Are you mistaking "average" for the literal average number of people? I am referring to average as in ability. Most authors are pretty average people, sure, the above average ones write war and peace etc. But most books these days are not from these extraordinary people.

Ordinary people do these things all the time. There are new companies made every day, new books top the charts every week/month/year, same for music. People have decent conversations every day. Ordinary people sometimes do have to talk someone out of suicide.

Yes, average humans are not beating the stock market. But the average human is a bit better than you give credit to.

The fairphone 6 is much better! I've found it to be pretty snappy and the screen quality is nice. Can't speak to the camera quality, but the startup time is not slow.
Can anyone tell me if this model is used by Mac OS when I press the dictate key on my keyboard? Or is that an older model/setup?

I think they have a point, you might (and should) evaluate it for each new package you install. But when you do a full system upgrade, are you telling me you'll review every AUR package again?
Hive is a really nice game.

This year we picked up Homeworlds, there are more rules, but scratches a deeper itch. Plus you feel like a space general while playing lol.
