somewhat related, but my roomie showed me the drive thru at the local in n out (I'm from out of state and just never bothered to go there all these years). it was all the way down the street for almost a mile. I couldn't possibly fathom why. I've had only vegetarian offerings from there, but from what I had it wasn't special. The fries weren't even great, I don't think I'd ever even go back. So when I saw that extremely long line, I was flabbergasted. my city is currently constructing a canes too... can't wait to see how bad that one gets.

Another day, another disappointment from Reddit. I deleted my account the day you made your instance and thankfully things over here picked up pretty fast. I haven't felt a need to go back.

Kicked me out after high school. I ended up homeless for months. That was years ago, but the psychological damage never goes away. To this day I don't spend money on furniture because I'm too scared I'll lose everything again somehow. Even my computers have to be laptops forever now because I feel like if I get a desktop I'll be fucked into losing it if I end up homeless again.

I've been keeping the Pokémon creepy black ROM hack inside my delta emulator for the same reason. It's interesting to me when people make real ROM hacks out of urban legends and creepypastas.

I've been playing Pokémon leaf green. Me and my friend initially started opposite versions together, but he got bored fast because he tried to marathon it and got burnt out. I've been playing a little bit each day. Right now I'm in the Pokémon tower about to go to celadon city and get a thunderstone to evolve my Pikachu and Eevee.

if I'm at work- I go outside to this area that's not very populated. there is this small brick wall I sit on top of that's surrounded by grass and trees. at school- always the library. it's so quiet and most people are in and out quick, it's so nice to just sit and listen to music in the dim lighting. at home? my room is my only safe place, so I decorate it as hyperfixatey with my personality as possible.

I've been getting around it by setting my frontend to use an embed request, that way YouTube thinks it's a third party embed and the ad injection doesn't work. I've also in the past geospoofed to Russia and that works to block ads too.

I've lost many, including a front one. even had to have a jaw surgery when I was 17. it's just so expensive. so every time I want to schedule, I think "what if I can't afford it".

this instance is well known for takes like these when it comes to politics unfortunately. its better to not engage with any sort of political posts on here.

same as you. I wish this state would take responsibility at targeting PGE. especially since they burned down an entire town in 2018. it's honestly the only thing that makes me consider just leaving California for back home.

this has to be the funniest news I could have logged on to see at 2 in the morning
Decided to put my phone on do not disturb and go see some nature on this Friday morning.
Having dropped New Vegas in the past due to lost interest, I decided to try this game out finally since a friend of mine was having a fallout 3 playthrough himself. It was it 8 bucks, so I figured why not. I have to say, I put way more hours into this game than both other Bethesda games I've played through (Skyrim and Oblivion) before even finishing the main quest line. The combat was excellent in my opinion, and I (seem to be in the minority of people who) really liked the story. The choices it forces you to make sometimes really had me feeling emotional at times. I also played it with some minor mods installed, just some custom outfits and real world guns for immersion. Nothing to break the story or anything, though there are a few DLC sized mods I'm eyeing up to play in the future. Overall I seriously enjoyed this game, I've noticed online it seems to be regarded as one of the least popular mainline games but I think it's become my favourite Bethesda game I've tried so far honestly. Seriously recommend anyone who hasn't played this yet to at least give it a try. It really pulled me in. Edit: Since I'm done with F4, got New Vegas running with some nice mods to add gritty aesthetics and real world weapons. Giving it another try 6 years after I initially tried it and so far I'm way more into it! Edit 2: more specific context
I'm looking for either unbiased nonfiction, or translated stories directly from the time and place. I figured you all here would be a good source to ask :p
Worth noting: the warning originally had a direct mention that the attack was from a surveilling government, but they removed that part after being asked.
I got a quote at the dentist that my mouth would cost like 20k to fix (it's really bad, every generation of my family before me has no teeth). I really just want to not look like the way I do when I smile, as I'm missing a front tooth. I also have a recurring infection that I keep delaying at the ER because Medicaid covers the antibiotics but I can't actually afford the dentist. I've tried looking for dental schools but in my area there isn't a program that offers the free thing if you're a test dummy for a student. I'm not sure what to do and my worry is that if the infection gets bad enough I'll just have to accept early death due to lack of care. In the USA if it's not obvious enough already.
Hopefully this is the right kind of question for this community, my apologies if not. I'm looking for some sort of device that will let me load my own media from a USB / SD card, and play it to my TV. Does such a device exist? Some sort of remote controlled box that can just load mp4 / mkv files from locally hosted storage? I have been using my PC over HDMI but it can get annoying having an awkward room layout because my computer always has to be next to the TV to do this.
Feeling a bit down tonight. How do you guys like to lighten up?
So about 2 years ago, I moved away. Broken spirit broken person, over 3000 miles. However, yesterday I landed for my first visit back here. And I just feel weird. Like I'm not supposed to be here or something, it's very ominous. I constantly feel anxious. The weirdest thing was seeing how my parents have started to age. And the woods where I used to hang out are all housing developments now. I'm currently sleeping on a mattress in my old room, aka the office now, surrounded by random shelving and printers and stuff. it's really a weird feeling in here too. I don't know what I expected but I definitely don't feel like I'm "home". It's like some weird alternate dimension version of home. There's still some people I'm yet to see and I wonder how that's gonna go. So far everything already feels uncomfortably different. Alongside that, the rose tint has also come off and I have a lot of bad memories going through my head too instead of any sort of nostalgia. Almost like the different person I was back then is still lurking here somewhere watching me. Anyone familiar with such a feeling, after being away for so long?
