My main takeaway from this whole drama is that whether you’re justified or not, being defensive and whiny on the internet is not a good look.

Does Stormlight Archive count?

This is a great video, thanks for sending. I usually don’t watch short videos like this but this one was very interesting.

I was a very eager subscriber to classical music on Apple.  compared to the stock music app, though, it is very disappointing. In fact, most of the time I would rather just review the Classical pieces on the stock app. 

Here’s why:

  • The classical music app is not available on Mac or Apple TV. So, if you want to see your listening history, you won’t be able to view it on those devices. 
  • The naming and organization, which is the problem they were trying to solve, is not improved in the classical music app. 
  • I have seen some mislabeled tracks on the classical music app. This is possible in the stock music app, as well, I just haven’t noticed it.

The Matrix and Die Hard and The Dark Knight Trilogy.

Agreed. I also loved UT2004 and there are still servers up if you play online. Loved the custom sniping maps with low gravity or the giant team vehicle race maps.

Honestly there are no games like these nowadays. The closest being fortnight? But that game doesn’t have any modding and being 3rd person changes the gameplay from 1st person.

If I have a switch and a PS5, is the steam deck worth buying?

I’m playing this right now (no spoilers please!) and find this game kind of scary! Fear of the unknown, etc.

I loved the test scene and it didn’t even occur to me that they weren’t using CGI. I thought the tension was amazing and the stylistic choice to not have any music or sound during the explosion was surprisingly effective.

I’ve been running for 1.5 years 20 miles a week on average.

I don’t have sprained ankles but I do find the outsides of my ankles are sore and tender, like when I’m putting on socks, walking up stairs, or squatting down.

How do you strengthen your ankles? Or, if my ankles aren’t the problem, what are the common weak muscles that might cause sore ankles when running?

To combat my soreness and general muscle imbalance, I recently started picking up strength training again with a simple routine that uses compound movements like squats and deadlifts. So I’m also open to weight training that could help with sore ankles.

Thanks for your suggestions.

I have a thing where tend to dislike things just because they’re popular. It’s a shame because I’m starting to feel like that with Oppenheimer.

(Yes, I know Nolan movies have always been popular. Despite that I love them!)

I was also an enthusiastic Apollo user.

Other than Lenny, do you replace Reddit with anything else? This thread we’re in now is an exception - there are a lot of posts here. But most threads on Lemmy are pretty empty.
