Persona 5 is a JRPG where you role play as a high school student, who was transferred to a high school far from home in Tokyo due to being expelled…

Blocking + Algorithms feeding things similar to your taste is already forming an echo chamber. Bluesky with it’s community driven block lists and starter packs makes this much easier too.

It can be a good thing or bad. Just depends on what you want out of the platform.

For sure. I struggled so much in the Colosseum I did not finish the last stage (Aspids can go fuck themselves), and didn’t even bother with the Pantheon. Wasn’t story required anyway so I’m fine with it.

Forgiving? Base game Hollow Knight maybe, but late game Hollow Knight (Arena/Pantheon) I would rate much harder than Nine Sols.

Warframe, by a big margin.

Also a regular occurrence in the Taiwan strait.
27 times in the past 5 years (Article date 2023).

Why the fuck does China and CCP have any say in “democracy and human rights” like they are some kind of leader in that regard?

I don’t think I qualify at giving serious life advices, but I want you to know one thing, you haven’t failed your son. You are doing your best, and your son knows it. The fact that you are doing everything you can to raise your son, and your son comforting you when you feel down, says to me that you love him and he loves you back. That’s not failure at all. The only time you would truly fail yourself and your son, is when you stop trying.

Best wishes to you both!

Yeah, that’s also an additional effort lmao. That’s why I was quite firm on not going full frame when choosing a camera. Weight is king after all. The Olympus OM5 and even the EP7 were also quite tempting to me before I got the XS10 (maybe they still are). So small!

No entirely surprised. Check on the Great Translation Movement Xitter page, people are vile on there.

I’m a newbie in photography. Just got a second hand Fujifilm X-S10 and Sigma 18-50 lens a few weeks ago, making time to go out and explore new places is now the harder part haha.

I’m surprised no one mentioned this channel yet. Previously known for making top 10 facts of everything, but has since transitioned into long form documentary of mysteries. He takes a long time between videos, but its always an instant click whenever he uploads. Does his own research, cites them, makes the background music and all of the animations for it. Honeypot for react channels too.

Motorcycle related videos. Does some motorcycle reviews, but the explanation type videos they mostly do are awesome. Even if you’re not a motor head, you can always learn/enjoy something from their videos. If not the knowledge and physics, then the excellent videography and story telling Ryan puts in there.

Technology Connections

The Youtube Appliance guy. I kid, but he does excellent videos delving into tech in general appliances or retro stuff. One of his best videos is about dishwasher detergents, so good he had to make 2 more follow up videos about it. Seriously, go give it a watch.

I live in Taiwan, people here wear masks for whatever reason and no one bats an eye. You can wear a mask if you are sick, have too much acne and want to hide it, or because you are a medical worker and need to protect yourself and patients like OP, etc.
It also helps that we all went through the SARS pandemic, which could be seen as the previous version of COVID. Unlike COVID, SARS transmits via respiratory droplets after symptoms like fever arise, so everyone learned to wear masks during that time, and it worked. When COVID came, we knew what to do.

Good luck on your Warframe journey! Where are you in the story right now? I dropped it after the railjack came out, and am tempted to go back and see some of the new stuff. I just don’t have that much time and patience for grinding all the resources now, maybe I’ll just see a playthrough or something.

I’m ashamed to say I’ve stepped into the Gacha rabbit hole with Zenless Zone Zero. It’s a fun game, combat feels quite good on PC, characters are likable, and the story is intriguing so far. Though I’m not ashamed to say that I haven’t spent anything on this game, and I’m sticking to free to play, as the value you get out of spending in game just isn’t worth it. There are much better ways to spend money than rolling for a chance to get a character. How much the whales are willing to spend for a character will never cease to amaze me.

This. Exactly.

For real. Being a software engineer with basic knowledge in ML, I’m just sick of companies from every industry being so desperate to cling onto the hype train they’re willing to label anything with AI, even if it has little or nothing to do with it, just to boost their stock value. I would be so uncomfortable being an employee having to do this.

Going wireless will always add a layer of energy loss, in this case heat, during charging, no matter if it is properly aligned with magnets or not. So first step to reducing heat is to charge wired only.

Fast charging is also a way of generating more heat while charging, so limiting the charge speed is also a way to reduce that. If you’re going to charge your phone through the night, it’s probably a good idea to use a 5W brick to manually limit the charge speed. A quick way to enforce that is to use the USB-A port on the brick instead of the C port, that way the PD standard won’t be activated and will charge at a slower rate. (Though if your phone fast charges through USB-A like Quick Charge or SuperVOOC, it will not default to 5W. Use a cheapo brick or a computer USB-A port instead.)

Last would be to limit the charge level to 80%. Batteries are the most stable at half charge and stressed at both extremes, but that’s not practical for anyone to limit their devices between 40~60% charge, so 20~80% is a better compromise. iPhones now have the ability to limit their charge to 80% or 90% in iOS 18, so set that if you can. On Android, you’ll need to see if your phone and OS supports it.
