It's not a game I ended up playing a lot, but during the pandemic one person I know gifted me a copy of Among Us, and kept insisting I play with him and his friends. I was reluctant at first because I've never had good experiences with multiplayer games, but I ended up having a great time. They were on Discord with mics, but I was text-only, and it was funny hearing them when I was the Impostor. When they all went to bed, I continued playing with some randoms for a few more hours, and also had a great time, some were sad when I decided to finally leave.

Just a suggestion. You might want to look into getting a decent chair and foot support first. Something like a cushioned office chair, the more "executive" looking ones, where even the arm support is cushioned.

Sit at your current desktop with what you currently have, and write down all the measurements that feel comfortable to you. More important: floor-to-butt, butt-to-head, and butt-to-elbow, width of chair (space between elbows). Whatever chair you get, make sure your head and arms are supported. With that, you can look for a good office chair that fits your particular measurements.

The leg-foot support, if it doesn't exist for your measures, can easily be done with wood.

I had this stuff done, and nowadays I "lounge" on my desktop. I tried the handheld way, and ended up hating it. The couch makes me lean forward, my arms can't hold the device for long, and most of the games I play look too small on the screen.

Yeah, pretty much. The only thing keeping me interested in the stories after they reach that point is lore, but even that starts getting convoluted eventually.

Thanks a lot! I didn't know this had a name. Funny enough, all the shows named there are the ones I was thinking of.

A lot of shows that begin with a mystery or quest to find a certain character or place, and then they find it in the first season finale... when season two starts, you realize whoever came up with it had no idea where to go from there.

I didn't know until now.

Ross Duffer went as far as calling it more of an anthology situation, revealing that, as far as the show's spin-offs will go, "They’re going to live in a bit of a different world. There’s going to be connective tissue, but you’re almost anthologizing in a way. Because we’re not Star Wars. We can’t be like, ‘Oh, now we’re on this planet.’”

That would be for the best. Their biggest mistake was trying to follow the same characters and "explaining" stuff.

Hopefully it means the entire spin-off is an anthology, and not just that they'll have a whole new cast of characters that they'd follow for seasons, but it's not connected to the original show.

In contrast, the show Tales from the Loop does a good job of not explaining things to the audience. Something like that would be great.

I feel like I'm the only one who understood your question, and sadly I don't live in either country, so I can't say.

I do recall that when I switched from Diet Coke to Coke Zero (for some reason there was a shortage of Diet but not Zero), it took me a while to get used to it because Zero tastes way sweeter.

Also, shout out to the female player character version of the game: Harvest Moon: More Friends of Mineral Town

The last time I tried it, it was a whole different manager that kept its own database of profiles, and didn't work with parameters. So if you had a dock shortcut with a menu to open different profiles (as in GNOME), or used a custom system-wide keyboard shortcut or mouse gesture to open different profiles, this didn't work because it needed to run firefox -P "profile" and it opened a whole different profile.

The article here doesn't specify if this is still a problem, and instead talks as if Firefox never had a profile manager. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I'm on beta 145 with the new PM disabled, so hopefully we'll still get the option to use the old school PM.

No, we're humans having conversations.

Also, we need to recreate tipofmytongue, because it was a really good sub, where people could ask stuff like this and get answers pretty quickly.

I don't get it. Can I tell it to move a file from one folder to the other? Can I ask it to give me a diff of two folders? Or tell me if files are missing from one folder? Can it keep a sync between folders? Last time I checked, it only answered a bunch of simple questions.

What can this thing do that they keep trying to push it so bad?

GoT was "torn to shreds" because it rushed the story, butchered the characters and the lore, put all the dumb memes on screen, and did so in 6 episodes that we had to wait a whole year for (back then we had a new season every year). And I blame GRRM as much as D&D. If he had written the books on time, D&D would have had more concrete material (they could have adapted The Vale and Lady Stoneheart, but I'm being generous).
