eighty

VA sound amazing!

nodding head agreeingly forreal forreal forreal

what is making appointments?

that’s my boi Reigen from Mob Psycho 100. OP is a weeb 👍

honestly, it’s for it to decide (As a human I’d whisper stay the course, hands are overrated and gave me taxes)

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.

Sounds good - it’s important to get those 8 hours and listening to your body (avoiding screens when you can during dark hours since that’ll fuck around your circadian rhythm).

Sometimes you can get away with 6 hours in total if you haven’t been overexerting yourself. I found that I slept like 9 -10 hours uninterrupted after exhaustive days but taking the naps and ensuring I have good sleep hygiene leads to me feel great with only 8 segemented sleep.

9 to 5 sucks ass.

You gotta listen to your body and take that powernap when you can (already made a previous comment about how the human body isn’t built to do strict wake-sleep cycles, it’s natural to have 2 separate sleeps in the same night, and historically people from early morning to noon since the sun is too harsh by then). I generally found taking a 15 minute nap after a meal is enough to get me through the rest of the day. Though it’s insane that corpos expect anything more than 60% effort after 2pm when most have been up since 6am.

Take your hours back, they won’t give it back to you.

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 respect they chose Lady Geist to show off the glitch
