i have been to the US several times. Have you ever tried to eat healthily?

As you specifically mention Minecraft: check out Valheim. In default settings you can hardly call it a pleasant stroll, but exploring the biomes is beautiful with especially stunning lighting.

Many moons ago we had a budgie. In his cage he had a little swing on a hook and one of his games was unhooking the swing and rehooking it. One day he had unhooked his swing and then let go of the ceiling of his cage. With a loud clang both he and the swing fell down. He looked very embarrassed and very caught in the act.

I am not sure about 'ever' (I am old and have been reading for over 4 decades now), but a book I hate-read recently was Foucault's pendulum by Umberto Eco. It is meant to be a satire on conspiracy theories and as such it is still a relevant book after 35 years or so. However, the point of satire is to get to the point eventually, preferably within 500 pages. It was pompously written and sometimes felt like a showcase of 'look how much I know!'.

Core developer of an open source software suite here. We make money by doing the following things:

• We offer a free and open source community package that has the basics. However, we offer a number of professional packages that we offer yearly subscriptions for.
• We host our software. We charge by the number of active users.
• Custom development.
• Paid support like migrations or troubleshooting. Also helping external developers develop custom modules.

This allows us enough income to develop the community part of the software.

Dvorak. I switched back in 2005 from qwerty and never looked back. I never looked forward either, so I may try out Colemak at some point in time. Workman looks solid for English, but I am not a native English speaker.

If you were ever here, how did you solve this?

Simple. Just stay friends. I left a job 15 years ago because the CEO was an asshole. However, our team was great and I still visit some of my old colleagues regularly.
