durability systems in non crafting games suck all of the joy out for me. I get weirdly anxious about "optimizing" my weapons and end up only using bad weapons and making the game needlessly hard on myself.

I don't think I have ever seen a worse sourced Wikipedia section. I agree with the general sentiment but holy shit I'm suprised that whole section hasn't just been thrown out.

Edit: checked the talk page apparently it was one of the students edited ones which explains why it reads like an essay I rushed out the night before the due date.

I don't think it's a paid browser (there are a few of those though) it's a paid search engine.

Can we just be realistic and understand that most people can't/won't do this. Most people do not have the time/technical knowhow to host everything themselves.

Edit: came back to this and wanted to clarify. It would be great if people could self host literally everything but I don't get any crucial information through emails or really ever besides in person. I am more than willing to pay a reasonable amount to support privacy features but I'm not personally willing to spend 10x that amount in time to do something that will probably not work because I am not an IT person. I do not have to time to learn how to self host 26 different pieces of software that I have been told I need to self host nor do I have the spare computer parts lying around to build a machine to host them. I have looked at self hosting a matrix client because that is the one type of app that I get anything I want to keep private sent to me but my family is already using signal so I'm unconvinced that switching is worth while.

I should have made paragraphs but I forgot to my bad.

I dislike gnome to an unreasonable extent. I tried using it when I first tried linux and it did not vibe.

IDK I asked my wife and she agreed. I think it has to do with the lighting and the expression on her face.

The first one looks like a porn parody and I dont know why.

Also schools that thought just seeing the tech used would give you innate knowledge on how to use a computer.

This is the only one of these that I simply do not believe I am genz and admittedly more into computers than average but I have never met anyone who couldn't figure out to right click to make a new folder unless they mean that they didn't know how to use the terminal to do it.

I couldn't ever get into oblivion since skyrim was my first Bethesda game and a lot of oblivion felt like (to me) slightly janky skyrim. I was able to get into morroeind though because it was just so diffrent.

 

If I'm getting an Orthodox split for the first time would it be worthwhile to learn a different layout at the same time since I've heard the learning curve is already pretty rough? I'm thinking of colemak-DH specifically but if there is a better option I'm open to hearing it.

From what I've heard you'd probably see a spike in medical deaths basically immediately.

No but GMM had been producing content for over 10 years and they are still looked at fondly.

If you don't like that example I won't say they are the greatest works ever made but their are so many indie animators that are making whole shows and uploading them for free on YouTube that many people will remember fondly.

Go look at James Lee's channel. He would never be given the freedom to do the weird style he has on tv.

 

I personally connect deeply with AmΓ©lie Farren. I've been listening to her music since she first posted it to tiktok. I can't explain what about it connects so well but it just clicjs for me.

That got me thinking what artists other lemmings connected to. Hence the title
