Not even capitalizing the “H” in He/Him, it’s been a while since I’ve had to go to church but I’m pretty sure it’s considered offensive or incorrect or something if you don’t capitalize, right?

Come to Canada, we have well-paid teachers here with fantastic benefits. I never understood memes about under-paid teachers until I learned American teachers make hardly any money.
It reminds me of a post where someone said that Breaking Bad would never work in Canada because (1) he wouldn’t need to pay for any procedures anyway, and (2) even if he did have to, he’d make enough to afford whatever OHIP/insurance/etc wouldn’t cover.
It’s wild to me that teachers aren’t some of the best paid workers in a given country. I grew up with “oh they’re a teacher, yeah they’re well off” and to think that’s not the case down south blows my mind.

How are you liking navidrome? I’ve been using Jellyfin for everything, using the finamp app for music, and it’s been pretty good. I’ve heard good things about navidrome but I already had Jellyfin set up on my server so I just stuck with it for music too. I don’t have much music on there yet though so I’d consider moving over to navidrome if it was a considerable improvement. I did try to get it set up a few weeks back but couldn’t get it right away and got busy afterwards.

Yeah, that’s fair.

Funny, that scene is what makes it one of my all-time favourite movies. I rewatch it sometimes just for that scene.

They were supposed to open for Iron Maiden when I saw them last year but had equipment issues or something and couldn’t play :( I was looking forward to seeing them. Their music is sick.

That’s awesome.

Definitely where I live it was. I used to cycle between all the rock radio stations when listening to music and around the time that song came out it was all the radios would play. I actually liked the song when it first came out but it got so overplayed.
- Comment on Why is it called linux phone? 3 weeks ago:
iOS just got a fairly major overhaul to its UI too. Liquid Glass, they’re calling it. Screenshots don’t really look great but using it since yesterday, I actually prefer it. Feels a little retro-futuristic. Buttons have clearly defined edges again, everything is now transparent, and it has the same sort of distortion you’d get with those glass blocks that used to be popular in swimming pools and such (at least around here, not sure if that was universal). Probably my favourite look of iOS actually. That might be a super unpopular opinion, I’m not sure. I haven’t kept up on community opinions of iOS in a long time.

They look very nice but around $500 CAD is definitely more than I’m looking to spend right now. Maybe in the future though, they do look like something I’d like.

Is that Le Poisson Steve by any chance?

I’ve heard nothing but great things about Red Wing and apparently there’s a store nearby, but they are out of my price range. I’ve considered saving up for a pair but wasn’t sure it would be worth it. Maybe I’ll finally check them out, try a few on, see what the hype is all about. I know they’re supposed to last a very long time. Everything you’ve said I’ve heard, I just don’t know if I can stomach spending that much on footwear.
Also, I used to work with a Brent who nearly crushed my foot under a pallet not much lighter than what you said so I feel that for sure. Thankfully he missed though.

What do you recommend? I’m not in the market right now but I probably will be in the near ish future.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? 5 weeks ago:
Elden Ring is third person and Skyrim allows for both. I’m not picky on it though, I like both.
That’s a good point about GamePass though. I also learned that BG3 had a two hour demo on PS5 which I also own. So I might look into that too.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? 5 weeks ago:
Yeah I read about that after posting. I’ll probably pick that up honestly, but these two games are both super tempting too.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? 5 weeks ago:
Good to know, thanks.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? 5 weeks ago:
That’s a good argument. I appreciate your insight.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? 5 weeks ago:
If you spot me $60 I’ll happily buy both 😄
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? 5 weeks ago:
I like replay value, but music and atmosphere is very important to me.
Can you replay Clair Obscur?
How’s the soundtrack for BG3?
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? 5 weeks ago:
I appreciate this input, though I actually like both styles as long as it’s executed well, so unfortunately that doesn’t seal the deal for me. Thank you for the extra info though.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? 5 weeks ago:
That makes me lean a bit more towards Clair Obscur. Though both sound awesome.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? 5 weeks ago:
That’s where I was leaning at first too, but now I’m not so sure after reading some other comments. Tough decision.

It must suck to be born with a passion for pottery rather than programming
As someone who has a passion for music above all else, and who struggled through a basic programming course in college, I felt that so hard

I’m pretty sure you can just turn it off in settings. Or you can look at Librewolf which is just Firefox with some tweaks.

I’m not at home right now but I’ll check it out later. I listened to the first couple minutes though and it’s a cool vibe!
