The EHIC doesn't cover things like a mountain rescue or being flown back to the your home country i.e. the most expensive and potentially life-ruining things, so travel insurance is still a good idea.
I sometimes boot up Curse of Monkey Island. It was my first proper adventure game. The voice acting, dialogue, music and art is still charming to this day.
It's important to remember it's early days. Things aren't as smooth as reddit now, especially with Federation, but they're going to improve.
Reddit was pretty unpolished when I joined 13? years ago. There is something awesome about being on a frontier where posts are getting 20 comments instead of 2,000. Everybody gets a chance to contribute and be heard.
I don't really care if the blackout works or not. Either way Reddit is going to die, the only difference is how quickly. I'm just happy it introduced me to Lemmy which is much closer to the kind of experience I wanted anyway.
I have recently played the Blackwell series after thoroughly enjoying Unavowed but The Shivah didn't seem interesting. Will give it a try thanks!
