Okay. But legit. Frosted Mini Wheats are the best, especially when you get them in that state where they’re like just slightly soft, but not soggy either

I’m not sure what it’s called, buy I love the trope of where a large party gets split off into two smaller parties who eventually reunite. This split could be forced through physical events or it could just be a relationship split between friends.

Lord the Rings is a great example of what I mean. Frodo is forced to leave after seeing what the Ring does and Sam goes with him, while Mary and Pippin get kidnapped and have their own adventure, and finally Aragorn and his merry trio go help the war effort in Rohan. They all end up reunited in the end though.

I’d kill to be able to help teach my peers just once. Department politics have been a blight on clubs though

I’m Vice President of a computer science club for my Community College and i feel this exact same issue. The people above me run it like it’s a training center for a job. There’s no aspect behind it besides business and business connections. It’s something i desperately wish i could change

That’s weird on the windows speeds. I believe mine is a 4.0x4 too and I got full speeds on everything. Id have to assume it’s a Windows issue though

I had a 1 TB one I used for the longest time. My only complaint is that it never played well with any of my Linux devices (Steam Deck randomly decided it was done reading it and I had to unplug it and my Bazzite device just locks up)

Fuck it, 30 second sketch too.

Watching Doctor Who is such a treat. Where are you at? The 12th is one of my favorite runs

Thank you for sharing, I’m saving this to try for later. I don’t usually have an issue with Kale. But this sounds to good to pass up

Growing up I struggled for so long on LittleBigPlanet’s Negativitron boss fight, most recently though I spent days struggling with Uncharted 4’s final boss fight (though somehow I had an easier time on Crushing difficulty on my second play through) and Halo 2’s Prophet Boss Fight.

I had a friend who was in the same boat. I know this ignores what you’re saying, but I’m going to share this in hopes that somehow this can help you anyways. the best way we got him off of them was by getting him out of the house and just interacting with the world. Taking him to group activities, introducing him to new people, stuff like that. However you get through this, i wish you luck though

So kind of like proton, except for multiple platforms and in the source code instead?

California here. We’re being raided by fires right now

Man. I love The Kinks. Awesome band

I use Mlem. It’s pretty good. My only complaints are that it doesn’t do Spoilers. I don’t know if other clients do this too, but Mlem doesn’t do push notifications either from what I can tell, which I like

I’ll have to look into getting a Ubiquiti once my Airport finally bites the dust because there are some QOL features I’d like to have. I’m starting to think that my airport will never die though

Probably just me coping, but I’m hoping this leads to the return of Airports. I still have an Airport Extreme I use for my router. Having one that can do proper mesh though would be a god send, and having Wi-Fi 6 support would be awesome along with a newer SMB standard for the Time Capsule.

I grew up in the Southern/Midwest U.S., and a large part I don’t miss, but I find myself missing the small town culture. I liked being able to know almost everybody there

It’s hard for me to do that too. I found setting regular reminders for it on my phone helped, at least once I get over that initial hump of forming a pattern, then it just becomes a simple “oh. Today’s my day to run laundry”. Of course, if I break that habit it becomes hard again, but it does help a lot. But also I’m no psychologist, so for all I know it could be a case by case basis

This is how I like to think about it. There’s so many cool things I haven’t gotten to experience, both natural and man-made. Giving up would mean I never get to see them and appreciate them.
