we can only afford to go out for dinner once or twice a month

Only twice a month! When I was growing up, my family went out for dinner maybe twice in 20 years haha. Though that’s a bit of a culture difference, I’ve noticed that in America its very normal to out to dinner. Over here it’s more of a special occasion thing, someone turned 50 years old or retired etc.

I specifically remember those two times. I was maybe 6 years of age and I was so confused and unsure about everything. I was just thinking, why are we going out, I don’t know the food there, I don’t know what everything tastes like, I don’t know if I’ll like things. I don’t remember what I ordered but I do remember feeling awkward for telling the waiter what I wanted and then she asked me questions of how I would like the food to be! I didn’t know lol. It was a horrible experience.

The next time we went out to eat, I was maybe 14 or 15. That was more relaxed from my part, I just ordered a stake, I had watched enough Gordon Ramsay to know not to order it well done. So everything went fine on that occasion.

But to be honest, I don’t wish we went out more. I feel like going out is just a unnecessary hassle. I mean… theres other people there, yuck.

What I do remember fondly is the times we went to my grandma’s place for Sunday dinner. Nothing fancy, just some potatoes, some sort of gravy, whatever. The food was not important. The important bit was to see my cousin, going out to the woods/playground while the adults had prepared the dinner. I remember how our family was in charge of bringing the potatoes, or maybe it was our turn to bring the salad stuff and whatnot.

Anyway, this turned into a ramble. I’ll stop here before it gets even more incoherent.

That’s what I would like to know!

Good thing they haven’t made a whole reality tv franchise about that idea!

I have those thoughts all the time. Don’t see what the point of writing or saying them would be though. Especially if it’s just gonna disappear.

Nah. Seems like a hassle to go download them every day. Much rather just keep them ready to go.

If your wondering why, pirating games isn’t very seamless on Linux yet,

But playing on a SNES emulator is! :D

I thought about it for years. Then I did the switch and wished I’d done it years earlier.

Then I thought about switching from Ubuntu to something else for years. Then I switched to Debian and wished I’d had done that from the beginning.

I suck with computers, I have no idea what I’m doing 90% of the time, plus I’m dumb as hell in general but I still managed to do the swap with zero issues. Its easier and more straightforward than what people say. Just do it.
