I still think the PS2 had the best looking and at the time most radical design. 1 was cool and iconic. 3 was just ugly. 4 ok, The current design looks cool but is extremely impractical.

Of Nintendo I liked the European SNES, Gameboy Color and DS Lite. N64 is dear to my heart but it was not good looking and the controller was horrendous.

So it doesn’t exactly fit but the first job I got after my training was, as I found out later, just a stand-in for someone else who had more experience but couldn’t join until about a month or two later. So I was supposed to be fired during probation once he joined. My coworker, who was already unhappy with his job, found out about it and quit right before the arrival of the other guy to make room for me (my hero!). So I took his place and my boss was stuck with me being there. A few months later my (new) coworker and me (and a few others) quit at around the same time because it became unbearable to work at this place.

I started the tradition with my parents and brother of saving money over the year for charity. We put up a jar at my parents house and whenever we visit and have money to spare (which for me is a fixed amount that I put aside every month), it goes into the jar. On christmas the money is split evenly among us and everyone tells which cause/organization they are going to donate their part to.

The jar thing is not ideal because I rarely have cash on me so I always have to go to the bank first and then when it’s time to donate, the cash money has to go back into the bank. But it’s nice to look at and it doesn’t tell exactly how much is in it from a glance, so it’s a bit of a mystery until Christmas. I might propose to go digital for next year though.

I hated every second of it and it’s ugly as hell. Factorio is king.

(Trolling because Op is so super sensitive about it)

Based on your most listened, maybe try Little Simz, clipping, Fantasic Negrito (Album: Last Days of Oakland)

For something maybe a little outside the box I recommend The Books, Gramatik, Pretty Lights, Cosmo Sheldrake

Educate yourself about what smoking does to your body. Imagine it on every inhale. Make yourself really hate it. Set a specific end date in the near future (but keep it to yourself, you don’t need outside pressure). In the meantime continue thinking about how much you hate smoking. Then stop cold turkey.

If you miss smoke breaks with others at work or whatever, just keep hanging out with them but don’t smoke. If they ask about it, don’t say you are trying to stop, say you did stop.

1. Sure, if it’s just a bare link in the comments I understand, but as a post with the original video title and usually an autogenerated thumbnail, I don’t see a problem.
2. The YT descriptions are not shown in the list of videos and rarely contain a summary of the video.

I’m sorry, I don’t get what the true purpose was.

I wouldn’t mind switching to alternative libraries like Svelte or Solid but can’t imagine going back to plain Javascript for complex applications. It’s a pain in the ass, even with jQuery.

Here's video without text summary

I really don’t get why people get so upset about that. We don’t get summaries on Youtube either but still watch the videos.

iPhones are not turned on for 8+ hours straight though.

But if Apple is doing it they probably figured this out.

A little pressure is great. Too little and I become unorganized and perfectionistic. Too much and I become very unfriendly to my coworkers and constantly make mistakes.

Last I learned about some local plants (like the stinging nettle) and which part is edible and most energy dense.

I remember because it was my first PC that I got for myself. I was an intern at a small computer repair shop and that's where I learned how to build computers.

Before that I only played on my parents PC and afterwards I switched to Mac.

Shoes. They might fit in the store, they might fit at home when I walk around with them for 5-10 minutes, but once I take them outside and they get dirty, suddenly it hurts everywhere.

If it’s so easy why are less and less games released for Mac? There used to be a surge of new games, when Steam added Mac support, but then it dropped and now it feels like no dev cares anymore.

Cyberpunk was just announced.

The problem is Apple is chasing after individual games to be released for Mac instead of fixing the underlying issue that developing for Mac is too expensive. Every year they proudly announce one or two new AAA games and meanwhile hundreds of new games were released on every other platform and I just want more indie titles. What is their end goal? I don’t understand.

I played once on PS4 (yes the one they had to pull from the store) and when the DLC was released I replayed everything on PS5. I had a great time and was doing even more sidequests than before. Wouldn’t mind going back in to 100% it, but there are just too many other games.

Even if it’s not a big deal, it’s a form over function decision and I was hoping Apple is over that by now.
