This is a discussion you should definitely have with your partner. My wife and I split things proportionally so I earn more and I pay more. We try and split so we each have some fun money every month.

John works where Rey doesn’t because he’s had the career and experience to back up what he does. Other characters are terrified of him, he’s been in the setting long enough to become a legend.

Rey a scavenger in the arse end of nowhere goes from knowing literally nothing about the outside world and starting at about the same power as Luke’s ability in new hope to by the end of that first movie Luke’s ability in return of the jedi with no training involved.

John is an example of a legend in action, an unstoppable force, it’s satisfying to watch because the film does such a good job of building him up. That one with the mob boss talking about the pencil comes to mind. Rey gets none of that, she’s just great at everything without trying. She can fly a ship like the falcon on her first go ever flying a space ship well enough to out fly trained fighter pilots. Luke at least has flown similar ships in similar situations before the death star run.

One that is better is when she beats Kylo with the first time using a saber because it shows she is letting the force guide her so it makes much more sense why she can do it.

Yeah exactly. I had the show in a window floating over part of the ship inside VR. Think about where the centre console would be in a car. It was a really cool experience, flying my space ship whilst watching a program.

Elite Dangerous is perfect to play with a show on. I used to do window in window in VR whilst flying between sites.

Hampy was a vicious little bugger so we only noticed he had died about a week after when mum went to clean out his cage. Little Russian White Winter super fast, you’d open the cage and he’d be attached to your finger before you could swear at him.

This was going to be my suggestion. Big stone writing. Do something like the Rosetta stone with multiple languages saying the same thing, for future translation, and then keep it somewhere safe like a large cave.

I’ve been going with “surviving” for the last year or so. It’s about as good as I can confess to myself most days. I agree with you in that “good thanks”, you? Feels you close to lying for my morals on my bad days.

I don’t have any issues with them. What I do take issue with is companies enforcing them with the assumption being you will use your own mobile device to authenticate for them. I feel like it’s not worth the stink to complain but both places I work for require 2fa now and I need the authenticator app or get a message to my phone.

Mortality is a hard thing to get your head around. Try to not let it take over and keep doing the things you enjoy. Talk to some friends about it all. That should help get some perspectives. Don’t be afraid of going to sleep. Sleep is cozy and good for you.

If there is"no point" then the point is to do the most good and have the most fun whilst you can.

I work in healthcare and often talk to people and families about the dying process. We tell people that dying is a lot like falling asleep and that hearing is the last sense to go. So even if they aren’t awake and interacting anymore they are still aware of the people around them.

To me, dying is part of life, it’s the big unknown. Everyone dies, you can’t change that. What we can do is accept it and make the best life we can with the time we have. The point is enjoying the now. For me I focus on spending time with my wife and doing what good in the world I can do. I work with dying people a lot and if I can make even a few minutes of their time better I’ve made a difference that was worthwhile.
