  • Earlier this year, I decided to engage with social media, so I searched for lists of social media websites and signed up on the ones I could find. Lemmy was on one of the lists and also happens to be one of the websites I enjoy the most! πŸ˜ƒ

  • No. I only use my phone to make calls or send texts.

  • If you want to, yes. When I see them I try and buy them some food. I also give to the local charities which support them.

  • -20 ΒΊC winters have entered the chat

  • Do burgers count? πŸ˜ƒ If yes, whatever you want to call this burger that's in a drawing I'm doing:

    Basically a cheeseburger except with the melty cheese, with fries and ketchup added πŸ”

  • As others have said 256 GB really isn't very much if you're going to play modern AAA games on it. I got ARK on my computer which is around 200 GB and a lot of AAA games nowadays are at least a couple dozen GB, with some in the hundreds. It can be annoying having to pick and choose which games to wipe to free up space, so just a heads up!

  • Can confirm the thing about failing HDD's. Both of mine are failing but one is significantly worse than the other, things fail in certain parts, like entire folders, or just a few corrupt files. When I've had flash drives go bad it's catastrophic (which is why I have like five of them oop)

  • My friends, family, drawing, having a nice home to live in, good food and fun stuff to do ❀️ I try and avoid negativity by searching for things I'm interested in to engage with, such as art, nature photography, cat photos, and videogames. Some websites let you tailor your feed to your liking!

  • Made fun of me because of my nationality.

  • I was surprised when I learned that Pikmin 3 is often disliked or even hated. It's shamelessly my fave game of the series. I get that the story is shorter than it should be and it's more linear but it has this charm that's unmatched, and I enjoy the graphics style so much that it inspired several facets of my artstyle even. Also the mission mode is just the right difficulty and a ton of fun!

  • To be happy and enjoy things, and to make others happy in return! ❀️😌

  • Nope, one had suicidal ideation because of being harassed by people, the other because of an abusive relationship.

  • When I was 11 my dad allowed me to drive. It was a quiet road down a forested mountain at night, and I learned two things:

    My dad trusted me enough to drive down this mountain road at night, and driving a car is surprisingly easy

  • I talked two people out of suicide. I guess you could call that manipulative, but in a good way.

  • CHONKUS

    Jump
  • Chonkus sounds like the name of a videogame boss.

    You beat the "chonky" cyanobacteria. You think you're safe and you're going to use all that EXP on upgrading your armor, then suddenly you're greeted to a gigantic health bar which takes up the entire width of the screen, with the name "CHONKUS" above it.

    Boss music plays

  • Not to mention there are many natural sources of fluoride which can contain greater concentrations of it than what is in tap water. The ocean has a concentration of fluoride that is in the range of 1.2 to 1.4 ppm, compared to the standard rate of fluoride of drinking water, which is 0.5–1 ppm

    edit: I didn't say that people drink ocean water, my point was about the ubiquitous nature of fluoride. The majority of life lives in the ocean, so if fluoride really was as toxic as some people say it is, there would be a lot less life on Earth. There are many lakes and other water sources that people have been drinking from for ages which naturally contain higher amounts of fluoride than what is in fluoridated tap water.

  • Oh I know about Paint Tool SAI 2, the version I'm using is 1.1.0 of SAI 1, which is pretty ancient haha.

  • For drawing, definitely Paint Tool SAI! When I began drawing digitally, a friend gifted me two programs for me to use, Illustrator and Paint Tool SAI. I ended up settling on the latter. It is a very old program that got released in 2008, but it is lightweight, fast, stable, and has really good blending and pen stabilization options!
