Depends on the game tbh. Online PvP games are terrible for you because you are interacting with toxic scum all day most of the time. Isonzo has been a pleasant exception where the community is usually fairly nice. But most games it’s awful.

I expect something like Factorio is pretty good for your brain.

I use my bike light if I need something fairly bright. Does make me wish I went for the most powerful light available though. Think mine is only like 700 lumems, but the price was climbing up at that point and it is still pretty good.

A second one could be useful if I ever wanted a long night trip though because unfortunately it uses a build on lithium battery so would have to leave it charging in a bag from another battery pack when it’s flat rather than just sticking a fresh battery in and charging the empty one when I get home.

Depends though, you need to buy a pretty good one. My phone has a better than average phone torch, CatB40. It’s better than most cheap torches so you would need a decent torch to do better than the phone.

Men can, well you know…

But depending on the size of your phone it takes more bravery.

Can phones “detect” really high radiation on the camera if it’s high enough or is that film only?

Jizz their pants, presumably.

Ok after converting from GBP its not quite as overpriced as I first thought on seeing it.

Why are eggs so expensive in Sweden, not even fancy organic free range eggs?

Self hosting exists. This is why decentralisation is important.

IRC is based. I hate that so many games these days only use discord. Such a bloated pile of shit when so many only use it to send messages.

Don’t start protesting on a week day. Protest on the weekend to get a show of force. If demands are not met, follow it up with a general strike for your next protest.

People will be more willing to join in strike action if they know they are not alone.

Isnt the second amendment about making them care when a tyrannical government appears?

By 2030 am that will be left to communicate will be billionaire owned social media, fediverse and 4chan. Oh, and IRC.

I setup my own with a bash script for backup years ago that uses rsync, feel too invested in that now to change

They are also a good hangover cure though
