This is what I assumed,but if it helps in any other way, I’m happy to wishlist more games from small time developers.
I use likes and subs liberally on apps like YouTube or TikTok, even if I wouldn’t normally want to subscribe. It costs me nothing to do and gives someone else joy. Why wouldn’t I?
Eh, it messes up my algorithm but I don’t care. These Corporations know too much about me anyway, might as well give them a curveball.
Does Wishlisting a game help the developer in anyway other than indicating excitement for a game?
I’d love to know if there an any incentive to interacting with a game’s store page other than buying a game, obviously.
If Steam gives a bonus for that kind of thing, I’m going to be a lot more generous with my clicks.
Aliens.
Alien is good too but Aliens is damn near perfect for me.
Idk what the heck James Cameroon is doing now but, Avatar just didn’t land in the same way to me.
I see a lot of commenters really hate Apple, but to clarify, the manual isn’t what’s important here.
According the article, the manuals indicate that the iPhone 16 is actually easier to repair. This is good news for consumers, independent repair shops, and the environment.
You can use a 9-volt battery to remove adhesive and they’ve added more support for Face-ID when replacing the LIDAR sensor.
We still have a long way to go for our right to repair but, the pressure that we put on companies and governments to make change is working. We should celebrate that.
Same. I’m surprised it hasn’t happened yet
Mine downsized a bit too but that didn’t stop RTO either.
BonziBuddy! I had completely erased that from my brain. Whoa!
It 100% shrunk. That image is misleading
No advice but for what it’s worth, I’m doing the same thing at work now. Just wanted you to know I relate. Sorry your job sucks. I hope you find another soon
The thing that I see most is that AI is dumb and can’t do it yet so we don’t need to worry about this.
To me, it’s not about whether it can or not. If the people in charge think it can, they’ll stop hiring. There is a lot of waste in some big companies so they might not realize it’s not working right away.

This is exactly what my neighbor stopped me to tell me recently. About bringing in immigrants to vote and what not. I tried to tell him none of that information is true and show him where and why, but it’s really hard to do without making them dig further into their position.
Anne they are now conditioned believe that any media that doesn’t align with them is fake.
How do you choose? I always loved Teen Girl Squad.
This company is does a cool thing. I saw them on Adam Savage’s YouTube last year. Any product they scan, is uploaded to their site. Any person can launch the web app and look at the scans of the things they’ve scanned. You can view the full images in all dimensions.
A few years ago I chose to stop thinking about it. I just refill the roll and don’t worry about it. When I realized it didn’t matter, it was a weight lifted off my shoulders. Same with trying to stop the gas pump on the nearest dollar or setting the tv volume to an even number.
I don’t know why I felt such a relief when I let go, but I did and now I’m free!
I personally just use a pw manager. If I used them system myself, the alphabet words would probably be strings of characters that aren’t real words and I’d probably salt them too. But yeah I imagine you could run into size limits, which is a problem.
I just wanted to share a pw strategy that seemed interesting. I used a simple pattern to make the concept easier to understand.
This is a method I heard once for remembering random passwords that I thought was clever.
Create your own alphabet of words (or random characters). A is for Apple, B is for Boy, C is for Cat…etc.
For every letter in the URL, you use the word from your alphabet. Ex:
F = Fog, A = Apple, C = Cat, E = Egg, B = Boy, O = Off, O = Off, K = Kite
Next, you need a number if you didn’t use one in your alphabet.
Facebook is 8 letters long so I might use 8. Or only letters repeated once. Or maybe you use the whole URL. Up to you, but you do it the same way for every site. You create a patter that you follow and can remember, rather than remembering every password.
Need a symbol? Assign that to the top level domain. In my example, .com = # .edu = ? .org = * etc
Put it all together and my example password would be “8FogAppleCatEggBoyOffOffKite#”.
A password for google.com might be ‘6GolfOffOffGolfLogEgg#’.
Obviously, you don’t have to do it this exact way with the alphabet, number, and symbol. The idea is that you create a set of rules that you remember and follow. If you write down “A = Apple B = Boy…” and someone finds it, it won’t be instantly obvious that it is meant for passwords.
Mixed feelings about this too. I want to know that a prescriber is taking it seriously, but also, making a doctors appointment is surprisingly really hard for me to do. I don’t mean because of a busy schedule. I meant it is just really difficult for some neurodivergent people to do things that other people can do easily.
Online treatment has made it more accessible for people like me and I may not have sought treatment otherwise.
Thanks. That’s something I hadn’t thought of.
I’m sort of more moderate when it comes to paying Google to access YouTube. I’m happy to pay for products that I use. I want Google and creators to be rewarded for services rendered, but the prices are double what they should be.
I’m one of the people who used the VPN to get Premium at an affordable rate even though I have Ublock and know about other options.
My Premium account did get canceled. I was able to sign back up via another location, but if they push me out again, I would just revert to adblockers.
I suspect other users who signed up with a VPN are like me. We are the few who know how to get around the ads but want to pay, if we can. Just a guess though.
You wouldn’t even make the top ten richest people in the world list.
