Doing some "cold-call" business/professional emailing recently, And I feel the specter of

I can't see my emails seeming genuine or real or human.

Formal digital text seems even less human or trust worthy than it did in previously.

The urge to have a phone call is stronger than ever for me (as a millennial that never picks up).

For me, this is new, and I only noticed now and I'm a little disturbed at how AI silently altered my world view despite not really using it

gila,

It was back around 2018 that I was first learning the ropes in b2b sales, but I do think I felt similarly about people being able to detect parts of what I’d written that were copypasted, not lead-specific. So I just stopped copypasting stuff, wrote short nice genuine emails, opened up to the people that wrote back. Called the ones that didn’t. Always hated phone calls beforehand, but some good experiences on a few early calls definitely eased my nervousness.

I remember the first time I had to call the director of a big competitor, he was like “What was that? I can’t hear you, I’ll have to put the top down. I’m joyriding in my [luxury sports car] right now”. I found that extremely funny and it really broke the ice. And once I was able to be casual with him, I found it easy with pretty much everyone.

It takes two!

Licorice and chocolate, who knew that would work together? Well if it's Moersleutel and Kees, you know it will. Very interesting combination, but very well done. Choco more in nose, licorice in mouth. Some mint in the aftertaste. Thick, filming, heavy.

How are you preparing for Dawntrail?

We only have a week left until early access starts, what are you guys doing to prepare for it? I've grinded out the carbuncle earring from the mogtome event and plan to do the wondrous tails for that extra exp. Also, both my inventory and glamour dresser are completely full, so I'll need to make some room beforehand.. But most importantly, I still need a fitting glam :D

Drusenija,

Thank you ❤️ I’ve played around with Fantasias a little since I finished Endwalker but I always come back to my middie. And my Gyr Abania Plait hairstyle!

MrKarato,

Playing other games. Only kind of a joke. It’s important to pace myself so I don’t burnout on the game too quick.

Fosheze,

Ah yes, the gender fluid.

MachineFab812,

Half are indoor smokers. None have heard of feather-dusters … outside the context of the bedroom.

Self hosting kids-friendly multiplayer games on Raspberry Pi 4

I'm working on a little project and I would like to have some multiplayer game that I can play with the kids. Ideally they should be little kids friendly, so no doom or quake.

I tried Minecraft, bedrock but the latency over wifi (and it needs to be over wifi for my project) is really bad.

In an ideal situation, I'd like to have one or more games that

  • Can be played in multiplayer mode
  • Ideally you only need the browser
  • Is relatively lightweight, so can be run on a Raspberry Pi with Wifi

Any suggestions besides the one I mentioned? Maybe some emulator that can be used? Thanks!

Romm might fit, if you’ve got the patience to map controllers. Remember, it’s a BYO rom situation, but that’s nothing the guys over at @piracy can’t help you with.

Num10ck,

does an emulator count? like MAME or NES etc?

I suppose it was really only a matter of time.... There weren't really any major features coming out and there where a good number of bugs, but it's still sad to see it go.

Also, it seems like someone is working on a fork.
