Tried a bunch of the ios apps and settled into Voyager. Good UI / UX and functionality, active developer, and open source. No real complaints so far.

Something else to look into is that macbooks sometimes just hate having things plugged into USB when they're sleeping. If you're leaving anything plugged into the ports while it's sleeping, try not doing that and see if it helps.

Dark Reader - Seriously why can't more sites have a "don't blind me" mode in this day and age.

Swift Selection Search - It has a little configurable pop up whenever you highlight a word so you can send it to any number of destinations... search web, search youtube, search imdb, send to translate, look in wikipedia... you just build the search function in the extension and it becomes a little icon in the dialog box.

uBo - besides the obvious, it's good for eliminating unwanted design elements from a site.

Simple Tab Groups - it lets you define groups of tabs as sort of work spaces. I have ones for cooking, working, hobbies... you just configure what you want and dump all the tabs you want into it then you can switch to them like presets. Very handy when you open lots of stuff for a project.

Auto Tab Discard - gives much more granular control of what tabs are slept or set to never time out and how quickly they do that. Good for keeping memory footprint lower if you use a lot of tabs.

Augmented Steam - links to isthereanydeal.com so that whenever I'm viewing steam pages on browser for a game, it's showing me all the current best deals from sellers.

ScrollAnywhere - more robust click to scroll feature. Let's me use a button to scroll and pan sites more like a touchscreen device while using my mouse.

Oh man I hope they do it as a gritty live action grim dark retcon origin story that entirely explains Herobrine’s past starring Jared Leto as Herobrine and shows his face and eye color. /s

Yeah... "off" is the direction they can fuck with that nonsense...

Always check your public library. The ones in m area have these which cost you nothing to use because they are supported as public services.

Always support public libraries.

A “spectator”, specifically. A lesser beholder.

“The average American buys more than one new piece of clothing per week. If that matches your shopping habits, in a span of five years you have purchased more than 320 pieces of clothing.”

Who the fuck is buying multiple pieces of clothing every week? I don’t know anyone that does that. I feel like buys-ridiculous-amounts-of-clothing George is an outlier and shouldn’t be counted.

The calcium from milk thing was a myth generated by the dairy industry to sell milk.

There is calcium in milk but there is also calcium in lots of things. I have heard the fat in cow milk makes it harder to absorb the calcium anyway. Regardless. The amount you need is easily obtained from many other sources in your diet naturally assuming you don’t take supplements.

A lot of plant milks have more calcium than cow milk so adding more would be silly.

Skyrim is a first person action adventure game with RPG elements. Baldurs gate is a much more traditional fantasy RPG which I a focused on tactics and D&D core rules and character stories where action stakes a back seat. So it sounds more like you enjoy the action and immersion of Skyrim than the “RPG” side of it.

BG3 is really a love letter to the people that liked the original games and wanted more depth to the systems to try to capture the tabletop experience a little more. Since you described it as “clunky” I’m guessing that the slower tactical aspect is what you’re bouncing off of.
