I was curious how the activity stats on the sidebar are calculated. I was looking through the GitHub, but I'm not familiar with Rust, so I was having trouble parsing everything.

Would anyone be able to point me to the relevant section on github?

My partner is interested in learning some of the games I play, so I'm trying to find some introductory games to get her used to the common control schemes.

Off the top of my head, it'd probably have to be games that...

• Have few inputs beyond the basics
• Are not difficult or punishing
• Are approachable mechanically (So as not to overwhelm them when they're focus on learning basic controls)
• 2D is probably preferable, since its easier to understand and process whats happening at a glance.
• Multiplayer would probably also be a strong bonus, but also not required

The only game that particularly comes to mind is Portal, but hopefully others will have some better ideas.

Egg interceptions up 116% so far this year, while seizures of fentanyl down 32%

I'm trying to find a decent wireless headset for day-to-day use. It'd be for a lot of teleconferencing as well as some gaming, music, and other normal stuff. In particular, I'm looking for a pair of over-ears, since wearing on-ears or in-ears for longer periods is uncomfortable (esspecially with glasses), want something with a fold-up or removeable microphone to prevent damage, and have a pretty limited budget: $200CAD, equivalent to about $100USD.

My standards aren't that high for general quality, but I wasn't finding much that met my criteria. As-is I was debating between the Logitech Vibe 100 (Seemed like it was decent all-around, and it comes in white or pink, which is a bonus) or the Corsair Void RGB Elite (mainly for the large ear cups). I know both these options are pretty gamer-y, which is usually bad, and the Corsair headset is ancient, but I haven't really found anything that looks better. Does anyone have any better options?

Edit: The Logitech G733 also looks promising.

I'm trying to find mechanical keyboards that are not black/grey, are standard or TKL, and are hotswappable. I have yet to find a site that allows you to sort by all three chritiria, nonetheless sort though multiple brands/sites. Has anyone made a site along these lines?

Edit: like what pcpartpicker offers for most other computer parts

Edit 2: Keeb-finder is what I was looking for. Its support for non-American stuff isn't great, but its better than nothing.

Was hoping to do a little bit of advertising on other platforms. Anyone have any good, "intro to the fediverse" type infographics. For example, graphics that explain breifly what it is and how to join, or recommend a few good starting instances.

Yes, I know DRM-free means you can still physically play the games. Thats not what I'm asking.

Sparked by a recent discussion about DRM, I'm wondering what happens legally when different game stores close. For example, if Steam shuts down, are licences presumed to presist or are they revoked? What about GOG, Itch.io or Epic? I couldn't find anything in the terms of service specifying.

I'm looking to buy a decent keyboard - nothing ridiculous as I'm not a keyboard enthusiast, but decent enough for regular use. In particular, I'm looking for something...

• tkl or full size, nothing with a non-standard arrow key layout
• Pink or pink and white (or white but cheap enough I can buy keycaps with it)
• Quieter switches and shorter travel are perfered, but not a deal breaker
• Available in Canada

Currently I'm mostly looking at the Razer BlackWidow V3 for $122 CAD. I'm not exactly a Razor fan, but the only competitve option I found was the Ducky One 3 TKL for $171 CAD. I'm sure the quality is better, and the hotswappable switches are very nice, but it lacks the backlight and the media controls while being $50 more expensive.

Is there a better option I'm missing, or a good reason to pick one or the other?

I know this is a bit more tech-support oriented, but I was hoping someone might have first or second hand experience fixing this, given what a nightmare it is to research and test.

I'm using a semi-recent Samsung phone, running their skin of Android 14. Currently, I'm using PIA as my vpn (yes, I know I should switch) through the OpenVPN app. I also experience this issue through PIA's app leading me to think its an Android issue. I also leave both the "Always-on VPN" and "Block Connections without a VPN" enabled.

I've tried to do some research, but everything that I find is search engines directing to basic stuff like how to connect to wifi

Edit: I'm currently testing the memory management tweak, and Ill probably try wireguard next.

Edit 2: In case anyone ends up here from Google, I've swapped VPNand tried removing all restrictions on memory and battery usage with no luck. I have also found a bunch of people complaining about similar issues with other Samsung devices, so it may be related. For example, this threat from Reddit, with all the responses removed: https://old.reddit.com/r/nordvpn/comments/t8t1hf/connectivity_issues_with_new_phone_android/

Basically any word or short phrase I can think of to mean "a lot of muscle" also implies skinny or almost no fat. Fit, or lithe bring to mind more a track athlete's body, and buff, ripped, jacked, muscular, ect. generally are though of more like a body builder. The closest thing I can think of is dad-bod but thats obviously still pretty far off as well as being male-specific. Is there even an English word for this?
