Nebula does this. I really like the platform except there aren't comments. Sometimes I like reading the comments on a video

It really affects new players like you're saying. As a long time player with stacks of XP books, I didn't notice it. I imagine for players who want to get to max ASAP, it's nice. For players who like the grind and want to compete a map before moving on, it might feel a bit strange to level so fast. I think with level scaling, it probably doesn't make too much of a negative for anyone.

That's awesome!! Thanks mids and Penguin :)

Disclaimer: living in USA. I used to doom scroll a lot a few years ago... What helped me was initially leaving the feeds (head in the sand as you say), but this was not a good permanent solution. Since then, I have done a few things that have helped (your mileage may vary depending on what you're trying to stay informed about). The first and easiest was to switch how I was getting my news. Now, I will get international news from different country's sources (ie:https://www.helsinkitimes.fi/world-int.html or https://www.channelnewsasia.com/world). I'll swap up which one I go to each day normally. It's interesting seeing world news from different perspectives. If I find a story that is particularly interesting, I'll look more into it. Secondly, I believe it is often more important to be aware of your local news than anything. To that end, I follow quite a few local sources of news. Most are hinted with my interests (urbanist improvements, community meetings, local discord servers), but some are more general. Also, I listen to a few podcasts not aimed at news, but as a queer person consuming queer media I occasionally hear things I didn't know. Promptly, I might look into it more. My motto is if something sounds really crazy, it's probably being misconstrued. You're never going to be informed on everything, but if you want to get less biased news, there are ways. Hope some of this helps in any way

Gorgeous!!

A few parks/open spaces, a venue (for comedy acts, concerts, sportsball games, etc), train station to go to other cities, gym, ... I'm sure there's a lot more, but that's what came to mind

I appreciate all the responses! I think we just need to be firm when asking to bag. Often, there isn't a bagger so my partner will start (he used to work at a Target so he's pretty quick and particular), and an employee will come over and take over even if he insists he would prefer to bag.

I've had FedEx deliver my package to a vacant neighborhood home. By the time I went to get the package, it was gone. FedEx did a "thorough" investigation and found that they delivered it correctly. I appealed and never got my money back.

Definitely feels like something I'll have to get my hands on before I judge it too much. The fact that they stated there isn't a FOMO mechanic to it is good. As someone who played the previous two WOW expansions, I hope it feels nothing like them.

Thirding US Mobile. I pay so little each month and the one issue I had, they fixed it, refunded me, and have me a 6 month discount. Top notch experience so far.

What region of Finland is this? I thought those really long sun days were only in Lapland. I'd love to visit Finland some day

Very interesting read lol. I think part of it is definitely to encourage repeat purchases. If you like a product and for the layman there is no way to maintain it, you'll probably buy it again. More money for them! In regards to the interface being terrible... The only reason I could think would be overly cautious on avoiding injury? If there are so many tactile requirements, your fingers can't be ground, which means no lawsuit. Who knows why companies decide certain things. (Like Chrome making you have to choose custom for page amount instead of auto populating the field and making me take an extra step)
