I suggest browsing the apps available here:

I was referring to the image-only link and the embed that you suggested. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

Neither of those is a good approach, because part of every xkcd comic is the hover text.

The environment looks real enough. The "cats" look like weird demon creatures created by some entity that only knows dogs.

Why is he so interested in Greenland? Is it just the natural resources?

I often sit at a desk all day and all evening. I find that these things help:

  • Good chair. Height adjusted for my keyboard/mouse height. Upright back. Lumbar support. Comfortable-but-supportive seat.
  • Good posture (when I remember to pay attention to it).
  • Split, tented keyboard. Mechanical switches that don't require too much pressure.
  • Good display. IPS panel. Light anti-glare surface. Backlight that actually dims the light source, either without pulse-width modulation, or with PWM at such high frequency that it cannot induce flicker fatigue. Brightness turned down much lower than the default. Calibrated at that brightness setting, optionally to a slightly warm color temperature.
  • Muted room lighting. Nothing behind me bright enough to reflect much on the screen.
  • Comfortable clothes.
  • Cup of water. Regular trips to the kitchen to keep it filled.
  • Frequent short breaks. Start the laundry. Get a snack. Look at objects outside. Wash a dish. Bring in the mail. Make the bed.
  • Exercise. At least 10 minutes daily; preferably 30 minutes or more. Stretches. Squats. Rhythm games that require full-body movement.

Congratulations!

For those who didn't notice that OP posted 2 links:
(They look like a single link because there's nothing separating them.)

Its an actual term

It's a phrase coined very recently based on a misconception, and happened to be picked up by some online publishers. That's all.

Saying "its an actual term" [sic] just attempts to give it an air of legitimacy, without actually meaning anything.

The phrase itself is not only ignorant, but also insulting. The gamers it refers to are not Baby Boomers, but Generation X, which had nothing to do with the damage to society that Boomers are famous for and most of us in younger generations are suffering from now. (Housing crisis and out-of-touch legislators, for example.)

A game category made up by people who think "boomer" means "anyone more than a few years older than me".

It was a few years ago when I read Signal's statement about this, so I'm afraid I don't have a link for you.

I believe you when you say Molly functions, but it's important to note that without Signal's blessing, anyone using Molly can be locked out of the network (and their chats and contacts) at any moment. It's not the same as official interoperability.

I wonder if the Digital Markets Act will eventually force it.

“There’s a lot of r-----s in the chat,”

What is a "r-----"?

Racoon?

Rocker?

Rodent?

Unless Signal's policies recently changed, Molly is not interoperable, since Signal does not allow third-party clients to use their servers/network. That would make point 2 correct.

If that policy has changed, then someone please link the announcement so I can update my notes.
