I find TypingMind outstanding.

You missed the point here entirely.

The work those few do help people like you in ways you might not completely fathom. Reddit doesn't auto-regulate itself as much as we think. It's hard work but a small percentage of people who are paid nothing, and use 3rd-party tools to work best.

Further to that, do you have a write-up on your transition from (I assume) full-time work to this system? Did you survive on savings? What's your lifestyle like now compared to then?

How do you deal with things like negative thoughts? I find I am an 'ideas' guy, but will instantly shoot myself in the foot by researching similar services that do better than a one-man-team could do. I also have severe trouble dedicating myself to a complete-project - even if I push past the first issue mentioned above - and will really battle my inner demons who think supplying an MVP is 'good enough'.

I suppose my question is how you fight your mental battles.

Is this more a problem with the publisher and not Steam? I don't imagine Steam dictates what is and isn't a 'linked' game. I would think the publisher has the final say on what gets a new store-page. I'm curious what page the author reached to purchase the game itself.

I think you might want to do a bit more research on Steam's return policy. It's incredibly liberal.

I've played games for 10 hours and returned them with no problem. I don't think you're _wrong_ but I don't think you're right either. I worded my responses well, I told them what was good and bad, and my very reason why.

I've enjoyed their support system for returns and have very little to complain about with it.

1. Iterate through all blocks of comments. 2. Determine if there have been updates within the block of comments first (one line of three updating, for example). 2. For each block of comments, find the proceeding block of code. 3. Compare the last update of comments to the last updates of the code. 4. Warn the user when it's over a threshold.

Something like that?

Seconding that request for more information - or direction - on the self-sustained indie-hacker advice.

I'm not trying to be facetious or rude, but that seems like a massive decision against something that was largely fixed? I can understand if you had software-problems with iOS but I didn't see that in your comment.

Managing those kinds of blocker apps, and security and such are all great when you're 'in the zone' and have it fresh at the forefront of your thoughts. For me, it only takes a week or so of not thinking about it before my standards slip and I have Just Another Application™ running.

If you don't mind me asking, how much does it cost per recipe(s) on CPU vs GPU?

I also wouldn't mind waiting 3 minutes if there was a direction telling me so, with a timer.

I'd love to explore this, but I feel I lack the knowledge of finding new, improved or up-to-date PiHole lists.. do you have any advice?

I understand - but surely this can't be a downside to the product? How often does the average Joe need to learn their naming conventions?

I feel like I learn them during the purchasing/comparison period then never need to look again unless I'm repeating that cycle.

I jump on any Alzheimer's Disease news. I don't understand it, naively, but I try to follow it as closely as I can.

It's a fear I carry for no particular reason, but one I hope to see eradicated (or better managed) in my future where it could be a possibility.

This particular article looks exciting, and something I can almost make sense of.

That was a very well-written comment, thank you. Hit the dopamine and gave me a smile for your explanation.

Has that been proven to be detrimental to the battery? I don't really follow that tech-side, so it would be good to know -how- detrimental it is.
