Nothing specifically planned, just continuing with the stuff I was already reading. My Feelings can Wait, and My Intern Bullied Me Again have been pretty enjoyable for the most part, and you've already mentioned. A surprisingly good one is Talk Dirty To Me, alot of deeper ideas behind it.

I best celeste

Missed the part about being legally required to trans your gender after doing it

1. disable notifications for most apps. I'm not sure if you can do it for iPhone, but any android phone, you can stop any app from sending any type of notification, even separating based on category. Eg. Turning off all youtube notifications except for security ones.

2. Have your kid read books, this will do wonders in helping them get ahead near the start of their school life, as well as doing wonders on their creativity and imagination.

3. Limit their screen time, and force them to find something else to do with their time. My mum did this to me, I hated it growing up, but I'm incredibly grateful now. It forced me to find ways to have fun without technology.

4. Drop these restrictions down when they are a teenager. Teenagers want freedom. Hopefully, through making your kid read books while growing up, they will choose to read books in their teenage years. I know I did, and both my sisters did.

Although this is the thoughts from someone who is 20, going off their own recent experience and from watching their siblings, I would definitely love to hear thoughts from others about this, tho.

So much space, don't know why people are complaining

Huh, must be a region thing

Interesting, I'm using an s20fe for around 3 years now, and haven't had it happen once, was using an a50 before that, and don't remember it happening there either

For me, every other music app is missing alot of the songs I want to listen to (Cover songs, and remixes are the big 2) and they are only available on yt music.

I still pirate my music, using YouTube music revanced, but the main reason I do it is because I find it to expensive for how often I use it. I don't use it that often, mainly just when cooking dinner, if there was a way for me to use YouTube music for $5 a month, I would probably pay for it.

Also for me it has to be YouTube music, as alot of the songs I listen to aren't on other platforms, (song covers, and remixes).

Yes, I pirate, and I pirate alot. Games, books, shows, software, I do it all. But I also buy stuff, mainly games, occasionally books. I'm am not in a position where I have the sort of money to buy everything I want.

My piracy philosophy is mainly to almost always pirate it first. If I like the game enough, I'll buy the game when I have the money. I have done this alot, A Hat in Time, Hollow Knight, and recently Baldurs Gate 3.

With books it's alot more difficult, as they tend to be alot more expensive than games, especially for the series I read. (Manga and Light Novels). As there will fairly often be around 30$ per volume where I live, and close to 12 volumes total. And that's if you can even buy them in the country, or if they have even been translated officially, which if they haven't, then piracy is your only choice to read it.

Regarding shows, I basically only watch Anime, and the only way to really stream Anime is crunchyroll, which region locks alot of the shows, gives hardly any money back to the actual creators of the shows, then uses the money they get to make awful shows. Pirating anime is realistically the only way to enjoy it hassle free.

For software, everything is license based now, I'm willing to do one off purchases at a reasonable price (something like steam wallpaper engine), but I hate recurring fees. I pirate software like photoshop.

Ultimately piracy isn't really as bad as people tend to think it is, it's largely just people enjoying the stuff that they would never have been able to pay to enjoy anyway. It's especially good for people with less disposable income in helping them find where they can spend the money on things they enjoy, such as with me with the games I mentioned earlier.

Right now, few, but in 6 months, 95% of the studios that used Unity will be using Godot, simply because it's much lighter and is much more suited for the Unity style of game (Hollow Knight, Celeste, Among US, etc) than unreal is.

I had something similar a while back, where it was waking up from sleep for no reason. I can't remember the exact reason, but it had to do with a hardware being allowed to wake the device. I disabled it from being able to wake the machine and haven't had a problem again. You can use the cmd to find which device woke your pc.

I liked using unity cause it was faster, more light weight, and had much more community based things around it. I've been mainly developing in unreal this past year due to it being a group thing, but I'm gonna be fully switching over to Godot for any personal or individual development now.

