It costs ~$150 to build your own CO2 carbonation setup. After that, refills are pretty infrequent at ~$10. That gets you relatively unlimited sparkling water.
If you’re jonesing for specific flavors, flavor powders, extracts, and raw sucralose in bulk on Amazon will run you around $20, or ~$100 total for a decent assortment. It’ll pay for itself in like a year and the powders will last you awhile.
OBOYOBOYY for hyper speed in guitar hero 2 and 3
Shame, because on its face, I thought it was a really interesting technology that solved an underlying infrastructure problem in the fediverse’s makeup.
Railbound is a fun one
ADHD memes apply to everyone sometimes, but you might have ADHD if they start to describe reasons why your life is going poorly rather than funny relatable behaviors that people do.
It’s free in the US, so there’s ~360 million potential users they decided to make things harder for
Ironic because this is the second time I’ve seen this image posted
They used to allow their client to be used to send unsecured SMS. Then they stopped. Whatever they thought they were doing, they killed the simplest path to onboarding laypeople they had. I kinda gave up on signal after that.
You mean they signed up for an app that actually works and generates a feed for you vs one that doesn’t do either of those things?
You suddenly die of cancer that you’ve healed faster than your immune system can kill
I feel like teleportation gets you an ability that makes money just fine. Hell, just invulnerability makes you valuable for cleaning up nuclear accidents like Chernobyl and Fukushima.
Killing Vivec and then getting the message about being doomed was probably my favorite “oh shit” moment of all time.
Slay the spire, FTL, and Into the Breach probably have the most hours from me because the controls are entirely cursor driven and can be paused indefinitely.
Balatro is quickly taking the space that the built-in Windows solitaire game used to.
Those are the ones that I open when my brain can’t brain.
At least one idle game. I just finished antimatter dimensions after a year or so. Starting on NGU idle next.
And one “100% attention” game like outer wilds or hollow knight.
How do I remember what the command even is? Like how would I discover the grep tool without using the Internet?

Ok but what if my Wi-Fi isn’t working
Their official phone app was, and still is, garbage. So I used a 3rd party app.
When Reddit killed API access, they did it in such a way that it killed that entire ecosystem abruptly. I’d have happily paid a small fee for API access to continue using the site, but no such option existed. Even at this point I’d still do it but that option still isn’t there in a way that’s useful.
After that, I found out that the 3rd party app i liked the most, Sync (on Android), had a Lemmy version. So I downloaded it to try it out. And here I am.
Did you know you can turn those beeps off?
I usually gift Wallpaper engine. Not a game but it’s a fantastic tool for personalization.

This is cool. I had no idea about most of these.
