A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!

Much better than expect. This has been the first year where we’ve had someone outside of our immediate family join us (my brother’s girlfriend) and it’s been very pleasant.
Going to start working my way through the Christmas ales I’ve been saving now!
In fairness, games are still something I’m willing to pay for and books. I think probably because Kindle and Steam are better user experiences than pirating those.
I used to have a moral objection to piracy, I thought that if a piece of media is good enough that I enjoy it then the people that made it deserve to be paid for their work.
I’m increasingly of the opinion that even if I do pay for something there is no guarantee that the people that worked on it will get their fair share and paying for media is increasingly a worse user experience than piracy.
On day 8 out of 8 in a row at work. Got 3 days off starting tomorrow and Cities Skyline 2 to dig into.
Omg, they have an arm Linux version. That’s going right on my Chromebook tomorrow!
Thank you for keeping on top of this Chris. I’m having a heavy week at work and I’ve not kept up with what’s working and what isn’t so your updates have been invaluable.
When I’ve got some days off I’m probably going to spin up a viewtube or invidious instance on either my home server or VPS and have done with it!
“Nextcloud is a can of worms” is an understatement. I keep talking myself into and out of trying to install it. I just don’t have the time at the moment to troubleshoot it when something inevitably breaks.
Pretty sure this is already the system used in London. Works fine for high frequency routes and for drivers that only do the same route all day one after another. Doesn’t work for low frequency routes or drivers that do different routes throughout the day
Thank you for verbalising this, I’ve been feeling similarly. Like you I try to go back to the sources and read them often finding that the danger is being sensationalised by the media. Recently though I’ve seen a few papers where the findings have been much worse than is being reported and that worries me very much. I’m mostly able to only worry about things I have control over as others have suggested but the oncoming climate crisis is so encompassing and existential that I’m finding it hard to temper my worries.
For me learning I was aroace was hugely freeing, realising I could just opt out of the whole dating mess
