That would be an interesting twist on platforming. You can mint freely within an area, but movement between areas takes puzzle solving or challenges.

I just hope the whole thing doesn’t play like the flight levels.

It bothers me the face is on the same line as the longer word but a new line for the shorter word.

Microsoft once again jerks people in a new direction while claiming to have no intention of doing it again.

OK, but like do both? I can fix shit while talking. It amazes me how often some people just need to vent and listening while working is easy, helpful, and keeps them nearby so I can ask them to type their password in again but correctly this time.

There is a terrible misconception that there must be a point at which you stop enjoying things because it is improper, but at a certain point fuck the haters and enjoy the ride because none of us get out alive.

I say the same despite only speaking English because I once read it was less like blessing someone and more like saying “keep your demons to yourself.” I now believe that is inaccurate, but it does make for a story.

I started sleeping with rain sounds years ago because I would always hyperfixate on every little noise. The wobbling tone of the ceiling fan was enough to keep me awake some nights. I’ve played my usual setup for people and it’s always too quiet for them to near, but it’s louder than every creak and pop of the house. The track I picked was based on what actual rain sounds like outside my window.

Airlines charge you for comfort. The transport is the same for everyone on board, but more comfortable accommodations cost more.

If they could get away with loading people in feet-first they would, and your legs would still be too long to be comfortable.

Counter proposal: they recline by keeping the top in place and sliding forward to detract from your own leg room.

I had those, thought they were mediocre, but the family liked them.

Worst one I found was Oreo flavored cookies, which is to say cookies and cream flavored cookies.

It can be good at sifting through the top search results, but if people stop posting those questions because of AI where will the answers come from?

I’m going to steal Strong Bad’s idea here. https://homestarrunner.com/sbemails/149-candy-product

Blizzard used to always get my money. Activision-Blizzard can get bent.

I use it daily, but as a replacement for smart device integrations. For example, my alarm plays music while the lights come on to prevent me from going back to sleep. I used to do that with Google Home, now I do it with Music Assistant.

Are you drinking water with meals? I find washing something down, even a single chip, causes you to drink more than you could by itself.

Also, keep it at hand. A refillable bottle is worth investing in. If you like it ice cold, get a vacuum insulated vessel.

I want to be the reason the music goes silent

Wage theft is a crime, But it makes someone rich, and Then laws don’t apply.

I mean, a self contained LAN is still feasible. Data can be a transferred through an air-gapped method like flash drives, DVDs, blurays, etc. It would probably be largely fine for most things, just slower.

Of course, any long-distance communication method could be compromised. Cell towers would be a huge risk, radios could be unsafe, and even cameras could be a risk since they can see a long distance. The power grid could send signals in the minute voltage drops as things draw more power.

In short, we’re fucked and we can only pick the speed and intensity.

I have found almost all radio status near me play a mix of 12 songs and ads. Tuning in to any station was likely to result in ads and not music.

My radio is tuned to static so I can get into my car without being forced into hearing an ad while my Bluetooth connects and I can start playing a book.

A ton of smart buttons. Every time you do the task you push the button and a time helper is updated to the next date. If today is beyond that date, update a second boolean helper to show the task must be again!

Bonus if you set a light or alarm to go off of you forget to do it or a reward dispenser to drop treats when you complete the task!
