While this is stereotypically true, my grandparents that passed away 14 years ago were avid gamers. They adored their NES and bought a SNES when the NES died. I think it is worth inquiring with local nursing homes to see if they have anyone that has gaming experience. My grandma’s favorite game was Loopz. Grandpa’s was golf. Puzzle games especially are good for that age group as they keep the brain busy but don’t necessarily require adept fine motor speed like other genres.

Thank you for pointing this out! I was using Memmy because it was first on the App Store but have since switched back to Mlem (which I did beta for). It is a hell of a lot more fresh on features!

I am an IT nerd so I use Linux to learn more about the OS and programming. This was the original reason and still is the reason I keep a Linux machine on hand. Current machine is a dual-boot LG Gram running Windows 11 (wanted to keep the original OS so just shrunk it) and Arch Linux. It runs on Arch 90% of the time. Really only boot the windows partition to use it for work.

My first experience with installing Linux on a hard drive involved wiping the wrong hard drive (my dad’s) and installing on it. Then panicking when Windows 95 didn’t boot up. Thank goodness my dad was understanding lol.

I purchased the bundle and so far have been playing Spring Falls, Pixross, Beglitched, and Shutter Stroll. I am enjoying all of those.

To me, brain fog feels like my thoughts are swimming in the subconscious ocean and it takes a lot of energy to dive down and actually comprehend them. It isn’t that the thoughts do not exit, but rather that they are outside of reach of use until significant mental effort is undergone to reach them. Using those thoughts for any purpose then requires even more mental energy…energy that feels like the mental equivalent of walking up the stairs…it seems easy for the first few steps but progressively gets harder until at some point, if you haven’t used the thoughts yet, you just give up out of sheer exhaustion.

Evade the Eye. Excellent guitar work, good songwriting. Genre: instrumental prog metal

This was an unofficial loaner that was for sale as a used car by the dealer…so they were actively trying to sell it.

I once had a loaner from a dealer that was a Dodge Caliber. Ugly as sin and the transmission was definitely on its way out. That car was just a struggle. It was a reminder why I will never buy a Chrysler product.

Why not dual boot? It is possible to have both. That is what I typically do and with Mac this can be helpful because sometimes you may need to access MacOS for drivers and such. This way you can cross-compare and have more opportunity to learn.

Minecraft. Make your own to do list and play at your own pace. I will beat the ender dragon one day but for now I work on my next automated farm lol.

Harmon Kardon Soundsticks II about five years ago. $14

Toss up between raisin nut bran or basic 4. I just like the taste variety.

Get bitter apple spray for chewing and handle paws, teeth, gums, belly, tail when young. My dog is defensive when nail clipping and it is obnoxious. Keep high value treats on hand and start training as early as you can.

That’s what I wish I did when my dog was a puppy.

Look into backpacking meals. They keep forever practically and simply require heat and water most times to prepare.

As someone who has been trying to get my vision for a piece to fruition using AI for months…I absolutely think AI is OC. The argument that it references existing work cracks me up because all of art history is derivatives of what has come before. I do think there is “low effort” pieces, but you get that in other mediums as well such as photography. Also…need I mention Duchamp and the urinal?

Haha I never knew a fridge video could be so engaging!

When I first started browsing for new communities that is exactly what I did. I used the browser on my Pc to have one tab with my native instance (midwest.social) and one with the instance I wanted to browse. Once I found something I was interested in I went to my instance, searched with the !community@instance.etc formatting twice (once to discover if need be and the second to actually get to the community). The I could go to the sidebar and subscribe.

It was tedious but helped me get involved more in other instances. browse.feddit.de I believe is a browseable list of communities if you would rather search that way.
