  • Wanted to fully experience life!

    Grew up gaming. Stopped gaming for twenty years. Now I game again. I’ve had a great time. Climbed mountains. Traveled. All manner of relationships. Built a nice career. Now I find I can enjoy games without that, I’m wasting my life feeling.

    All humans “waste” time. It’s odd to say reading is better than games. Or movies are better than TV. They’re all just mediums to convey stories. And really, there aren’t many original stories, just the same ones told over and over in different ways.

    At least with games, you are actively participating rather than passively consuming. And yes I do read lots of complicated books, and watch fine cinema, and great television.

    But I also garden, birding, botany, camp, etc.

    I can confirm and I do use this feature of jellyfin. It works great. The reader is unusable. I use Librera for reading. It’s great, free, and open source.

    So my flow is biblio, mam, library Genesis, Anna’s. Then to jellyfin folder that it reads automatically. Then I can download that to any device connected to the jellyfin server. Local is easy, abroad through tailscale.









  • I had a beelink ser5, and without giving you the bench marks, I can tell you that many games that were unplayable on cinnamon or kde, did work in openbox. I would log out and back into that DE just to play games.

    Just my observation. I have upgraded my PC so I haven’t needed to repeat that with my new one.
