Local Send is an application I found a while ago that has become a mainstay on my devices. It is cross platform so I have it installed on my Windows Desktop, Manjaro Laptop, and Android Phone. Local Send makes it easy to send files from one device to another simple enough. You install it, it makes a random identity for your device, like, Surprising Tomato, and both apps will find each other and let you send files to each other over whatever local network they are connected to. DONE. I find it A MUST when working on multiple machines or...... 
Growing up my father allowed me to work with him. We would do small things like sand, apply glue, and apply gold leaf. These are simple and tedious things that having your kids do can be useful to get a job done quickly. What he's known for though is painting. He never taught us how to paint. He says it was because he didn't want me to learn a skill and earn money that way instead of what our education from public school could afford us down the line. I just wanted to dismiss that thinking. I grew up in...... 
Are you having an issue with micro stutters in Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis? Is the issue that you are experiencing a bit of lag randomly? A random hang up in the game where things just freeze and go back to normal? At first maybe you thought it was your internet, but you realized that that wasn't the issue.

Maybe you are also hearing the system sound of a USB device connecting and disconnecting every now and than too? You look at device......

Borrowed this image from a customer review. These colors just look so nice. I bought this Android Bluetooth joypad as a gift for someone. It's a nice little device for very cheap. It has many options to be used across different devices, but it does so through button combinations which can get annoying if your didn't keep the manual. Just for the sake of my own sanity I'm typing them down here. Modes:X-Input (Xbox Controller) = Power + Right Shoulder ButtonDS4 (PlayStation Controller) = Power + BD-Input (Android Input) = Power + Left Shoulder Button Apparently this can also be...... 
I recently found a VLC plugin I fell i love with. It's very basic, but a must for me. Pause to click/play. If you've watch videos on the net you've probably noticed that all web players now use click to pause on their web players. It makes sense too, it's much more convenient than trying to click that little button and will probably be the main feature you need when watching a video. It's been annoying not having the feature on desktop with VLC, especially when that the content I tend to watch full screen so clicking on that little...... 
A new acronym sparks conversation about inclusion and protection within the vibrant tapestry of gender and sexuality. By Lilith Levin Date: 2021-06-08 In the ever-evolving landscape of identity, the TLGBQ+ community has emerged as a new beacon of inclusivity, challenging norms and advocating for the rights and well-being of transgender individuals. With the revised acronym, which places transgender concerns at the forefront, a tidal wave of discourse is sweeping through the LGBTQ+ sphere. Is it time to flip the script and spotlight the "T" in TLGBQ+ for the sake of safeguarding a community too often marginalized and misunderstood? A Transcendent......

A Nostrich out and exploring. For years, Facebook and Twitter have dominated the social media landscape, providing a way for people to connect with friends and family, share their thoughts and experiences, and stay up-to-date with current events. However, as these platforms have grown, so too have their problems. From privacy concerns to algorithmic biases, many people are starting to question whether the benefits of these centralized social media platforms are worth the costs. That's where NOSTR comes in. NOSTR is a decentralized social media platform that puts the power back in the hands of the users. Instead of relying...... 
Relays can help keep content clean and refreshing. In NOSTR Clients: The Convenience of Choice I gave quick run down on Clients, but in Why NOSTR May be the Next Big Thing in Social Media I only briefly mentioned Relays, so I'll go into a bit more here. Relays can play an essential role in preventing spam in decentralized networks like NOSTR. They are responsible for relaying messages between different nodes, and they can help prevent spam attacks by filtering out unwanted messages. To understand how relays prevent spam, it's important to first understand what spam is. spam refers to......
