Started playing Starfield and it really made me want to revisit fallout 4, I’m now deep back into a new play through of Fo4 with 22 hours played in the last 2 weeks. Really enjoying it again.
Anyway, another settlement needs my help….

I ended up recovering some of my music using Google takeout which in turn absolutely wrecked most of the tags on my songs.
That's one for the bookmarks. What an incredible site.
No problems! 😀
When I was on Android I used to love the F-Droid open source repository. Both Newpipe (3rd party YouTube app) and DNS66 (local VPN on device that blocked ads throughout the phone).
I switched to iOS and really missed those applications and needed a solution for my new phone. Those 5 things above (Vinegar, Banish, AdGuard, WireGuard and PiHole) have worked wonders helping me when I switched.
Wouldn’t be without them now.
Edit:
If anyone happens be be on android or still uses Android devices with their Apple things, here are the apps I used to use:
https://f-droid.org/en/
https://f-droid.org/packages/org.jak_linux.dns66/
https://f-droid.org/packages/org.schabi.newpipe/
Both platforms with compelling solutions to block ads and nagging popups.🤝
I know it’s not the latest and greatest but I’m so happy I’ve got a 3090 to play this on. Can not wait.
I’m going to go on a nostalgic trip below.
IMHO, Powerslave/Exhumed was one of the best first person shooters on the 5th generation consoles and the Powerslave engine (Slavedriver) enabled the Saturn to run an amazing port of both Duke Nukem 3d and Quake.
I remember being ecstatic that a game I could only play on a friends PC when I visited back in the day (Duke3d) was not only playable on my Saturn, it was a fantastic port too. DeathTank Zwei was a lovely hidden bonus game included on the D3D port.
Likewise, Quake was an impossible port, bought to a console that traditionally struggled with substandard 3d games vs the psx.
I remember seeing a psx owning buddy play a superb port of Doom on his psx, only for me to be burned by the absolute 💩port that Rage software put out on the Saturn. Even the 32x cartridge version of Doom was batter.
Console shooters have come on in leaps and bounds each generation but Exhumed on the Saturn was a real highlight for me in my younger years.
Pihole on my Debian system with PiVPN WireGuard server.
Safari extensions:
Vinegar to block YouTube ads in Safari. I don’t use the app at all.
Banish to stop websites showing those annoying “open in the app” pop ups.
Ad and nag free bliss.
I use it to access any websites that I want to that Virgin Media block due to court orders issued by the UK high court.
Just set this up on my Unraid server and it's amazing. Great suggestion and thank you.
The ZX Spectrum port was legendary. Couldn't believe I was playing R-Type in my home back when the arcade machines were so far ahead of what home computers could pull off.
Our local pub had a little arcade section for the kids with R-Type as one of the machines and I remember pumping in plenty of 20p coins into it.
Another fond memory is the excitement of getting R-Types on PSX back in the day.
I guess I need to try out this Amstrad port to see how good it is.....

The names of their support agents is truly odd. I’ve seen people post complaints about their support that is little more than this:
Hilariously bad.
