I tend to avoid stacking primary tags, like shop. I would use shop=sports combined with sports=surf;skate.

The neighbourhood rats ate nearly all my strawberries the last two years so this year I transplanted them into hanging baskets. I see lots of berries growing so I am crossing my fingers we get to eat some this year!

I had contributed before but ultimately I don't find it that useful because the app is incomplete. The concept is valuable and I like the evaluation visualization, but incomplete or incorrect data make it much less useful.

Only the latest "evaluation" of an app is saved. It was very common for me to reopen Sapio only to discover someone had assigned a different evaluation from the one I had given and my evaluation was gone.

The user should be able to add a comment saying which features don't work. Just saying "Some features do not work" is not that helpful. Some users may have tested an app more thoroughly than others and so can provide details about specific parts of the app that do or do not work.

I have relied on completely degoogled android for many years now (first LineageOS and then GrapheneOS) but I almost didn't even try because I didn't know if my apps would work. A database like this would have been very useful at the time. Hopefully it can be made even better.

Thanks for your comment, I agree with you that generalities are harmful (and often lazy thinking).

If I understand what you are saying, that's not what I meant. I don't intend to say all landlords are bad people, but that landlordism itself is bad. It is not possible for there to be a good landlord because the relationship that must exist between a landlord and renter is exploitative and harmful.

The behaviour of the owners is disgusting. There is no such thing as a good landlord.

“Everyone deserves a safe place to live,” Vlietstra said. “I believe that is a basic human right: a safe place to live, that you can call home and not fear it’s going to burn down or people are going to break in.”

 

Three apartment fires with one common factor.

The properties were — and still are — owned by Fu De (Henry) Ren and his wife, Fang Yan. And while the Mount Pleasant fire was determined to be accidental, the buildings and their owners had a record of multiple fire safety violations.

Yes this is my biggest complaint of the ecosystem. Many games are difficult to play with the controller even if they are verified. For one: I wish there was an easier way to change the joystick acceleration curve for each game.

I use an Electra Cruiser as my commuter.

It is very comfortable and easy to ride. It has a really nice low gear so I just take my time going up hills.

Love it. This was one of my fav games of my childhood. I only finally beat it after I came back to it as an adult so I can relate to the scene in this photo.

I still know so many of the hidden lives and power ups.

I had fun playing it on PC, but the game is just that much more fun and immersive on the Deck. I'd say it's the first game where I've noticed a big difference since I got my Deck last week.

On the other hand, I found Slay the Spire to be better on PC. The controls and smaller screen seem to get in the way a little bit more.

Any other suggestions for games that really shine on the Deck vs PC?
