Mattermost is a lot like Slack, right?

I’m definitely checking this out. I’ve been on the Audiobookshelf beta for a while and it’s not bad, but I want CarPlay support. And I really love this UI. It reminds me of that third-party Plex tie-in for audiobooks that did this same thing, Prologue.
Browbeating people into voting is not helpful.
I’m trying to get back into Elden Ring, but I forgot how late I was into the game when I stopped playing last time, so I’m getting my ass handed to me. But the DLC trailer got my hyped to play again, and I never finished my first playthrough, so I have to beat the game. I am also working on Animal Crossing: New Leaf on my 3DS. No idea what I’m doing, but I’ll take the challenge.
I may also load up Tears of the Kingdom on my Steam Deck if I feel so inclined this week.
It never stops. Distro hopping is an addiction for me.
I have mine set to when I feed my cats, so I’m already in my kitchen anyway.
Apple Health’s reminders have been a godsend, especially the annoying as fuck alert if you don’t log your medication within half an hour of your scheduled time. I never found pill organizers helpful, but I hope this one works for you.
I was drinking too much and noticed it was impacting my heart, so I decided to cut back. It’s a rough process.
Medication, proper sleep, strict routine, writing things down in my pocket notebook as I think of them. I’m trying to incorporate exercise, as well, but that’s a slow and arduous process that’s not going so well. I’ve lowered my caffeine intake.
Good to know! I should have clarified in my comment, I think the language they used the last time I checked was basically something like, “We no longer guarantee that we’ll support these devices once they go EOL from Google.” I don’t recall anything about extended support, so that’s awesome!
I ran GrapheneOS (and CalyxOS) on a Pixel 5 for a while and quite liked the experience. It’s remarkably polished and get’s the job done quite well for the most part, with some caveats like you mentioned. The biggest bummer is when Google EOLs the devices, so the Graphene team also has to (last I checked). So, I installed /e/OS on my P5 and stuck it in a drawer.
The ROM has come a long way in recent years, and I’m glad that Android Auto works now. (Now that I have a car that has AA/CarPlay functionality!) Good on you for making the plunge and I hope it continues to work out well for you. I am not surprised that your NFC car key doesn’t work, based on what I know about the trusted key system on Android when Google announced it not too long ago. That may be hard to find a workaround for, but I am not a developer by any means, so who knows!
I need to do more stuff like this with my house, but I lack the creativity.
I could go for this. Netflix has had some good animated video game adaptations, like Edgerunners and Arcane. Plus, what I saw of Castlevania was awesome. But, it is Netflix, so who the hell knows.
Well, Drop was already meh for keyboard stuff anyway and with Corsair involved, I’m less interested.
Yep, this is basically my plan once I finish my server.
If you’re on iOS and/or Mac, my go-to RSS reader is NetNewsWire.
Well, fwiw, you can use the Pencil on a Mini. First-gen on a Mini 5 (my setup) or second-gen on a Mini 6.
I take notes, journal, and draw on my Mini 5, but I don’t know if I’d use it for school. The portability, however, is amazing. Fits in my satchel without the need for a full backpack. So I’d lean toward the Mini were I in your shoes.
Definitely a NUC or similar mini PC from the likes of Geekom, Beelink, or Minisforum. My whole homelab was mini PCs until I consolidated to a NUC 12 Pro as I build up my rack. Slap Proxmox on the machine, build some VMs and LXCs, and have at it.
It’s a bummer you say that Pomodoro timers don’t work for you. I work in technical writing, and the Pomodoro system is ideal for keeping me on track, even when I’m testing a system (which bores me to death, let alone writing the documentation for it). Knowing that I have a short break after the end of a sprint’s worth of work keeps me motivated… when I remember to use the Pomodoro apps on my phone and Mac.
I set up a great system in Apple Reminders for my to-dos and lists. It’s a powerful tool if you use Apple products, more than just mere reminders.
Are you medicated? That helped me a ton in more ways than I can count. But I’ve never tried body doubling, since I’ve worked solo from home for the last seven years. Background noise is also helpful to me, such as Reddit videos in the background (especially r/NiceGuys compilations). Music, too. Podcasts and audiobooks less so because I become more focused on listening than being productive.
I run Fedora on my gaming PC (KDE) and my ThinkPad (GNOME/Hyprland). It’s a rock-solid distro. Some may think the release cycle is too fast, but then just don’t upgrade right away.
Distrohopping is an addiction for me. As soon as I get settled, I’m ready to bounce. I want my gaming PC to stay where it is, but I might hop my ThinkPad around. Maybe. Fedora on it is fantastic.
