Notes
    gollark: I have a bunch of stuff bookmarked or starred, but I have no idea what you consider "interesting".
    gollark: I've not had any issues with btrfs yet. Though stuff I installed recently is configured with f2fs, so I'm not sure how much is using it.
    gollark: "Offline" in the sense of "not visible to the internet", I haven't burned it to blu-rays or something.
    gollark: I have offline low-resolution copies of styro's videos for if (when) YouTube does something stupid personally, too.
    gollark: The annoying thing is that bedrock edition is much better technologically but not moddable in any significant way, not usable on Linux and overly monetized.
