I use Linux Mint, mostly because I’m familiar with it. If I was to redo it, I would likely just run Debian.

I got an aftermarket 9 cell battery on Amazon for like $30, mine has 8 hours of battery life at idle now in Mint with the brightness all the way up. Highly recommended. Three SSDs, 16GB of RAM, but otherwise stock T420.
Agreed. To me, the ringing is just what silence sounds like now after 15 years of the ringing. Mine isn’t very bad, so I only really hear it in quiet spaces, but I protect my hearing as much as possible now to prevent it from getting worse.
Dunno if it’s been delisted since, but I installed it on all my Rokus and Roku TVs a few weeks back without issue.
If you want some variety, I played a ton of PowerWash Simulator when I had COVID and it was fantastic. Just chill, not much thought required, and clean stuff with a pressure washer progression system.
Phantasy Star Online. They’ve tried to release sequels over the years - Universe, PSO2 - and failed miserably at capturing what made Episodes 1 and 2 great. There’s no way they would be able to just update the graphics without trying to “improve” something in the gameplay, or changing the loot system, or adding MTX, and would just fuck it up again.
PSO is so good that even now, 23 years after it launched on Dreamcast, there’s still hundreds if not thousands of people like me that still play regularly. Whether that’s offline on their GameCube or online in Blue Burst on PC on a server like Ephinea.
NoMachine has Android and Windows clients.
I use NoMachine between windows and Linux and I’m happy with it. According to their site they support MacOS.
Nah. My older 1080p stuff remains, but I just do 4k only now. Media server is powerful enough to transcode to 1080 on the fly for any device that can’t handle 4k, or for slower network conditions.
