Mortality is a hard thing to get your head around. Try to not let it take over and keep doing the things you enjoy. Talk to some friends about it all. That should help get some perspectives. Don't be afraid of going to sleep. Sleep is cozy and good for you.

If there is"no point" then the point is to do the most good and have the most fun whilst you can.

I work in healthcare and often talk to people and families about the dying process. We tell people that dying is a lot like falling asleep and that hearing is the last sense to go. So even if they aren't awake and interacting anymore they are still aware of the people around them.

To me, dying is part of life, it's the big unknown. Everyone dies, you can't change that. What we can do is accept it and make the best life we can with the time we have. The point is enjoying the now. For me I focus on spending time with my wife and doing what good in the world I can do. I work with dying people a lot and if I can make even a few minutes of their time better I've made a difference that was worthwhile.

I've read, I think, 4 of these and thoroughly enjoyed them. I enjoy murderbot as a character and watching their personality develop over the books is great. My biggest issue is length and pricing, in the UK these are as expensive as full length books but are novellas at best. The quality remains high compared to the first book so the rest are worth a read if you can rent them or get them cheap.

Well damn. That's a pretty cool thing to do. Thanks for sharing.

Care to expand on that one? I know he's ex military but haven't heard anything like that before.

I'm not sure how this works if it's never turned off? Are you always evolving someone's head? Like 1 person in your line of sights head explodes per second or does everyone need you just get a headache?

I feel you bundley pain. I have: favourites, check in future/ early access, completed, currently paying, deck games, escape rooms, games for my wife to try, horror, humble games to try, local multiplayer, multiplayer, new need to try, played kinda sucked, puzzle, RPG, RTS, shooter, sofa games, VR games.

New need to try is for the humble bundle games I'm actually interested in and the humble games to try is for the ones which are just extras.

Less temptation and more gave in already. I got myself the ultimate edition of stalker 2. The first ones were some of my all time favourite games and I'm so glad the sequel got made I felt like they deserved my money. Have to say I'm very happy with my purchase and I look forward to the dlc in the future. The atmosphere is great and the gameplay is fun. I strongly recommend it.

The general measures of things like this are: is it causing a negative effect on you or others?

In a similar vein to pooping some people do every day, some twice or more, some a couple times per week. There's a range of normal. If it's not bothering you or anyone else it's probably fine. (Though see your Dr if you only poop once a week, something's weird there).

Buy micro to c converter and leave it plugged into the headset. Then you can keep the headset and charge it with whatever you got to hand.

Hell yeah it did. I spent 10 minutes sat on a bench not doing anything and it was some of the tensest and best gameplay I've had in a multiplayer game.

Humans have a really good digestive tract for getting nutrients out of food. So you take a lot of the mass of the food you eat and use it in your body as energy or building material. As such your poop has significantly smaller mass because it's made up of all the stuff you're body can't use after it's pulled out so the good bits.

As for dogs my understanding is they have a shorter digestive tract to allow them to eat the nasty stuff does seem to like without getting sick so they are probably less efficient at removing nutrients and poop more proportionally to what they eat.

It's basically just the south of France so kinda doable.

I really enjoyed my play through. It's a genuinely beautiful game.

That's good to hear. I got to play some of the prologue yesterday and hearing the PDA boop in the intro took me right back. I'm looking forward to being immersed in that atmosphere again.

I was waiting for stalker 2. Super psyched to play it this weekend. The first 3 are some of my all time favourite games.

Have you tried fallout London?

My wife and I stayed with her parents for Christmas this year. We had a lovely day with them and her granddad. Her mum made an excellent Christmas dinner.

It's traditionally a massive meal in the UK. Good could of days worth of calories.

Like green beans. Not baked.
