- Comment on Stardew Valley Creator Says 1.7 Update Will Contain 'More Character/Social Stuff' and a New Farm Type 4 weeks ago:
Proof that (good) games don’t need free to play to be supported over time. Can just have people pay the upfront price and keep rolling.
I do hope their finances are in the greens to keep going.
- Comment on My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories 4 weeks ago:
A culture that doesn’t appreciate food allows it to happen slowly.
- Comment on Always wear protection, folks 5 weeks ago:
Group fitness classes also play their music way too loud. Had to get some ear plugs when going to them. I am concerned for the trainers and regulars.
- Comment on Valve: HDMI Forum Continues to Block HDMI 2.1 for Linux 5 weeks ago:
I don’t know this area well. But I have a strong preference for all port shapes to be the same where possible. Can USB-C shaped heads do the same thing as DisplayPort? If not now, is it possible to make it in the future.

I legitimately want to learn the proper timeline with no bias. Is there a good source out there? Because I am genuinely confused.

The original guy that made Oculus stuck around after the buy out, until a couple years ago and rage quit. Because he said that Meta is killing his original vision. So yeah.

Is this a trustworthy analysis? I wanted to understand what happened. I am confused after reading this a while back, but still seeing people actively saying he praised Trump. I do what to know exactly what happened in the end to make a judgement.

I’m a 5.
Probably why I prefer graphic novels and was not really into textual books that much. I wish I could play a whole movie in my head while reading a book. I’m so jealous.
My dreams are super vivid though, and lucid dream often. And I remember my dreams in heavy detail. My dreams are like a 1 or 2.

You have an end point that’s pretty close, and that’s great! If you know that your load will lighten up after, keep at it.
Rely on your partner and friends for connection and help you through it. Be frank about your feelings. The people who turn to alcohol and adultery because of stress are the people that have been unfortunately told to keep it in and shoulder everything on their own, or unfortunately don’t have support. Find support and healthy outlets rather than turning to destructive substances or actions that are hard to take back.
You can do it!

It’s a “box” instead of a dongle now. Called TV Streamer. Essentially the same thing.
- Comment on 'Windmill': China tests world’s first megawatt-level airship to capture high winds 3 months ago:
This is a factual statement. Whether people like how it sounds or not.
It is true, though lacking fail safes of a real democracy is a dangerous game to play in the long term, even if technically positive in the moment. As most autocratic leaders seek to gain continuous and more power. Or their predecessor does.
- Comment on Time to bash Americans again 4 months ago:
Yeah, a UK friend of mine mentioned that it is meant to prevent kids from playing hooky (ditch school). Meanwhile in Canada, we’re free range children.
Or does probably depend on the school.

I also don’t know why we tip in Canada, they have the minimum wage paid. It’s still not a “living wage”, but the retail worker has the same wage.
