On Linux, I’m using Firefox as my main browser and Vivaldi as my secondary browser.

On android, some of my devices have Firefox, some of them have Fennec F-Droid and the devices that don’t have very much storage space have Via Browser. If you’re wondering why I have both Firefox and F-Droid’s Fennec, it’s because I used to just use Fennec but then at some point F-Droid announced that Fennec was outdated and it was missing several security updates that were present in Firefox. I switched to Firefox on the devices I use browsers on more actively but I didn’t see a reason to switch all of them.

I’m not sure why they weren’t on the list but Sonic 1 and 2 are also free as well.

It’s been added to the F-Droid archive. I don’t know exactly what F-Droid’s threshold is for moving apps to the archive but Blockinger hasn’t been updated in over 10 years, so I guess it makes sense.

The archive isn’t accessible through browsers but it can be enabled on both the official F-Droid client and third-party clients.

So far, the only thing I know for sure that I would consider using it for is to use JoiPlay to play RPG Maker games that I can’t get working with my normal methods but at least on my current computer/distro, I’m having issues with audio crackling.

I might find other apps to use later but for the most part, I just kind of keep android apps to android.

This is the reason box86/64 exists.

I once annoyed one of my friends in high school while he was trying to write a story/book (I don’t remember if he was actually trying to write his own book or if it was just a story). One day, I saw that he was typing a sentence that said something about one of the characters “whipping out his cellphone” and I said “oh, is that what we’re calling it now”. I would then occasionally look back at his story without actually reading anything and laugh a little. At first he thought it was funny but at some point he started getting annoyed and kept telling me to stop.

I haven’t tried that many hot sauces but I like hot sauces that have a good mix of both heat and flavor. What I prefer depends on what I’m eating, so sometimes I prefer Tapatio and other times I prefer (real) Sriracha. I do also sometimes use other hot sauces like the ghost pepper ranch from Wendy’s when I can get them.

It’s been a while since I last laughed that hard but it was when Vinesauce played Gat Life: Boyfriend Bar.

Yeah, blood has a smell. I don’t know why but some people can’t smell it at all, while some people can smell it from pretty far way. I’ve never tested exactly how sensitive I am to the smell but, for example, if a woman is having her time of the month, I can usually smell it from several feet away.

I had the cliche phase of thinking that I was a vampire because a combination of a few things. I have a problem with my teeth where it caused my “K9s” to protrude outwards, I don’t have a normally detectable pulse and I’ve always been able to smell other peoples blood from abnormally far away but I can never smell my own. I know now that these are things that can happen to anyone but back then, I didn’t know any better.

I think the dream may have been influenced by at least one of those types of games but I don’t remember which one at this point.

I somewhat recently had a pretty weird dream that I was a lust demon who helped other demons fight evil demons.

It starts off with me being back in high school but I noticed that something was off. All the girls there were very interested in me, even going as far as the try and flash me when they walked past. At the end of the day, I had to stay over because there was a book fair (or something, I don’t remember what it was). As I was getting my stuff to leave, I heard a weird voice coming from one of the classrooms. When I walked in, I saw one of my teachers talking to himself in the mirror but for some reason, he looked and sounded like Conan O’Brien.

At first I tried to pretend I didn’t notice but he saw me and explained to me that he was a pride demon who can both shape-shift and mimic voices. He then mentioned that he could sense that I was one of them and taught me how to awaken my powers. As a lust demon, along with having tentacles, my abilities were super strength and speed and an unnatural attractiveness. After that the school was attack by demons who created these magic cubes that would trap and crush the other students who were also still there.

I fought them off and escaped to the roof tops of some nearby buildings. My teacher, who still looked like Conan, came to the same roof top to tell me that the rest of the demons were dealt with. Then another demon hunter came and asked why I was there. I showed her my tentacles and she briefly seemed surprised but then went back to looking angry and looked away from me. She then said something like “You’re a lust demon? Fine.” and flew away and I woke up shortly after.

Yes it’s possible. LibreOffice, for example, can open, edit and even save to those formats.

Back in the days of MS-DOS, there was something called “PC-Booters”. They were created because of the fact that there was a lot of different operating systems that were actively used. So their solution was to just create a basic OS that contained the bare minimum required to run the game.

I’m not really into them. I bought some in high school, back when I still actively watched anime but it just seemed to expensive to continue buying them. I know that I can read them online and I do sometimes but I feel bad for not supporting the creators.

I am, wireplumber is part of pipewire.

While I have already found a working solution, I think the issue wasn’t that it was selecting the wrong device. it was almost as if my normal audio devices didn’t exist for some reason because nothing could see them, even my input devices were missing.

Ok, even though I said I’d wait until tomorrow, I decided to try it again. It seemed to boot more or less normally but I did try someone else’s suggestion and it got audio working again. I did undo the edit I made to the modprobe blacklist and I did keep fluidsynth and pulseaudio uninstalled but I tried using the wireplumber ppa, like someone else suggested and my audio is working again. Granded, I have no idea what actually fixed the issue, so I don’t know who to fully credit but thanks for helping.

Ok, so a lot of them are old messages, none of the messages from this session are labeled as busy. I did just try logging out and back in and that was pretty much instantaneous, so whatever it was that caused my computer to boot slowly just effect the boot itself. But yeah, I tried restarting pipewire and everything related to it and it’s still just showing the dummy output device and audio isn’t working. Thanks for trying though.

Ok well, pipewire is what’s pre-installed and as of now neither pipewire nor pulseaudio are working. I have already uninstalled pulseaudio, as I would like to just use what’s preinstalled if I can get it working again.
