Ah yeah it would be nice if it were open source. Retro is pretty good, I remember having stability issues with it when I used it a couple years ago, but if those got ironed out that's awesome.

Oto Music (Play Store link) has been my mp3/offline music player of choice for years now. Stable, pretty, performant, and has tag editing features built in. Still gets updates at least once or twice a year, which is all ya really need for an offline player.
Megalodon (Play Store link) is my Mastodon client of choice, tons of little ease-of-use improvements over the official client. Some people might already be familiar with this if they're on Lemmy, but maybe someone looking for a better Masto client will get something from this.
Holy shit how have I not heard of that plugin yet, that's awesome. Yet another point in Obsidian's favor, at least for me
Oh yeah, absolutely. It must be exhausting to constantly aim for massive profits rather than simply aiming for a little above breaking even. But hey, we've got investors to feed!
See that's the cool part, they can't even sustainably pay video creators via ad revenue 🤠👍
If there's anything I've learned from the past 10 years on the internet, it's that a purely ad-supported business model doesn't work. We've gotten to a point where a significant amount of consumers use adblockers (or are just less responsive to ads/rarely click through to the advertiser), and tech companies are trying to counteract this by raising subscription prices for paying customers and trying to find ways to maximize ad views (see: YouTube testing blocking people viewing the site with an adblocker, smart TVs with software closed-off enough that the average person can't easily block ads, etc.)
At the end of the day, this is ad companies being as stingy as possible to ensure their profits don't keep dropping. To me, I just think that betting on a world fueled by ads and data collection was a mistake, and we're finally starting to see how it's even hurting the companies trying to profit off that choice.
I second this, it's great if you care about a modern interface that feels in line with other Android apps these days. Pretty darn slick app with a lot of nice customization features
I wonder if he sees the irony in what his Behavior is doing to the Organization of students he's teaching :\ For real though, nothing takes the joy out of learning quite like a teacher treating you younger than you are. I hope that class goes by as quick as possible
Yeah, fair point, I think this thing still has USB 2.0, so maybe a spinner is the way to go. Someone reminded me that USB drive caddies exist, so I think I'll go with that and a hard disk, just to make it more flexible should I ever need to use the drive in another machine or replace it. Thanks for the help!
Ah right it seems I made the assumption that Network Attached Storage meant any storage attached to my networked device haha, thanks for the clarification. I like this idea, forgot about the option of USB drive caddies. Thank you!
Oh yeah definitely, after that mess I don't feel comfortable getting anything more than little flash drives from them. Thanks for the idea!
This depends on if you installed Steam as a Flatpak or through the endeavourOS repositories, but one way that should work is editing the Exec line in the .desktop file. You've already tried that, but I don't know what you put there so it might be worth editing that line again. Try editing the Exec line to Exec=GDK_SCALE=2 /usr/bin/steam %U and let us know what happens.
To be fair, if you're referring to the "alleged" backdoors in Intel processes, there's pretty similar stuff going on in the AMD side too. That said, I still totally get not wanting to support Intel since they're definitely the shadiest of the two, and they've been awful value these days.
The Framework 13 AMD is pretty great though, can confirm. It's all I've ever wanted in a decent, repairable laptop.
