A fictional character's death in the Witcher books.

I was reading a fantasy book about a monster hunter, I didn't expect that one, last paragraph of a chapter, out of the blue, would make me actually uncontrollably cry. The author has been criticized for his writing style but holy shit this was like waking up from a dream that suddenly turned into a nightmare.

And no, it's not a character you necessarily know if you've only played the games.

Witcher Books major spoilerEssi Daven's (Little Eye) death. Fuck you Geralt. She was the one for you.

This is pretty cool, thanks for sharing!

(And thanks sunshine for pinning, almost missed this).

I hope my words can lift someone's mood up! :)

I've never bumped into the term before lemmy, but that's probably because English is not my first language. In my native language it also sounds like that and I wouldn't use it.

It's gonna be ok, you got this. We are all still just the little humans we were when we were children, in an adult body, with just more experience and knowledge than back then.

It's ok to feel overwhelmed, stressed, like an impostor, etc. You and everyone else have gotten through struggles before. This too shall pass.

All you can do is your best, you can't do more and that's ok.

(simple stuff just replaced with electronics that you have to replace whole for half the price of the whole machine).

Not to mention the waste it creates.. In theory it can be recycled. In practice electronic waste is not recycled at the level you'd expect...

ORF (Austrian National Broadcasting Company) made a news article about the movement and petition last year in August:

Ned so schlecht!

Agreed!

And of course, as with everything, there is always stuff to improve. My comment was to just to add to yours - i still agree that on daily use the popup is annoying. Thankfully it's not privacy invasive!

I agree its annoying, but just to add: AFAIK by default it doesn't use the google "Control access point inclusion" (which uses internet to enhance the location accuracy) so even with location on, by default its quite private. Only uses your internal GPS receiver and doesn't share this info outside the app.

But yeah it is indeed a bit annoying that it nags about the location everytime you open the app.

Edit: added words.

I wouldn't say no one who isn't running linux isn't going to see this:

I know that I switched over to linux because of the sheer amount of advocacy and info posts for beginners on lemmy. I used to only use linux servers at work, but lemmy convinced / helped me to switch fully to linux! :)

Edit: just to clarify: I mean this post will get shared around on spaces with noobs like me, even if its on peertube and im not "on it"
