he also cheats in single player puzzle games

of course there is no way to definitely prove that, which was probably an intentional tactic, but certain puzzles he “solved” in “hours” took a whole community weeks to figure out (brute force was the only way) and there’s no way he’s just happened to guess the right answer

4 & 6

the thermometer is showing me scary numbers and i long for reverse hibernation (sleep until it’s cold enough to exist)

oh thank goodness. An image of students typing their notes with the on screen keyboard flashed in my mind and i was scared

please tell me they have those little external keyboards which would make them basically a shitty laptop

huh, i did not know there are more reasons for wearing socks than your feet being cold.

after a certain temperature i physically cannot wear socks as my feet get too hot. i either get to put on sandals, or i’ll take those full shoes and socks off in the middle of whatever bullshit forces them on me

oh sorry, let’s just politely ask the murderers to stop murdering for the 100th time today, maybe this time it will work!

huh! it’s spreading. i’d personally think it’d be rude to start before the scheduled time without everyone present

okay question because i don’t know if i’m out of touch with corporate culture or just not american- are you amarican?

because afaik in Europe it’d be considered rude to begin a meeting before a scheduled time, unless everyone who was supposed to be there is there and agrees that they’d like to start early

reading the summary, it doesn’t seem like the king even saw that slave girl, only her shoe delivered by an eagle

so prolly not those

but wouldn’t then people understand that the meeting has not yet begun? it’d be like a door opening at x:55 when the class starts at x+1:00, an open invitation to start gathering but the official start is in 5 minutes as scheduled

is gemini on all androids? i remember there once was something called bixby, now when i accidentally hold the home button for too long it tells me to enable “circle”. i’ve disabled all of those “smart” features but fuck knows what is going to get automatically installed in an update next week

just because the things you want aren’t on sale… doesn’t mean the sale doesn’t exist

the person who you only notice when they stop playing

lmao, their tourism is going to shrivel and die so fast

i mean, yeah?

the cookies you accept, the addons you have, hell, even the size of your monitor when you maximalise the window is a part of your browser fingerprint

anyone who’s ever downloaded the Tor browser will know it. that browser screams at you if you try to maximalise or install addons exactly because of that

hmm, i do wonder which causes which. Depression makes you prone to addictions as you seek anything to give you the happy chemicals. But constant social media exposure is rather harmful when you just take it all in, and that can cause depression Especially if you don’t block keywords for war coverages and politics.

i stand firm in my opinion that human brains are straight up not designed to take in a constant stream of bad news from around the world, which sucks because we are designed to focus on negatives for our survival. Memories of accidents and deaths take priority over nice memories so that we can avoid dangers better. from evolution’s point of view you being happy is an afterthought, you just need to live long enough to fuck. and across history it worked! we never had to distinguish between dangers nearby and dangers so far away it literally does not matter for you, as all news were brought by foot or with an otherwise huge time delay - they were either nearby or already history, and only one or two at a time. well, never… until today, and our neuroplasticity doesn’t seem to be enough to counter this, and evolution doesn’t work fast enough to fix this

Could also be a vicious cycle where if you trip and fall once both will create a negative synergy where you try to drown your sorrows in addictive doomscrolling, which only makes you worse

yeah people (myself included) like saying “sheeps” because it sounds cuter, it’s not “correct” english though, whatever that may be

true, but most European languages will pronounce it “ya-cht” and not… “yot”

hah same, it was the first thing i did after getting some emulators. and yeah the emulation gives some lag that’s normally not noticable, but in rhythm games that require perfect timing it can make the whole experience miserable

you can skip a bar without loosing fever :) take things one at a time!
