Guh. Amen to this! I’m in the same boat. Sometimes I just bring a Linux laptop with me to work just to have a break from the work computer.

This.

I’m playing Pokémon HeartGold for the first time. I’ve always kind of liked Pokemon but I’ve never really gotten into one of the games properly, so I’m trying with this one.

I enjoy using Brave Search. But it sucks for images for some reason. I use DDG for images.

Thanks for the TLDR, nice to know the reasons behind the name. And good reasons they are too.

Agree 100%. I always though the name suggested it wasn’t quite a complete game. In fact at first I didn’t think it was a game at all.

Rural Japan.

My kids (2 and 4) can use chopsticks already. Plenty of restaurants around here where you won’t see a spoon, fork or knife. (However, it’s certainly possible to ask the staff for western cutlery, and in the main cities they’re more likely to be prepared for that question)

Ah yeh, I tried StartPage for a while. IIRC the image results page wasn’t so great. Not many filter options and so on.

I think Ecosia pulls results from Bing if that’s any better? I use them occasionally but generally prefer DDG.

And I feel like that happened really quickly. It doesn’t feel like that long ago that Edge was a nice, nimble browser. Not this bloated naggy beast it is now.

Who’s monopoly are we talking about? If that’s the goal then Firefox + DuckDuckGo would be more sensible right?

For me it was more a system than an specific game. I got a second hand GameBoy when I was like 5 or 6 and have been gaming consistently since then. Probably the highlight of that period was Super Mario though.

Yeh, it works pretty great. And they’re working hard to cut the waiting time down.