I can see why you would think that, but there's alot of stuff unreal just isn't that good at, things like 2d games are a massive struggle to work with in unreal, so it'll gain more popularity, but mainly from devs making 3d games with a focus on high graphics

I use it not rooted, on both an android tablet and phone. Haven't run into any issues, it uses a VPN to block the ads

Edit: there was one issue where youtube wouldn't update the watch history, to fix this just allow s.youtube.com on the allow list

Cover songs have always been a copyright violation, it's just that musicians don't go after them cause they will almost always look like the asshole for doing so, and the companies normally dont because the amount of money they would be able to get out of the lawsuit wouldn't normally be worth it.

I've been reading Catulus Syndrome and started on Your Scent is a Little Sweet since the official English translation has started to be released.

Catulus Syndrome is so far a pretty standard slice of life with yuri sprinkled in, enjoyable if you like that sort of stuff, and Your Scent is a Little Sweet has been good so far, creating a world that seems pretty unique.

I recently started and caught up on these 2 series

Ki ni Natteru Hito ga Otoko Janakatta

Hana ni Arashi

Both absolutely fantastic so far

Yeah, it's been like this for a while now, although 12-2 and 12-3 are usually much more difficult than this rotation. A few patches back though the hardest chamber was 12-3, it's good that they changed this to 12-1 because it's easier to change teams and try new strategies.

omg, congratulations, it's always amazing to hear about moments like these

I still think 12-1 is too difficult compared to the other chambers and jumping from floor 11, but so much better than last rotation, 12-2 and 12-3 are at the perfect level tho

Ooh, that's exciting, it's a great show, I'm looking forward to this

Alot of the larger instances have user donations set up so that the servers can be maintained, this is how lemmy.world works

If they put enough effort into it, then it will be great. Subnautica is a game that is almost only in the water, and that game is fantastic, it's just about making sure the movement feels fluid and controlled.

God, I love this show, hopefully it gets another season

Hmm, not sure then, guess my problem is slightly different, when I open the app it defaults to selected sorting method on everything even though I have everything turned off, but blocked communities are being blocked for me on my account feeds

its because the default is everything feed hopefully it changes soon, or we get the option to change it to a specific account

Also saving for me, have Eula and Kokomi, don't want the other two, my fontain funds are looking golden

The best of friends

yeah, the largest one is k6qw, with 52 thousand users, but only 4 users online atm compared to lemmy.world, 42.8 thousand users, 5.63 thousand online

On jerboa it has how long ago it was posted, then how long ago it was edited in the top right of the comment

the 99.46% uptime is also insane for the number of users, well done @ruud@lemmy.world for doing an incredible job on this instance

It's a light novel, which means it's just a Japanese novel basically, it's a lot more like reading a classic book than a manga or comic, it has a manga, but that's still really early on into the story. It should also be getting an anime this year if you prefer that.

Definitely give it a read if you get the chance (and enjoy reading), it's a fantastic story.

Rae and Claire from the light novel I'm in Love with the Villainess

welcome, hope you enjoy your stay

I finished If You Could See Love a couple of days ago, not the most amazing thing I've ever read but still pretty enjoyable, and I've also been reading For Her, I'd Give It My All, got about 30 chapters left to go, and that's been a good fun read so far.

oooohh, a lot of fantastic ones, im hoping Gundam ends happily, cause those two are just so cute together.

I'm using jerboa, if you go to the community page of the community you want to block, then click the 3 dot menu, you can block the community from there.

I love Lycoris Recoil as well, the characters are so well designed and bounce off each other perfectly

The anime isn't that lewd, a couple of scenes that could be considered lewd, but that's it. It gets alot of fan art cause it's popular, and thus more lewd fan art. There's alot of SFW fan art as well. The anime is fantastic, and you should definitely watch it if you get the chance, although the yuri elements tend to take a back seat throughout the show.
