I wish I could find a TV for sale that isn't a Smart TV. It's not necessary and you get issues like this down the road. I'm sure it isn't too long until the other TV manufactures do the same thing.

I use it as an acknowledgement at work, and to be a sarcastic asshole with my friends. Context is key.

Dropbox works pretty well for me, however I'm planning on building my own home server with nextcloud setup as soon as I can.

Sort of just seems like math too me. If a basket has apples and oranges in it, but far more are apples then oranges, it's safe to assume you'll see more apples when you look in the basket. Doesn't mean the oranges aren't just a good as the apples, there's just more apples.

Genuine question, and I don't mean any disrespect, if down votes are intended to mean people disagree with you, and you don't know these people, why did you care so much that you won't share your opinion on things again? I've never understood this way of thinking. Maybe I'm just weird but I for the life of me can't imagine caring that much about what strangers think.

I have a friend that complains constantly about Twitter, how its going downhill and he doesn't agree with what their doing and all that. Yet, he insists on using it everyday. I've suggested Mastodon and he said that "everyone is on Twitter" and then complains about it. Couldn't believe that I deleted my Twitter account without a second thought.

People are strange.

I've noticed smaller groups work really well. Once they get too large they start to devolve into in-fighting causing smaller sub-groups within the main. It's almost as if we're just not designed as a species to communicate with this many people all at once....

Honestly the issue isn't Reddit, it's just people. Most people are decent to great, with a smaller group of bad to horrible. With more people on Reddit the pool of bad to horrible is bigger, and they tend to be the loudest of the bunch.

Some of my favorite roleplaying experience at the table was due to a nat 1. Failure can be hilarious and a good DM will reward solid roleplay with a way out of a negative situation.

I think I might need to step my game up. My Mr. Coffee seems inadequate now. Beautiful set up!

I've actually read the first three books and really enjoyed it. Somewhere down the line I forgot about the series somehow. I'll add that to the list for sure.

Hi everyone. I’m looking for my next book (or series) to read but I’m in the mood for a particular theme. I’m hoping you all can assist with some recommendations.

I’m looking for a book written around humanity first discovering FTL travel. So the first moments of humanity starting to explore outside of the solar system.

Don’t ask me why I want this specific kind of story but I do haha. Thank you in advance!

EDIT: Thank you all! I've added every book here to my reading list.
