And it’s fucking disgusting

Oh dang, I thought this was social media lingo like “trauma dumping”. The guy wrote a book and the wikipedia entry brutally points out right in the introduction that there’s no evidence for any of this.

“The Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate is a 1992 nonfiction book by Baptist pastor Gary Chapman. It outlines five general ways that romantic partners express and experience love, which Chapman calls “love languages”. Empirical evidence does not strongly support its core claims.”

I’m belly laughing at this and my kid is asking why in laughing. Don’t know how to explain this.

I still follow some webcomics and search for things occasionally on Reddit. Using Redlib has been fantastic. Don’t need to worry about their interface changes. Don’t need to worry about having an account. Just input the few subscriptions I need into the Redlib docker container. All my devices are setup to redirect Reddit links to my Redlib deployment.

Anna Karenina principle

“for success to occur in a complex endeavor, all key factors must be present and work correctly. The endeavor does not succeed when even one essential element is missing, meaning there are many different ways to fail”

Having reliable standby is a huge deal.

I already play some indie games on my Retroid Pocket 5 with Game Native, but I’ve almost abandoned using it for short bisects of gaming because waking from sleep will mostly shut down the game.

Everyone uses their phones while eating or pooping. Those activities don’t take long either. I choose to listen to something while showering.

It’s ok if you don’t understand it or do it yourself, but some people take their phone into the shower. It is a thing.

1. Silksong

2. Dead Cells or Hades… Can’t decide

3. Final Fantasy 10 (I’m expecting Expedition 33 to replace this as top RPG when I get round to making time to play it)

4. StarCraft 2

5. Control

I do it all the time. Before smart phones were a thing I had a water proof shower radio. Now I use the phone for the same thing. Mostly listening to news or a podcast or something. Sometime it’s a Nebula video, but in the shower I’d just be listening to it like a podcast anyway. Before phones were waterproof I used to use a waterproof Bluetooth speaker.

I’ve never had steam cause a problem, but then again my showers aren’t long, aren’t very hot and my phone is kept pretty high up and out of the way.

Forgot to include the Blue Tit

Thanks. Wishlisted. Video makes it look like it’s exactly my kinda game.

I fail Captchas enough to make me think that maybe I am a bot.

“It all started the day I was born and then things went rapidly downhill from there.”

I have previously come across a white appearing woman with a white appearing husband and a mixed race black appearing baby. The woman used this to argue that the reason their baby is half black is because she had a black great grandparent. The husband accepted this logic.

you are more profitable than OpenAI

I’ve got mortgage debt though.

Ballionnaire

Roguelites are my weakness. This is so dumb and simple. I just enjoy finding synergies that get ge breaking scores.

Even while I’m trying to get to Silksong act 3 right now, I still keep jumping back to Ballionnaire.

5 years before even thinking if I need to change. Mostly longer than that as long as it holds up well. We’re well past the point of any meaningful upgrades in hardware. A flagship phone should last anyone a really long time.

Degoogling usually doesn’t happen in one go. Even if she isn’t at the point of buying another phone that can run Graphene OS, it is still worth Degoogling the other services she uses.

The hero I aspire to be.

Cat behaviour has long been very well documented. If you get a Cat that attacks you, that’s on you man.
