Oh my god, that's awful. I am in shock people are dismantling our healthcare system and their voters think it's a good idea.

Which Provence are you in?

I loved exile so much! It was made by pesto studios and I feel like cyan wouldn't want to make any of the non cyan Myst games. However they sought after and received the rights to all of the Myst games. So who knows, maybe they would.

This demos so well! I played the original 1997 Riven, I hope 2024 Riven can make an impression on newcomers!

It's so deep, expansive and immersive and I'm not sure if there is anything else out there that has the same feel.

It's mostly sold as alternate history for the space race, but it's first and foremost a drama.

Drama about people that happen to go to space in an alternate world.

Drama about people having sex with >! their dead children's best friend who they also raised once their parents went to space and died, the repercussions which amazingly happened for multiple seasons, it's kind of weird. !<

The driving force of the show is not the alternate history.

Ok now I want to know where people live, if they have AC, what temperature their bedrooms are and how it effects their night water habits.

I've never tried keeping water by my bed at night, and chugging if I wake up in the middle of it now I'm night bottle curious 🤔

Like, will I feel magically hydrated and limber in the morning? Just another thing that I add to my routine to make me feel great in the morning?

I'll update if I piss the bed.

Do people wake up in the middle of the night and drink a whole bottle of water? Am I missing something?

I'm usually like "don't want to be warm under the covers and need to pee, I don't dare hydrate past 9 pm"

Our RO-filtered water also flash boils. And flash freezes!

Distilled water is okay now that diets are more complete with vitamins. Especially if you're eating your veggies. But that would be expensive and unnecessary 😄

I use RO-filtered water and for fun we safely discovered it does flash boil in the microwave.

I use it in a proper glass tea kettle though. It stay clean for months now, it used to get messy in a few days using tap water. I also think tea steeps tea better in low TDS water. From an osmotic point of view, that makes sense.

Normally our tap water is nearly liquid tums 😅

I'm surprised nobody is talking about accidentally flash-boiling in the microwave. Is that because they microwave the tea bag in the water in the cup? Because if you have clean water without the teabag, you could get a cup of exploding water in your face after you disturb the cup.

Maybe there is enough lead in the water to prevent this in America.

Haha it sounds silly, but you're right to get them to check for contraindications 😄

I started using symbicort for post infection inflammation and irritation. I haven't had a cough longer than a day for years now. Existing over the counter cough medicine should be outlawed for lack of efficacy.

Still get sick though 😮‍💨

Yeah! Who's getting more sad about getting socks every year? As soon as I moved out I started appreciating the gift 😃

If people ask for gift hints I often say "fun socks!"

 

Looks like it will take some time to figure it out, but the developer ljdawson is looking into Lemmy support for sync.

This app is so smooth, and caching posts and comments for offline use while on the plane or in low reception areas is a clutch feature for me.
