The only game that I play is World of Warcraft. I forget for how long it has been -- maybe 16-17 years. Since The Burning Crusade launched.

I love it. I love the world, the exploration, the music, and the lore.

Very much looking forward to the launch of WoW: Dragonflight!

Any other WoW players around?

I already created my Dracthyr Devastation Evoker!

Behold! 🤓 😎 #Warcraft #nerd #Dragonflight #CoSoGames #games

@pennyphilosophy We Finns are kind of sauna crazy. 🙂 🇫🇮

#sauna #finland

Came to the #Finnish #Archipelago to our "summer house" for a long weekend.

The sauna is warmed up. It's time to relax, and enjoy the sound of silence.

If you possibly can, consider donating to CoSo and/or subscribing to PRO.

I've done both. I'd like to see CoSo live long, and prosper.

As it were. #CoSoNerd

It's really too bad that many people are flocking over to the fediverse instead of here.

I've been trying to signal my followers over at the birdy place that CoSo is a much better alternative.

@yankees1958 There’s no rush!

If you’re into sci-fi, you would do well to follow Quinn’s Ideas on YouTube.

Supremely well crafted content!

@homebird Scotland! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I love Scotland! The missus and I have very good friends there. The whole country is like a picture postcard!

Aye, you’re right, though. Not normal for this time of the year.

The weather forecast for Saturday predicts 13C.

Now, for November in Finland, that high a temperature is — not to put too fine a point on it — fuckin’ nuts.

@amarand I’ve been doing that fairly actively. 🙂

@timholt2007 These things are sometimes tricky to pin down, as to what causes the hiccup of the day, alas.

Hope you get it sorted out! 🙂

The more time I spend here, the more this feels like my new haunt.

The "other place" has accounts that I'd be happy to see here -- well-known scientists, philosophers, academic institutions, interesting organisations, and so forth.

That may change in time, or it may not. Still, CoSo has been very friendly and positive, and I'm glad that is the case, even if that means missing out on some sources I'd be interested in following.

@dorkistry counter.social is not federated, i.e. part of the Mastodon "fediverse".

@timholt2007 Has it? Honestly, I haven't noticed. macOS Monterey 12.6, Safari 16.0.

Works fine for me, overall.

What I have noticed, though, is that for some reason Google Maps zooming has turned choppy from what was smooth as butter before. Quick googling reveals that I'm not alone with that problem. If one changes the User Agent in Develop menu to Google Chrome, the problem disappears. Waiting for a fix on that one.

@RetroYeti ’Savage’ is a great album! 😎

@Ragorik It’s much better than the uneven The Book of Boba Fett, or the atrocious Obi-Wan Kenobi. But damn, it’s bleak. #andor #starwars

While on the subject, I highly recommend Stephen Mumford’s book “Absence and Nothing — The Philosophy of What There is Not”.

As an amateur philosopher, I’ve long been interested in the concept of nothing.

Some time ago I wrote down some thoughts on the subject.
