Agreed that Falinks max battle is not fun (at least for a casual player). We took it down with 2 people, but had to have the right moves (Charizard with a Flying-type move), otherwise Falinks kicked our ass. I ended up just doing it once for the 'dex and never touched it again.

The jump in difficulty from 1-star to 3-star was pretty steep – I really want the upcoming Gigantamax Gengar but it’s 6-star and IDK how I’d be able to handle it when I have exactly one (1) other friend who play :(

Oh, this chonky boy is gorgeous ! I especially love the QAZ placement.

It’s a weird translation, the original text is something like, “It is with great regret that I have to inform you of our parent-child relationship in this way.”

I opened Google for the first time in three months just to try this lmao

My sibling’s delightful ex-roommate–a conservative, 20something, middle-class, cishet white man–said that he feels very oppressed in their college town! He’s always scared of saying what he thinks bc then everyone will think of him badly! Literally the most oppressed! (His actual words)

Seconding Stremio! Just had to install the Torrentio add-on and even my tech-challenged mom can use it on her Android TV with no problems. I also got her a RealDebrid account (9 EUR/6 months iirc, completely optional) so she doesn’t have to deal with torrent seeds etc.

As someone who’s had a single-user Mastodon instance for two years now: I love it. It’s definitely not for everyone, for reasons mainly stated in the article. However, if you like a more personal, highly-curated federated timeline, a single-user instance is great.

I 90% use Mastodon to keep up with my friends’ posts and see art and animal pictures (and I hate interacting with strangers LOL), so I curate my instance to only subscribe to them. For the remaining 10%, I have a secondary account on a larger instance for when I want to read the news etc. It’s worked well for me, but again, it’s surely not for everyone!

Japanese Misskey/Mastodon servers have also been spammed by the exact same thing since about 15 hours ago, and it’s still going. I guess they’re targeting Lemmy as well now, damn…
