I have both Epic and GOG copies from two different free offers and played it a bunch, but could never finish it. I enjoy the atmosphere and the story, but the fights got repetitive and difficult (not in a good way). I stopped at some boss fight, then later decided to pick it up again and eventually stopped at another artificial roadblock.

As long as it’s got an e-ink screen, it’s already an upgrade vs reading on a phone or tablet.

- Comment on A conundrum 1 week ago:
I paid $3300 rent back in 2020. Got a mortgage at the low rates in 2021 and got a $2800 monthly rate. So it seems like it’s cheaper. But once I add the property tax (~$1000/mo), HOA ($500), home insurance (~$300), it’s at all not cheaper to own than to rent. Plus paying for maintenance on our own (had to replace both the fridge and the washing machine in the time since we moved) adds up too. Not saying it was better to rent, but it was definitely cheaper.

That’s just for the “paid on time” section of your report. I helps a bit with your score, but it doesn’t change how banks determine your debt to income ratio.

I wasn’t really into metroidvanias, but I still loved Hollow Knight and put hundreds of hours into it.

I always keep at least a leg outside the covers, no matter how cold it is. I couldn’t bear to be completely covered, I get too hot. Under normal conditions I don’t use covers at all.

The girth one makes little sense. The holes are labeled, left from right:

Exactly what I was thinking. Plus he seemed to have a good sense of humor too. But on the other hand, it would take him much longer to respond to questions on the spot (usually he’d prepare answers ahead of time for interviews and such).

States of matter and species are both cases where we drew the lines based on what we thought was obvious. Then we ran into cases that were not so obvious anymore and challenged how we define these lines.

Nowhere did I ever imply that ascii art was the only thing available

If only ASCII art was available, then Windows 95 itself wouldn’t have been possible, being a graphical OS. Games in the 70s and 80s had non-ascii graphics.

A site charging for reading messages will most definitely censor out emails and phone numbers and will have it in their ToS that you’re not allowed to take conversations outside the platform.

don’t stick your nose into other people’s business
That’s a slightly different expression than “mind your beeswax”. I was thinking there’s no equivalent in Romanian, “mind your business” is already simple and direct, and you can replace “business” with something context-relevant. But for “don’t stick your nose into other people’s business” there are multiple equivalent expressions: “don’t come in where your pot is not boiling”, “don’t come in like a fly in milk”, and I’m sure there are others I’m forgetting now.
