Far Cry: Blood Dragon tought me you can use them to distract your enemies.

The future is already here. It’s just unevenly distributed.

Speak for yourself.

KurtJMac started Far Lands or Bust in 2011, and reached 9.9 million blocks earlier this month.

And with it delete Matt Mulholland’s beautiful rendition on the recorder? I think not!

That sounds pretty much like what Dirvish and rsnapshot do. Both wrap rsync.

Does your FS support online resizing?

Yeah. I mainly use btrfs; it supports online growing and shrinking.

Be super careful about partition sizes. […]

I know. I have done plenty of same device partition resizing. I know the pit falls, and for safety shrink the FS to below what the LV is going to be.

Have backups.

Thanks for the reminder. I’ve been meaning to set up snapshot backups for this machine using rsnapshot as an experiment. I mainly use Dirvish

Nah, it’ll be fine.

I might have a large enough USB SSD laying around some where. I could probably use that instead.

• extend VG with the USB PV
• move LV’s to USB
• shrink root LV
• resize boot
• move things back on a new internal PV

That’s not even a bad idea then.

One of my machines has a boot partition that’s a bit too small, on an otherwise LVM setup.

Good grief. Why?

I think you mean HeRNGmes

But yeah Hades is a good game. Got it in the latest Steam Summer Sale. it’s my current couch / big screen Deck game.

My current desktop game is still Just Cause 2.

Yeah, I probably should have clarified that a bit more.

Stick Fight is an online multiplayer brawler. Think Smash Bros, but with super short rounds. Rounds lasting longer than 15 seconds are the exception.

So it’s a nice game to play while waiting for your other online gaming buddies arrive.

Stick Fight: The Game is super cheap, and a nice warming up game.

If you really rely on faster movement than what gyro+classic joystick provides: try gyro+flickstick.

Flickstick does require some game specific tweaking. But it’s the only controller input method my “30 years of playing fps on PC”-riddled brain accepts.

• Single player (desktop): After finishing Red Faction Guerrilla, and trying Red Faction Armageddon but not really liking it, I settled on Just Cause 2 (again). Still as much fun as in 2013, when I last played it.
• Single player (Deck): more Deep Rock Galactic:Survivor.
• Co-op (desktop): Deep Rock Galactic, if my co-op buddies don’t bail, that is.

jdupes is my go-to solution for file deduplication. It should be able to remove duplicate files. I don’t know how much control it gives you over which duplicate to remove though.

I started Red Faction Guerrilla (Steam Edition) a couple of weeks ago. Solid game from 2009. Though the game world does feel a bit empty.

1. Every scene with Bub in the original Day of the Dead
2. Also in DotD: the kill scene near the end where someone’s head is being torn off while screaming, and their pitch is going higher and higher.

I think the only TK-based tools I have ever uses are gitk and git gui. And even those I have mostly replaced with tig and lazygit

• The Outer Worlds - Had this in my library for a while. Coming from the Borderlands franchise, I tried BG3, and accept that it’s a good game. It just doesn’t click for me at the moment. TOW is a nice mix of RPG and FPS.
• Deep Rock Galactic - Is my current “co-op with buddies” game.
• Vampire Survivors - 'nuff said, I guess
• Maniac - Vampire Survivors meets classic 2D GTA. Imagine the GTA Kill Frenzy thing, but that’s the whole game.
