In case you only want to search partial titles to find multiple movies

Ex: Spider-Man .mkv

   Ernest .mkv

Or because show titles will usually have episode titles after them

… I guess it’s not a requirement

Search soulseek with a “ .mkv” at the end (note the space)

You pretty much said what I would’ve said, but probably better :)

I have 3 Macs I want to switch to Linux, so I’m approaching this conversion piece by piece, using my thinkpads as placeholders. Figuring out new cloud software can wait until they’re all switched.

Cool I’ll check this out

A web app for the calendar could be handy… but I could just use another calendar app…

This sounds like a good solution. Can I set it to sync when I’m off my home network?

Ah ok, thanks

I suppose the biggest thing I’m looking for a solution for is photos.

I have my phone to set up to sync to iCloud, which then automatically download to my desktop, which is then automatically backs up via Time Machine.

How could I transition this behaviour to Linux keeping in mind I’ll be using an iPhone for at least another 3 years?

Now that’s interesting

I don’t even know what an allophone is

I don’t disagree. I’ve been saying it since like… 2005. Seeing the CBC use it feels weird though. 🤷‍♂️

Doable is a real word now?

I bet Hawkin’s has been hiring since the US boycott started. Everyone I know is basically replacing their chips with Hawkin’s cheezies.

Where do freelancers fit in these stats?

I’m sometimes over-employed and sometimes pretty damn near unemployed. 🤷‍♂️

Yup, and I set up a Jellyfin server.

I started it before all the Trump stuff and was using it for stuff that couldn’t be found on streaming services, but since Trump decided to threaten Canada those are all cancelled and it’s a full-on pirate’s life for me.

Oh, Sheer is back, but using little pp’s playbook now.

I mean, we have the Bloc Québécois, which I thank Quebec for because from my POV, we would already be there if it weren’t for the stubbornness of Quebeckers

There’s a Warcraft mobile game?

Nevermind, I don’t care.

Nice.

So last week my boss gave me 4 older laptops and I was looking for games that would work on Thinkpad T420s with Mint.

I got Myth II running on those 4 Linux machines and 2 Macs. I have 3 friends to LAN party it with.

Check out Project Magma.

They’ve been doing the work for decades now to keep the game alive. You need a “disc” to install (available on myabandonware.com), but they have installers that do all the heavy lifting of getting it to work on modern machines.

Then the two must-have plug-ins are Twice Born Edition, which gives you upscaled graphics and The Fallen Lords: Deluxe Edition, which gives you the Myth:TFL campaign in Myth II: Soulblighter. I also installed about 80 co-op/solo scenario plug-ins to play too, but you don’t have to unless you want to. Siege of Belial and The Long Journey series look pretty fun but haven’t tried them yet.

I fucking loved Myth as a kid and I am absolutely stoked that I can play it again.

I’ll trade you this cow for 3
