Window -> Mint -> Mint Debian -> Arch -> NixOS (not complete yet)

I am incredibly happy with NixOS, I love having my entire OS and software configuration in a GIT repo, commits and comments included.

Dan Abnett. Eisenhorn, Gaunt, and Bequin. I understand that the setting doesn't necessarily appeal to everyone, but the way he writes prose is beautiful in my opinion. And he writes excellent characters.

25k-30k in Augsburg today!

I really liked https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGVXJ-TIv3Y - step by step, with examples and great explanations. Warning: it's long, but I watched it in one session.

Actually that is exactly what I'm looking to do for my upcoming home server - configure and define everything via NixOS so that I can almost instantly reprovision it should I have to (restore from backup on hardware issues, recover from borked software upgrades, etc).

Setting up solid backups is important to me, so I plan to bake the full setup into the configuration. That allows me to test everything in a VM first and then apply it all with a simple GIT fetch and rebuild once I commit to hardware.

It's aspirational so far, but the more I read the more sense it makes to me. My own desktop won't be far behind if all of that works...

Dragon Age, the original first one. Definitely no really happy endings there...

And I liked the second book the most, now we have all three books covered in these comments.

First one was okay, third one just went off the rails for me. Interesting, but the story failed to continue to engage me.

Agree on the adaption though, especially given the recent record of bad ones.

I'm playing A Plague Tale: Innocence for the first time – really enjoying the medieval flair and great graphics, though it is definitely a linear game (not my usual cup of tea, but exceptions obviously apply).

I'll be playing Baldur's Gate 3 as soon as my COOP friends have time for it... it is installed and ready to go! Very much looking forward to this.

All of them running great on Linux too, which is just amazing.

Wheel of Time would be amazing, unlike the show.

It only works for Germany I believe, but the best app (both for the actual forecasts and the nice widget) is the Deutsche Wetterdienst app - though thanks to legal shenanigans you have to pay a euro for it.

Endless Sky was surprisingly addictive to me, it really scratched the exploration itch. Sadly I played through most content at some point, so now I'm waiting for there to be enough new stuff for me to play again. I really enjoyed it, including the stories and lore and universe!
