  • Our two cats will sometimes play by one grabbing a cat dancer or string toy and dragging it around while the other follows, so you could try that sort of toy where it’s all attached but they can each have their own piece of string to grab.

    The other way our cats will play together is one will get up on the dining table and start knocking shit off the table for the other to play with… But that’s not really our preferred method.

    Our cats are siblings/bonded pair so your milage may vary. They also sometimes just chase each other which is fun for them too I guess.



  • The proxmox interface let’s you make the containers, but you have to install the software you want to host in that container after creation.

    These scripts let you run a script that makes the container and also installs what you want to host within the container and does the setup.

    I used their script to set up a home assistant vm, you run the script and it downloads the HaOS install media and does the install in the VM for you, preconfigured, and starts it so all I had to do was go access the web interface.


  • Just switch to visual mode and select the text and yank it.

    Press v where you want to start the selection from (switches to visual mode), hjkl (or arrow keys) to move the cursor to the end, then you can yank it from there. It’ll highlight what you’re selecting just like you’re using your mouse, but you’re using the keyboard.

    If you want to get really fancy there are 3 different kinds of visual mode, but lower case is the most often one that I use because it’s char by char, V is line by line, Ctrl+v is “block” (you can select chunks across several lines omitting things at the beginning or end of lines).

    Ctrl+V to do the block mode is nice if you need to edit the same part of several lines that all line up vertically, you just Ctrl+v, jk to select the lines, then I (shift+i) to insert on all those lines (if you’re in vim you can delete things in insert mode also, if you’re in vi you’ll need to delete first then insert)







  • Counter strike 2, released recently and runs on Linux, I can’t say that the people you’ll meet on that will be that great all the time, but you may be able to meet people there.

    You might also be able to meet people in RuneScape or old school RuneScape, or other MMO type games, usually they have clan features where you can join a group of players.

    Not sure if it’s still busy with players but kingdom of loathing also at least used to have players you could chat with live, and could join a clan or something like that in there.







  • I should look into how to do the rollbacks, I’ve noticed it doing snapshots but haven’t needed to do that yet. Still should know before I do need it.

    My worst problem so far was dual booting to Debian and having the efi entry for Garuda disappear and then not being able to get back easily without modifying debian’s grub. Not fixable with snapshots but still simple enough for me to fix.
