Currently replaying The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD. Also have a save going for Stardew Valley and Baldur’s Gate 3 (well, I have a few games going for BG3; I have my solo game, I have a game with my partner, I have a game with my partner and a friend, and then I have a game with my partner and two of his friends). I should also get back into Pathfinder: Kingmaker, but I think at this point I need to restart my save because it’s been so long.

I do video editing myself in Linux and Kdenlive does pretty much everything I need. The UI is a bit odd to learn but I’d imagine any new editing software is gonna have a learning curve of some sort.

I would as well

Show empathy towards those that have different experiences than I do

Just a note that Proton VPN doesn’t allow P2P on their free plan.

Tbh I was surprised they’re still using them

What about people who program in C?

There is, however, still the concept of the Chinese Room thought experiment, and I don’t think AI will topple that one for a while.

For those who don’t know and don’t wish to browse off the site, the thought experiment posits a situation in which a guy who does not understand Chinese is sat in a room and told to respond to sets of Chinese characters that come into the room. He has a little booklet of responses—all completely in Chinese—for him to use to send responses out of the room. The thought experiment questions whether or not the system of the Chinese Room itself can be thought to understand Chinese or even the man himself.

With the Turing Test getting all of the media spotlight in AI, machine learning, and cognitive science, I think the Chinese Room should enter into the conversation as the field of AI looks towards G.A.I.

Is this the new sugar free Haribo gummy bear bag

I would, in no certain order:

• Work at a coffee shop part time making coffee for people. Preferably a locally owned shop, but it wouldn’t matter too much if not.
• Work as a bartender similarly as above
• Potentially garden if I have the time and interest for it
• Create more YouTube videos
• Write, record, and release more music
• Learn to paint
• Get a film camera and take photos with it
• Contribute to FLOSS projects
• Finally make that D&D table that doubles as a dining table that I’ve been wanting to make for a few months now
• Actually follow through on learning my several languages I’m working on learning
• Become an interpreter (probably in ASL)
• Develop video games
• Create more art in general
• Do research on how art and society mingle together and interact

No silly, birds aren’t real /hj

Seconding AHK, Bitwarden, and Calibre

Vs code

I would actually recommend VSCodium; it’s the same product but without the Microsoft telemetry.

it would take you 257 years to meet everyone alive on earth at this moment

Sounds like a terrible sorting algorithm /jk

I’m glad I’m not the only person to dislike this game! After going through like three of the chapter 1 missions for the characters, the game felt very very samey, and on top of that, it’s probably one of the only story games that I haven’t finished.

Since I’ll be moving to LibreWolf and it’s based on FF, I’ll check out Mull. Unfortunately I don’t see my device on DivestOS’s site (it’s a Motorola Moto G Power 2022), but it’s also quite new so it’s understandable. I’ll switch it to Lineage or something like that whenever it gets support for it but I’m fine with a degoogled Android for now.

I’m personally like to stop using Brave, and I will, however while LibreWolf will be what I’ll switch to on desktop, I’m not sure what I would want to switch to on my Android phone. I see that LibreWolf doesn’t have an Android version (and potentially never will; fine, developers will do whatever they want). I’ve heard about IceRaven, however, I’m not sure how good it is. Also would like an actually privacy focused search engine, but I think LibreWolf might have a good list on that front.

(Note: please do suggest in replies, not sure I made that apparent)

Second for Journey, it’s a master class in non-dialogue storytelling, and it’s just a beautiful game all around. I got introduced to it through its music (via a cover artist) and have fallen in love with the game.

Initially it was Animal Crossing: Wild World. One of my parents’ coworker’s daughter was babysitting me before school when I was in 3rd grade and she had the game on her DS and I fell in love with it. Still have the copy I got to this day. However, I wouldn’t say I fully got into the hobby until The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and Twilight Princess (Wii). TP especially got me to fall in line with video games as a storytelling medium artistically and narratively.
