He fought it since the age of twenty one. Dude did alright. I highly doubt I'll reach 76, and I don't have anything like what he had.

I was literally about to post that video on here before I saw you already did.  :))

That video is particularly fitting, as Hawking has died on Einstein's birthday (he also happened to be born on Galileo's 400th deathday).

While on the subject of Hawking-related media:

NieR : Automata is the best game to have come out in the last 2 years (excluding ToCS PC ports) and I'll fight anyone who says otherwise.

Finding balance in life is fucking hard...I've been trying to strike more of a balance since the new year started, but I feel like I'm behind on just about everything. Everything going on isn't helping either...I thrive in routine and normalcy, and it's hard to keep things on track when that routine is continuously disrupted.  v_v

I feel like I'm starting to make some headway though. At least I feel like I've been able to put in a decent amount of time here lately.

So a couple weeks ago I bought Fallout 4. I didn't even think about it. I was talked into it and I just did it. For the longest time I knew that I couldn't play all the cool games that have come out over the last 13 years because they would literally (try to) kill me. So I didn't play any of them. All the while my brother had grown out of epilepsy. I've envied that about him for so long because he could be normal again. Only I was the outcast. And yet, I watched my brother play Fallout 4 and after a few hours I was fine. It was confusing at first. I knew that it was possible for one's triggers to change after enough time but I thought they just kept piling up for me one after the other. Now I've discovered that flashing lights are no longer one of mine. I have so much to catch up on! So much I've missed! It's liberating to be able to "blend in" with the people I have the most in common with...gamers!

That's really awesome that you're able to play video games.  Although I will admit that some of them do get out of hand in the flashing-light department...so I'd still be a bit cautious if I were you.

But yes, you have so many games to catch up on!

I bought it last year the moment it released on PC, and I don't regret that choice in the slightest, but I STILL haven't finished it. There's just never enough time that I can set aside for it. Like, I haven't even reached the first ending.

Yeah some flashing lights can cause seizures in literally anyone so I do still have to be careful. Outside of Fallout 4 though I'm working my way up so I still have to finish getting through Gamecube, PS2, Xbox (again), and so on. Plus the tons of PC games. It's gonna take a while, heh.

Quick question, no particular reason I'm asking, but in "daerht sdrawkcab ehT" there's sites for typing backwards and upside-down. Are there any sites for sideways text?

I'm going to keep looking, but if anyone already has a link to one it would be appreciated.

Well, opposite direction, but essentially yes.

There's only one I found, and it only allows one direction, unfortunately:  https://lingojam.com/Sidewaystext
