According to an LTT video that broke down thier revenue about 11 months ago, 45% of your premium sub is divided among creators that you watch.
Not sure how thats calculated, but it seems to be a pretty sizable chunk according to LTT.

Nothing wrong with that. I pay for YouTube premium. Tbh I got fed up with all the hoops on mobile so I just started paying for it and honestly, its been a good fit for me.
I watch a ton of YouTube content so paying for it to support creators and not having ads is fine with me.
Guides helped a lot for me. Also just watching people who routinely did good in ascension 20 was beneficial.
Some general advice that helped me quite a bit was:
Take on as many elite enemy’s as possible without dying. They make you stronger from the relics they give as well as the card rewards and potion drops.
Remove strikes and defends from your deck while adding new cards. You want to keep a smaller deck typically, but having draw cards is also great to help you get through your deck more quickly.
Upgrade cards as much as you can. Upgraded cards help you scale for fights.
Look at the map before doing anything on each act. You can plan a route and see what is the best path based on your character or what you start with.
All that said, each run is different but the more you play, the more informed you are so you can make better choices each run based on what you know.
I may give balatro another go at some point, but just didn’t give me the same feeling that slay the spire did.
They also added a mechanic to fix broken weapons with the rock octorock but they didn’t really make it obvious and its still weird they didn’t let you repair weapons any other way.
Oh man if I ever have kids, this is absolutely gonna be me.
I like avocado. Raw, unseasoned by itself, it tastes good to me. Even better on toast or with something else.
Me and the girlfriend had them on BLTs we made the other day. Shits delicious.
Haha that is funny, I loved slay the spire. On lower ascensions, I would do pretty well, but after ascension 8, I struggled hard. I think the best I got was 12 or something on all the characters. Past that in couldn’t win most runs.
Balatro felt much more punishing for some reason I guess. Slay the spire has more strategy and skill based mechanics which i think made it more fun or at least, had mechanics that I could more easily enjoy/understand. In Balatros defense, I didn’t unlock everything so maybe thats why i didn’t enjoy it as much.
Dude I was gonna say balatro too. That game is fucking hard as hell.
I played it for a few days and man, it felt so unfair each time.
Slay the spire felt much more fair. When I failed then, it felt like it was my fault more often than not. In Balatro though, nah man. Shits rigged lol.
I would also take a headphone jack if we could swing that.
I’m a FAM of silicone eartips for sure. Better seal, better fit, more comfortable.
I can’t stand the hard plastic earbuds man. Hurts my ears and they dont fit as well.
I have never liked headsets. I wear glasses so over the ear headsets aren’t comfortable for me. Not to mention, headsets are often overpriced and dont sound as good as a dedicated mic with headphones IMO, but I also make music so audio is a bit more important to me. I also just like having separate devices so that if something breaks, I don’t have to throw out a whole device.
xlr mic paired with audio interface and whatever flavor of headphones you want is my go to.
I use a mxl 770 mic with a focusrite 2i2 interface and I use shure se215-K in ear monitors for headphones. I also use this setup for making music or for talking with friends over discord.
Focusrite works great on Linux on I haven’t had any issues with this setup. This is a more expensive upfront but I haven’t bought a new mic or headphones in years so I think it works out to be more cost effective over time.
For a wireless setup, if you’re OK with your mic being wired, you could get a decent USB mic and pair that with a pair of wireless headphones.
I think you should first figure out why you aren’t sticking with Linux and go from there.
I just use kubuntu at this point. It works as well as works and feels how I want it to. I don’t need anything super fancy or customizable. Kubuntu hits that sweet spot for me.
Agreed. Lentils can also be good if you wanna make it last longer but if you’re going all traditional chilli, its all beans dawg. Kidney beans, pinto and black beans are all good choices.
Wow a great bill to stop people from making weapons. Y’all gonna ban pipes and steel ball bearings next?
The fuck is our country coming to man.
For me personally, fallout 4 requires mods to be enjoyable. I enjoyed skyrim without mods but fallout 4 did a terrible job with dialogue options which is always the first mod I add.
Other things like the unofficial patch, better settlement building mods, etc. just help make the game playable.
Theres always something like that to fix man. Some things just take priority, then when you have the time, the energy, and the money in some cases, you fix it.
Ive seen the mods out there but nothing does quite what I’d like. I do appreciate that people are making mdos and that the devs are keeping modding in mind though.
I really enjoy timberborn, but the building mechanics and the amount of blocks, decorations, and buildings leave something to be desired for me.
The overall gameplay is fun, but I’d really like more blocks and decorations to use as everything you build in this game looks very much the same through different playthroughs.
Also there needs to be something else to do with science after you unlock everything. Upgrades for beavers or something.
I had issues with it back in 2022 when trying a few different distros. I had 3 monitors of all the same size and I had weird visual glitches when trying to use the ui to set refresh rate or resolution.
Now though? Haven’t had any issues since i switched to Linux as my daily driver in 2024.
I fucking love that little goblin in the corner. What a masterpiece
