When I first learned to bake bread and pizza.

Five years later I was 60lb/27kg heavier and needed to go on keto to break the bread habit. Sigh. Took me almost as long to lose an the weight, but I’ve kept it off now for almost ten years!

I forgot Dead Cells! It’s so goooood.

And how could I forget Darkest Dungeons! MANY HAVE FALLEN IN THE FACE OF CHAOS, BUT NOT THIS ONE, NOT TODAY 😭

I’ll have to add Hollow Knight to the list, thanks for the suggestion

We’re living in a golden age of indie games! I’ve been loving games like:

• Celeste
• Manor Lords
• Predecessor
• Fire watch
• What remains of Edith Finch
• Curse of the Golden Idol
• Cuphead
• Stardew Valley
• Luck be a Landlord
• Return of the Obra Din

If you want good bigger budget games there’s still great options like:

• Elden Ring
• Stellaris
• Palworld
• Balders Gate 3
• Deep Rock Galactic

Thanks for getting me to laugh this early

OH NA NA NA NA NA YA

I WANNA BE

CONSEQUENCE FREE

Wow that’s good news, I’ll have to give it a shot

Am I going to have a bad time trying to switch to Wayland? I just use discord, Spotify, steam, some basic steam games, Krita, and emacs

Hey now there’s nothing weird about being completely unable to focus under fluorescent lights.

Definitely include a graph of shareholder value overlayed on top.

Sarcasm aside, maybe we should have a graph that also shows:

• average hours worked a year
• average number of sunsets a person sees before they die
• average hours spent with loved ones per year
• average rent
• average hours worked to pay for groceries
• average hours spent doomscrolling on social media
• average student loan debt payments
• suicide rate
• average zoom calls a year
• happiness

And see that by basically all metrics we are working more, paid less, more depressed, more stressed, and unhappy.

Well with your mild surprise on the line the stakes couldn’t be higher

I know C# works, it pays my bills so that’s good enough for me.

Here’s a good place to see what it can do:

aspnet core is the library you want

Simple and just works

F# is so dope too

Oh man this good me laughing way too hard, well done

CrossFit, running club, November project, hiking club, board game clubs, DND clubs, Meetup.com events. Coed sports leagues like: disc golf, infinite Frisbee, soccer.

There’s also things like live figure drawing, music jam clubs, acting in local plays.

Absolutely meirl. I keep making frame rate drops on games, but my CPU is … Checks date… top of the line 2012 tech!

Ok but what crow time comic,

Edit, Crow Time is amazing

This is quite accurate

Seems like it increases cancer risk, but it’s the cheapest way we have to sanitize water so

I’m putting the water in glass containers, so no need to worry about it leeching materials. Also, I am positive I get all the micronutrients (the paper your cited refers to magnesium and iron) I need from vegetables, without needing to resort to tap water that contains high levels of microplastics. I also brush my teeth with floride, so no need to worry about dental caries.

Bidet attachment for a toilet. You can get them cheap, or spend a bit more for heated seats, warmed water, fans for drying, etc. Best bathroom decision ever.

Countertop electric water distiller. For a reasonable price you can get a countertop water distiller that runs a gallon for like $0.15. No more microplastics, chlorine, ammonia, lead, or facial matter in your drinking water! Tastes SO GOOD, nothing like the plastic filled distilled water from the store, blech. Every time we make a batch, we’ll smell the sticky residue left in the heating chamber and gag. It is nasty stuff. In our tap water, gross. Clean water for me please! Makes our coffee, tea, and kumbucha taste a lot better too.

Getting into a healthy BMI and daily exercise is pretty epic too. You’ll just feel better every day.

As climate change gets worse, having resilience like stored food and water will be helpful to deal with more frequent natural disasters. No sense bothering with fancy meal packets, a couple dozen big cans of dried beans will go a long way if there’s a shelter in place order.
