I’d prefer piefeditor, without the double “d”. Unnecessary callback to the other site.

For so long I thought that it meant “silly” or “whimsical”

TIL it’s not that

Kingdom of Shadow by R.A. Knaak.

I played lots of Diablo 2 back then and a friend once went into this small nook with books in a local games shop and showed me they have Diablo books. I wasn’t much of a reader. I read some books that I enjoyed, but moat of them I was made to read.

I wanted to know more about the world of Diablo so I bought it. I mever expected it to grab me as it did. When I came home, I was like “let me read a chapter and go to actually play after”. The boom jumped right into action with the first sentence and the PC was not turned on for 3 days (unheard of until then) as I used every free moment to read the book.

I bought other books in the series right after and then started to branch out to other fantasy series. This is the book that made me a reader. And I can thank a videogame for that.

And lemmy.ml - as evidenced by the comments here.

That looks like it has to be photoshopped… but damn, it’s not.

Three monitors is incredibly handy sometimes.

I have two, but one is in pirtrait mode. I use it when I need to read through a document but also can have two windows one above other to simulate a second monitor and use it like that at work fairly regularly.

Sexually Transmitted Illness I believe.

If this is in any other context than sex, I’m concerned

Well it got one thing right, but missed important context. Aushwitz was primarily a labor camp and crematoria like they had there couldn’t handle it. Aushwitz had the extermination just like a side hustle, so they didn’t need it too big.

Now the likes of Birkenau, not far from Aushwitz - that was a death camp. And with much more massive crematoria to handle the death toll. And that crematoria was destroyed by Nazis when it was clear the Allies will reach them because it was clear evidence of genocide.

Aushwitz is an important site and while chilling and terrible, it doesn’t compare to what was happening elsewhere.

Alternative title: Anthem servers are still online.

I thought it shut down years ago.

Also the EU isn’t real. Grow up

What?

I’d say it’s the intention.

It’s not that I try to ne hardcore. Reddit was alright, but I felt subconciously it is going to shit for some time. But I liked the format, so I stayed. The API fiasco just showed the really bad face of it (mainly how it was handled) and made an opportunity for people to talk more about alternatives. Sure, Lemmy doesn’t have as much stuff as Reddit, especially for more niche topics but I enjoy my stay much more.

I peeked in a couple of times but not for long.

Yes, but what isnthe prize? Is the prize real? Or is it just a construct that we imagine because we expect it? Can you even truly experience the prize?

There were also cases of people adopting gods. Just going “hey, this god you worship is cool, going to worship the god as well”

As a child, has to be Diablo 2. I had no idea what I was doing but I had fun. And it got me into reading, actually. I read some books now and then, but wasn’t an avid reader. But when I played Diablo 2, I found out there are books from the Diablo world and got one. I remember when I got home I was like “ok, since I got the book I will read one chapter and then go to playing” - well I didn’t turn on the PC for 3 days until I have finished the book. And then went to get more.

Another was World of Warcraft (though I was not exactly a kid by then). It made me fall in love with MMOs, a genre which I still love (though no game holds me today quite as WoW did - still hope for one though). And thanks to it I got to know people I’m friends with to this day.

I would if I could. A plank and a side plank were one of them. Other than that, no idea as I was shown the excercises, but was never really given names. And even then, I don’t live in English speaking country so might not be useful anyway.

It was mostly about strenghtening the core and stomach muscles, without straining the back much.

Not sure about pain levels. First time around, it was quite bad. I just suddenly couldn’t move, everything hurt so bad. Not quite blacking out pain but it was bad. I first did like one or two weeks of intensive back muscle stretching to be even able to do the other excercises. Currently the pain is not bad, but it is making my life dificult a bit as it blocks some movements.

I started experiencing this after 30. In my case it’s back muscles tightening up, because of bad posture that lead to the weakening of the core muscles which put too much strain on the back.

Got shown some excercises and got better after a while. Got back every once in a while, but usually I managed to get it under control.

Just got back again and wouldn’t get away for weeks now. Sounds a lot like what you have. I’m going ti schedule the doctor again, I recommend you do the same. This shouldn’t be normal.

I’m sure I’d notice eventually but it was really @[email protected] who tiped me off that this is the case.
