My library is mostly Sierra and LucasArts adventures. Also a ton of D&D titles I haven't touched.

Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds is an all-time favorite.

For the Sierra titles, I'd highly recommend the first Gabriel Knight.

Seems fitting to choose this as I'm off to see Weezer tonight. A great album closer and one of their best songs.

Well, thanks to everyone for putting up with my daily posts and giving me some new stuff to listen to! Sharing music is the best.

Update! Ultimately, we all just want to share music we love and talk about it. Please don’t feel restricted by physical media. Share what you want!

Over in the vinyl sub at the Bad Place, u/Folk_nurse had been doing a Vinyl Tunes for June thing. When the blackout started, I kept adding to my own list each day, and I’d love to carry on with you all. Below is the calendar, I’ll start a thread each day.

The point is just to get us all looking at our physical collections and sharing music.

And seriously… ALL credit and thanks go to folk_nurse. I’m just not headed back there.

Thom Yorke's voice is just crazy.

A long work day and I failed to post in my own thread! Appreciate everyone keeping it alive! My song for today is from one of the GOATs - Marvin Gaye. Depressingly, it's just as relevant today.

Beehaw's Demographics survey of June 2023! in c/support@beehaw.org

I tried to start a silly forum-based role playing game once. I wanted the entire board to just be classified ads for and by superheroes and villains. From the mundane to the spectacular. It's an idea that still makes me laugh at the possibilities.

What's currently the best Lemmy app for Android? in c/technology@beehaw.org
What's currently the best Lemmy app for Android? in c/technology@beehaw.org
[–] rancidity9480@beehaw.org 30 points 1 year ago (16 children)

I'll put my thoughts on this post as it showed up as I scrolled to get to the one from a day or two ago...I have 5 different Lemmy apps installed right now. Figure that there is going to be a lot of experimentation and work being done right now, so it's nice to see what everyone is doing.

  • Jerboa - Personally, I really like Jerboa. Being the most mature of the bunch shows. It's well laid out, has just enough UI options, and works. Except that now Beehaw isn't on v0.18.

  • Connect - Not open source at this time, I get why that matters to people, but not a deal breaker for me. Typing this comment in Connect. Just updated this morning with additional and redesigned settings. There is about a thumbs width of space between this comment box and my keyboard. That's kind of yucky.

  • Liftoff - I'm hopeful for this one. It LOOKS the best to me, but there's some weird UX issues. Biggest being that the only place to see your replies/notifications is the top of the Home feed with no quick way to get there if you've been scrolling.

  • Thunder - I can see the potential, but it's not for me right now. No buttons on comments, you have to use swipe gestures. But posts have buttons. Changing UI options doesn't actually change anything 95% of the time.

  • Summit - You want a zero frills, dark mode way of browsing and interacting? This is that. I'd love a FEW options (like light mode), but it's fast and easy. Uhh...just realized I can't find a way to make a new post...

  • Wefwef.app - Last one. Really slick looking and responsive, but too iOS-y for me. It also claims to have light mode, but I can't figure out how to switch it. Really polished though.

Between you and me, I haven't been checking. 🫢

It started on the vinyl sub and so that's what I'm sticking with, but at the end of the day, it's just about sharing music we enjoy. I'll update my description for these last few!

  • Song - Wildflowers
  • Album - Wildflowers
  • Artist - Tom Petty

I like to start my mornings off quietly. There will be enough noise and chaos later. For now, let me sip my coffee and relax.

I wonder what the most well known song with a number in it is...this seems like it would be up there, but probably loses to 1999.

Could just do half of Prince's discography. 7 would have been a good one too.

Classic. Probably would have been my pick if I had it.

Last week. My day is wrong on the image. Confused the heck out of myself. This is not my favorite prompt, personally. But still a nice way to think about your collection.

Am I bugging anyone with these? Not trying to spam the group, just start some conversation!

Maybe an inaccurate interpretation of what's on the calendar, but I'm pretty sure this is what it's getting at.
