The names of release versions are famous FFXIV Garleans

It’s been this way since Sync was a reddit app. Pretty typical for the author to go on a 6-12 month hiatus. They’ve always come back eventually.

It helps that their business model doesn’t rely primarily on ads or user tracking, and instead relies on subscriptions from other news businesses. This obviously isn’t perfect as they do serve some ads, and it requires those other businesses to exist and be profitable, but it’s a helpful layer of insulation.

I usually do fine on my own, but if I’m struggling, ASMR videos can really put me to sleep.

I don’t really like the ones with girls doing your hair or skincare that are the top search results (but lots of people like them and they might work for you!), and prefer ones that are just simple wooden blocks, glass beads, washboards, etc.

I just wish FS would slow down on commenting. Lemmy world comment sections feel like a FS echo chamber because they feel the need to comment on every single post.

Even if I agree with many of their opinions, that’s just not what I want out of Lemmy, so I have them filtered.

Interesting, I see the differences in animations but they’re very subtle and not at all a dealbreaker for me

Huh, I’ve only ever used Nova Launcher since full screen gestures were introduced, and I’ve never had a problem, but maybe I’m missing a feature the stock launcher provides?

The only annoying thing is the useless unhidable navigation pill, but there’s a Magisk module to hide it.

a lot of people would drop Metacritic fast.

Oh no, they lost a bunch of people who only joined to troll reviews? What a shame

I just manually filter them in Sync. I don’t have a concrete rule, but if someone has multiple posts at the top of my feed in different communities on more than one occasion, there’s a good chance I’ll filter them.

They hid this with Modern Warfare by just randomly starting over from 1 in 2019.

I do still use my city’s paper bike route maps, although they’re free. I rarely use them to get to a specific place, though, just for planning where I can make a contiguous loop I haven’t done before.

They should give him 3 months max with a team and then put the developers in witness protection so he can’t give them any more feedback and they can finish a great game in peace.

Yes!

This is why every frontend needs an option to disable display names. This and the emoji and zalgotext.

I took my bike out for a trail ride, decided to stop at home for a quick refill of water before going out again. I was in my house for under 3 minutes and my bike was stolen from my enclosed front porch.

Reported it with serial number to the police and a stolen bike website but never heard anything back.

I was in college and had to start leaving for classes 20 minutes earlier. I was pretty angry at the time. Now l’ll never leave a bike out of my sight unless it’s locked indoors or with two U-locks.

shrugs at 6a that is arguably already more performance than I need in a phone

Most people I know who read a lot use StoryGraph, and mostly for personal tracking, not as a social app.

The graces pointed me up the gulch to the north, after first pointing to the encounter with what’s-her-name. They did not at any time point at the map fragment. It wasn’t big and glowing, it was quite tiny when I finally went back to investigate.

Maybe something they’ve changed with patches 🤷🏻

Also it’s “marked” on the unrevealed map, but unless you know what the mark means, it doesn’t look anything like a map.

Tangentially related, I played over 30 hours of Elden Ring before learning there were Map Fragments. The first one I found was way up north. I just assumed the world map was supposed to be dogshit.

I wasn’t happy for having gotten through without them, I was honestly just kinda pissed that they didn’t do some minimal nudging towards the first one.

Huh, I have never used one with a single spoken instruction. Hopefully it stays that way
