I absolutely loved 2. I beat 2 before I beat 1, but went back and beat 1, and beat 2 multiple more times.

I can’t say I have an order, but I love:

• Kingdom Hearts 2
• Kingdom Hearts 3
• Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep

Those are my favorite from the series as whole.

I really couldn’t ever get into Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories or Re:Chain of Memories.

Back in the day, I bought Birth by Sleep and beat it, but wanted more; so there was an English Patch of the final mix for PSP available and beat that too. And when the collection came out on PS4 (Before the PC release) I went and bought a PS4 Pro just for KH collection. Which now I am going back and beating all of them again but on Proud.

I loved Kingdom Hearts 3 regardless of the masses saying otherwise. It’s my opinion, and I’m sticking to it. I’ve been around since 1, all the way til it’s end.

I am not sure if there is a good way to do it without scripting, and a router that would allow for taking variable input from an external script. But theoretically if the router would support it, you could script a port change at times there are no one on the server.

Essentially the server port is in a text file, you could use some command line utilities, and write a script leveraging something like sed to change the port in place.

But I am overcomplicating it. lol

I was pondering on building my own spin of Arch. Have a look at this: archiso

I am on Wayland and have the issue.

I tried using Bazzite since I didn’t want to fuss with Wayland on Nvidia with Arch.

I had more gripes and more issues with an immutable distro than I ever did with my Arch install.

Stuck it out with Arch. It has taught me a lot.

The problem many folks have with Arch is the fact they don’t want to read or learn; well, newsflash, if you read and learn Arch isn’t exactly all that hard to use, setup, or maintain. It has better documentation than Bazzite and other newer distros. In fact, Arch Wiki has saved me hassle for other distros.

Your mileage may vary. However, I wouldn’t recommend an immutable distribution nec3ssarily to someone coming from Windows unless they want to shift from one paradigm to another.

Switching from Windows to something with such a vastly different approach in many cases will turn users away from using Linux. Their experience can dictate they switch away because of lack of knowledge and then proced to conflate every distro as just one “Linux” experience and not want to look back at it.

I still stand by one thing you will always hear me say: use the right tool for the job.

I’m having similar. When machine dims the display, it’s changing my monitors brightness and doesn’t bounce back.

There are very few games I have I can’t play on Linux.

Cant get the Crysis Remastered trilogy (epic games variants) working. Can’t get Alan Wake Remastered working above 16fps. And a few more, but guess I don’t need to play them.

Glad to hear another success story of someone who dropped Windows.

I dropped Windows on all of my machines over a month ago. My 2 desktops and 1 laptop I own are on Arch. I can’t fully escape Windows completely due to music production software I use due to lack of support for the hardware on Linux. (Thanks Line6…) So I run a Windows VM in QEMU with USB passthrough, but with no network access.

I wrote an alias to count days its been since I switched to Linux full time.

It wasn’t a difficult switch for me. Even with the learning curve. I actually enjoy the tinkering and learning aspect.

I cannot take credit for finding the solution. Someone on a discord chat I found was able to help me. The fix:

1 Open a terminal:

Unlock the LUKS partition:

cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/nvme0n1p2 arch

2 Mount the BTRFS filesystem: Since BTRFS has subvolumes, you need to mount the correct subvolume:

mount -o subvol=@ /dev/mapper/arch /mnt

3 Mount the necessary virtual filesystems:

mount --types proc /proc /mnt/proc
mount --rbind /sys /mnt/sys
mount --make-rslave /mnt/sys
mount --rbind /dev /mnt/dev
mount --make-rslave /mnt/dev

4 Bind the boot partition (if separate): If you have a separate boot partition, you need to mount it too:

mount /dev/nvme0n1p1 /mnt/boot

5 Chroot into your system:

arch-chroot /mnt

6 Fix your fstab: Ensure that your /etc/fstab file inside the chroot environment is correctly set up. You might need to generate a new one using genfstab:

genfstab -U /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab

7 Update GRUB: Reinstall and update GRUB to ensure it is correctly installed:

grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot --bootloader-id=GRUB
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Exit the chroot environment:

exit

Unmount all the filesystems:

bash

umount -R /mnt
cryptsetup luksClose arch

8 Reboot:

reboot

I will always recommend people to research their choice of distro. Use the right tool for the job.

What one person needs may differ from what another person needs. Take into account what the use case is for the machine you are using.

I use Arch BTW but I don’t run Arch for any of my servers. I use Arch where it makes sense for me.

I wouldn’t tell someone switching from Windows to just go balls to the wall and go for something blerding edge and arguably more maintenance or manual intervention needed.

I will give my suggestions but always implore them to research what theyt3 looking for.

Saying you don’t care about privacy because you have nothing to hide is like saying you don’t care about freedom of speech because you don’t have anything to say.

I did end up getting Android Auto to work luckily. However, other things just went sort of south from there. My use case for GrapheneOS wasn’t quite fit.

The built in firewall did work well enough for my usecase. However, I didn’t want a DNS based adblocking solution as that took away from my ability to connect to my home VPN. I should reach out to see if they can help. However, I did end up switching back to LineageOS since I could use a custom kernel which significantly lowered the running temps of my phone.

I wanted to try DivestOS, but there isn’t a Pixel 8 Pro build yet.

Huge fan of what GrapheneOS and the team/community have done to make it better. I am sure going to keep my eye on it going forward.

I can use private DNS but I need the DNS records in my personally hosted VPN to access my other self hosted solutions. So my use case is niche.

Currently I run a rooted phone AdAway Wireguard AFWall+

I need apps split tunnel between my VPN and outside of it. Apps running through VPN need to have my DNS Where the other apps I still want ad-blocking

I’m afraid that won’t quite work for me due to needing my VPN on, and set for split tunneling.

If I had AdAway (root mode, not VPN mode) I would switch back to GrapheneOS

Yeah, have never been a fan of Brave. Not shocked.

Yeah, I use AFWall+ and restrict granularly beyond just launcher.

I must block all network access to Nova.

AFWall+ to block internet connection to that among other apps is wonderful.
