I have $25 wired IEMS that sound better than my most expensive Bluetooth tws sets. I’ve taken to just listing to podcasts and YouTube videos with my Bluetooth sets at work.

I used to be a big fan of Samsung, but over the past couple years it has become a do not buy brand for me. They keep doing anticompetitive stuff with their phones so my next phone won’t be one.
Start of 2024 my Samsung TV that wasn’t that old up and died. And my less than a year old Samsung monitor is flickering.
My watch 6 classic is my favorite smart watch I’ve ever had, but in order to get it working well on a non Samsung phone you need to go through a bunch of bullshit hassle.
Yeah, they’ve got a ton of great documentaries there, plus some other series that are pretty great.
If I had to give up YouTube I’d move to Nebula. It’s been growing and is steadily getting better.
Back when the stories broke that the CIA helped to fund itself for their Contra operations by smuggling cocaine into America they helped protect the CIA because they were angry that a small time paper and Gary Web broke the story instead of mainstream media.
There are declassified CIA documents talking about how helpful the LA Times and New York Times were on helping them cover up the scandal. They were worried about the continued existence of the CIA with everything coming out but mainstream media came to their defense unprompted.

I currently have a prime sub, but anything I watch on prime I just pirate instead. I’m on linux so torrenting gets me better video quality.
Layoffs make the stock price go up. It’s a “look at all the money we are saving!” Move. Get a short term profit at the expense of long term gains, because to shareholders short term profits matter more.
I forgot the exact speech I used, but once I had the baddie that the party killed give a dying speech about how “Now they’ll win, there’s nothing to stop them now.”
So they realized of course that there was some big evil thing that he was trying to stop. But… they were really bad at investigating, and after a couple bad rolls they were convinced he was some kind of heroic figure.
The guy was just racist. There had been a war in the neighboring country and there were a bunch of deep gnomes coming into the country as refugees and he hated them, and wanted to go on a big ol ethic cleansing. This was not a secret plot.
Had a few interesting interactions with NPCs after that with the party talking about how amazing the evil guy was when talking to some of the refugees. One of the players figured it out at that point but thought it was funnier to keep going, and had his character dedicate his life to fighting in his memory.
I moved to a laptop for my main system for portability, and I’m really enjoying the reduction in my power bill from my previous threadripper 1950x build.
Lately I keep coming back to Garuda Gnome. I would prefer to use KDE, but kde seems to have issues with my setup in different ways in x11 and Wayland. Hoping things are better in KDE 6
I’d buy a house. Not something huge, but decently sized riverfront property.

I use Garuda Gnome Linux. It’s setup nearly how I would set up an arch install from scratch, just working out of the box. I’ve done a lot of distro hopping in the past year, but I keep going back to Garuda.
Amazon Prime, though probably won’t renew next year with how crappy shopping on Amazon has gotten. Don’t want anything on Prime at all.
Currently have a Netflix sub that I plan to let expire.
Have a crunchyroll sub, every once and a while I sub to HiDive to a month to binge a series.
For music I’m subbed to Deezer.
I also have YouTube Premium and a sub to Floatplane.
Gentoo was my second linux Distro ever some time in 2003 or 2004.
Installed it by printing out the full install doc, which was like 30 or 40 pages, and starting up a stage one install. I got through the entire install by following the instructions because the documentation was that good.
I remember having a problem and hopping on an irc chat to ask for help and people there being baffled about the basic level questions I was asking while having a working Gentoo install.
