    I’d throw in another vote for Heroic. I tend to use it for pretty much everything that I have that’s not on Steam. It’ll let you choose what version of wine/proton-GE/proton you need to get your games working.

    You can sign into GOG inside the app and have access to your library. Same for Epic Games Store and Prime Gaming, as well as the storefronts (tho the Epic one isn’t working for me rn, but the other two do). After signing in, you go into the library view and then it should list all the games it finds in your store libraries, then you can pick the one you want to download and install. It’ll ask you where you want to install it, and then under ‘Show Wine Settings’ you can pick what version of Wine or Proton you want to use

    I’ve been using Dvorak for maybe like 5 years now. There’s like a 2 or 3 day period whenever you’re learning a new keyboard layout in which you can’t type at all lmao. QWERTY or Dvorak or whatever. Just takes a bit for your brain to adjust.

    The interesting thing is tho, if I sit down at a computer I don’t use every day and start typing, I can type QWERTY no problem, but if I ever have to type QWERTY on my personal computer (lookin at you RDP), its really hard.

    I’ve been meaning to try out a Colemak layout, since it tries to keep a lot of the common computer shortcuts in the same place. (Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V on Dvorak are in kind of an odd place and its a pain if you ever need to use them 1 handed, like if you’re holding a tablet pen)

    I just noticed this on Newegg but when you load the page, it puts a search suggestion of something popular people are searching (today its MH Wilds) in the search bar. I guess the idea is that you can click on it to instantly search for that thing. The problem is, that it takes a beat to load in so by the time you click on the search bar to enter what you wanted, you’ve accidentally clicked the search suggestion and then are taken to those results, instead of being able to enter the thing you wanted to search for int he first place.

    It takes over the right side of the search bar, but depending on the size of the browser window, that could end up taking the majority of the search bar’s free space to click on.

    8BitDo makes some good controllers, and at least I’ve never had any issues with my SN30 Pro+ first gen. Some of the older controllers needed special Windows/Mac software to update their firmware and stuff, but I think newer controllers let you put them in flashing mode, mount them as a USB device, and then just drag and drop firmware into them.

    I also have a Gulikit KK2 that’s been fine. Not a cheap controller, but I’d assume that anything they offer would work too. The Gulikit i’ve used in bluetooth mode on my laptop and it was fine, tho the 8bitdo i pretty much only use in wired mode. The 8BitDo is cool because it has a removable battery, but you also have the option of using AA batteries too, if you wish.

    My TrueNAS setup uses a used Ryzen 3200G and mATX motherboard I got off of ebay for about $100 total. Honestly, any CPU with integrated graphics should be fine, so maybe something like the Intel 8500T, which was specifically a low power SKU could also work. Unless you plan on doing a lot of video transcoding, then you might need something more powerful (or a low end GPU like the Intel Arc A310 or a Radeon 6400 to go with it)

    I’m not so sure how TrueNAS Scale determines how much RAM to allocate for ZFS, but at least with Proxmox, the wiki says you want to have at least 2GiB + (1 GiB/TiB of storage) of RAM to be able to be allocated.

    If you’re looking to use 2TiB of storage, that would be at least 4GiB of RAM dedicated just to ZFS cache, so 8GiB of RAM would probably suit you. You might need to get more RAM in the future if you want to go with more storage at that time.

    As for a case, anything will do as long as it can hold however many hard drives you ultimately wish to put in it.
