  • People from the "hotter" regions, how do you deal with the heat?
  • CodeCheper CodeCheper 1y ago 100%

    We had a cold front move through yesterday....dropped it about a degree. haha.

    I LOVE thunderstorms at night! If one passes during the day, it just makes it 10x more humid .

  • CodeCheper CodeCheper 1y ago 100%

    I need AC for about 6 months out of the year (used to be three, maybe three and half) here in the east/south US. The humidity is so bad it makes 90F seem like 110F and even the shade won't cool you down and it drops very little when the sun goes down.

    I'm replying because my electrical panel is being replaced right now and I have no power (the router is on a batt backup)...it heated up in here and I'm able to psychologically deal with it for now....if the installation goes south and I'll be without power for more than a few hours I'll take the cat and head to my sister's place :)

  • Tiger and a T34. I later made a diorama with the Tiger wrecked and the T34 looking like a champ next to it. No pics of that though, my son was a teenager a pre-teen at the time and decided to destroy it /

    I'm re watching the MCU chronologically. I'm up to Black Widow but I'm not sure I want to watch it (missed it on release).

    I love the character, but not sure if she's worth an entire movie.

  • How did you learn linux?
  • CodeCheper CodeCheper 1y ago 100%

    I've dabbled since the late 90s but didn't switch completely until about 2019. I mainly learned on Mandrake and Ubuntu but Arch made me learn so much more.

    Now I have two of them, a daily driver and a plex server. The only thing I use my windows machine for is gaming and editing.

    Arch will force you to learn and it's loads of fun!

  • I'm mainly into Gary Grigsby these days, is anyone else playing any of his titles? I'm looking for an opponent for a possible PBEM game of War in the West playing either side. If anyone is interested I'd be down. I upload/air PBEMS usually two or three days after turn completion and discourage spoilers from viewers. I just started my first one and it brought out the FUN for me. War in the West a great game, but the air system is so much different than War in the East and I'll need some time to tinker and learn it. If you have a game you like and want to play by email (I can't do real time...my schedule changes frequently) let me know the title and premise and I can make an attempt to learn it. I mainly like operation games, not good with 4K stuff and always lose at tactical lol. OT: I'm planning a real-time War in the Pacific starting in December (well, planning...I planned to start last year and the game is immense and the set up for turn 1 can take over a month). If anyone has played this before, I may hit you up for tips haha.

    For some reason, it's not letting me reply to you Fidel, but it's Gary Grigsby's War in the East 2. A monster of a game, my last full campaign took 14 months. I'm currently in a PBEM as the Soviet's now, just finished turn 5 of 215 lol. I'm[ youtubing](https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMTzh4XXzbJfmINyTROkJ6v4Eqq9ja17f) it if you want to check it out.

    How are you going to avoid using reddit?
  • CodeCheper CodeCheper 1y ago 100%

    I might just dump it altogether, I only lurk anyway and the communities I subscribe to are mainly for humor. I haven't checked it in several days now.

  • Can you follow your own profile through mastodon
  • CodeCheper CodeCheper 1y ago 100%

    I have a separate account for Lemmy, mastodon and pixelfed. I kinda like it that way for now, and I don't want to have to create an all encompassing account and lose all of my connections across instances.

    Unless someone comes up in an easy way to do that.

  • I'm currently locked in a PBEM struggle on War in the East 2 (It's playing out on YouTube if you want the link!) Started a West German campaign in Flashpoint Campaigns. Defending in a War in the West campaign. Failing badly at Decisive Campaigns: Barbarossa ...and playing a casual Wildermyth game (not a war game, but meh) What are you folks into these days?
