Hey all, Anyone ever experimented with alternatives to a citrus twist that is more shelf stable? Can you simply get an atomizer of essential oil as a replacement? I drink infrequent enough that I end up throwing away dried out or rotten citrus when I go to reach for it. Interested in people's solutions for this.

    Is it any easier to find roguelites instead of roguelikes, or vice versa? The terms are so similar, and everyone has a different definition, that any nuance when tag searching is lost. I respectfully disagree, I feel like anyone asking where to find traditional roguelikes knows where to find them better than finding roguelikes instead of roguelites, etc etc.

    This should be higher up. Roguelite is a dead term imo. Language has evolved such that roguelike and roguelite are basically the same. The nuances change between every person you ask. So the debate is completely pointless. Just call them all roguelikes, and if you are referring to the traditional ones, call them as such. Traditional, classic, true, whatever.

    I'll be honest, I don't even know what you're asking. Discord owns all data on Discord. Server "owners" do not own anything from a data security standpoint. If you are asking a question in good faith, please rephrase it into smaller sentences. If you are arguing in bad faith, I have no desire to continue this thread.

    I'm sorry, but it's probably in your best interest to do some research and actually read the discord Terms of Service and Privacy Policy before arguing about something you lack knowledge in. Creators of a Discord server are not responsible for members' data that they send to Discord. That relationship is between Discord and the Member, not the creator of a server. Any "contractual agreement" you are talking about is covered when you click "I agree" when creating an account, the devs' accounts included.

    This is a ridiculous argument that has a correct answer that Discord themselves will tell you.

    I would bet the direct light on your face from the monitor and the lamp contributing to your headaches. That is a very high amount of strain on your eyes. Please turn your monitor brightness down, and other people are saying you don't need to have it directly at you for 8 hours. That seems very excessive, and you even said it's not enough, so you may want to just look at alternatives and curbing the headaches. Have you considered going to therapy or seeing a psychiatrist about this?

    This is the only point that matters. Even if AI is here to stay, that's fine, you just don't use it when specifically highlighting the demographic most threatened by its usage. The post was just a bad business decision; they should have known how it could come across. It's their job to know that kinda stuff before hitting Post.

    Yeah. The moral is "every and all devices have an unknown number of zero-days inactive or actively being exploited at any given time", not "iPhone is just as insecure as everything else". There's a difference, and credit is deserved where it's due.

    This is kind of a ridiculous take. I hate iPhones, but this is not a "hurr durr iPhones bad and insecure" moment. I implore you to look at the sophistication of this attack. The attack chain is so ridiculously long and complex, and only because of the security of the iPhone. This is not a script kiddie attack, and could only be executed by a very determined party.

    No device is secure, and any and all computers could potentially fall victim to an attack like this, but it is absolutely ignorant to say that iPhones don't offer any more security than other devices.

    In Death (not Unchained) is abandoned on Steam. So much so, in fact, that it crashes when you launch it because the leaderboards were shut down. You have to go into your firewall and create a role to deny the Internet from the game in order for it to launch.

  • Not sure if that renders the same for everyone, but I'm very tired of seeing the big emoji letter usernames. Is there an option to convert these usernames to ASCII or otherwise not render them? If not, could this be something that could be implemented? I don't want to resort to blocking everyone, but I may if there's no other choice. It's very visually annoying and distracting.

    It's like driving to a city just to get out of your car and shout why you hate that city, then leave. It's just like... why not go somewhere else then and move on with your life?

  • I'm looking to play some mobile games online with my partner while we're away; something simple and potentially asynchronous but doesn't have to be. Something like Words With Friends but not cluttered and overrun with ads. Simple board games, strategy, or other casual games. Anyone have any suggestions? Doesn't necessarily have to be free, but it is preferred. I've looked all over but navigating the Play Store is a nightmare if you're not looking for the top 20 grossing games. Edit: Thank you to the very few who actually gave some recommendations closer to what I asked for. To be more clear, the kind of games I am looking for are: * Ad-free (it's okay if it's cheap to remove ads as long as the game is not overly monetized and cluttered) * Simple, quick * Online / remote * Asynchronous (not required)

    Is there a way to hide posts that have identical titles on identical sibling communities? My feed gets cluttered really fast when I'm subbed to a big community on two different instances because people often crosspost. I'm tempted to leave one, but I don't want to miss anything.

    Is there any chance we'll see another paid premium tier that *only* removes ads? I really don't want another subscription, but I also can't justify $100 just to remove ads.
