Go-On-A-Steam-Train

Thank you, that’s really kind. All the more reason to enjoy that time! :)

It’s been a few years, and the way you described your dog made me smile more than anything :)

Aw I miss my dog! I used to say he’d walk into a room and think “Hi everyone! I’m a dog! Someone should play with me I think this would be good!”

I bet there’s a bunch of quality of life things I take for granted on android! I think you’re right about the search :)

Windows Phone’s UI is a hill I will die on, it was really nice! I actively missed it for a while when switching.

Oh fantastic! :) Thank you, next playthrough I will get things going on Linux in that case, as that’s new to me! :) Like a fool I tried nexus mods vortex in Wine initially because I didn’t know better!

I can second this! For me it meant that I could finish my game of modded fallout new vegas, and connect to my work’s microsoft vpn nonsense (IT support didn’t fancy trying it on Mint but that’s another story!)

I now have a personal OS that I like, and a windows partition for those few things that I can’t be bothered to troubleshoot.

So far the list is just those things and the Unity Engine as Visual Studio debugs better than code in my experience. :)

Having the option to flick back is great :) In the XP days, I loved the WUBI(?) tool that let you install ubuntu dual boot as an exe, but I think that’s not a thing these days., :)

Heck yes! Earthbound! One of those games I felt was made perfectly to my taste :) funny, quirky, slightly uncomfortable… All great. :)

Darn it, I popped into this thread to suggest Thumb-Key, and was beaten to it by the maker of the keyboard!

Thank you for making my phone usage much faster and enjoyable (written using Thumb-Key of course!) :)

hehe I read the last words a “snot much” and did a double take :)

Signed the guestbook :)

I think it could do with a very literal under construction image, with some sort of machinery- every website seemed under construction at the time!

Can’t you even skip one of those goals? What a great game 😁 It really does let you work it out, but not in an annoying puzzley way

To top up the happy tank, I love playing

• Katamari games
• OpenRA (Red Alert)
• Wrestling games (Smackdown on PS1/2)
• OpenRCT (Rollercoaster Tycoon)
• Baldurs Gate 3
• Mass Effect
• Frog Detective 1, 2, 3
• Game Dev Tycoon

I went and played Fallout 1 because I loved 3 so much… It took a few false starts (1 intelligence was a terrible call for a first playthrough lol, it ended bad)

Now I see it, 1 and 2 were so brilliant with the role playing and story that I can’t go back to 3! 😊 So many choices, strong characters, just brilliant.

That’s bizarre! Glad it’s working, but what the Dickens made it behave so strangely? I imagine it wouldn’t be anything nefarious, especially since its only fdroid, but… Damn that’s odd!

Glad it solved itself at last :)

Curses! That’s incredibly strange

I don’t know if this useful, but the link works in the UK… I would be interested to hear if you have any luck with it, sorry I can’t be any use beyond this.

I had the thought of trying a VPN set to other countries if you can, or different DNS settings, but I imagine you already thought of it but can’t think of much else.

Best of luck with it :)

Thank you for sharing this! I have enjoyed thumbkey for a long while, but it’s lovely being back on qwerty to try this out :) at minimum it means I have a keyboard to offer when other people use my phone! :)

Yay! There are dozens of us! A cheap trackball is one of the best things I have ever bought. No pain, and it is really accurate.

I did have a regular mouse in my pc too so that other people could use my pc without complaining, but donated it to one of the new people at work. But happy, nice mouse makes the day better.

Thank you for mentioning /e/os, this is the first I’ve heard of it and it looks like a nice open source os without making using it a chore! 😁

I might give it a go over the weekend once I’ve backed up everything. 😊

Lil Server Issue sadly is my name! Https being silly I should think 😁
