Palestinian isn't a race, the country was a creation of the UN after WW1; technically, they're mostly Arabs, who, for the record, conquered like 11 countries, assimilating most of the natives

only a guy like Trump would worry about publicity at a time like that

slashdot and 9gag are definitely at different ends of the spectrum afaik
isn't 9gag just a poor man's 8chan

kbin is great, I'm subbed to like 80+ mags rn

the two I remember by WS are Interstellar Pig and The Boy who Reversed Himself

I used to love these books when I was a kid.. William Sleator too

anyone who says that forgets how bad tv sucked back then
I mean you'd have to at least bring back video stores or something

maybe they could add a feature where users can set their own meta communities, like a custom collection from all the various instances

Well it's been a year or two since I've played through it, but you're right the dark world is way harder. Running helps sometimes.. hold down one of the buttons. Hold down the sword button to do this charged swing. Also, exploring isn't just for heart pieces.. eg, you get a magic medallion or something after tossing one of those skull-shaped rocks into a circle of stones in the water somewhere. There's a little house you can buy potions from, but you need a jar. You can catch fairies with a butterfly net and you store them in a jar too iirc.
If there are too many enemies in the room, try and pick them off one at a time. Have patience though, this is just Link and he's no Master Chief. If you think the dungeons are tough, wait till you get to the boss fights. There's usually some trick to it you have to figure out

The Subnautica and Doom (2016) games were pretty fun, although truth be told the Subnautica games made me way more uncomfortable. There's just something about being trapped hundreds of meters underwater, forced to worry about oxygen, drinking water, food, power supply, trying not to get eaten by giant creatures. I actually managed to kill a few leviathans toward the end, but it wasn't easy:

I use cloudflare and quad9 all the time. Many versions of Android even have a "private DNS" setting under network settings to set encrypted DNS with no need for an app.

definitely a turnoff for me.. years ago when I first discovered Diablo 2 on an old computer at a place I was house-sitting at, I had no internet whatsoever.. nothing
that game kept me sane in so many ways
eventually several months later I managed to leech some web access from an old construction yard or something behind the place, but that's a story for another time..
