  • Prey gives you the choices up front, tells you they don’t matter, then gives you a really good game to play.

    plot twist

    The way you play is entirely up to you, but that’s the point. Are you who you say you are? It’s easy to say whether you’ll flip a switch or push a person when you’re answering questions at a desk, but it’s suddenly much harder when you’re actually faced with the problem. What will you choose?



  • You can always try Linux risk free in a virtual machine like VirtualBox.

    If you like what you see, and you have any valuable data backed-up, you can try dual booting. That way you get to use Linux as your primary operating system, but can switch back and forth as much as needed.

    I found I was dual booting Windows and Linux for over 3 years before I was comfortable enough to stop using Windows entirely. Switching to Linux doesn’t have to be an all-or-nothing approach. You can take it as slow as you want.


  • The surgeons handle this regularly, it’s routine for them. You get to relax and let them manage everything.

    I went through lung surgery a few years ago and coped by deciding that I could trust the surgeons (and other medical professionals) completely. They know what they are doing, and they have procedures in place to make sure everything goes well.

    Learning to consciously relax and trust everyone around you is a something that takes constant effort, but in my opinion, it’s worth it.

    My surgery went well, no complications, and my recovery was exactly on schedule.


  • If you are worried, a qualified medical practitioner is always more reliable than a web forum.

    Insufficient or poor quality sleep can cause problems with attention and memory, and can exacerbate existing conditions.

    Poor sleep could be caused by a medical condition (sleep apnoea), or psychological (stress). Often stress can be hard to identify, particularly if it’s long term stress.

    Again, this might not be your problem, and finding the right doctor who actually listens to you is important. Don’t be afraid to try more than 1 doctor if the first makes you uncomfortable.

    South Australia has a huge amount of solar and wind, but relativity little storage, and basically no renewable base load (hydro, geothermal, nuclear). While the average renewable energy usage is fairly high, the instantaneous renewable usage can drop to almost 0 some days.

    Solutions are being implemented, and the renewable mix is gradually improving.
