A couple of video game specific communities I'm subscribed to that I don't see here already:

The bitwarden clients themselves do keep a cached version of the database every time there is a successful sync to the server, so if you were to take the server offline you could still view / export the data thankfully! You cannot make changes to the database according to that page and my own experience, though others have reported that they are able to. Additionally, it looks like this cache does expire (30 days on desktop, 90 on mobile).

Just make sure to not log out completely (this is not the same as locking the vault, which is fine), this wipes the cache immediately.

Oh man, I worked at a call center for a little over four years doing internet technical support... Never again.

I am thankful for those that can push through it (especially on the more direct customer service side of things), as I certainly don't have the cognitive fortitude for it.

One of my roles at my current job still involves a lot of support, but at least its not over the phones thankfully.

It's pretty rare that I use wired headphones, I prefer them wireless.

I'm told that wired headphones have higher range audio support, but it's not like the music I stream from Spotify would support that anyways...

This is the stated reason why Microsoft uses their proprietary wireless standard for Xbox controllers (which have Bluetooth, but not for the Xbox console itself) and headsets - but I haven't had latency issues using bluetooth headphones on my PC.

Now, I know that in a lot of cases, Bluetooth doesn't have the bandwidth necessary to do high quality bidrectional audio - so it can't receive and send audio (microphone) without falling back to a very low quality profile, which results in cruddy audio. Not sure if this is an issue that has been fixed though. If not, I can't imagine anyone would want to game and participate in voice chat using that as it sounds horrible.

There is a "Your movies & TV" section which points to the store though they should probably rename it to just "Movies & TV" like it is on mobile (which is definitely obnoxious to find on there, you have to click the compass icon).

You can't access your purchases on a brand account because those are not technically the same as your Google account after the fiasco from Google attempting to merge accounts a long time ago.

Can also confirm, never had an issue with my Stadia controller under Linux. On Windows, I use a tool called reWASD but I don't actually believe you need it for using it wired, just wireless.

Just to note, you don't need to completely switch distros. I'm pretty sure Ubuntu hasn't outright removed X.org, so you can just switch at the login screen with the gear icon at the lower right corner when entering your password.

For some reason I always thought the Android mascot's name was "Andy", but I can't remember where I had heard that from.

I definitely like Andy over bugdroid though...

I don't generally go with the "Oh no, anyways..." comment, but that's truly how I feel about the whole Reddit drama at this point.

They made their bed, and now they have to lie in it. I have zero confidence they'll change, and even on the remote chance they wanted to, its pretty much too late for that.

The screen flickering issue is also sadly not limited to Mint. I was on Fedora over the last few months, and am now on Arch and still get that issue.

Also doesn't seem to be restricted to the DE either, just the driver itself being shitty it appears.

If only we actually lived in the Animal Crossing universe.

(For those unfamiliar, in the game Animal Crossing you can actually "create" money trees that you can harvest from every so often, and how much you get is dependent on how much you initially "invest")
