The 30% cut Steam takes is quite a bit. Considering the near-monopoly it has on game distribution, that could easily mean the difference between turning a profit and not for an indie developer.
Personally their efforts towards things I support (PC handhelds, Linux gaming) and the convenience of the platform outweigh the things I dislike, but being frustrated by its problems is understandable when people don't really have another choice.
You'd rather not have the tools at all than use them through a CLI?
Wow, that sounds like the worst GoT viewing experience possible lol. I think I can see what you mean; there are definitely a lot of scenes technically unnecessary to move the plot along, and combined with the number of plotlines it makes the story move glacially (not helped by plotline conclusions not necessarily making the impacts you would expect on the story).
I think that's actually a big part of what makes it stand out, though. It gives the world- and character-building a uniquely organic feel that wouldn't be there if the story was the focus, with lots of incidental moments that don't necessarily need any weight. The enjoyment comes more from learning and immersion than anything.
Admittedly I'm all about characters and atmosphere, as long as those are solid I can enjoy something regardless of whatever else it does or doesn't have going. Watching with full spoilers I got basically nothing from any progression in the show; though in a way I think it actually made me appreciate the moment-to-moment of it more when I had zero expectations for the destinations and could just enjoy the progression.
Now that I think about it seeing the last few seasons first might be the right way to watch it lol, if someone's still interested after knowing nothing concludes satisfactorily then it's for them.
Funny, my first experience with the show was similar to yours - watched the first season or so and wasn't into it, then started watching again in season ~five with someone else - but I actually started to really enjoy it from there. Granted it only took like a season for it to really go downhill, but it got me interested enough to watch from the beginning once it was over. Despite the knowledge of the terrible conclusion the first few seasons ended up being some of my favorite TV.
I made it through the first season but wasn't enjoying it enough to continue after that. It seems extremely well executed but man is it bleak, made me sad more than anything
I would characterize Michael more by his self-righteousness and ego-driven attempts to be good than his actual goodness; so many of the show's hijinks stem from his savior complex bringing out the hypocrisy in his attempts to be 'a good guy'.
To be clear I think it adds to the humor, not complaining at all. Horrible people being horrible makes great comedy and Arrested Development offers far more than just that (probably my favorite comedy show). But it can get kinda depressing, if I'm not in a great mood I can't take more than a couple episodes at a time.
oh my gosh, amazing! so cute
I definitely notice the oral absorption with edibles with just normal eating (not sure if everyone gets that? I have a pretty low tolerance), I've never thought to keep it in my mouth on purpose though. I'll be testing that out next time I have some.
I was planning to go on a trip later today so I'll be trying that trick with shrooms, thanks for the tip.
Edit - I'm mostly back to earth now; I really liked it. normally I feel kinda weird and tingly for the ~hour it takes for shrooms to kick in and sometimes that can put me in a bad headspace, but there was a nice and very noticeable immediate effect with chewing them for ages that helped me get into the right mood to appreciate the 'main event' more. I really needed it :)
Your original post was asking why no Firefox forks implement that ui, but now you're saying there's no point when you can make those changes yourself...

That's too bad, I just started using it a few days ago and I love it. Covers most of the customization I want to do to Firefox that's kind of a pain like vertical tabs, alternate themes, reopen last closed tab button, etc etc. Out of curiosity, what do you prefer about other browsers/forks? Floorp seems like it covers more of the changes you've made in the screenshot than any other I know of, is there another one with more customization options?
It's hilarious how many upvotes posts here get, yet how few posts there are. My people.
