I vaguely recall them getting consecutively better. Not that Sundiver was bad, just the later books were better. It was sometime ago, so I don't remember a whole lot of story beats, just spaceships piloted by dolphins hiding under water, and intelligent chimps talking about their weird sex rituals. I tore through them pretty quickly and never really considered a re-read.

Metroid Dread, Stardew Valley, and Baldur's Gate 3.

The former on Yuzu's last build on a nice 32 inch monitor with a big controller that doesn't cramp up my hands. It's pretty hard, but I did just get past a part I hear a lot of people quit on, so there's that. I can't imagine trying to play it with Joycons. I'd probably snap them in half.

A user named kadu was offering it up to all in the earlier thread. He said it'd be available as long as he was around. Just DM him for the link.

Synthesizer news and reviews, Dark Souls streams (Lobosjr is the only streamer I can tolerate), 80s and 90s music videos, cute cat videos, Rush covers, gadget teardowns, soldering videos.

Edit: Almost forgot robot sumo.

Yup. I waited something like a year for Elden Ring to go on sale. No problem waiting again.

it might be difficult here. I'm in Korea. ie the land of Samsung.

I'm not sure if you're serious or not, but if you really don't know, Google up the best reviews of "Cats 2019" and delight in the glorious train wreck. Some of the better quotations include: "Will haunt viewers for generations." and "To assess Cats as good or bad feels like the entirely wrong axis on which to see it. It is, with all affection, a monstrosity."

Just don't actually watch the movie.

Luggage.

You don't want to be repacking your shit while late a for a flight because you're a kg over the limit and it's gonna cost an extra $100 if you don't and mistakenly rip the zipper off your carry-on. You really, really don't.

You don't have to completely break the bank either, but if you value your sanity, I wouldn't spend too much less than $200 on a carry-on/check-in pair.

I'm using a Leopold FC900R with blues (click-thock forever!) that I got a few years back. It's a full sized, 104 key, no RGB, no bells and whistles type deal. I got a really good deal on one (~$80 USD), but I'm in Korea where they're made, so YMMV. I honestly don't know what the back plate is made of, but it is quite heavy. 1.2 kgs (2.6 lbs) according to this place.

Ahh, context of the original "Don't go to bed angry." would have made this a little more obvious. I was thinking it had something to do with people believing that going to bed angry over something was somehow physically bad for you.

I haven't been back to Reddit since the first day of protests.

Not gonna lie though, I miss it. The niche stuff I went to Reddit for in the first place came here during the drama, but despite an initial push to get some replacement communities going here, they've gone almost completely inactive now.
