If it’s just a few nights, I wouldn’t worry about it.

Can you remove their access to the room where the washing machine is? Mine is in the attic, behind a door and a stair gate, so they couldn’t even come close.

Quake 3 Arena is quick fun and is available for free: https://archive.org/details/quake-3-arena

Yeah, even in the Randstad, for distances up to like 15 km it’s often faster to cycle somewhere than take public transport.

Not a game, but I think it fits the general theme: DragonBall Z Abridged. +/- 10 minute shorts abridgeing (and parodying) DragonBall Z. I never watched the real show, but I think they’re hilarious.

I’m working on losing a few kgs for playing sports, so I’m trying to make changes that are sustainable for the rest of my life. E.g. quark and granola instead of bread for breakfast, and no more snacks in between meals (RIP stroopwafels).

That way I only need to change habits once instead of multiple times like when you’re dieting, and the effect is slow but noticeable.

I just switched from Sync to Boost because of the lack if updates. The interface is slightly different, but you get used to that after a day. The only thing I really miss is opening image previews by long-pressing.

I’ve trained calisthenics, plyometrics and power yoga at home for years and I’m very happy with the results. Just search on Youtube for advice and workouts you like. Use your common sense: look for people focusing on tried-and-true ideas and don’t use performance enhancing drugs.

My favorite channels are Athlean-X, Calisthenicmovement, The Stone Circle and Breathe and Flow.

Also, get a mirror or film yourself to check your form, or have someone watch you. After a while, you’ll start feeling whether something is right or wrong, but at the start it’s useful to have a visual check.

StarCraft 2 was the perfect competitive RTS, with the best pro scene. I lived and breathed that game for years. Sucks that Blizzard decided to stop supporting it.

Thank you!

Which Linux distro are you using? I’m considering switching over somewhere this year, but I’m not sure which distro would be best for gaming + regular user stuff.

In my experience as a metalhead, punks want to look tough and flashy: spikes, strong colours, sturdy clothes, etc.

Metalheads want to look epic like Legolas (or, in the case if black metal, angry Legolas).

As said, thrift shops will have lots of stuff that fit either profile, or both. Just think about what you want your character to be like and have fun! There’s no fashion police, so you can’t really mess up.

Besides, lots of metalheads wear kilts to concerts and festivals, so that’s a good start. Add a black shirt and black boots and you’re done with the basic look.

I think it’s a good way to show-don’t-tell. You could add a few more of these interactions to develop the plot point and make sure readers don’t miss it the first time around (e.g. if the reader doesn’t know what a nipple piercing is, or doesn’t associate it with teen rebellion).

Thanks for the info, sounds good!

Thanks for the tip!

Which Linux distro are you using? I’m also considering switching because of Windows 10 going EOL, but there are a lot to choose from.

Random idea, but maybe you could offer to drive her around for a few days, so she can relax and you can spend some time together.
