First game I ever made custom tracks on... as like, a 5 year old. I was more into making tracks than racing them, which is something that hasn't changed in the past few decades.

Maybe not my biggest pro, but I was able to customize my UI way more than I ever could on Windows. I made an FFIX theme for my wife and I might make an Earthbound theme for myself whenever I get around to figuring out how to make a customized window style.

Is the phone integration a iPhone thing? My KDE Connect app lets me text and share files pretty easily, plus a few other nifty features, but I use Android.

Subs; aside from being better quality typically and me reading pretty fast, I also understand enough Japanese to get what's going on. If you do it for over two decades, you get used to it.

Ironically, my Japanese wife sometimes makes me watch dubbed because she sometimes works with English VAs as part of her localization job, lol.

Dunno. I'm in the same boat but I don't feel comfortable burying my head in the sand, either. Just tired.

I guess I'm making do with hobbies and nostalgia. Like, when picking up my kids, I used to listen to NPR to stay informed but now I just get the headlines and listen to radio stations I listened to as a teen. Hunkering down, since most of the bad news is rather out of my control.

Given the trouble going through Pokemon boxes and that Bill's PC is clearly a server, I doubt there's any desktop environment. The real question is which distribution is being used...

According to my Nintendo Wii, the last date is Dec 31st, 2035. So just less than a decade away from the end of the world!

She was like, the only recognizable name in the booklet too since she signed the pledge thing about spending. Then the top two Dems spent record amounts because fuck our country since Citizens United.

Oh oh, let's also bring back the DLSS5 memes because the automation literally does this. Lol

If it's a lane closure, yes, you zipper merge at the end-- imo, because you need visual confirmation of what's happening but also because it's predictable and usually both lanes are already matching speeds and zipper merging ahead of you. There's no need to complicate things with an early swap. Granted, I rarely see a lane closure warning more than 100 meters, if at all... in my tiny car, the best indicator that we're merging is sudden lane changes of everyone in front of me.

Where I draw the line is when there's an exit only lane on a freeway and people are zooming along and suddenly want in. Did they jump into that lane just to get ahead? Or are they a helpless victim of circumstance from the latest onramp and unable to merge until now? I let them in, but I'm usually bitter about it.

It's rare, but I think they're referring to when it's open enough and running at optimal speeds. It happened the other day on a side street during an off hour, the free lane couldn't cut to the front without going like 70mph in a 40mph zone.

Of course a muscle car did just that, but still.

It's weird to me simply because I bring my own brew. Office coffee just isn't as good as my moka pot and if you've got a zojirushi or similar high quality thermos, you can have hot coffee for a majority of the day.
