eighty

oof sounds like palace cinemas.

running is sometimes fun (the rush you get from beat your PB) and let’s you eat things that are delicious. I’m in a perpetual calorie debt because I run so much and I’m poor 😭

first rule of english pronunciation: there are no rules. All that matters is if people understand what you mean when you say it.

I gave up on this discussion when you have to consider gin, generate, giraffe, gene, gym, etc

Also I pronounce it with the soft sound because that’s what it sounds like in the bloody alphabet.

Jogging got me into eating regularly and destressor (I visualised as which is going to win - a 5k run or my mood/frustration).

if your anger wins, you finish the 5k in record time (next time go farther). Most of the time I just finish the run feeling less stressed and more able to tackle the issue with a clear mind without the mood.

Now I actually have legit reason to feel tired and friends/family look at me as an athlete for just doing 5k. There’s a lot of benefits but just make sure to go at your own pace/growth and not compare to others.

ymmv but I found walking around, having some water, and doing something menial task (cleaning up the room or dishes) and actively avoiding screens usually leads me to feel sleepy after 15-30 minutes…

Humans aren’t really designed for full 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep (nor 16 hours of full wakefulness but I’m fortunate enough that I can take naps in the afternoon) so don’t be hard on yourself if one happens to wake up in the middle of the night. It’s natural (like afternoon naps).The biggest issue is screens/activities that are designed to keep you alert and a societal lifestyle that demands a strict wake-sleep cycle.

I really dislike being reductive so take what I say with a grain of salt:

I am not surprised that the people who regularly buy the COD series with all of it’s monetary practices for the past decade are asking to buy a feature. They’d be more shocked if you could features/updates/qol without buying it. Habituation, de-sensitisation, whatever - they’re the whales that fuel the decline in AAA games.

Similar situation. I quickly glance between Lemmy and Mastodon and only use old.reddit when I’m on my PC (just realised I hadn’t really used it since I’ve been making an effort to engage with the manga communities on lemmy) . All my friends and favourite artists seem to use Instagram so I only use it out of necessity for messaging and quick inspirations (I tried using Cara but I found the app somewhat slow and disliked that it wasn’t federated, so I could see it having a very low lifespan. I saw it as a poor move for artists to move to it solely on the promise of being “anti-AI” without any redundancies that a de-federated option would have)

There was a mass exodus of Escapist writers (including Yahtzee) and formed Second Wind. Been watching a lot more of their stuff since they left the Escapist outside of Yahtzee

I want to avoid using Fandom as much as possible, is there a singular index that tracks all of the non-fandom wikis?

I initially agreed with you but after watching the demo, it has some game-related features that I’d imagine would be hard to implement in other applications such as:

• Choosing the length of looping songs from 15, 30, to and hour which is ideal for background music.
• Spoiler Free options where you can choose certain games to avoid being recommended/listen to.

Don’t have Nintendo Online (only got it for Splatoon 3) but this product should’ve come out years ago when they introduced Nintendo Online.

I see you. I get thrown off when my liked playlist is shuffled or songs go missing. The world is chaotic and I just want consistency.

I respect they chose Lady Geist to show off the glitch
