Bottles was having the same issue. I was attempting to install SimTower off the CD copy I have and they all were having issues running. I believe it’s a permissions issue that I could figure out, but not sure. After spending hours i went down the distro route and it worked perfectly the first time. Was able to run the installation for the game and launch it from wine.

I got them on Amazon, the only place I could find them as well. However, I didn’t search as hard as you I think.

What Linux distro are you using? I’m on Aurora and wine doesn’t really work unless you install it from the distrobox.

I have a really hard time getting Aurora working the way all my other Linux devices so that are running some form of Ubuntu (Mate or Bodhi). With that said, it’s been very stable and i like not being interrupted with packages to install while working on things…

Mixed bag review. I give it 3.5 out of 5 stars.

With Aurora, I was unable to get winehq working without installing it from a distrobox instead. I can now play SimTower on my Linux PC.

I picked Toshiba drives personally. However, I know of a bunch of WD reds running for years with no issues.

I think since the nas cases aren’t insolated for sound, your going to hear them moving that head around…

Have you considered an ssd populated nas? It does cost more however :(

This cold make me go back to moto. I’m only on pixel for the android updates.

What are these cables for when all new displays that support it will have builtin app that everyone is going to use to watch streaming services with. The last time I have seen an external streamer used was for someone with an older TV where the builtin apps are no longer updated.

I get the need for eARC usage, but that’s already implemented… So…?

I avoided transcoding by making sure to only host videos compatible with all clients. Also, I will spend the time to reencode codes that are too large for my taste. Which happens after a rip of uhd disks.

H265 with slow preset really works wonders for non-grainy film. AV1 is what you have to use when there is grain.

Tailscale is what I do. If you make an exit nice they can forever stay on your VPN… I think…

Yes, I have run wires to a few rooms, but not everywhere and it can be difficult to convince myself to continue down this path. However, it is the more affordable option.

You mean run wires?

While not really for my hosting, I want to upgrade the Wi-Fi speeds in my home, currently running an eero setup that provides good coverage, but the speed seems poor when transferring large files around the home.

Not sure what to get, but this is my goal.

I want my laundry machine to figure out the best way to wash whatever I toss in automatically without an Internet connection. I guess I’m asking for too much :(

Does the new movie still have the scene where they wash the dwarfs clean? That could interesting to see. …

They will then ask for a third term.

I blame the streaming boom and then password sharing crackdowns.

Yes, you can get a replacement power supply.

That’s how you can draw basic things on the c64. It’s showing the alternative symbols for the key.
