Question: why does nobody else save and exit with ":x" or ":x!"?

This is me whenever someone asks me to stay in their team.

Suddenly all the apparent skill I displayed last game is revealed to have been an illusion

I can see them just fine! Just to make sure, this is a Mastodon account, so I'm not sure you can see their posts on Lemmy

I'm sorry, this is one of the most amazing twists on this meme I've ever seen. I burst out laughing. Is it OC?

I dunno, I liked it deep fried

How is your own dating life affected by this? Are you mono? Are the people you date weirded out or put off by this arrangement at all?

Also, I need this turned into a diagram!

How do you clean your floor without a mop? Is floor cleaner liquid still allowed?

Also what do you use a mop for without a floor?

I've always used Al and Au in mine but I'm in a research institute and so I can't speak for what people use in real cameras, but it does appear that Ag is somewhat used in wire bonding, so you can be right!

But every element is pure, so it doesn't make a lot of sense.

Was this purity in the sense of "absence of impurities" or "absence of evil"? Because if it's the latter I'm pretty sure I've met a few Si wafers with evil agendas.

Not an expert, but CMOS sensors (which are the ones used in cameras? I think?) do not use silver, do they? It's practically all silicon. (CMOS = Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor, where the semiconductor is Si, the metal is Al or more recently Poly-Si and the Oxide is SiO2 obtained by oxidizing the Si)

Unless Si also prevents vampire images from being seen? Does vampire lore explicitly say that all materials were tested and only Silver has anti-vampire properties?

I could be wrong on any of the info I just told you, even a cursory Google search can fail me.

I remember that at the beginning of Voyager. Janeway tries that on B'elana and she responds with something similar.

People have mentioned good options such as books, and they have mentioned hobbies, but since apparently you like video games, why not try developing some games?

It's free, just download a game engine such as Unity, Unreal Engine or Godot (my vote goes to Godot as it's open source but you can't go wrong, try whichever sounds more appealing and if you don't like one check the others out) and follow some tutorials. That's where YouTube can shine again!

It's a great way to exercise your creativity and learn some programming. If you don't like programming, you can join a team and just be a designer, thinking up gameplay concepts. Or the other way around, someone else can help you design the game while you code it.

Or... Maybe you don't like programming. Why not try making digital art? It could be pixel art, 3D modeling (both of which go really well with a game development hobby, but with 3D modeling you can transition into 3D printing) or just plain old art, digital or not.

It's just an example. It's amazing how many things are available for us to learn on the internet, you cá try anything you ever had a passing interest on. Always had trouble drawing? Go watch some tutorials and try again! Want to learn a new language? Get on Duolingo to learn some basics and then watch some TV shows or movies in other languages!

I know when you are really, truly bored, all of these will sound dreadful. But stick with it past the initial boredom and you will find something that will make you unable to stop.

Keep us updated!

At 1/2^42 odds, you're unlikely to have a large enough army to man a V Wing, much less defend the Republic
