Super cool to know this instance is being physically run in a slrpnk way too :)

Kudos on getting the solar panels installed!

Definetly! I'm always happy to over share about one of my niche special interests lol

Makes sense. Thanks for the additional info!

I do love games that are essentially just building simulators. For example, I love playing sims 4 exclusively to build and decorate. I mostly found tiny glade lacking in options and customization. Maybe they'll expand and refine it though & in a few years I can try the game out again :)

Tiny glade was interesting. I only played the demo, & it was enjoyable for a half hour or so, but I kind of ran through everything & it didn't seem like there was enough content to justify buying the full game or playing more.

I also felt like there wasn't enough ability to customize different aspects, like I could place flowers but couldn't choose how they're arranged within that space.

Did you play the full release or just the demo?

I've been playing a bunch of SSX tricky. It's super old, but I absolutly love it even 20 years later. I've been playing on the PC using a ps2 emulator.

I've also been playing simpsons hit and run which really holds up. It's a simpsons version of grand theft auto & it's just fun. It's another emulated ps2 game.

Lastly I've been playing survival fountain of youth. It's a fairly recent release. You play as a shipwrecked Spaniard looking for the fountain of youth. I enjoy the base building & exploration -- the story line is fiiine but nothing special.

Whoa, I had no clue about Dali!

I read this article for anyone else who is curious about the situation.

Yeah the professional is a straight up endorsement of pedophilia 🤢 luckly i never liked that one to begin with, so it wasn't much of a loss to avoid it lol

Its maiwenn that I was refering to. They met when she was 12 and formed a relationship & maiwenn openly talks about how their relationship was part of the inspiration for the movie "the professional" -- which is a movie that celebrates the sexualization of the child lead & characterizes the child as the instigator of the romantic relationship. The original script was apperently even more transparent about it's endorsement of pedophilia and had to be reigned in during production.

Meiwenn has very openly talked about their relationship in interviews & many of the films she has directed incorporate autobiographical aspects. She does not see any problem with her marriage to luc besson and thus freely admits to things. I'm remembering reading an interview where she talked about how they knew eachother for about a year before she really fell in love with him and they began dating, which puts her at 13 (12 plus a year of knowing each other). I think it also referenced that they met because he was a friend of her parents, though I'm having a hard time finding that interview right now.

My personal opinion is that they got married after she was already pregnant & had likely been intimate for years prior to the marriage at 16. I think the story that he waited until she was 15 comes from the international push back they received after luc became famous and people found out about the relationship.

I did a deep dive on this when I was in the hospital last year & happened to watch the fifth element lol. I noticed on the wiki that he was married at different times to two of the stars & then spent like 3 days reading everything i could find on him and his overly young exs.

I has this happen with the fifth element. I found out Luc Besson is a pedophile who has gotten multiple young girls pregnant. Including a 15 year old he started seeing when she was 13, who he left when she turned 21. The movie is so different knowing about him and his views & it really changes how i watch the movie. Its no longer a fun feel good movie for me. Especially because two of his young wives star in the film.

Will you link the thread? Sounds interesting

Omg our cats look so similar :)

Edited to add: her siblings had shorter hair more like yours. Heres a pic of the whole family

The photon front-end looks clean and runs well on both my mobile and desktop. I do agree with another commenter (coolkat, I think) that's it's not as cute and unique as the current front end, but maybe that's possible to change -- you did mention that it can have a custom color scheme. Or maybe it's good to have it clean and polished, I guess it's just personal preference.

I appriciate all the work getting done & hope the vegans find this instance to be welcoming and respectful :)

Oh and if replacing ssds starts to get expensive because of poor optimization, I would be down to donate to the cause. Hopefully a way to fix that issue comes along somewhat soon.
