I hadn't used FB for quite some time, when I finally tried to log in again, they wanted me to confirm who I was first with real ID.
Not to make a new account, just to access my existing account, of which I know the password, security answers, and could confirm ownership via my registered email account.
And that was the final nail in the coffin.
Fuck. No.
"... and I must say, your potatoes are particularly nice"
Same.
Used Liftoff before Boost became available but it was buggy. As soon as boost was released it was a no-brainer, moved straight over. The familiarity from using it with reddit is excellent, has a great feel and everything just works how it should.
As a kid, I found Gargoyles Quest infuriatingly addictive. I wasn't good enough to do well at it, it annoyed me, but I kept going back for more.
God dammit.
It's been years. Literally years.
Well played.
8bitdo aren't really for any particular device, but the quality is fantastic.
Sounds like you've already answered your own question.
It might die. If it does, it's not a super big deal. You have backups. You don't like creating unnecessary e-waste.
As gets have said, crystal disk info can help detect any existing problems, but it can't predict the future if something happens suddenly. So it can be a good indicator, but don't assume it's 100%.
... And you end up accidently clicking a button that was previously above, and landing on a page you didn't even want to see!
White background & gray text.
When did we shift away from black text?
There's less contrast with gray, and on a lot of displays it's more difficult to read, and more straining on the eyes.
It sounds like you're coming at science from a religious or philosophical standing, and blurring the lines.
Science can explain and account for everything in life, whether you understand it or not.
There are plenty of things that we as humans do not yet understand, but it's all still science.
The question of 'why did this have to happen to me/them' is completely null and void; it's a question stemming from a belief system, not a scientific system.
Person X got cancer because they were genetically predisposed to it, or they encountered a environmental occurance that caused it. Person Y had a heart attack at 50 and died because they had a preexisting heart condition, or they were unhealthy, or an environmental incident occurred that initied it.
The philosophy of it is not scientific, it's philosophical and has no valid place in a scientific explanation.
Discussing philosophy can be thought provoking, entertaining, enraging, and enlightening all at the same time, but it's totally different to discussing science.
As for coping strategies, accepting that some things are simply out of your control is a good place to start. Easier said than done at times, I know. We as humans gravitate towards belief, we've likely evolved to do that. But again, that's science. Know your limits, understand that you won't always have control, and accept things that are beyond your reach. Life won't always be fun, but you're the only person in charge of your own thoughts and feelings. Use that to your advantage whenever you can.
The Water Temple was a nightmare of a level. Easily the hardest point in the game. If you stick with it, the everything that comes after it seems relatively straightforward!
That being said, having finished the game multiple times many years ago, I played through Breath of the Wild then went back to Ocarina of Time, and it felt very dated. Lots of nostalgia, but the control system is that of a very primitive game by today's standard for open worlds.
As for your question though, The Lost Levels in the Super Mario Allstars game. I've never gone back to it after all these years, might be worth trying again now with fresh eyes :)
Wish that was my worst case scenario
