  • I started using Linux as my only OS when I was like 15 or so, at the time largely playing Runescape or EVE Online.

    Still feel nostalgia for runescape sometimes but then remember the grind, no thanks. EVE is similar too, remember the great times in a fleet but if I go back I then am reminded of all the dull times when not much is happening and I find PvE is so fucking boring in EVE. Even a few things that are fun for half an hour are painfully tedious after 4, and sometimes there isn’t even a fleet forming up that day. Albion online I find a similar issue with. I don’t really care about solo PvP either.

    Can’t really say Linux has shaped what I play that much as I have pretty much always been using it since I was making choices of what game to play beyond being limited to the games my dad had bought CDs for.









  • Not had much luck fishing, though I tried a hand line rather than a pole and it was from a kayak. Started feeling seasick which surprised me as I have kayaked loads on the sea before just fine.

    Have had a bit more luck with crabs from a pier or quay. Probably could do that from a kayak too if it’s nets that you just drop and leave for a little while. I think the seasickness was due to looking down a lot at my equipmemt while not moving in the waves. Shorter periods might not be so bad as you can move on to the next net again pretty quickly rather than sitting still the whole time.






  • What counts as a big garden, I would like bigger but my bungalow is on a 150m² total property area, 60m² of that is the indoor area. Spent quite a bit to have the concrete paved across the entire garden removed and I did all the labour myself with a sledgehammer. IIRC it was 8m³ of that crap.

    Now mine is the only house on the street that you can see real bees at. My “lawn is untidy”? Fuck off, that is a meadow and it is glorious! As I am British there is no HOA for you to cry to. I am free to make the bees happy.

    Unless it gets to the point I am blocking out the sun to the houses nearby there is fuck all anyone can do about my garden.
