They’ve done the cosmic horror joke many times. I found it funny in my 20s.

Gabe’s art has gradually deformed and is just horrible now.

This ignores subjectivity. What is a 7/10 for most gamers could easily be a 10/10 for a specific type of gamer. Rather than focusing on review scores people should focus on the niche of games that they really enjoy.

If you keep trying to use GUI to do what you want you’re gonna have a bad time. The majority of Linux users doing power stuff like this will use the terminal. Because of that, the GUI is unfortunately underdeveloped.

It’s good once you learn it though. Let’s say that tool never existed. I could easily write a bash script to compress images in cbr or cbz myself. Or autoconvert all cbr files to cbz. Or watch my downloads directory for new files and do that automatically. It’s very flexible and empowering if you learn it. Nobody can make a GUI for every single thing people want a script for.

The ryzen thinkpads (T14s in my case) deliver graphics good enough for most indie games and older games. Combined with a switch I haven’t felt the need for anything else.

I learned how to do it purely to get free food at a restaurant. The idiot proof method takes about a day to learn and a bit longer to do reliably. Recommended!

I would not be too hard on yourself. Like you said long distance is extremely hard and kills relationships, even long term ones, let alone a young one like yours. It takes work - video calls, presents, routine conversation - and that comes from a commitment that you two hadn’t established yet. Or perhaps he was never willing to provide.

It is scary how quickly feelings can change, but I put that down again to how little you guys had known each other. I also had a 3 month relationship that was amazing, and we went LDR and it was like I couldn’t even remember their face or their voice after a while. If you had known him for say a year, it would have been a lot different.

Google Tasks is effectively unavoidable if you use Google products.

I had no idea it existed…

I went from several hours a day to zero after the blackout, morally I just don’t want to support them anymore. I still add ‘reddit’ to google searches sometimes and look at those, but no more mindless scrolling of the front page.

TIL. That’s a good point. 20k deaths due to the earthquake but only 1 due to the power plant itself.

it’s not the background radiation that worries people, it’s the risk of a Fukushima-type incident.

Since I was a kid I’ve always run up and down flights of stairs and continue to this day. It is fun, it’s a workout and I find walking far too slow.
