No, I hate DST. Getting up an hour earlier sucks. I also prefer the darker season in general because I feel like I sleep better.

The Silmarillion is one of my favourite books, but I totally get this. Unless you’re really into Tolkien’s world as well as this style of book it’s not a fun read.

Might make it more bearable if you’re not already using it. But it’s still annoying even then.

Real programmers use a magnetized needle and a steady hand.

This standard is not meant to define the proper method for brewing tea intended for general consumption, but rather to document a tea brewing procedure where meaningful sensory comparisons can be made.

As long as you’re not claiming to be a purist I’ll allow it.

True, I forgot about that!

“Preparation purist” is wrong. You don’t boil the tea, you steep it in hot water. For some teas, like black tea, you usually boil the water before pouring it over the tea, but other types of tea use water that isn’t as hot (e.g. around 70-80°C for green tea).

Also, if you actually want to be an ingredient purist, tea must be made from the leaves of Camellia sinensis (or a closely related species).

Nobody said anything about third-party articles. The page linked above is supposed to be a reference, not a tutorial. But the official Nix website also has actual tutorials.

Note that MAUI doesn’t officially support Linux.

But there are third party alternatives like Uno Platform or Avalonia UI that do.

I rarely check people’s bookshelves but my experience has also been that people either don’t even know what it’s really about or they absolutely love it.

But I guess it’s possible that some people buy it after reading LotR expecting more of the same and then give up after reading the first few pages of the Ainulindalë.

Slay the Spire is a great game that works well on mobile and has no microtransactions. I’ve played it for 400 hours (on PC) and I’m still not tired of it.

Raddle is not federated as far as I know. It seems to be using Postmill which uses the permissive zlib License.

In addition to sustainability concerns others have mentioned, capitalism is also inherently unjust. You earn money by having money and many of those who work the hardest are also the poorest.

Mlem supports this on iOS. Voyager does as well, it’s a progressive web app, so it works almost everywhere.

First off, I’m not the arbiter of what does and doesn’t belong to a certain genre. That’s, to a certain extent, subjective and people don’t always agree. However, there usually is at least some consensus in the community, otherwise the genre names would be useless.

That said, I personally wouldn’t call this melodic death metal either. Most of the song is just clean singing and clean guitars, both of which are sometimes used in melodeath, but they’re not a defining aspect of it. And even the parts with harsh vocals and distorted guitars are missing the riffs that are typical for the genre. It’s closer to a progressive death metal or groove metal sound similar to Gojira or Opeth.

Overall Jinjer are also definitely not a melodeath band, they’re metalcore, which is often seen as a subgenre of hardcore, not metal, although there are bands that are more on the metal side.

As I said, I’m not the genre police, this is just my opinion. But I think (sub)genre definitions are useful when talking about music and if we start using them too loosely, they lose their meaning and as a result, their utility.

This is a cool song but it has nothing to do with melodic death metal. That would be bands like (old) In Flames, At the Gates, Amon Amarth or Dark Tranquillity.
