Oh, no, I had no issue with your thoughts! I literally meant what I said and that perhaps I should just learn to cherish the time in our lives more and not try to struggle for something that’s effectively, most likely unattainable. I don’t know; I’m still thinking about it, but no, you said nothing wrong or problematic. It’s a difficult topic no matter how you slice it…

Huh, then I wonder if I may need to go older. Ironic. Well, I’m just using Bluetooth for now lol… I know, not the best…

so i use a fork.

Which?

Then mecha it is!

lest you collapse the waveform and lose superposition.

But then I could reach my destination instantly!

Or they’re just not picky, ha.

Thankfully, the right-to-repair movement is growing as wins stack up.

Huh? I don’t understand your dismissal; not every ex-believer instantly goes atheist, you know.

I could not get that thing to transfer files… but I also see it’s had multiple updates this month, so maybe it’s resolved my issues…

It’s not really my jam

I watched someone’s entire playthrough of it on YouTube, which I find to be a decent middle ground. In fact, someone else I know doesn’t even game any more and just watches playthroughs; better to see an expert do it with insightful or fun commentary than to get frustrated from not knowing what to do, etc. when we have such limited time in our lives anyway. Maybe that’s why I generally prioritize roguelites nowadays; if I’m gonna play something, I wanna ensure it’s a unique challenge that possibly not even the devs have ever exactly seen, and not simply be treated like a rat in a fixed maze to figure out precisely or struggle otherwise when other people have done it.

Anyway, I digress; Infested Planet is $1.94 USD for another recommendation, and it’s awesome. The trailer undersells it if anything.

had an imagining

You do know which community we’re commenting in, right? It’s not like everyone can just immediately slice off decades-long-held beliefs right away…

I don’t know, but I don’t think we should judge in that way; maybe he ran out of money for therapy or something.

Hmm. Thanks, though I’m seeking universal /offline so if I get URLs in other platforms, I won’t have to turn to the browser to purge them of junk. Or maybe this could be converted into a standalone program…

Interesting. I’ve often wondered if I should try to learn SQL… I suppose it can’t hurt to git gud.

I never knew about virtual particles. Huh… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_particle

Partially because where I stand fluctuates daily

One of my friends thinks divine beings are aliens, perhaps time-traveling ones given their godlike powers as Scripture sometimes seems to describe when it comes to the unfathomable. I’ve wondered if this whole life and universe is a simulation in a supercomputer, of which God is the developer, who we’d meet at the end of our “lives.” But I don’t know…

I haven’t played many such titles, but Harmonies on Board Game Arena was generally enjoyable.

Hmm… that is tricky. Yeah, I guess alt accounts it is… unless we just ask people to make communities.

Well, the hope/fantasy would be that humanity would survive and figure out the universe’s heat death problem, and that we’d carry forward together. There is no point to just surviving alone, true.

Memory is a flaw of the flesh.

Memory is flawed but is not a flaw; it’s perhaps the single greatest thing we’ve (all of us organisms, human or not, have) got of life experience. If I knew I was gonna succumb to dementia and it was deemed irreversible then kill me now lol. But since we don’t know that… it’d sure be nice to retain, and have the opportunity to form new, memories and not just see all our joys or the fruit of our labor come to an end.

I didn’t mean to dismiss them; maybe my wording could have been better. I’m curious about where it’s being seen; sure, I don’t need to know, but I want to know.

It’s your choice to let your past decisions haunt you, though. You can either focus on the pain or on the lessons learned. The past can’t be changed either way, right? It’s a matter of perspective.

I’m generally grateful for my current life situation, even if it could be better in certain ways and even though I could have certainly made better decisions in my past; the results of my choices, optimal and suboptimal, have still shaped my thinking and current day-to-day life into what it currently is. So that combined with the crumbling of my conviction of the existence of souls is what has driven me into this existential crisis, I suppose.
