Didn't I read this headline a few years ago?

Yes but he serves a different community

It began with the forging of the Great Rings.

Three were given to the Elves; immortal, wisest and fairest of all beings.

Seven to the Dwarf Lords, great miners and craftsmen of the mountain halls.

And nine...Nine rings were gifted to the Race of Men, who above all else desire power.

For within these rings was bound the strength and will to govern each race.

But do you recall... The most famous one ring of all

My suggestion is move it up. I don't know where on your list it is but higher is probably better.

It's a fantastic game. There's still bugs, sometimes even major ones. Still easily worth your time though.

No, but I'm gonna run his code anyway

It's not necessarily about the average person. Depression is a bitch and different people have varying reasons for hanging on while under its weight. Just because there aren't readily available studies about what reasons people didn't commit suicide because of doesn't mean these aren't reasons. I can assure you they are. Someone's favorite show has been their only light on more than one occasion I've known personally.

Or even just a board game night.

Maybe it just means boring guys. Drinking is a secondary activity, not a primary one.

There's a lot of deeper calculation to consider there. Is it a full production show, or someone's YouTube project? Is the podcast a single person, or many? If it's many are they in the same location? How much electricity is used to deliver your chosen medium to you?

Ultimately though none of that matters. If a podcast is what entertains you and makes your human condition livable that doesn't mean it does the same for Jack.

If electricity is such an issue than you using whatever electronic device to relay data to a server where my electronic device retrieved it from another server with who knows how many hops in between each for both of us is not a good use of your time.

If instead, as I suspect, you see value in harm reduction you need to realize that not everyone can reduce harm in the same way.

Right now, somewhere, someone is getting by because they can't wait for the next part of their favorite TV show or movie. Chances are you may even know one such person and not realize it. If that's gone their tenuous grasp on life may slip away. Even if you are ok with that, and I hope you're not, what positive impacts might that person have had that they will be unable to because they just can't take it anymore.

Life is hard. Stop trying to make people feel guilty for not living it the same way as you.

Probably. We need something to get through the day to day of being a person even before we get into all the horrible things all around the world. If we avoided everything we do that has unacceptable ramifications we'd pretty much have to crawl into a cave and die.

Use the modern tools you have access to to improve lives, not try and make others feel guilty for not having done enough.

Yes, that's nuts. I used to be very happy to have less than one and a half megs on something wider than a deck of cards. Now you're talking about terabytes on something the size of a pinky fingernail. I could store a half dozen in a pocket in my wallet without noticing them. That's a lot of storage.

For the record, only 6-10 games is also about 5-10 games more than I could store on one of those floppies, and if it was one it was an old game. It'd be akin to putting Halo: CE (not remastered or anything, original) on a micro SD.

So, yeah, storage is plentiful and readily available.

Nah, portable devices use portable storage. The space available in microSD is nuts

And readily available resources. No need to put effort into space saving tricks when space is so easy to come by
