I'm facing a similar challenge explaining epistemology to a hostile audience. (A 12 year old with a dry toothbrush)

This kind of thing makes me wonder what it would actually look like if someone made a game that entices the average cishet American and makes them "gayer". I'm picturing some kind of rhythm game that flashes subliminal images of hot guys every time you hit a "great!"

I know, I am/have been in the same situation as OP. I don't want to sound like a rise-and-grind guy, but when you get a little relief it's something to keep in mind. It will make that period when you feel okay last a little longer.

Running every morning is the hardest thing to imagine doing when you're depressed. The worst part is that it works.

You're right about it being more about management than "overcoming". I've also found, and heard others say, as you get older it naturally loosens its grip a bit.

Yeah, until the avatar is reborn as a Palestinian who can use his secret fourth type of magic kung-fu to mind-bend the genocidal thoughts out of the zionist leadership, the Palestinians are going to have to make do with returning unexploded bombs to the occupying forces.

I'm aware of the ones running the android version. They run well when they do, but online is partially broken and they crash frequently.

It's really there already. All they need now is QOL onboarding features like an in web browser version with a QR code to join your friends' servers, or if they could get on nintendo switch or something (not going to happen, but I can dream)

I have to dual boot windows on my PC mainly so my brother can play minecraft (bedrock, java ofc is fine) and roblox on it because the linux support for both is really spotty angery

People who know economics: Did the 2008 recession ever actually "end" meaningfully? When Covid hit I started hearing about a "new" recession but it never "felt" like the 2008 one let up. Now I hear talk of a "new recession" caused by Trump's tariffs, but when did the Covid recession let up?

https://www.luanti.org/ is a near perfect minecraft clone, better actually in some ways. Setting up a server for example is cake when you don't have to worry about DRM or authentication whatsoever. Every instance is a server with a click of a button. If the server is running mods your client will automatically download them proper mods to match.

The only thing it's missing is the huge library of mods minecraft has, but It's easier to make mods for Luanti than minecraft since it's open source.

It's more than just a mincraft clone, they're angling to be the open source minecraft + roblox all rolled into one. It's already better as a base game than either.

I avoided covid until last winter, and when I finally got it (Guess when my younger brother's school dropped mask requirements), it was sandwiched between a nasty flu, and RSV all in the same month. I lost almost an inch of hairline and my lungs still feel fucked up.

I think the internet is entirely unusable ... the entire day.

Critical support tho

You can't sign up for anything with a non-normie email anymore as of like 2018. yea

Everything demands something directly tied to a phone number anymore and I don't know why people didn't make a bigger deal about that.

 

I figured I might as well make it and ask forgiveness rather than permission. garf-troll
