It's only been an year? I feel like that time was ages ago!

At some point 15-20 years ago Firefox was becoming a resource hog and I switched to chrome. I switched back a number of years ago and regret not switching back earlier.

What an American problem. 😂

A lot of non-native speakers can show higher command of the language, because they took the time to study its rules. Just look at how people type on social media.

Reddit's street photography subreddit wasn't that great to be honest. I'm trying to curate a street photography community here, but it is a slow process. !streetphotography@lemmy.world .

But I agree, I still go back for some niche content like the editors' subreddit.

I used to always try for the best outcome but with this have it seems like half of the time a failure also leads to an amazing consequence and story.

Like this from act one in the Underdark:

spoilerI had to find a hidden gnome that could supply me with gunpowder, but she was so much on edge that she lit up the barrel of gunpowder and blew up the whole room, leaving half of my party dead. A suicide gnome bomber. I couldn't convince her that I was not an enemy. Reloaded just to see if I could successfully do it, but much preferred the first outcome of the dice roll, so had to reload and try 6 times until I failed again. What a game!

This sounds like somebody's Saturday RPG session recap. Larian have managed to capture the spirit of this quite well!

What are some fun (non-spoilery) moments you've experienced?

I'm trying to, reached 300 subscribers, but three of them posted once, several commented once and that's it.

KeePass for me. I manage my own database, don't rely on clouds and etc.

Hahahha, I had to go back and look at my comment to appreciate your response. 😂

Even Reddit was not niche enough for some things. Like a proper street photography subreddit.

Comparison is the thief of joy. Enjoy others' success but compare yourself of today with yourself from the past.

I don't think so. I think that people want to believe it, justify their unhappiness with their partner, but it mostly comes down to being able to learn, to make compromises and to hold yourself to the same standard (if not higher) than you hold your partner to. Nobody is perfect and people who say their partners are are really sugarcoating it. Being in a relationship can be really difficult and frustrating, but also very rewarding and humbling, because what's better thank being with someone that you understand and he or she understands you? Someone that helps you better yourself? Sometimes it's not even about that, it's just about that calming presence. But none of that comes naturally, none if it just happens like that. It takes work and dedication.

Exactly. Liu Cixin's trilogy Remembrance of Earth's Past has some great writing on different technological levels between alien species and how one could influence a lower tiered civilization by using physics.
