So much more can be done and achieved by electing the right politicians and pushing them to do what needs to be done.

Are you assuming that I am not doing that, too?

I’m in my 30s, not a boomer, nor an idiot. I am probably more eco-conscious than you if I had to guess. I literally own a solar panel, 2 power stations, and a PHEV (I drive like a turtle intentionally to maximize the battery’s longevity and coast and avoid coming to a complete stop as often as possible between destinations), and have shamelessly, openly criticized people at my workplace who misuse/ignore our recycling procedures.

What I’m saying is that we can only do so much, and there’s no point in living your life in nonstop negativity. I know that I am doing my part so I will be actively happy about that. Your only defense to step back further is to tell me to join the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement (VHEM), to which I say: sure, but you first.

Avoiding the blue line, which would kill us much faster, is positive. Why be a negative Nancy?

Oh, right, based on what (little) I’ve seen, yeah…

That depends on what you’re printing!

Interesting, I hadn’t thought of that, thanks!

Thanks, I’ll check it out!

then that wouldn’t be platform-agnostic.

Syncthing is Win+Mac+Linux-compatible! That’s actually what I was going for, but didn’t think of looking for a portable version for some reason… Thanks for the idea!

Or 3D-printing!

This was my experience, yeah. It’s possible but one should be totally disconnected for a time first.

it had a tremendous effect on my actual worldview

How so?

Dang. I wish I could enjoy replaying it, but nothing will capture the magic of the first time. I always love watching others experience my enjoyed titles live for their first time, though.

Thanks, I didn’t think of treating a non-24/7 server like Syncthing. I may tinker with Owncloud, then…

I do have that, haha, yeah. There appears to not be.

I’ve heard of this, but I can’t self-host as I lack reliable Internet access at home and don’t want to run a machine 24/7, or am I misunderstanding how CalDAV works? Can it operate solely via Syncthing, in one way or another?

To clarify, I don’t pay for an ISP-provided Internet subscription at all (some people were really picky on here about this wording and me not just saying, “I don’t have Wi-Fi at home”); it’s way cheaper for me (saving >$600/year) to just carry a hotspot device with me at all times.

Unending has a bunch of piece-pushing (and you must get enemies to push each other for you to survive)!

Use Stirling-PDF’s edit mode if all you’re doing is drawing lines, adding text, and highlighting; saving makes it always save a copy and never overwrite the original unless you tell it to.

Sure thing! It’s excellent in bite-size chunks, yeah!
