As an American who just emigrated, I guess I jumped. I can still vote from overseas, but I'm pessimistic about the future.

They work. I don't know why people like to perpetuate that dating apps make suboptimal matches. Dating apps match people up on some basic metrics. It's up to the people to form connections. They dont have a magic ability to keep people from long term relationships.

If anything people might be more picky or idealistic because dating apps exist, so they'll likely not commit because of their high standards or FOMO. But that's more of a society issue not the dating apps themselves.

Agreed. I love both games, but ONI is a colony sim like RimWorld or Dwarf fortress.

You might need to go one step further and help it become sentient if Roko's basilisk is to be believed. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roko%27s_basilisk

I like mullvad but they got rid of their port forwarding.

If it's anything like the first one, the story is fine. The long script is mostly just a lot of side quests unrelated to the main story.

Milk or tea first?

When I did have a car, I felt #2 still, since traffic would dictate when I left. I only felt #2 go away when I was within biking/walking distance to my job.

Hence why I also said advocate.

If there are no relevant ballot issues, you will need to find like minded people to create petitions. Start small: Painted bike lanes, reduce speeds in neighborhoods, signage, etc

The other option is be angry and bitter on the Internet. 🤷‍♀️

This is why you vote/advocate for bike friendly infrastructure to exist where you currently live.

The house I grew up in just got a wired connection (fiber) in 2024. We had 3G by 2009 but the data caps and cost made it not ideal. Couldn't even get ISDN.
