I think I’m good on that so far, but I’ll be sure to keep it aired out and clean. Thanks for telling me that. I hadn’t even thought about fungus.

That seems so insecure. I wish governments cared more about the effects of data theft on individuals.

IMO, I would rate them: ME1 Andromeda ME2 ME3

The original Mass Effect was great, a classic, but 2 and 3 had less and less of what I’d loved about the first game. By the time I got to 3, I was playing because I felt invested in the story and characters, not because I found the gameplay enjoyable. Andromeda wasn’t quite as enjoyable as ME1 to me, mostly because I didn’t connect with the characters as much, but the story was surprising and original, fights were exciting, and the gameplay had a lot of interesting new elements that made the scenario feel immersive. It’s really too bad that so many people didn’t like it.

The beginning of the game is really bleak, but it makes the scenario of trying to colonize a lifeless planet feel all the more real IMO. After you meet aliens and start terraforming planets, it starts to be more what people wanted out of it, I think.

I’m surprised. He didn’t come across this way to me on Github, or in group chats and interviews he’s done. I want to say that, as a non-American, maybe he doesn’t know the kind of things Trump has done here, but then it seems like everyone knows what Trump has done here.

That’s what I’ve heard. I had a client who started looking into moving there during the first Trump presidency. He had a friend who moved there. Said the economy wasn’t quite as strong as in the US, but a lower crime rate and very friendly people. And the plants and animals there look amazing!

Haha. Well, I hope you get it worked out. Have you used PopOS before?

Am I understanding this right? It’s Linux installed to a remote server and then streamed to the desktop?

That’s great news!

I like the sound of this.

Good to know. I think I maybe logged into webmail once, years ago, but I don’t care about any of the info listed here.

The couple of times I’ve had it, last year and I think the year before, it felt very similar to strep. Not like razor blades, but like my throat was so swollen, it was difficult and painful to swallow anything, including my own saliva. Biggest difference was that the Covid made me super tired, as well.

Very pretty, and spot on.

I think you can’t message people who are offline, right? I’ve used it before, and like the idea, but both people having to be signed it at the same time wouldn’t work that well for me & my contacts, since we’re in different time zones.

No reason why the forks can’t continue their own independent development. If they do disappear, I guess I’ll use a webkit-based browser, or maybe a Gemini browser that also does http.

Nothing wrong with preferring something you’re familiar with and know meets your needs. I enjoy trying out new programs, but I end up using whatever meets my needs the best whether it’s new or old.

I like the kind that’s springy mesh stretched over a frame. The exact brand isn’t that important. They’re so much more comfortable to sit in for long periods compared to solid chairs, to me.

That makes sense. I hope the people who would’ve come here find someplace nice to go. I’ve heard good things about Costa Rica.

I like Sakura. It’s lightweight.

I got on Compuserve in the library I worked at when there was nothing that needed to be done. Had to put a disc in to run the software. It was black & white. I mostly just chatted with random people.
