  • I’ve started to use Playnite. It’s nice to have a complete catelog of all my games. Most of my real games (ie ignoring random freebies) are on steam, but I’ve collected a bunch elsewhere like gog, epic, humble bundle, and others. You can give it credentials and set up nearly all the major catelogs so that it can generate a listing of all games you own.

    I use it to mark when I completed a game, but I’ve only had it for a couple years, so I generally go by memory or by steam statistics of hours played.

    Downside is that it’s Windows only. It’s open source and free, and I still have a windows machine for most of my gpu games, but I mainly game on my steam deck or my Linux laptop these days, so I need to find another option or see if Playnite is wine/Proton compatible.







  • I have play protect disabled. It gets annoying that it randomly asks to re-enable every so often, so I created a Tasker automation to dismiss that popup of it detects it. Doesn’t always work, but it’s better than nothing. Super annoying that you can’t tell Google to stop asking already and no, I don’t want play protect.

    I’m testing out grapheneos on another phone, which has all the Google stuff stripped out or sandboxed, so I don’t have to worry about it there.

    So no, play protect hasn’t removed my KDE connect app, but it hasn’t been given the opportunity to try.

    In one row in the top image, there are only two people, but three hands raised. The skin tone and attire of this arm doesn’t match with either of the two people in that row with their hand raised. I’m guessing this was an oversight of the original meme creator for this template.

    I noticed this when someone posted this meme a while back, so I thought I’d try my hand at making my own somewhat meta meme.




  • My wife has an iPhone, but I have an old iPad hooked to her account. I can see where all the air tags are, and locate them or activate the noise function. For traveling, there’s no real benefit to having an iPhone vs an iPad.

    The main bonus that the newer IPhones have is the ability to locate them like a homing device. If you’re within 30 feet, it will actually tell you which direction and how far away it is. Like a compass, it points you towards the air tag, letting you get to within a foot or so to find it. For locating a lost item at home, it’s much easier to use the iPhone.

    But for gps tracking, the basic Bluetooth check in network with apple devices gives you the location of all the devices, within a few meters or so.
