I played it last year. It was fun for a few days, but once I got the hang of the water physics and had a well-functioning city, it became mostly repetitive.

I wonder if newer updates bring more to the mid/late game. I'll have to check it out again at some point.

These are the three that the article refers to:

  • KeePass
  • KeePassXC
  • Bitwarden (Self-Hosted)

From a Kirkland, Washington, USA health hazards sheet that I found in a quick search:

TIPS TO REDUCE EXPOSURES TO BISPHENOLS IN RECEIPTS:

  • DO NOT compost or recycle receipts and other thermal paper. BPA & BPS residues from receipts will contaminate recycled paper.
  • Minimize receipt collection by declining receipts at gas pumps, ATMs and other machines when possible.
  • Never give a child a receipt to hold or play with.
  • After handling a receipt, wash hands before preparing and eating food.
  • Do not use alcohol-based hand cleaners after handling receipts. A recent study showed that these products can increase the skin's BPA absorption.
  • Take advantage of store services that email or archive paperless purchase records.
  • Store receipts separately in an envelope in a wallet or purse.

HAZARDS FOUND IN LABORATORY TESTS INCLUDE:

  • Obesity
  • Diabetes
  • Early Puberty
  • Cardiovascular system disorders
  • Abnormal reproductive system development
  • Hormone abnormalities in children
  • Susceptibility to various cancers
  • Resistance to chemotherapy
  • Diminished intellectual capacity

I disagree.

  1. OP wasn't at all specific about what kind of transit app they were seeking, as others have noted.
  2. Whatever kind of privacy-friendly transit app they want, F-Droid is exactly the place to find it.
  3. There are only a handful of each type there. Comparing that to an ocean is absurd.
  4. Many people don't know about F-Droid at all, and just need a pointer to it.

Despite disagreeing, I appreciate that you used your words. Thanks.

I suggest browsing the apps available here:

Edit: I have no idea who would downvote this or why, but doing so is not helpful to anyone, in any way. If you have a question or concern, please just write it in a comment.

I was referring to the image-only link and the embed that you suggested. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

Neither of those is a good approach, because part of every xkcd comic is the hover text.

The environment looks real enough. The "cats" look like weird demon creatures created by some entity that only knows dogs.

Why is he so interested in Greenland? Is it just the natural resources?

I often sit at a desk all day and all evening. I find that these things help:

  • Good chair. Height adjusted for my keyboard/mouse height. Upright back. Lumbar support. Comfortable-but-supportive seat.
  • Good posture (when I remember to pay attention to it).
  • Split, tented keyboard. Mechanical switches that don't require too much pressure.
  • Good display. IPS panel. Light anti-glare surface. Backlight that actually dims the light source, either without pulse-width modulation, or with PWM at such high frequency that it cannot induce flicker fatigue. Brightness turned down much lower than the default. Calibrated at that brightness setting, optionally to a slightly warm color temperature.
  • Muted room lighting. Nothing behind me bright enough to reflect much on the screen.
  • Comfortable clothes.
  • Cup of water. Regular trips to the kitchen to keep it filled.
  • Frequent short breaks. Start the laundry. Get a snack. Look at objects outside. Wash a dish. Bring in the mail. Make the bed.
  • Exercise. At least 10 minutes daily; preferably 30 minutes or more. Stretches. Squats. Rhythm games that require full-body movement.

Congratulations!

For those who didn't notice that OP posted 2 links:
(They look like a single link because there's nothing separating them.)

Its an actual term

It's a phrase coined very recently based on a misconception, and happened to be picked up by some online publishers. That's all.

Saying "its an actual term" [sic] just attempts to give it an air of legitimacy, without actually meaning anything.

The phrase itself is not only ignorant, but also insulting. The gamers it refers to are not Baby Boomers, but Generation X, which had nothing to do with the damage to society that Boomers are famous for and most of us in younger generations are suffering from now. (Housing crisis and out-of-touch legislators, for example.)

 

Hi, folks.

Almost all of my communities still show up as "Subscribe Pending", regardless of what instance hosts them, even a week after I subscribed to them.

Re-subscribing doesn't seem to help.

I'm new to feddit.org. Is this a known problem here?

Hi, folks.

The user settings Import feature isn't working for me. Every time I try to import the .json file, I get the following error message:

Please wait a few minutes before trying to import or export settings again

It still failed 5 minutes later, and again 15 minutes after that. Is import functionality broken on this instance?


Edit:

I tried again seven hours later, and it finally worked. I wonder what was going wrong earlier.
