Reading this and the other admins replies has given me a proper little boost this morning. Thank you for the transparency, it won't always be good news like this but I value it anyway

On day 8 out of 8 in a row at work. Got 3 days off starting tomorrow and Cities Skyline 2 to dig into.
Pretty sure this is already the system used in London. Works fine for high frequency routes and for drivers that only do the same route all day one after another. Doesn't work for low frequency routes or drivers that do different routes throughout the day
Thank you for keeping on top of this Chris. I'm having a heavy week at work and I've not kept up with what's working and what isn't so your updates have been invaluable.
When I've got some days off I'm probably going to spin up a viewtube or invidious instance on either my home server or VPS and have done with it!
Much better than expect. This has been the first year where we've had someone outside of our immediate family join us (my brother's girlfriend) and it's been very pleasant.
Going to start working my way through the Christmas ales I've been saving now!
Thank you for verbalising this, I've been feeling similarly. Like you I try to go back to the sources and read them often finding that the danger is being sensationalised by the media. Recently though I've seen a few papers where the findings have been much worse than is being reported and that worries me very much. I'm mostly able to only worry about things I have control over as others have suggested but the oncoming climate crisis is so encompassing and existential that I'm finding it hard to temper my worries.
Yes, discovering I'm aroace and not broken was brilliant. It gives me permission to live how I want and not feel like I'm missing out.
Yes. Not taking into account anything except the output of the laser verses the output of the reaction.
What you are talking about is the "split attraction model" it's very helpful for the asexual and aromantic community when describing ourselves. It absolutely applies to people who experience attraction too.
As someone who is an environmentalist and works in the bus industry this really heartens me. Public transit really needs to step up it's game in response to climate change and I'm excited for that.
Yes, I never finished BOTW because of the size, same for Skyrim and although I'm excited for Cities: Skylines 2 I'm also a bit intimidated by the scale of it and learning all the new tools again!
Omg, they have an arm Linux version. That's going right on my Chromebook tomorrow!
I'm enjoying it. I've remembered that I'm terrible at building cities, but I'm having fun while coming to that realization again! Performance is mid 50fps with about 5000 people at 1080p with a 2080 super and a ryzen 3600x.
In fairness, games are still something I'm willing to pay for and books. I think probably because Kindle and Steam are better user experiences than pirating those.
I work in a bus control room. The word "quiet" is banned because as soon as someone says it things invariably kick off
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!
For me learning I was aroace was hugely freeing, realising I could just opt out of the whole dating mess
Good lord there's a lot of unpleasantness there, thank you admins! o-o
I did a bit of the mining and trading gameplay wipe before last. Haven't gone back since but I likely will.
I turned down a few graphic settings but honestly thoughly playable. Looking forward to performance patches so I can turn some of the eye candy back on
Surprised how far down I had to look for Postmodern Jukebox to show up!
I use this BBC food one. Nothing fancy but flavour developed nicely if you prove it for 2hrs+. Cold proving in the fridge overnight also does wonders to it

Edit: scrap that, it calls for bread flour not whole
"Nextcloud is a can of worms" is an understatement. I keep talking myself into and out of trying to install it. I just don't have the time at the moment to troubleshoot it when something inevitably breaks.
Jesus Christ that hit hard, also nearly gave me a cry!
I've got a campaign I'm running, started with Lost Mines is Phandelver which then rolled into Wild Beyond the Witchlight and will roll into Storm King's Thunder. In that campaign our rogue/warlock's patron is an archfey who is the reason they are now in Prismeer. We have a dwarf cleric who is very mistrusting of the fey which is a really interesting roleplay dynamic and a fighter/barbarian who is frequently the voice of reason. They have a pet mimic called Philip and Bill the pony who is currently a giant snail. As you can imagine it frequently devolves into the best kind of bullshit!
I'm playing a gnome monk called Fiddlesticks in Curse of Strahd who is running from the same archfey as above because he stole his staff of striking, we haven't got very far with that story yet but dope monk shit is dope.
I'm in one homebrew campaign as a great old one warlock called Zensira, I'm minmaxing him and having a lot of fun being overpowered. I ended up with invisibility and misty step at first level thanks to feat abuse!
Finally in another homebrew campaign I'm playing a Luxodon Paladin/wild magic sorcerer called Probosedia, he's not very smart so it's nice to play a low intelligence character and be lead a little bit.
I'm not neurodivergant, but I've definitely had to consciously get better at this. Booking regular holidays throughout the year is what helped me, don't just take holiday when you get to screaming pitch. This gives you something to look forward to and hopefully means that you'll be able to decompress before all the various annoyances build up.
I haven't yet found a job that hasn't eventually caused me to burn out, even the relatively chill jobs with little pressure have eventually had enough niggling issues to cause me issues.
Another thing is to not take on more trouble than you are paid for. If managers aren't listening or politics is causing issues then just concentrate on doing your job to the best of your ability and nothing more, when issues start affecting the companies bottom line then they'll take notice.
Can the asexual one just say "NO"?
I think on the ace subreddit the consensus was the whale. Blåvingad.
I used to have a moral objection to piracy, I thought that if a piece of media is good enough that I enjoy it then the people that made it deserve to be paid for their work.
I'm increasingly of the opinion that even if I do pay for something there is no guarantee that the people that worked on it will get their fair share and paying for media is increasingly a worse user experience than piracy.
