How long did it take you to get to Aquilo?
So I'm over 100 hours in and I've just reached the point where I've made it above Aquilo's orbit.
However, I wonder if I spent too much time setting up a janky interplanetary logistics system rather than just using Nauvis resources for science. Also, Gleba spiders keep eating my base.
Figured I'd ask then... How long did it take before you touched down on Aquilo in your playthrough?

Got sent this, and the animation is actually quite well done for how simple it is.
Rivals of Aether 2 (A furry Smash Bros) has a free demo this weekend
It's fun, and well worth looking at if you like smash.

Been playing this game a bit. Can't comment on how good it is compared to actual battlefield, but I've been having fun.
Currently in (free) beta, not sure how long they are doing their playtest for though.

Stumbled upon this game and had fun with the demo. Might be up some people's alley.

Hey all, I'm British so I don't really know the ins and outs of the US healthcare system. Apologies for asking what is probably a rather simple question.
So like most of you, I see many posts and gofundmes about people having astronomically high medical bills. Most recently, someone having a $27k bill even after his death.
However, I have an American friend who is quick to point out that apparently nobody actually pays those bills. They're just some elaborate dance between insurance companies and hospitals. If you don't have insurance, the cost is lower or removed entirely. Supposedly.
So I'm just asking... How accurate is that? Consider someone without insurance, a minor physical ailment, a neurodivergent mind and no interest in fighting off harassing people for the rest of their life.
How much would such a person expect to pay, out of their own pocket, for things like check ups, x rays, meds, counselling and so on?

Would you move to another country?
So another thread ( https://lemmy.world/post/17746018 ) got me wondering... How many people would want to move to another country?
Just to provide a concrete scenario, let's assume that in your current country you (magically) have a decent-ish job. They open up offices in another country of your choosing, and you have the option of moving there and work for an equivalent living wage.
They're able to get visas set up (however improbable that may be) for you and any family, but you have to go through the process of finding housing, physically moving your belongings and anything else you need to set up.
What countries would you take the offer to move to, if any?
Protogen meet photoshoot
Not my photo or mastodon, but figured it would be worth sharing.
I love the cardboard visor.

So this is something I've been thinking about a bit recently, and I'd be interested in hearing people's thoughts on the matter.
Lets suppose you meet someone, and chat socially with them. Maybe a work colleague, maybe a friend met through a friend. You aren't that close with them, but you get the vibe that they aren't a bigot or judgemental at the very least. If the conversation turned to furry stuff, would you tell them that you like furry art?
Do you keep a different set of non-furry socials for your irl friends and family? What about having a furry profile pic on your work slack? Or your Github? Do you try hard to make sure that nobody will be able to find your secret furry double life if they know you IRL?
I guess, in essence, I'm wondering if you draw a hard line between your "sfw furry life" and your "IRL life".
I just stumbled upon Accell's art
Stumbled upon this artist on bluesky ( https://bsky.app/profile/accelldraws.bsky.social ), and their art is adorable.
Not sure how well known they are, but look at how soft everything is!
