Watson also voted for Donald Trump, believing the businessman would bring change. She dismissed his campaign pledges to scrap the Affordable Care Act as bluster.

[...]

“I’ll give it a little more time,” she said. “But I’m not really sure about Trump anymore.”

Agreed that Falinks max battle is not fun (at least for a casual player). We took it down with 2 people, but had to have the right moves (Charizard with a Flying-type move), otherwise Falinks kicked our ass. I ended up just doing it once for the 'dex and never touched it again.

The jump in difficulty from 1-star to 3-star was pretty steep -- I really want the upcoming Gigantamax Gengar but it's 6-star and IDK how I'd be able to handle it when I have exactly one (1) other friend who play :(

It's a weird translation, the original text is something like, "It is with great regret that I have to inform you of our parent-child relationship in this way."

My sibling's delightful ex-roommate--a conservative, 20something, middle-class, cishet white man--said that he feels very oppressed in their college town! He's always scared of saying what he thinks bc then everyone will think of him badly! Literally the most oppressed! (His actual words)

Seconding Stremio! Just had to install the Torrentio add-on and even my tech-challenged mom can use it on her Android TV with no problems. I also got her a RealDebrid account (9 EUR/6 months iirc, completely optional) so she doesn't have to deal with torrent seeds etc.

Awesome list! Found some apps I'm interested in from the list, will definitely check them out. Thank you for compiling this!

As someone who's had a single-user Mastodon instance for two years now: I love it. It's definitely not for everyone, for reasons mainly stated in the article. However, if you like a more personal, highly-curated federated timeline, a single-user instance is great.

I 90% use Mastodon to keep up with my friends' posts and see art and animal pictures (and I hate interacting with strangers LOL), so I curate my instance to only subscribe to them. For the remaining 10%, I have a secondary account on a larger instance for when I want to read the news etc. It's worked well for me, but again, it's surely not for everyone!

As someone who uses a 40s keyboard (no numbers row, kinda similar to the bottom middle keyboard in OP's pic): my wrist pain that I got from typing 4-6 hours a day was gone once I started using them, because they're compact and I don't have to move my hands/wrists at all. When I type with a full-sized keyboard, I have to move my wrist when I want to type numbers, for example. Now I can type for 8+ hours a day without worrying about pain.

Of course, keyboards are all personal preference! That's why I love the mech keyboard community, seeing all the different layouts and shapes people tailor to use for themselves.
