Have you ever actually tried one out? I’ve got pretty weak arms and wrists, but I usually play with my arms resting on something. It’s not like I’m holding it out in front of me while playing. Doesn’t feel natural to hold it up like that, but it would be a bit heavy if I tried long term. I even added the cover dbrand sells which added another bit of weight, but my arms are supported so I really don’t care.

And I still feel like their definition of playable is a bit narrow. I regularly play “unplayable” games on my steam deck without much issue. You just might need to fiddle about with the controller settings, compatibility modes and use the built in magnifying tool and keyboard once in a while. It’s really not the end of the world.

My husband and I are in our mid 30’s and don’t have kids. I even work from home 90% of the time so no commute time. I have so much time that I do volunteering next to my full time job. And then I still have time for hobbies.

Nah, I wasn’t pretending. I enjoyed 85% of all of my courses so usually I was hyper focusing during class. The remaining 15% of courses were pure hell though.

Moonstone Island at the moment. And Baldurs Gate 3 because cross-play finally lets me party up with my husband.

There is this Monty Python sketch called “the machine that goes ping!”. So my alarm for stuff like timers and such is just an endless repeat of John Cleese saying “Ping!”. I don’t use that one in the morning though.

For the mornings I have a song called “Waterfall” by The Piano Guys that I fell in love with a few years ago. It’s gentle but with just enough enthusiasm to persuade me to wake up instead of forcing me.

David Draiman. Sadly I can’t listen to the guy sing anymore without my brain thinking of the horrors he is actively supporting.

I was on the left before I started reading / watching anything online. My positions didn’t change but it feels like all of politics shifted right. So I guess im further left now by comparison than I used to be.

I think the main difference for me is that the internet wrecked my trust in the mainstream media and people in power. I question things more now than I used to. Then again that could have happened naturally just by growing up too.

The foundation of the building I live in is from the 1880’s. Does that count?

The only thing that gives me some satisfaction when I read anything about this horrific bully is that there’s no way she’s happy. People who live a happy and fulfilled life just don’t do this kind of stuff. I doubt any outside force will ever adequately punish her for all the evil she has caused but at least I rest a bit easier being sure that her mind is a sad place to be indeed.

When I was about 12 or so I had a AA battery and some copper wire I used for crafting. Out of nowhere I suddenly got really curious how good of a conductor that wire would be. So I pressed it onto both poles with my fingers. Had a nice black scorched line in my thumb for a few months because it turns out the excess energy needs to go somewhere. In this case in the form of extreme heat.

Hm. That’s worth considering, yeah. But I want to get away from Adobe. I dislike just about every single change they made to any of their programs in the last 5 years… And any change their made to their business model in the last 15 years or so.

 

I am a complete beginner and I can tell that this is anything but a beginner pattern. Obviously this shouldn’t be the first project I attempt. However, could some of you maybe give me an idea of how ridiculous it would be to try this as one of my first 5 or so projects for example? How much experience would I need to work myself up to this? It looks so complicated.

 

Hi there, new user here. 2 of my favorite hobby subreddits don’t have communities on here yet. I am itching to make a full switch but would really miss those. How do I go about creating them so people have a place to move to?

 

Very silly question I assume. There’s literally a thumbnail URL field in my thunder IOS app when I create a post. So far I’ve tried uploading an image in my main post which creates a web address and then placing that address of the image into the thumbnail URL. That does nothing though. Can’t find a manual online or anyone asking this question.

I might be the only person struggling with this, but please tell me how I can add thumbnails. Thanks.

I love the idea of sharing some of our favorite withy stuff here. Here is an amazing book I recently started reading based off of a recommendation by another witch. This in particular is a book that is amazing for how to use magic while you are at your lowest / not at your best physically or mentally. Felt appropriate given… things.

Considering the recent changes it would be so lovely if a coven ended up forming here too. The subreddit is one of my favorite places on the internet, but I doubt it will survive the recent sitewide changes for long with the timing of the new rule and how left-leaning the sub is.
