This pretty much sums it up for me, I don’t specifically hate Christmas but I don’t celebrate it.
I do loathe winter as a whole though. Weather is shit, the lack of day light hours, and just general miserable nature of this time of year can fuck off.
Zen on desktop. Still using Firefox on android.

Yea… I would definitely get more sources.
Rather than scales, blobfish have loose skin. That skin, along with the ocean pressure, keeps the blobfish’s shape. But outside the ocean environment, they tend to fall apart.
As someone who liked FF7 a lot as a kid,and a bunch of other FF games, I really like remake.
I think 1 thing you have to know going in, is it isn’t FF7 just in a new engine with updated combat, and I think remake is a bit of a bad name for it.
Reimagining might be better.
You are correct that it isn’t the whole game, but it takes Midgard and makes a handful of setup hours from the first game, a good 40 hours of compelling story and world building(with some side stuff as well). It is very clearly a different story with changes that are interesting, but could very easily go off the rails if it isn’t properly managed.
It also has some incredible improvements to certain characters and even to areas of Midgard expanding on what was a very small part of the original games.
Combat is very good at mixing turn based actions(skills and spells and items), with action based combos. Dodging is a bit of a bait and is more positioning because you don’t get i-frames to actually dodge, blocking is important but doesn’t feel great(I heard it is improved in rebirth). The ability to switch characters and how unique they all feel is really enjoyable to me as well.
I am eagerly looking forward to Rebirth on PC cause I ain’t buying a PS5.
Remake in my opinion is significantly better than 16 which I think is pretty mid, and I would recommend it as long as you don’t expect a 1 to 1 of the original.
Too add to this, it also supports Firefox extensions, so you can use ublock origin as well as sponsor block for a better experience.
With hotmail/outlook, you can tighten up the security a bit, and stop the login attempts.
You can add an alias to you account, and then remove the permission to log in(dont actually remove it completely) from your original email. You will still recieve all the e-mails, and will work like normal, but your sign in will be different.
When I was looking at replacing my phone, I was considering an iPhone. But the major thing that stopped me was the lightning port.
The other major thing now is Firefox. It is simply better on android than iOS. It is by far the most used app on my phone, and not being able to use the extensions I do on android is a significantly worse experience.
I also really like my current phone, it has a marvelous bit of technology called a 3.5mm headphone jack and is amazing.
They are great for what they are and definitely have their place. But they are expensive and pretty mediocre in comparison to something like my KBear KS1s which are around £20, or £140 cheaper than the Openrun Pros I have.
I love them(I am on my 3rd pair), and I reach for them more often than the in ears. They are super comfortable and easy to listen too, they allow you to hear stuff around you as long as you don’t crank them up too loud, and the battery lasts ages(I got about 13 and a half hours of music out of them in a day).
In terms of audio quality, they arent great, listenable but the bass is fairly bad and the highs are thin. Mids, especially voices are pretty great though. So if you listen to a lot of podcasts they are fairly easy to recommend, music is not their strong point.
I cycle a lot, like a silly amount. So not having my in ears blocking sound is always good. I also suffer a lot from wind noise which can give me really bad headaches, which having the Shockz on helps reduce, and the music eliminates the headaches. This is why I love them so much, they are basically essential to me on rides, espcially when doing long ones. You can wear them all day listen to music and hove converstions with people without turning the music off.
I also like them when just out and about in normal every day situations, because I can keep tabs on things around me while enjoying music. This doesnt really apply if you are commuting on a busy bus or train, or it is really loud around you they kinda suck at that point. Because you probably have to turn them up too loud to drown out the environmental noise, and that can cause them to vibrate on your head which really isnt good or comfortable.
In terms of recommendations, if you cycle, run or walk a lot in nature(rather than cities) I would definitely encourage someone to try them. If you also hate wearing in ears I would recommend trying them as well, but keep in mind the audio is not great due to nature of the tech behind bone conduction.
I would not really recommend if you like blocking out sounds(commutes, noisy office, busy city streets), or you are looking for great music audio quality.
I am very minimal with what I carry.
I always have phone, headphones (either wired earbuds or my shokz bone conducting ones) and the least amount of keys(this is currently down to a single key on a small elastic cord).
If I am cycling I add in a small cafe lock, and in the summer I include spf30 Chapstick as well.
That is all the stuff ever really worry about taking with me on a daily basis.
What if he got ill, or has an upcoming holiday and has to make up his quota? I am not sure I want to take that chance.
I would easily say no to his face… but he has a guna nd is willing to use it.
Trust me, you could absolutely follow the example of other drivers and use your phone while driving.
Orion browser on iOS
It allows use of chrome and Firefox extensions, and ublock origin works.
So I watched this last night. It is a pretty bad film, with the worst use of slow motion I think I have ever watched.
It feels very rushed in its plot, and the fizzles out instead of ending with a bang. Very few action scenes feel good, from bad camera angles and slow motion that highlights all the wrong things. I would also describe the film as a collection of nobody’s, very little character growth and you spend almost the entire film playing Pokémon with them.
I don’t recommend watching, and I would be surprised if a directors cut would make a difference.
I wish I could switch, I even tried recently(last week). But one of my hobbies is sim racing, and the main game just works extremely poorly, like 30 - 130fps, and Devs have said that they don’t want to support linux so they will likely turn of the anti cheat support.
No, I can’t really switch because there isn’t anything equivalent that works on Linux.
As soon as that works well, or I build a 2nd PC I will switch (no I am not going to bother with dual booting cause I will just spend most of the time in windows)
