Have you considered that you don’t have to send a full message when you mistype?
People know that happens
Why are you not fighting for this?

As a psychotherapist, let me tell you, it would be a good idea if more adults read some children’s books sometimes.

I think paying for remote access counts as a hoop.

As a therapist surrounded by therapists, and we all constantly notice things, it does get a bit much.
- Comment on how are my fellow peeps hosting your music collection these days? 2 weeks ago:
I got an SMB sync app on my phone, stores any new music I’ve found into the network folder and syncs it up on my phone.
Sorted. Wherever I get more tracks from, they’re available on all my devices.

- Comment on Are foldable phones as good/bad as they say? 2 weeks ago:
This is exactly why I wanted one. Exactly why I then got it, and on discovering it worked exactly like I wanted, I got a better one.
If you’ve ever wished for a bigger screen on your phone…
(I love toys, gadgets and tech so for me the price point was worth it. Objectively, the higher price I don’t think is justified by the higher utility)

If God had intended us to communicate with Brevity, he would never have generated the outrageous monstrosity that is the verbose English language.

Small stuff doesn’t really interest me, or my partner.
Doesn’t mean we’re incapable of discussing dinner plans or cleaning schedules.
- Comment on What games are just objective master pieces? 5 weeks ago:
I still repplay now and then, there’s no game like it.
Sadly the sequals failed to capture the grace of the original, though I’ve not tried 3 yet.

Some of you will be fighting for your planet. Some of you will be dying for your planet. Some of you will be forced through a fine screen mesh for your planet. Those will be the luckiest of all.

My Picks…
Deus Ex (So many games try to be this and fail) Cyberpunk (This one eventually measured up) Alpha Centauri (Innovation mixed with familiarity and setting) Fallout 2 (they’re all good. Fallout 2 is special) Kotor (Star Wars story telling in a beautiful way) Baldur’s Gate 2 and 3 (I’m stunned that 3 was a worthy successor) Homeworld (One of the World’s truly beautiful games)

It’s interesting to consider the definition of real in that sense then, because many experiences do not have an objective cause, or at least not one that directly correlates to the subjective experience.
God, evil, ghosts, happiness. They’re real In the sense that we can experience them, however, the shared understanding largely comes from an internal place, a necessary agreement of experience with the concepts of its objects.

Certainly, that was the Gnostics viewpoint. It has as much merit as any other

That’s certainly one definition of evil, yes
Of course if you believe “God” set all of this in motion and with foreknowledge then even those seemingly random events have god’s intent behind them, yes?
