Shouldn’t have troubles since it’s 12th gen.

I have a Beelink with an 8th gen i5 that I bought a year or two ago and I love it. Runs Plex 24/7 right next to one of my tvs and the only time I hear it is if I’m in the same room when someone wakes it up to start a stream. The fan kicks in for 2-3 seconds then goes quiet.

I didn’t have a vehicle prior to the purchase, just used my bike or grabbed a ride from someone. Probably should’ve just got a small car and a rack but it’s paid for itself during our recent move so it worked out.

I was amazed recently how hard it was to find a proper small truck. Just wanted something to carry my bicycle so I could try some different trails that are farther from my house.

All the new trucks are huge and the old small trucks are expensive. Ended up with a “mid-sized” Nissan and it’s bigger than the F-150s all my friends had growing up. I still want an old Ford Ranger or something but they’re just too damn expensive now.

This doesn’t happen on 1.45.0. I hadn’t updated Voyage in a while so I tested it. Once updated it started happening.

I have a Kobo, you can set it to “sideload mode” and you don’t need an account of any kind. It disables the store and all that and I never turn WiFi on so it’s completely offline.

I use Calibre, an amazing FOSS ebook manager, to sync my books to the Kobo.

Pretty much just download whatever from Anna’s Archive, throw it in Calibre and get it to fetch all the artwork and metadata if I want it and sync to the Kobo.

Calibre takes a little getting used to but it’s not too bad, it’s also extremely powerful once you learn more about it.

I believe Steam is just showing you games that can run natively on Linux. You have to run Windows games through wine/proton like the Deck does.

I don’t actually have an anything except the Deck running Linux so I can’t help beyond that. I may even be wrong but it’s at least a place to start searching.

There’s some BDSM dom/sub kinda stuff in Billions. At least in the first few season, tapered off in the later seasons because of story developments. But it even had a place in the story since the character was a public figure and didn’t want it to be public knowledge.
