I played this one a few years ago, picked it up at a steep discount and really enjoyed the experience overall.

We had a very similar experience. Our cat’s eyes were green, but one of her eyes slowly started to darken and change pigment over the years. We would keep bringing it up to our vet who told us it wasn’t cause for concern.

Eventually that eye was deep dark brown, so we went to a different vet for a second opinion and they immediately said “that eye has to come out” and referred us to a veterinary cancer specialist.

We had her eye removed and while we were nervous and felt guilty about it, it was a huge success. Our cat perked WAY up after recovering from the surgery and you’d swear she was a kitten again despite being 11 years old.

She adapted quickly and the one eye doesn’t seem to impact her hardly at all.

I had a similar situation as you. I got a prescription later in life in my late 20s after never wearing glasses before. One eye had a stronger prescription than the other.

It took me about 5 days of daily wear to fully acclimate to the prescription. Each day got better than the last, but I definitely felt like you are describing on day 1.

It isn’t a fun process but it will also feel better and your eyes will feel much less strained with the prescription, so it is ultimately worth it.

Separation of church and state is supposed to be a thing. Lawmakers praying inside the chamber isn’t separate at all.

To me, the appeal of Fair phone has always been it’s repairability. And I think that they view the repairable aspect as a big part of their eco impact, as they intend for people to own their Fairphone for much longer and repair pieces as they need to be buying a new device entirely every 2-4 years.

Adding work into the shower would diminish it’s idea generating powers.

The reason we are able to come up with good ideas in the shower is that our mind isn’t otherwise occupied by doing anything else. We aren’t on our phones, watching TV, having a conversation, or working. Our mind has no obligations and the act of cleaning yourself doesn’t require much mental load. So our mind is free to drift and think freely about whatever it wants. We don’t have many similar times of distraction-free brain freedom in our modern lives.

Add in a task like taking a meeting, and now you’ve removed that key no thoughts head empty feature of showers that leads to the brain blast.

Where can I disable this within my Google account I use on Android?

On foldables like the Samsung fold series, is the taskbar supported in this launcher?

I used Nova on standard slabs, but nova doesn’t support foldables. And I haven’t found a third party launcher that still allows me to use the (super useful) taskbar on the inner display.

If Octopi supports that, I’ll switch today!

I’m also a Nebula subscriber for the same reason stated above. A lot of my favorite creators are on Nebula and either post their videos a week or two early on Nebula, or post extended versions of their videos on Nebula.

There’s no ads or sponsorship segments, so it makes for a pleasant experience. Admittedly, the Nebula “originals” which are exclusive to Nebula, is a fairly small catalogue. But what is there is high quality.

The Nebula subscription is worth it for me to support creators and have a better viewing experience… And to see each Jetlag episode a week early.

Scavengers Reign. One of the best pieces of sci-fi I’ve ever seen. They managed to create a world that feels truly alien, and the environment has such complex cause/effect relationships. Highly recommend!

Petition to bring back full qwerty portrait oriented keyboard sliders like this. I miss this hardware style.

Maybe I haven’t spent enough time searching out accounts to follow, but I’ve found Pixelfed to be a bit lacking compared to Lemmy.

Lemmy successfully replaced Reddit for me. But Pixelfed is just too barren for me to be able to ditch Instagram.

I haven’t seen anyone mention HROT yet, but it’s a other featuring a retro 3D art style.

I’m an American who visited Cuba (legally) a few years back. I paid for goods and was allowed to bring things back into the US. There were just monetary limits for goods on what you were allowed to bring back in. I believe products like rum, cigars, and coffee were limited to $100-200, but I wasn’t asked to show any receipts or anything.

BP. Obvious reasoning.

Regular watch.

I find myself bombarded by notifications all day anyways, I don’t also want my wrist buzzing along with my pocket. Since I work from home, I have my phone out on my desk most of the time anyways, smartwatch doesn’t really add any value for me as I don’t care about the fitness data.

I’m also a watch enthusiast, so smartwatches don’t scratch that same itch as a traditional watch.

Adding a good tip in the app is a good way to ensure your order will actually get accepted and picked up quickly. Many drivers decide to take an order based upon the payout they see listed in the app.

Not even a question for me, absolutely teleportation.

I wouldn’t need to own a car, never need to pay for plane tickets or any sort of transportation.

I can go anywhere at any time. Live anywhere and then just blink where I want/need to be.

Invisibility doesn’t provide nearly the same practical applications. The only useful thing I can think of for invisibility would be to hide inside a bank vault and steal money, but that could technically be achieved via teleportation too.

If you have a Switch and a TV, I’d recommend trying out Ring Fit!

That game has been my primary fitness source since 2020. It makes the exercises very approachable, and also engaging. You really don’t need any prior exercise experience to hop in and play it, and it’ll help ensure you get a well rounded workout in.

I loved it. Great art style, the soundtrack is amazing, and I found the story compelling. It’s one that I actively recommend to people.
