I regret throwing the box away. I think it’s a 2019 Macbook Pro with an Intel i7 CPU. The device has been wiped but macOS Utilities is still on it. Last when I was working on it, I think I needed to reinstall a OS in order for the hardware to have a link to the Apple for firmware updates?
Today is a good day to set this device up. It’s been on my todo list.
Did you follow a certain guide by chance? I have a macbook but I’m slowly finding out that Apple silicone is trickier to setup Linux with.
Yes I have been connecting my ProController to my Linux machine via USB-C. I’m using the Bazzite image from Universal Blue. Here’s my output from the fastfetch --format json command:
{ "type": "OS", "result": { "buildID": "Stable (F42.20251002)", "codename": "Kinoite", "id": "bazzite", "idLike": "fedora", "name": "Bazzite", "prettyName": "Bazzite", "variant": "Kinoite", "variantID": "bazzite-nvidia-open", "version": "42.20251002.0 (Kinoite)", "versionID": "42" } },
I have been using a Nintendo ProController since 2017 for all my gaming needs. It’s a solid controller and can be use any USB-C cable to connect to your PC. Solid battery life if you ever need to go wireless. I am monster though and just deal with the buttons being mapped to Xbox layouts so ‘X’ and ‘Y’ are always mapped backwards. I now know that Steam has a feature for mapping buttons now.
With all of that said, I also am looking for a new controller. My palms have been hurting as of late when I use the ProController.I will always recommend this controller but my hands are hurting more during longer play sessions. It never used to feel like this so I think I need to start stretching these old hands prior to playing.
If anyone has any input on comparing 8bitDuo’s Pro 2 or Gulikit’s KingKong 2 Pro Controller to Nintendo’s ProController, I’d like to read your thoughts :)
I second CoolerControl. It is able to control fan speed depending on the temperature of your CPU!
A little late to this comment but there are some assembly videogames out! They are puzzles and gives you the gist of how assembly works.
I really enjoyed TIS-100. I just never got around to beating it.
Here’s a neat video about the creator and the game - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JouTsMQsEA
Ditto. I jumped ship from Windows 10 to Bazzite. That’s how I learned about the Universal Blue project. It’s working like a charm. Freedom!
I recently found out how to install Sublime by following these instructions here since Sublime is not on Flathub. Maybe this will help you out!

I really need to figure out how to get Jellyfin to use SSL certs and assigning a domain to the instance.
One option i haven’t seen mentioned is Startmail. They also have a searh engine that’s okay.
Nothing wrong with wanting change.
Currently I’m working on setting up Azure Private Endpoints to be able to get our datafactory to communicate within an established vnet instead of communicating out over the internet.
I’m not strong with my network skills so this is a learning curve for me.
Man that’s wild. There were devs sending these instructions?
The last season of Ozark was great imo. My only gripe was the last scene with their son. Why the complete 180?
I’m using icons from the Anycon pack. It’s the Niagara Launcher’s “collection of icon packs specifically developed for Niagara Launcher”.
My recommendation is Niagara Launcher. It’s more minimal than other launchers. I like the reduction in clutter.
That wallpaper is one of the wallpapers that comes with the Niagara launcher!
I use startpage as my primary search engine. It’s also privacy based and has an A rating from TermsofService;Didn’t Read.
Late to the thread but I use startmail
