I‘m using Due on the iPhone. It can be purchased per one-time payment and won’t get new features added then (bugfixes are still coming) but that’s fine since there are not so many new features. Plus, it syncs to the Mac (additional purchase needed).

Heh, funny. Tbh, I do not like the fist fights, they feel weak and clumsy, but this time I won on the first attempt. At least.

Never skip boulder day

See? It just needs one asshole to end the world.

Hell of a job, but yes 😆

Now I want to know why

Smart solution. Like this, no one ever gets killed but we need an infinite number of people on the switches.

I’m looking this up right now!

Funny example of how a person can „create facts“ nowadays. It’s all about the amount of times a certain thing is being used. Like, when humans started to use bowls back then, eventually bowls became an essential tool. Same with language. It starts to change because people use new words or different words in their normal language. We learn: even Wikipedia can change the language.

Question is: did they obey the five-second-rule or how much time exactly did it spend on the floor 🤔

Not a direct answer to your question, but a story why I do not want special cars anymore.

I named my first car „Wilson“, after the beachvolleyball that Tom Hanks had in the movie „Cast Away“. That car was old, rusty and slow, but I really liked it. It meant freedom and another step growing up. I felt responsible and was so proud of it too!

One night someone crashed into Wilson while it was parked. The police woke me up by ringing the bell early in the morning and asked me to come downstairs. I was still sleepy and panicked, only managed to grab a short pants and a t-Shirt. It was autumn, cold wind was blowing leaves along the empty street and I saw my Wilson crashed against a wall. The metal crumbled, the lights were broken, most of the windows shattered.

They made me fetch my belongings from the car, then it was already put onto a tow truck. I stood on the street, a box of car utensils and my sunglasses in my hands and stared at Wilson while it was being towed away. I was heartbroken. When the tow truck drove off, I felt like Wilson was crying.

Since then I never went into a „relationship“ with a car again. They don’t receive names, everything they get is a bit of decoration, maybe. It showed to be a good decision because the same thing happened with the next car, again the police rang my bell…

I‘m from Germany, we more or less stick to the driving rules. One day I had to drive through Paris around the Arc de Triomphe with its eight lanes, in a foreign car which was bigger than I was used to, with three other people in it and a broken second gear. So it was either first or third gear. Stop and go for hours, and the French don’t care much about overtaking rules, any driving rules to be exact. In hindsight it was fun, but in that moment I was drenched in sweat.

That article is disturbing.

Surprising how many people opt in for the horrible mint chip, ugh. Obvs the ice cream of choice has to be strawberry, since the real winner, chocolate, is not in the list. 😆

I‘m playing „Rumble Heroes“ for some time now and I like it. It has mtx but they are truly optional. There is some grind to it after reaching about level 30 or so, but I like to do that in boring situations. Can recommend.

I experienced that with a video game once. I was overly invested in it by accident, even dreamed of it and cried many times. First, I didn’t dare to continue it, because it was too much for me, emotionally. But when I finished it, I was so sad as well, because that experience was over. That was a few years ago. Now I‘m scared to play it again. Haha!

I mean, hello, that’s just some media, but if it ticks the right boxes, those things happen.

Yeah, true. People doing this in their free time pour a lot of love into the apps, which is good, but money buys time and that’s what would be needed. That’s why I believe the apps wine be ready on time.

I am using the Mlem beta and while it is getting better with every update, it’s still far away from being usable by „the normies“ (i.e. every non-early-adopter). Plus, we need more than one good app, because taste is different. Lemmy moderation tools seem to be no so mature as well. it just seems like Lemmy would need a few more years, in my opinion.

No, we are not there yet. I believe it only makes sense once there are a bunch of mobile apps available.
