So I really dislike having guns in the home since I have young children. At this point I’m willing to consider it. I don’t have a room for a massive gun safe and nor do I know what gun to get for home defense. What resources are out there to help me find a starting point?

What about the Launch series keyboards?

I use PopOS on my rig which is primarily gaming. It does great and gets out of my way.

The proton client for Linux has improved recently. I use it on PopOS. As to your first point I agree. I landed with Proton specifically because it was cheaper to do it and email rather than separate services.

Identity theft monitoring services always scare me. It seems like you are dumping a huge amount of information into a single system and just hoping the vendor is secure. I have access to one but refuse to put much information in. Is this mindset incorrect?

I thought we found Carmen Sandiego.

Agree with you, but “duty to party” shouldn’t exist and it’s sad that it does.

To have one ready out of the box with linux maybe look at the System76 offerings? https://system76.com/

Edit: just got a chance to check and they are slightly above your $1000 criteria. So maybe on his recommendation.

Pretty sure that the very first gen Google ?dot? Mini speaker has physical disconnect.

Is this actually confirmed anywhere though? I keep seeing it repeated and the only ‘source’ is a ?xeet? .

It’s fairly good. I find the autocorrect to be poor and result in a much lower typing speed though.

This was an absolutely amazing game when I played the original. The art style is not aiming for realism either so those games tend to hold up well. I would highly recommend picking it up.

Edit: Just checked on steam and it looks like they have added Denuvo DRM. Maybe you can find an old version without it?

Pop has been Rock solid for me and steam gaming. Trivial to set up and the store is wonderful too. Nice that it works great for non gaming tasks as well.

Did they ever allow for turning off head bob and blur? That game makes me motion sick to an insane degree.

As a counterpoint, I’m specifically keeping passwords with a separate service out of concern in having a single point of failure for the majority of my online persona. I do pay for proton unlimited but mostly for VPN, simple login, and email.

Saxx solves this (and I think a few other brands) by giving your balls a pouch. Super comfortable and adds the comfort of boxers.

Ubuntu broke with my Nvidia card. I went to PopOS and the problems stopped.

John Deere has a number of manufacturing plants in Iowa…

How has your experience been with the softmaker alternative to excel? Do all the functions translate well? I just took a peak at their site and it looks dramatically better than libreoffice but I’d never heard of it before.

Those are the good providers. If there were another good provider and this is being done with intent than they will just block that domain as well. I use a custom domain with proton, I think that would protect against this but maybe some folks more engaged could chime in before you take that as advice.
