While clothing slides at exhilarating speed over a metal slider, sticky sweaty skin will instantly and firmly grip to it. You do NOT want to initiate thigh skin contact in the middle of a descent.

Open source money? Why not just call it crypto so everyone understands what this is about?

The beading of the water on the leaves is impressive. Thanks for that photo!

Such dogs are very useful for zootherapy with acutely isolated coders as they can be slid under a locked office door as a means of initiating an intervention.

I’ve been playing Etrian Odyssey 3 HD and I’m enjoying it. It’s a lovely blobber with an interesting take on mapping. You can choose between full, minimal or no automapping. I’m playing with minimal automapping and I’m rediscovering the joys of mapping a dungeon crawl, a thing which I thought I was officially done with. At “normal” the difficulty is just right for me. I’m particularly enjoying the total absence of brutally obtuse puzzles, a staple of western RPGs for some reason. Only downside is the fan service some of the art suffers from, a staple of JRPGs for some reason.

Feel the same. My switch is collecting dust and I just don’t feel like touching the backlog there. The fleeting nature of a console is depressing.

No. I came here for a nice place and I’m uninterested in instances that Beehaw defederated from and in banned users.

I subscribed to basically every Beehaw community plus some communities from federated instances, and I browse by “'Subscribed”.

More activity would always be cool, but I don’t miss doomscrolling through reposts and trolls on other platforms either so.

What a beauty! What was its size? I can’t get a sense of scale from it 😅

I was more thinking about the “proper response” part, as an example.

It’s a vague statement. Enormous wiggle room. I think there’s a valuable idea somewhere in there about reflecting on the root of a problem, but the conclusion is overly fatalist. It’s OK to hold someone accountable even though they are part of something bigger.

No, .com is not meant as commercial anymore and it was always open to everybody. No matter how easy the domain resellers are making it, picking TLDs has some implications: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Internet_top-level_domains

The .io TLD has been the subject of controversy for a number of years despite (or because it is?) being hijacked by tech.

EDIT: More about it

Just please don’t be smart ass and choose a non relevant top-level domain because it looks cute. .io is for the British Indian Ocean Territory. .af is for Afghanistan. queer.af actually got taken down by the talibans.

.com and .org are both open TLDs and totally fine. If you’re afraid to be understood as organization, you can go for .com. It’s the default of the web by now.

If your service can be understood as some kind of web application, you could look into .app as well.

Siralim Ultimate is a very special monster collector. The sheer amount of everything is delightfully overwhelming, the depth is nonsensical and the grind is real. I love it.

I have played some of the Avernum games. In my opinion it’s peak Jeff Vogel. If you’re fine with the graphics, you’re in for excellent writing, nicely done non linear exploration and original world building.

Right?! I freaked on the same paragraph. Most depressing thing ever said about game dev. These suits would rather fire everyone and play stonks all day if it earned a dime more. I’m so mad for the massive creative force being crushed by this broken system.

Diversity: it’s good for everybody! Also, it’s wise to get used to being taught new things by younger people, lest we become stuck in the past *shudders*.

Congrats! Hopefully your next boss realizes the delay you’re asking for is a small price to pay for hiring someone who cares.
