How does steam work again?
Like others have said, go to the Steam website, download Steam, install it on your computer, create a profile, add friends/join Steam FaWtL, and then message me so I can give you a starter pack of games. :D
I'm taking you for a Hatoful Boyfriend kind of guy. xD

That's...that's a lot of games.
How do you join groups on Steam? I only ever installed it to get Civ V to run when I bought it at the store years ago.

Let any of us who are members know what your Steam ID/username is and we can send you an invite.

I'm pretty sure when you log in, you just go to the group's Steam page and there should be an option to join. Or you might need to get an invite from another group member, depending on the group permissions.
Though, they did add in something to stop spammers/scammers, where if you haven't spent at least... I think €5 in the Steam store itself, you can't add friends or join groups.

I told my wife I need to workout more, and she recommended we do some workout videos on YouTube, but there's literally tens of thousands of options, so I don't suppose anyone has recommendations?
I prefer body weight stuff so I can learn the routine and do it anywhere, and I can't do high impact or interval cardio due to asthma, but I can do low impact cardio in target range. I used to do a lot of yoga until I got sick and then too lazy to get off my butt again, and bike riding until I got hit by a car and my bike was wrecked.
NH? You seem to be doing well, what's your routine? Anybody else?
I can't stand where I'm at. When I got married I gained 30lbs...became a vegetarian, lost 20, biked a lot, lost 20 more, got lazy, gained back 20, turned 30, gained another 15 over the years even though nothing changed habit wise. (Screw you slowing metabolism!)

For the record, there are about three creatures and a plant by that name - I think the ones we have in the U.S. is the opiliones - aka "the arachnid, but not spider" kind of things.
I'm on my phone right now, but I know in NC and GA they were clearly not spiders.
Just so we're all on the same biology page.

Gravitational waves have been detected.
It means we can say things like:
"Yo momma's so fat, we felt her sit down from a billion light-years away."
They also confirmed that gravity waves spread at the speed of light, so it was billion years ago.

Remember that I did 7 years of martial arts, I work from home, and I have an extremely busy schedule. (The point of the martial arts being that I know enough stretches to stretch for 70+ minutes solid without repeating a stretch, and at the same time hit almost every tendon in 20 minutes or less.)
So my "routine" is to do a set of stretches every half hour while I work -- 5 minutes of stretching 25 minutes of working, 5 minutes of stretching, 25 minutes of working. That gets me in about half an hour of stretching before lunch. Then during lunch I go on a half-hour walk where I start off going straight up into the Berkeley hills at a brisk pace to get out of breath, then keep my pace up enough that my heart doesn't slow down.
Plus, I get to eat almost nothing.
Between-meal snacks are THE killer.
Plan 2 meals a day. Avoid any snacks. You'll lose weight.

Yea that photo you can see the distinct two section body spiders have which I believe the "daddy long leg" we have here lacks.
@CY: Your welcome :)

No, I use the touchscreen. A mouse would be uncomfortable.

Probably a suggestion for me. One I might actually try out sometime assuming such devices can be located.

The words you are writing. They make no sense assembled like that.

Speaking of locational stuff. We here in Michigan have neat terms for the people living either north or south of the bridge. Those in the north are called Uppers (pronounced you-pers) and those of us living south of the bridge are called Trolls (because trolls are what live under the bridge. :)
In the Bay Area, we reckon Oakland is a place where you go to get shot. Even though my childhood neighborhood in San Jose wasn't exactly lead free. We also aren't supposed to like Los Angeles much. It's dirty, full of arrogance and two-facedness, and people talk funny.

They also confirmed that gravity waves spread at the speed oflightcausality that massless particals like light can travel at, so it was billion years ago.
Hm. 1.3 Billion light years is a really big distance.
Considering the universe is supposed to approximate at 13.82 billion years ago...
Interesting. They must have formed very early on.
Oh, hey: it looks like black holes formed with their own galaxies, so that's interesting. I didn't think they were able to form that quickly.
WELP. Deceptive almost-science in the article aside (no, it's not the gravity that traps the light, it's the collapse of- okay, you know what, nevermind), time to go back to mah learnin'...
I'm wearing shorts. :-)
I'm not! :D
