One of my go-to's are programming, i rarely play video games these days. I go for walks once in a while haha

As im writing this i have come to the realization that i am a boring person.

i came here to mention Affinity Designer, but Photo is a great one.

It should be mentioned that Affinity Designer can be considered a combination between illustrator and photoshop.

I use ProtonMail. Additionally, i have set up e-mail aliases with my domain - i get e-mail addresses like kbin@mydomain.com, or personal@mydomain.com. Its quite useful when i suddenly get sent a bunch of random spam e-mail.

I can then just block that e-mail from receving e-mail, its quite handy.

In my opinion, if you own a computer - a streamdeck is a great investment regardless.

I mostly use my computer for software development, and web development and i have to say that the streamdeck has been a lifesaver in those regards.
I do play games once in a while, including Euro Truck Simulator 2 on my other gaming rig and i wouldn't be able to play it without a streamdeck. I have mapped most of the binds to keys, and use my streamdeck to press those keys. Its really handy.
Same goes for the other car simulator i play, i use the streamdeck on Live For Speed to send pre-defined text messages, as well as ignition, lights, TC etc.

Anyway, i tried to keep this comment short. Sorry.
One last thing: I have had it for around 3 years now and would not be able to replace it anytime soon.

I'm a bit too late to the party, but i will tell you about what i use.

I use a wireless IP camera from Reolink. You can use any camera really.
Then I purchased a license for Blue Iris, so i have that running on my computer downstairs.
Blue Iris is so under-rated. Its really good, there's a setting for anything you can think of and quite advanced motion detectors.

Hell, it can even detect license plates!

I'm not on beehaw, but kbin.

Though, i do play on my nintendo switch from time to time. The games are mad expensive so i keep most of my games on the desktop computer.

I use GitHub Desktop - offered by GitHub themself. Its a GUI application where you can fetch, push, pull etc. But mostly just basic github "commands".

With a bit of basic VM knowledge, this operation can be done for free. I run VMs myself to run certain macros and some windows stuff. As i am primarily a linux user.

EDIT: BUt good point @firecat . I think a VM should do the trick.

but I keep getting logged out after a bit of inactivity and it makes me enter my credentials when I decide to comment.

You have to make sure to tick "Remember me" when you log in to your account.

when I click on links from the various posts, it doesn't open a new tab

Ah yes. Sadly there is not an option for this, unless someone made an extension? I'm sure they will correct this in the future.
