3dfx Voodoo2, followed by a Riva tnt2. Good times were had.

They're still immeasurably better than Spotify, both for artists and in terms of bitrate...

I used to be very skinny, like 58 kgs at 186. I met my wife when I was 18 and she loves skinny dudes 😂

Regardless, I did feel self conscious about my skininess because I was bullied for it in school. I've both accepted myself, but I also gained about 15kg of muscle by doing starting strength. I'm by no means ripped, but I do feel like I carry myself with more confidence and that goes a long way.

Also, my dude, take this from someone in a 20 year relationship... Looks are neat and all, but finding someone you can actually stand, spend a lot of time and plan a life with is a significantly more worthwhile trait to pursue.

I know I'm in the wrong for missing her text

You are not.

Your partner has some issues she seems to need to work through. Entertaining her delusions probably won't help her.

Lol, have you been following the news much?

Except nearly half of the people impacted didn't vote leave...

Maybe lefties boycotting Tesla will cause MAGAs to go electric... Silver lining?

Immediately lost me at non-tactile keyboard. Who wants this.

My neighbour has a cat called Stevie. Stevie hangs out with us a lot and we look after him when my neighbour is away.

Yesterday we found Stevie very unwell in our garden. We took him to the neighbour and she immediately rushed him to the vet.

She mentioned the vet was 200 dollars which was a big unexpected expense for her. Her son's birthday is on Monday and she won't be able to do anything for his birthday now.

My wife and I are fortunate enough for 200 dollars to not be a lot of money for us and we want to help, but I'm unsure how.

One option would be that we leave her a little card with 100 dollars and write that we wanted to help because we care about Stevie too.

Another idea is we ask her to do some gardening for us (that's her job, and we're too busy to do it ourselves right now).

I don't want her to feel patronised or awkward about any of this... Happy to take insights.

If tofu is still ten times better for the planet than cheese I don't think it's "mostly beef" that's the problem.

People want to change nothing and point at corporations or billionaires like their own choices couldn't reduce suffering and emissions.

If people are going to switch, they should really know better and switch to mastodon

I literally can not wait for this. Cycling there is so awful.

Suck a shame they don't do a town centre upgrade. The Grey Lynn shops could use some love.

Went her as a side trip on the Rees Dart track from Queenstown. It was a pretty grueling ascent from the hut, climbing almost 1000 metres on scree and rocks. The 18 km round trip took us quite a while!

This hike (5 days total) was absolutely stunning.
