Well, they are heavily edited for sure. Lithops aren't that bright. They survive by looking like rocks, not candy lmao.

But they are fun to grow (I have several)

You have received tons of useful responses, so I will not add more, except to tell you that the change is extremely worth it, easier than it seems and extremely entertaining.

I personally use Kubuntu (I love the KDE environment) and sometimes play Steam games by using Proton.

Good luck on your Linux journey!

I didn't know this! It's very interesting

@PerfectDark@lemmy.world this looks worthy of being included in one of your posts!

I got Fantasy Life I and I can't put it down, so that's what I'm playing... For the foreseeable future

Hi, neighbour!! I'm very happy in Lemmy.zip too

These look good! Mind sharing who the artist is? I'd like to check their work for more!

I knew he was gone when I started reading his books, and still I wept for hours when the realisation fully hit me.

Through Discworld I really felt that he was, somehow, in a way, my friend. And then I finished all the books, remembered he was gone and I mourned him like a dear friend.

I wait for your posts eagerly. Not only they are fun and interesting to read, they also keep me updated about the gaming world, so I can chat with my students about things they like.

So yeah, your posts are enjoyed by a lot of people, even indirectly!

Now I'm considering giving S.T.A.L.K.E.R. a chance... Great post as usual! Thank you!!

 
 

The original artist is VirusAP on YouTube, and the video I got the frame from is this: The Challenge

This is the original frame:

It was very hard to do, but I'm overall pleased with the result. I'm grateful to VirusAP for drawing such a great Penelope, with her rage, cunning and strength!

 

She was gifted to me last year, with only two flowers that fell in a few days (I guess the change of environments hit her hard), and I was feeling quite pessimistic about her future, because I've never taken care of an orchid.

Apparently I'm doing something right! I can't wait to see all the flowers open to share them with y'all!!!!!

 

Hi! I can't draw to save my life, but since I discovered colouring books (I didn't know they had them for adults, and especially I didn't know they made non-mandala ones!!!!) I've been feeling like a kid again.

I'm even using the same coloured pencils I bought and carried around since primary school.

I used Staedler Pencil Noris Colours and Royal Talens colour pencils, both packs of 24 colours.

So my message to any person that itches to create something but feels that it's a huge task (I got overwhelmed drawing), please do give colouring books a chance.

You can get nice colours for little money (I paid 7€ for the Royal Talens pack) and the books themselves aren't particularly expensive, especially if you are slooooow colouring like I am.

Don't be afraid to try something new, and don't let your age stop you from choosing cute books with huge drawings. Paint rainbows, colour flowers, take your time drawing sunglasses on the sun!!!

 

It's mainly about the war in Mali, how it got to that point, and even some of the people that participated in it got more "page-time" than the librarians (around a 90% of the book, I'd dare say). Who are basically a single man.

I really wanted to read about saving manuscripts, so I'm very disappointed.

I wouldn't say that the book is bad, it's just that the title is clickbait material.

If any of y'all know of other books that REALLY talk about saving/protecting/restoring documents, please do tell me the titles!

 

I discovered that I can have Mullvad activated at the same time as ProtonVPN, while Proton is running from the Firefox extension. I'm on Linux.

When I look up my IP and location, the one that shows up is Proton's, and Mullvad doesn't detect itself on its website.

My questions are:

  1. Are all my programs running through Mullvad, except Firefox?
  2. Can websites get confused because of the conflicting information?
  3. I was just playing around, but does this have any practical utility?

Thank you all in advance!

I'm really interested in that game, but I don't know if it will have a discount on Winter Sale.

Does anyone know? Thanks in advance

 

I'm trying to find any redeemable qualities that make me feel better for the time I spent reading it. I could have put it down, but the raving reviews made me think that it would get better.

It didn't.

I loathed it. With passion.

 

I'm not in a hurry, but I'd like to know if I can make Biotech mine now or if it's worth waiting.

Thank you for your answers!

 

It's a simple adapter USB-C male to female, in an angle, making the cable go behind the Deck, so it doesn't wiggle on top.

 

My laptop is old enough to vote, and therefore anything beyond Stardew Valley made it collapse, but it works great for my daily tasks. However, after trying a Switch recently (I consider the Lite to be the perfect handheld, size wise), I got an itch that could only be scratched with more games.

I found a second hand Deck for a reasonable price and I CAN'T BELIEVE I WAS MISSING SO MANY THINGS.

Particularly I've been amazed by No Man's Sky, because I can see other players!!!! And visit them!!!!!! I can't do that on Switch!

I'm also enjoying Witcher 3 and Rimworld!

Discovering that the SD can be used as a computer too, with all the bells and whistles has been very fun.

My one and greatest complaint is its size... I get that it's necessary to add such a big amount of buttons, but my fingers are getting a full workout trying to remain in position.

Still, amazing, amazing machine!!

(Y'all can feel my enthusiasm levels by counting the amount of "!" In this text)
