.

If I download a file from a questionable source: scan it (with clamscan) If I run an executable I don't trust: use a locked-down (with firejail)

No matter the antivirus, if you keep downloading and running questionable files, you run the risk of viruses. I would say that browsing patterns are more important than any antivirus.

Fully usable with NVidia. I can play all the games I want at the same graphical settings as Windows. (Nvidia 1080)

You've got a very relatable situation. Switching to Linux can be a gradual thing. -Keep your windows main, and get a flash drive boot

  • make a folder on you C:/ or D:/ to store your Linux user files (like downloads and documents). This keeps your windows files more separate from your Linux files. It also let's you keep files across boots. You can delete the Linux folder if you don't want to keep it around.
  • Open up Firefox, and have a browse of your favourite sites. See about logging in and getting your account logged in.
  • what's it like? Is it different to windows? Is the vibe different?
  • try installing your favourite app or game.
  • get curious!
  • too much? Your windows is still right there.

Baby steps! And remember, you don't need to see the whole staircase, just take the first step :)

Oh man definitely Cyberpunk 2077 start screen. Gets you right into the mood for tech'ing up and causing some anarchy.

It starts quiet too. But if I'm not past that screen by the time the beat hits, I'm in that menu until the song ends :D

Why did you choose this approach, vs adding comment metadata to each image? I've had the same initial thought, and now my photo collection has a story within each image, saved within its 'comment' metadata.

I like my approach because the stories are saved right with the image. They are coupled so you don't loose one from another, regardless of software choice. My thought is that in 20 years time, what software and data standards are going to be around? Archival tends to work best when its simple and resilient. How does Journiv handle the text and image data?

Cool looking project :)

Ember is my go-to frame. The immolation skill means it can be quite tanky, and the armor strip from fire blast helps kill tanky enemies.

I used to love Ember before the rework (world on fire) for mindless, easy clearing. Now I love Ember for the guage management mechanic of immolation
