Pounce or sand is a fine powder, most often made from powdered cuttlefish bone or sandarac resin, that was used both to dry ink and to sprinkle on a rough writing surface to make it smooth enough for writing.

While it's not the biggest achievement in the world, I'm quite happy that we made it to the 1K mark (even if it will likely drop again).
This community really means a lot to me. It's my way of sharing the love I have with the people that matter to me and with you lovely people of Lemmy.

This reeks of automated bot articles to boost clicks. The games are not a "surprise", they are just free games, as in "free to play". These are not deals or 100% of discounts. Just games that are always free.
