How do you type on them? I’ve always wondered that, since if I invested in one it would be to play FFXIV and I’d want a way to chat. Always assumed it was a touch screen thing, and have no idea how well that would work for it.

I ended up with pretty much all the west half of the country, and it got progressively more sparse from there. Basically anything further east than Texas I had maybe half a dozen or so, and the rest I just couldn’t find in my head.
I knew one of them started with G from the US elections, but couldn’t get to Georgia 🤦 Oh well.
Vermont I did get thanks to a comedian, I think it’s Tommy Johnagin. He does a bit talking about Texas and how it’s not uncommon to hear something like “we’re gonna beat your ass, Texas style”, and then points out no other state says that, like you won’t hear someone say “we’re gonna beat your ass, Vermont style”.
Odd things that stick with you that help with trivia 😂

I wouldn’t call Ubiquiti corporate level, it’s more prosumer. I’ve seen mixed bag reviews on their more recent stuff, I currently use their wifi APs and home and they work brilliantly for that purpose, but I also have network cabling throughout the house and a server cupboard with several NAS units in it, so… 😂 They do have all in one routers but typically their stuff is better when you get the stuff that does one thing well (like their APs or their managed switches). That does tend to be overkill for most people though where a mesh setup or even a single Wifi router will suffice.
I’ve also had a lot of luck with TP-Link stuff in the past, both in their stock configurations and also reflashing some routers with OpenWRT (custom firmware), so they’re usually a solid recommendation in my opinion.

Better than me, I only managed 28/50 😅 Once the answers came up I did know the rest, but could I think of them when doing the quiz? Not a chance.

Oooh, nice, thanks for the tip! That sounds like a great plan for a lazy Saturday afternoon 😊

Okay, now I need to watch The Fifth Element again.

If you enjoy action thrillers, try Predestination with Ethan Hawk.

Sunk cost fallacy is probably the most obvious one that springs to mind. Not unlike gambling in a sense, people feel they just need one big payout to win it all back and then some, so they keep betting, hoping that this time things will go in their favour.

In my defence, I felt fine 😂 It’s just I have a memory gap where one minute I was sitting up, and the next I was staring at the roof with Mum panicking nearby. So don’t know what happened but it just didn’t go well.
I’ve had to do blood tests since then and they generally go okay as long as they can find a vein, but haven’t donated since that happened.

Pretty sure I’m O+, I’ve got that basic blood. But I got blacklisted when I was younger from donating, first time I went in I managed to get knocked out and go into full convulsions (unfortunately was there with my mum and it traumatised for a bit afterwards 😅). Few weeks later I got a letter basically telling me thank you for coming but please don’t come again.

Top 4 was paying about $750k 😮 If only we knew the numbers in advance, that would pay my mortgage!

Now begins the long wait for them to announce the most important position, who finished last. Don’t care who won, I need to know if I get my money back in our cup sweep 😂
- Comment on Why doesn't Lemmy have a system like Reddit's Karma? 3 weeks ago:
It used to in the past. It was removed in the 0.19.0 release. This is the pull request that took it out (I think).
This thread has some of the reasoning for it, but at a high level the Lemmy devs made a call that the benefits a karma system provide didn’t outweigh the problems a karma system can cause.

Awesome, I’ll add you if I see you both 😊 I’m Drusenija Ravenfall on Ravana (not to be confused with the character with the same name on Sophia, Bismarck and Balmung, who admittedly are all my alts, but not my main!)
And thank you for the gil offer but I’m under control there, I’ve got at least two FCs worth of submarines taking care of the bank balance! I’m gonna need to do a bunch of parts upgrades soon though 😅
Haven’t played BG3 yet though; I mean to but just haven’t found the free time. FF7 Rebirth is the only non FFXIV game I’ve played this year I think outside of more casual stuff like Fall Guys. Have gotten pretty comfy in Eorzea.
And I cannot wait for the FFXI alliance raids, I played that game for at least 10 years back in the day, and the latest patch trailer with the opening music for the game playing in the background was just perfect. That better be an orchestrion roll!

Because your brain now remembers it needs to breath and not to eat 5 day old bread! Remember to thank your sleep paralysis demon for the good advice 😊

I started playing just before Endwalker came out so I basically played everything through together all the way through to the Endsinger, so didn’t really have proper separation through any part of it. Dawntrail is my first experience of playing a single expansion at a time (and it sucks, I want to mainline more MSQ dammit, none of this waiting another 2 years for a new expansion!)
I main healer so I’ll get to keep you alive if you YOLO tank 😊

It isn’t, but it’s like when you have someone that everyone knows has ADHD who finally gets a diagnosis. It’s good for everyone that it’s finally on record and they can get the support they need.
Actually I don’t know if that last bit will happen for Pauline 🤔

For the thousands we have played, and the thousands we have yet to play.
