I seem to recall an on-screen warning from William S Sessions of the FBI when playing arcade games ages ago as well…?

Wayward Pines.

Weird to not see (at the time I’m writing this) any mentions of “todoist” which people on forums have loved for ages. I’m not a fan at all so I’m glad to finally not see it as frequently. My preference for work, where I have multiple categories and statuses (including a “done and waiting for the other person to confirm” status) is Trello with some automations. For home, just simple reliable entry on phone and desktop, is Ticktick. I particularly love the natural date parsing built into Ticktick (can also be done in Trello with an automation), very useful for super fast task entry and due date/time scheduling.

Followed my then-girlfriend, now-wife on a wing and a prayer from Australia to the US over 20 years ago. Still living in the US and I haven’t caught a bullet yet \o/

+1 for Plex. Basically perfect and so much more polished than JF (which I tried on three separate occasions to force myself to like).

Microwave basmati rice and Trader Joe’s microwave yellow tadka dal. Addicted to it right now. Sometimes I’ll slice up half a beef sausage or Polska kielbasa, fry that in a pan for a couple minutes and throw it on top along with some sriracha sauce.

But he made himself feel every death, and he saved the entire world from (holds lighter under map)…

Adrian Veidt, Watchmen.

Coincidentally I only just recently finished reading “Dark Matter” by Blake Crouch.

I do, but it’s because my wife works from home and spends three quarters of the day with the chick cave door closed doing teams meetings. Generally my msgs will be “want brunch/coffee/pastries?” etc.

It’s a fairly normal start, and “must not force you to use an account” wasn’t listed in your set of requirements. The account is because the app supports completely free syncing across multiple mobile and desktop platforms. Just use any throwaway google account or create a new one just for the purpose. No subscription and it is FOSS.

Just use Simplenote.

Brand new linux distro in three… two…

RG353V.

Nine Parchments and Magicka 2.

Edit: also, the Trine games. And on PlayStation we enjoyed Diablo III and Alienation, both of those are three player as well.

I use NextDNS on occasion. I used to use pihole a while back during the “Covid years” but something it was blocking royally screwed up my kid’s Google Classroom submitted schoolwork, he was turning in empty assignments and we thought it was his fault but it wasn’t. Had to apologize to multiple schoolteachers and vowed never to use that piece of shit software again.
