Is it because, like me, you'd often type out full replies on Reddit, then decide at the last moment to not post it out of fear of becoming troll food?

it deletes it from my phone to clear space, keeping only the cloud backup

One copy of of anything isn't a backup, it's a move. Yes, in this case, Google is doing its own backups but you're giving them all the trust and control.

I don't think this game has much replayability. Especially as the server is becoming less and less stable.

An evil like this can only be destroyed in the heart of a volcano.

This is warning showing why spreading out is important. No one instance being offline should be able to affect so many Motorheads at once.

In the 90's before I was doing it professionally, I used to go on massive 10 - 15 hour binge programming sessions only stopping when I realized I hadn't eaten in that entire time. It was some of the best fun I've ever had. But it happened rarely and organically, not 5 days a week on a predetermined schedule.

Do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life.

  1. Every day is a day I'd rather have off.
  2. It ruined the thing I loved (programming) for me

There are people still alive who remember a world before "splinter-free" toilet paper.

The manufacturing of this product had a long period of refinement, considering that as late as the 1930s, a selling point of the Northern Tissue company was that their toilet paper was "splinter free".

My Prusa MK4 kit just arrived and I'm looking forward to seeing how assembly differs from the MK3s. I'm not going to have a chance to work on it until Friday though.

This is the biggest reason for me. Though I rarely look further than F-Droid for anything.

My HS put networked computers in every classroom a couple years before I graduated (so '95 or '96). They put predictable passwords on all the teacher accounts, and all teacher accounts had write access to network shares. Those of us who figured that out stashed copies of the Doom WAD file (the one file too big to fit on a single 3.5" floppy) all over the network under different names. So even after they figured out we were in and started forcing teachers to change their password, there were still a dozen or more copies spread over the network.

Student access was enough to copy the WAD file locally over the 100mbit ethernet if you knew where to look. And we all carried the rest of the game around on floppy. So any time we got access to the computers we were playing doom. We also passed around floppies with different mod files. The chicken launcher was everyone's favorite.

"Merger" that was really a purchase. New CEO started immediately talking about making our $30mil company a $100mil company within 3 years and we all then knew they were going to work is to death and then sell us as soon as the multiples became unbound from revenue.

2 years later they're in their 3rd CEO and they're was just another max exodus. Glad I left early.
