ELI5 I noticed cornstarch in each of the sauces listed here, what purpose does it serve?

Reader mode is great, though I’ve seen some sites that seem to have taken deliberate steps to make their articles unviable with it by making all the text disappear as soon as you turn it on

Just finished playing Outer Wilds for the first time- definitely one of the most incredible games I’ve ever played

Ohhh yeah still haven’t played that one, I’ve heard so many good things about it though

I’ve only played Nintendo games on-and-off but the last truly special innovation I can remember to the Mario formula was the Super Mario Galaxy games. I can’t recall anything else like it that they’ve done recently

Sadly, using small niche VPNs that might be more trusted makes you stand out more.

This probably doesn’t matter does it? Because being spotted as a mulvad, airvpn, etc user doesn’t make you more of a target for anything.

I’m just taking a stab at this since I’m not entirely certain, but I would think that this would weaken you against fingerprinting since it depends on having many different semi-unique characteristics as you browse?

Honestly itch.io has plenty of free indie gems that can last me just as long as throwing $80 at a AAA game. I’d rather donate/tip after the fact for genuine well-crafted experiences

Don’t know if this fits the bill for you or not but my partner occasionally falls into the clutches of the Sims on their laptop. They’ve customized their installation with lots of outfit + hairstyle mods and expansions, so you kinda get to make it your own

I have to believe that this factor is equally to blame

Never heard of Tutanota mail, anyone here know anything about it?

I want to dump Adobe very badly but it’s still the industry standard for creative firms everywhere

Sick map of the Wheel of Time world! I’m still working my way through the fourth book in the series

I’m OOTL on the news around this device, but if the joysticks that they install in the thing are just as shitty as the joysticks that they put in current Xbox controllers then there’s no chance I’d even consider buying one

Gotta be Wii for me for the reasons you suggested. Great atmosphere and level design

But something about playing long, grinding balloon battles on DS with 7 other people on the school bus will always stick with me

Did you stop to consider the principles of why people feel that way?

I am not interesting

I’m Gen-Z too. To some extent I agree with other people on here that, for broader discussions about certain topics, it doesn’t really matter what age you are in order to contribute to the conversation, which I feel is one of the strengths of this format of social media.

I also agree with you too that it doesn’t feel like there’s a space carved out by others from our generation on the fediverse yet. Growing up in such a dramatic period of technological change and global turmoil is something that we all have in common and has fundamentally affected our perspectives and our personal identities. I’d love to be a part of a community if you or anyone decides to begin cultivating one.
