  • Discovering GNOME extensions may have been a mistake.

  • This was a mild pain. I couldn't figure out what was wrong, then I realized that the browser extension and tool worked flawlessly in Firefox, but not Brave.

  • I did install that one, and it's pretty fun. You can even change the color of the fire and the speed of the animation.

  • There are so many options! I have it on the original fire one (with the animation sped up), but I'm considering switching to the DOOM inspired one.

  • I'm sure I'll get there, but it's all new to me right now, so the temptation to add a bunch of nonsense is real...

  • How my other devices that haven't had Linux installed yet are looking at me...

    Jump

  • Well, there a desktop PC, a laptop, and possibly an old Chromebook that I'm considering...

  • Whoa, this sounds like a really cool project. I think I would enjoy doing this. Thank you for telling me about it.

  • That sounds cool. So, could you add additional old hardware to this "pool" to use as needed? Just, like cobbled together resources to run stuff?

    This might be a little advanced for me at the moment.

  • Haven't heard of it before. Is it a distro?

  • My friend has been having a lot of issues with Windows lately [Rule]

  • Fitting that it's being offered by The Penguin himself.

    Hmm, I may edit this gif for a meme post.

  • Amazing. There's a level of stubborn ingenuity that I can appreciate.

  • It's too far from the router right now, but I have some options.

    I needed to have the new adapter plugged in to use a tool from the manufacturer that is supposed to detect your adapter and install the most up to date driver for you, but of course you have to be online, so I was using the old semi-broken adapter and had both plugged in and connected to my router at the same time.

    It seems jank, but it made me wonder what would happen if I just left both connected forever. Would it stay seamlessly connected as long as they both don't drop at the same time? Lol

  • This is my jam. I really enjoy having a steep hill to climb.

  • If I catch the new one doing it, this is going to be the first thing I try. Thanks

  • Well, the PC is far from the router, but someone mentioned setting up a WiFi extender that has an ethernet port, and that doesn't sound like too bad of an idea.
