Get some canned chilis in adobo; that sauce adds a nice smoky flavor.

Also if you want to thicken it up, crumble some tortilla chips into it.

The cables are extra long so they have plenty of slack, too.

That’s depressingly common in modern times.

It’s easier if you live near a city with lots of people, but going to meetup.com or similar will show you lots of communities that are eager to get more people involved.

It is always easier to stay home so sometimes I need to make myself go out and be social, but consistency is key. Showing up every week to a meetup will root you in a community more that once every couple months.

Find an IRL community that means something to you. You have to feel like you belong somewhere, and people need a support group to help when they’re down. You can’t feel happy if you’re lonely.

The Monkey Island game that came out a year or two ago was pretty great too if you want a modern take on the genre.

I imagine you’ve played some of the others, but if not you should do 1 & 2 immediately.

If you like point-and-click adventure games, there are a bunch in spooky territory:

The Colonel’s Bequest

Grim Fandango

Maniac Mansion/Day of the Tentacle

There are more, but these are the ones I’d start with if you haven’t played them.

Fate of Atlantis is a cannon story to me. I never saw the two new movies, so that’s the end of the franchise for me, unless the new game is any good.

Make sure you look up a healthy diet for your bird; most parrots need fresh veggies daily. It can take some time to get them used to it, but it’s well worth the effort to have a healthy bird.

If it is a pellet/seed mix, you should likely change it out daily along with the water.

That’s crazy, thanks for sharing.

I like that hardware, too.

Oh, that’s very interesting!

I do have a 4 that I use as an emulation machine. I should try some older DOS games, I guess. Thanks!

Can you emulate x86 on the pi? I thought that was really inefficient.

I’m currently using a trick on my Windows 11 work machine to get the old UI for file explorer by going through the control panel and going up a directory.

I’ll be so pissed the day they strip it out, because their new design language is ridiculously slow and terrible for the sake of “cleanliness.”

They asked random people on the Internet for dosage advice when there is professional advice available for free.

Why not use informed free advice instead of dubious free advice? How is that responsible?

This is a question for your pharmacist; they should be happy to help if you give them a call.

Not trying to be rude, but it’s a bad idea to take medical advice from people on the Internet.

Oh, there’s just some fun games on the Wii that are impossible to play elsewhere, like Boom Blox or Excite Truck.

Is that a wiimote? Good for you.

Thanks! It’s the Google photos version, but same idea.

People of Lemmy, what was the make of your first car and your elementary school’s name?

Seamless coop plus a randomizer is also a great and slightly insane time.
