Yeah I saw the takahē in Zealandia and one other zoo. Would have been cool to see in the wild if possible in the preservation areas the have.

I too saw a kea in the wild near the Milford Sound! Sadly I didn’t see any of the others in the wild. The takahē was also in Zealandia.

Probably a Takahē in New Zealand but in captivity.

But out of curiosity what apps didn’t work for you that were deal breakers?

Works for me on Verizon and has for 5+ years. Google Fi even works as I’ve tried that with a different phone on GrapheneOS.

Alright that doesn’t sound that bad. I have a Mi Band 3 and haven’t upgraded to anything else due to the need to get a key with anything newer.

How was the Bangle JS2? What made you switch away from it?

I thought about using Amazfit products but all the new ones require Huami/Xiaomi server pairing. How was that process?

Any reason Fennec and not Mull? Just curious.

Phone app? Yes you have to use their own app. On a computer besides the browser version you can use Thunderbird and other applications if you download ProtonBridge.

Just a preference thing since it makes it more like how Windows and some Linux distros do window management.

Hitting Alt + Tab brings up a preview of all windows that you have open with the ability to scroll / tab through them.

Hitting Alt + ` while focused on a certain application shows a preview image of each window for that application that you have open.

I personally like it more than the OSX default but to each their own.

I’m using it and a Logitech G502 but I haven’t played around to see what things it can and cannot do compared to Logitech’s own software. On Linux I use Piper to manage my mouse with a closer parity to Logitech’s actual software.

No problem! Glad I could help someone. I was so happy when I found it so I’m glad it can help others.

Makes sense haha. Whatever works is good. 🙂

AltTab: Windows alt-tab on macOS

Rectangle: Keyboard based window management.

Linear Mouse: Per-device settings for Mouse, Track Pad, etc. Things like pointer super, scroll direction, and mouse acceleration.

Why not use Rectangle? While Magnet looks like it probably does a lot more and has more customization I’m having a hard time seeing the difference to make it worth that price vs. free. Can you explain your thoughts? 🙂

Shelves in a closet, happy thought indeed.

That’s all I use and it’s been great!

Now that Steam is all in on the Steam Deck and SteamOS there is much better support for games on Linux. See ProtonDB.

Also, the Linux distro Pop!_OS has worked quite well for me for games. I use the NVIDIA version which bundles NVIDIA’s propietary library blobs which also helps with the game compatibility.

But all in all I agree with you that even with all of this it is not as smooth as just click and play on Windows. 🙂 Plus some games just don’t work on Linux at all so there’s that. Lol.

Species from 1995. Parents and their friends were watching it and told us to not come in because it was too scary.

I thought they were bullshitting young me…I was wrong. Lol. Had wonderful nightmares for a while.
