Don't need subscriptions for a local AI friend

But are the LEDs RGB?

My guess would be the upcoming changes to installing apps from apps on Android

My favorite thing is media pausing automatically when I get a phone call and resuming when I hang up. I listen to music all day while I work, so when someone calls it automatically pauses and I don't have to pause it myself or turn down my speakers. Really helpful for busy customer call days when I'm on the support rotation.

Notifications are also pretty great, useful for 2fa notifications since I'm at my machine for work all day.

I thought I saw somewhere that the mod's account was deactivated or something; Like, it wasn't them banning it just because, but for being unmoderated

Everything I've seen about keto is that it helps with reducing blood pressure. I've not gone full keto but I've cut out carbs significantly (alongside intermittent fasting, only eating 11a-7p) and it curbed my blood pressure issues over about a year.

Carnivore I wouldn't be surprised about though.

This one is 100% my vote too

I work from home so I usually only need a shower every other day. As such, my current routine is shampoo every time but conditioner every other time.

I found that using conditioner every shower led to my hair feeling greasy and gross within a day or so, but no conditioner at all swung the other way - Dry and frizzy.

Without knowing how you approached it, it's really hard to say why you might not have liked it. All of my friends that liked it were d&d players and treated it like a d&d campaign, where you try to make choices that a particular character would make, instead of just playing as yourself. That on top of enjoying all the little things the developers thought up, and trying to explore all the companion story routes. Crazy ways your act 1 decisions impact the content of the end game - like saving the gnome from the windmill leading to detailed interactions in acts 2 and 3 that wouldn't be possible at all if you don't save him.

Or stuff like knocking a giant spider into the under dark during a hidden fight in a cave under a blacksmith house, then later on realizing you can use a mushroom guy's "raise a corpse as a minion" power to have a huge undead pet spider for a while in the under dark.

There are entire voice acted scenes that 0.001% of players will see because they managed to meet 8 different sets of increasingly unlikely criteria. I dunno, there's just a depth to the game that made it feel like playing D&D with a skilled dungeon master, and I found it lovely.

I played through it 7 times (neutral playthrough, good guy paladin playthrough, dark urge indulgent, dark urge good guy, dark urge starts bad becomes good, drow minthara romance, succubus bard build who just charms her way into winning) before I eventually managed to get tired of it back in early 2024.

I've recently gotten back into it, planning to play an "evil but hides it and betrays everyone" character this time lol

 

I dunno if this is the right place for this, but I was curious. I joined Beehaw during the Great Reddit API migration, a few years ago at this point. I couldn't put a finger on why but I wanted to join a queer-friendly space. It just seemed like a good place to be, somewhere that seemed to have goals of inclusivity and being kind to one another that I thought sounded good. I wanted to belong somewhere like this place seems to want to be.

Then, years later, in Nov of 2024 my egg absolutely shattered and I came out to myself as trans. Then I just realized this morning that the timeline is kinda funny to me. Thought I'd ask and see how common that pattern was.

 

No seriously, what?
