Feels like an eternity that I last used single-letter drive names …

Know your audience. You’d think attorneys were better at that, but I guess witnesses don’t decide whether someone gets made attorney or not.

Yeah, there are actually exercises that I generally enjoy, like table tennis. Issue is getting to a place with table tennis, finding someone of somewhat comparable skill level who wants to be there at the same time and is fine playing with someone with very little stamina, not injuring myself.

I tried jogging for a couple of years, but it’s just not fun and I never felt like I got a general happiness boost out of it.

A good education? But as they say, you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink.

But it can make life better in general, because endorphins are awesome.

You’re supposed to get endorphins from exercise? I must have been doing it wrong.

I think the way ozempic works should have made it pretty clear that for a lot of people, it’s really not that easy. If they (the people who say that it’s easy to lose weight) had any empathy or basic amounts of trust in science.

TBH I tend to be horny after exercise.

My gut wants me to eat and do all the unhealthy shit until it’s time for my gut to actually deal with all that unhealthy shit.

Multiplayer with randos is to be avoided in general IMO.

Or just single player games in general. If Super Mario is fine (main “story” being that a princess gets abducted by a male villain and rescued by a man), there really aren’t that many games that are significantly worse.

Interesting study. Explicitly about mobile gaming, not PC gaming, though …

Probably contains “AI”, though.

TBH for me, between the sales and the Linux compatibility it’s still worth it even if I’m effectively renting the games.

That’s not great, but it’s not ‘company thriving under a very literally fascist regime’-bad.

Steam being a US-based company kinda put a damper on my willingness to shell out the moolah for games I might not even play …

I use xfce4-terminal, lxterminal is also good for the same reasons. The nice thing about them is that their configs are very stable (this can be a bit of an issue with KDE, e.g. I recently had to redo my editor themes for Kate because the old ones weren’t compatible anymore), and they save system resources by letting all terminals run in one process. Running terminal windows in separate processes might protect you from crashes, but even though I use terminals heavily I just never have terminal crashes. And they’re simpler to configure than e.g. urxvt.

I like pineapple pizza (as long as the pineapple pieces aren’t too big), but that burger sounds annoying. Not saying the flavors don’t combine well, but the amount of toppings makes it sound way too tall unless the slices are razor thin.

Depends on how long I’m inside, how dark the store is and how much of a fuck I give on a given day. I do think that most people think it’s rude/douchey/etc., but I’m not convinced that I should care about that kind of moralizing of etiquette (though I do care, to various degrees, what people think of me).

It’s somewhat harder to see inside with sunglasses, but I, too, wear prescription glasses so it’s a bit of a hassle to change to normal glasses.

A (more) reputable alternative is the Internet Archive at Archive.org, best known for the archiving of websites at web.archive.org.

Last I checked, archive.org usually didn’t work when articles are paywalled. Has that changed?

I really don’t want to use voice chat when I’m talking to random people, I’m already not using any chat features. I’d rather use a different platform if it comes up at one point (e.g. for stuff like coordinating between mods); I generally prefer it when software keeps its scope small.
