Dave the Diver is my cozy solo game. My friends and I picked up Granblue Fantasy Relink as our nightly stint. Think monster hunter but even more anime

I’m in shambles, if only I had known! How could I have been so mistaken 😭

Just finished Marvel’s Midnight Suns! Also playing Baldurs Gate 3 leisurely with my wife. Nabbed a bunch of turn based strategy games while they were on sale so looking to get into those next

What is “fediverse community spotlight”

There are dozens of us! Dozens!!

For a Google drive alternative I’ve heard of nextcloud but haven’t looked into it. For staying in touch with news articles, etc you could look into RSS readers and subscribe to RSS feeds from publications online. For a Google alternative, duckduckgo can handle your search needs. I opted to sail the high seas rather than subscribe to multiple streaming services, but I haven’t found a YouTube replacement

I know you mentioned you weren’t super tech savvy, but check out some of the stuff on the https://awesome-selfhosted.net/ list. Not everything there actually needs to be self hosted or set up in any complex way.

That being said, you need to be able to handle criticism (constructive or not) in order for that conversation to happen and benefit you

If you’re up for it, why not ask your past dates why they think you guys didn’t work out, or what you could work on as a person. People you’ve spent time with will probably give you the most objective take if there was anything other than “we just didn’t mesh”.

Baldurs gate 3, just beat the game and now I’m going for a tactician run. The wife and I have also been playing pit people co op. We hooked up her steam deck to the living room TV and have been looking for more couch co op games!

for retro handheld options try !c/sbcgaming@lemmy.ml

There’s a massive spreadsheet that’s linked on the reddit equivalent that tracks and breaks down handheld features, price points, and what consoles it can reasonably emulate too

I’m sure there will be people that take this seriously lol, PSA to others don’t do this. It fucks up the land and nearby water sources as it spreads out. In the US you can be forced to replace the contaminated soil

Hey you’ve clearly been thinking a lot about this and where you want to take your life. It will take effort either way, whether you choose to build your life there or elsewhere, so feel the freedom to try something else. If you’re undecided, maybe think about what you would regret the least. I’ve also thought making a quick pros and cons list for myself helps. Best of luck to you

We all knew this day would come, now it’s just a matter of making different captcha tests to evade these bots

I used to work at Amazon, though nowhere near fulfillment so I’m not an expert but can give you a general perspective from within the company. Carriers also charge the seller for shipping services, so what you pay for as the buyer may be different. Costs are also offset by volume of packages. With 2 days the logistics become less tight than with 1 day. Ground shipping becomes more of a possibility, and is much less expensive comparatively.

This next one may be Amazon specific, but they would preemptively distribute some products shipped from sellers in closer warehouses. If they have to hold the inventory anyways, holding it closer to a metropolitan area makes it easier to use cheaper ground shipping methods. With that in mind, I know inventory holding costs were more of a focus for cost optimization internally.

Recently got a steam deck for the wife, we’ve been having fun playing Valheim together. Honkai Star Rail and soon to be baldurs gate 3 are also on the docket

Damn his face looks like he’s wearing a skin mask

oo TIL swapping for hall effect sensors will also resolve stick drift concerns 👀 that does sound like a game changer

!! thanks for that, I have been meaning to get through some classic jrpgs
