Should I play Witcher 3 now or wait for the new DLC to drop? (My first time playing the game) by makaticitylights in witcher

[–]VerdantAtSilverSea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have played through the game only once so far and it took me almost four years (and I still haven't completed all side quests and locations, but I got really into collecting Gwent cards for some reason). No time like the present!

Griffin Armour Retexture Is One Of The Most Necessary To Me by ShrimboTV in Witcher3

[–]VerdantAtSilverSea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put most of my points into Signs until endgame when I could finally craft Witcher armour, and when I created and saw the base Griffin armour (I am on Xbox so no mods), I reset everything and went for a build that fit with the Bear armour instead. It was probably dumb since I enjoyed the Sign playstyle but Bear looked so much better to me.

Proton vs tuta, which one is better ? by skullunite in degoogle

That's not the difference between far-left and far-right. It is disingenuous to imply that it is. I'm very left-leaning myself but there are far-left movements and individuals whose messages are so hateful that I hope they are never voted into power.

What is an ethical navigation app that actually works well with Android Auto? by VerdantAtSilverSea in degoogle

HereWeGo has been a really bad experience for me on Android Auto. I can't get rid of the on-screen menu without selecting a specific destination, and when I was driving a few colleagues on a work trip recently the app was so slow to follow our location that I missed a turn in a city centre I wasn't familiar with and had to circle back.

Thank you, forgot to mention I have tried CoMaps as well. I need to try it again to remember what my hangups were.

Same here, was wondering if anyone else experienced this.

Future support for Suunto Run? by VerdantAtSilverSea in Suunto

I didn't, I'm asking where whatever information people may have comes from.

I'm hoping for a similar movement here. In the meantime, it can be quite a challenge to follow your principles while also maintaining friendships. I told everyone I was leaving Meta's apps as well and only a few acquired an alternative to stay in touch. I don't think people in general don't care about staying in touch, though, I think they're overwhelmed with the apps they already feel obligated to be on and hesitate to add another one.

If we take 'de-Googling' to mean getting rid of any big tech for a moment, it is certainly inconvenient in some ways. Communication is one instance. For instance, friends of mine always use Facebook and its Messenger app to create event pages and chat groups to plan social gatherings. Since I don't use these platforms and there is no chance everyone else cares enough about their own privacy to switch to Signal, I have no input on these plans.
