I personally like Mullvad, their practices, and their straightforward price of 5€/month. They’re not going to try to lure you in with discounts by subscribing for multiple months or years. Now if Mullvad has gone downhill, someone chime in.
Started playing Lost Judgment, interspersed with Baldur's Gate 3 whenever I can play with my friend.
Ubuntu 9.04. Jaunty Jackelope in 2009. Started by dual booting my Windows laptop. XP mainstream support ended that year, and I didn't want to upgrade to Vista, nor could my laptop handle 7.
Trying to finish FF7R and Intergrade in time for BG3.

Pam: they're the same picture
Volunteered for two years with a college student-run clinic that provided weekly services and advocacy for the homeless. Worked with social workers, laywers and law students, doctors and med students, chiropractors, secured food and drink donations from local places like bagel shops, clothing drives, etc. Interacted with teenagers (often kids who got kicked out of their families due to LGBTQ+) to the elderly. We had a program called “A Day in the Life” in which one homeless person who was close with the clinic let a student shadow him. We ran a 0.5 credit class with the university discussing topics around homelessness and making efforts to effect change, but also a little self defense and de-escalation tactics.
Experience was overwhelmingly positive, with some bumps-in-the-road that were opportunities for growth. It opened my eyes from the bubble of suburban life that I grew up with. There’s no easy solution to homelessness. It’s complex af.
Vietnamese-American, born in US. I was shocked to find out my hometown in Orange County, California, heavily favored Trump in the last election. I couldn’t understand why they would side with the anti-immigration and white nationalist party.
This article explains it well: https://www.ocregister.com/2021/03/07/why-did-vietnamese-voters-in-orange-county-swing-toward-trump-in-2020/amp/
Honestly, I’m kind of scared. How does roughly half the US garner so much hatred for the “other,” those different from them? It’s always been there, but it’s way more widespread than I thought. These so-called Christians can go to hell if they profess to go against their Jesus’ teachings.
But the satisfying clicks of my mechanical keyboard :(
Life, uh, finds a way.
I would try it! Made me think of Taiwanese xiao long bao and buns that can be made as entrees (meats and veggies) or as desserts (taro, chocolate, red bean, etc).
efforts to slash $5.5 billion in costs
Oh, pass it on to the consumer. Pay no attention to the millions they’re paying each C suite exec.
I was considering switching from Netflix to Hulu, but never mind. When wages don’t increase along with inflation…
Kim Jong Un is actually singing Katy Perry’s “Firework” in his head
Might I add that this month CDC issued a letter that leprosy may be endemic to Florida now.
And back in June there were cases of locally acquired Malaria. FYI, U.S. malaria cases are typically acquired from international travel.
I don't have much hope with respect to Florida's Public Health, with DeSantis appointing the state surgeon general Joseph Ladapo who has cherry picked science research to push an agenda, wholly ignoring what the research actually concluded.
Spongebob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated. Wanted to play something silly and and stress-relieving. This fit the bill.
What build are you going for? I keep gravitating towards Skill because I love doing visceral attacks.
You've convinced me to start Hollow Knight next.
I agree about Kena, which I finished a couple months ago. I liked it, but IIRC I didn't enjoy the parrying in particular, especially compared to Sekiro. Didn't feel as polished.
I know, it’s pathetic. AT&T holding a steady $40-45/mo while Comcast increases every year.
