;_; Star Wars legends fan, I will continue to resent Disney forever for blighting one of my favorite franchises. But yeah new “Star Wars” content has ceased to excite me. When the acolyte came out and I saw the reviews I was completely unsurprised.

Sounds familiar. We can be downvote-and-report buddies!

Check out Splattercatgaming on YouTube, he covers a fair few good looking indie games.

Had no major issues with Steam games so far on Linux mint, but I like owning my games, so I buy as much as I can from GOG, and Lutris and Heroic both have not given me exactly easy experiences :L

You mean after you remove all the mechanical pieces and spyware?

Try not to use soap if possible, it can get into the iron since it’s porous and become a part of the “seasoning”. Same goes for mortar and pestle care

Shadowrun Hong Kong, and Ronin, the game on Steam with the chick and motorcycle helmet. There is also an app called Kingturn RPG that rocks. Oh and I almost forgot the best one of all, Metal Gear Rising Revengeance.

I picked up uke super fast, much easier than guitar since it’s only got 4 strings and they’re often nylon or whatever and not metal. Not great at it, takes a while to freestyle, but the basic chords are simple, and there’s a few channels on YouTube that put out four chord songs. Also fairly cheap, I started on a $50 one that wasn’t great but passable, and upgraded later to Enya for like $130 and that works just fine

 

Hey guys! I’m looking for an EDC light that’s 800+ (pref 1000+) lumens, tailcap switch, rechargeable via mini USB or USB-C, and less than $50– is that price point delusional?
The closest I’ve gotten is the Wurkkos FC11 but that’s a little too large for my pocket and doesn’t have the tailcap switch (which means it turns on in my pocket sometimes and I can’t turn it on as quick when I grab it). My use case is obviously flashlighty stuff but an important use for me is that it’s part of my self defense layering.

Lumintop has a “Tool AA 2.0 EDC” that is about the perfect shape (fits in my fist- not square, knobby, or fat) and size (3.52*0.73 inch), but it’s not rechargeable, not as bright as the Wurkkos (but still bright at 650 lumens), and I don’t need its 5 different light modes to cycle through if I accidentally tap the back during use. Still would recommend the light, and I thought about getting a USB-C rechargeable AA for it, but as previously stated I’d really like something a little brighter and ideally a better tailcap switch.

I browsed the forum, and I saw a couple posts about the Wurkkos TS10. It’s kind of similar in size to another light I have and is a little fat for what I’m looking for. I think the FC11 is as thick or a little thinner, and still a bit big for what I’m looking for. May still try the TS10 if I can’t find anything else. I’d still consider stuff outside of the $50 price range but I really want something inside if at all possible.
