Why they can't integrate the messenger function into the main app is beyond me, but maybe that's why I'm not a mobile app developer.

They can, and did for a while. They don't want to.

Dishonored is the best game (along w bioshock 1) and I want to play both again but I've played them so much I know every tiny little thing about both so it wouldn't even be fun.

I was never able to play to the end of that game, due to a very strong phobia. Was so much fun, but had to watch a let's play to see how the game ended.

I don't have the game so I wouldn't know but people were pulling up near the guy's car and getting out just to walk around for a minute so it was obvious what was happening. At least they were looking at their phones the whole time.

I decided last night (since I have off today) to go to a local arboretum today to do some random walking-around as well as get rid of some unhatched Pokemon Go eggs. The idea was that each hiking loop is basically an egg, so I'd do a few loops I've never hiked before.

Got here, did a loop, and now I'm tired. Not physically tired (legs don't hurt, etc), but sleepy tired because I went to bed an hour earlier than normal and I mildly overslept.

Am I the only one that only has the FB messenger app but not the FB app?

They probably fixed it a while ago, but the Android FB app used to be a huge battery hog, even just in the background. So I just go to the FB mobile site, and then have the Messenger app.

I turned off all the permissions it wants and it still works.

I can't make calls or do video chat with it, or send pictures, but I don't need/want to. I figure that cuts back on the "information stealing" aspect.

There's only like 3 people who for some reason hit me up on FB chat with any regularity, and then I get the occasional message from someone who doesn't have my phone # (usually random family members inviting my to some cousin's b-day party or something.)

Nope. The messenger app is handy and I use it fairly often. The main FB app is worse than just loading up the website. I've never understood the complaining about them being split up, because it just means you can still use messenger without having to have the rest of it.

Vote shit sandwich or the shit sandwich gets it!
I don't have neither the Facebook app nor the Messenger one. I look at the site in the browser (I have a shortcut set up), but when I use that to look at the messages it displays them but then kicks me into Play Store to try and get me to install Messenger, so I have to do several taps instead of just one to read the message.

I refuse to install Messenger because I already have four messaging apps (text messages, Whatsapp, Line, and Hangouts - yes I know that Hangouts can do text messages too, but I hate it with a passion and just barely tolerate it for google chats), and I refuse to install a fifth for that once-in-a-blue-moon Facebook message I get.

"It Don't Make You A Bad Person"
I had 3 days off of work. The first day I smoked a pork butt so we didn't go anywhere. The 2nd day we went to Dollywood and had a ton of fun.

The 3rd day was supposed to be a chill at home day but the wife mentioned going back to Dollywood and more rides sounded good.

So instead of just renting a hotel for night we had to drive home and back. Which is only like 2 1/2 hours total.

I make so much more money now than I used to that I'm just constantly confused. I make more per paycheck then I used to in two months. I'm so accustomed to panicking over money that I don't know how to behave now. My life just suddenly became comfortable and I still have no idea what to do with that. I can pay my rent ahead of time instead of freaking out and deciding what not to pay on time every month. It's unfamiliar, strange territory.

Hello, me from 22 months ago. I'm here to let you know that 22 months into the future, you're still not used to it! :haw:

In all seriousness though, congratulations, and enjoy yourself! :) Contribute to your 401k, take vacations, go to baseball games, and develop (or re-develop) a video game habit. That's pretty much what I'm doing to "cope" with my no-longer-new situation.

My laptop picked the perfect time to botch a windows 10 update so I had to restore everything to factory default just to get it working. Meaning all the work I had saved is gone and now I have the fun of re downloading and installing everything.

Also I found out the sequel to the book I just finished went out of print several years ago and no one has it in stock anywhere. It ended on a god drat cliff hanger and I just want to know what happens.

Go to worldcat.org, see which library has it and go there, or go to your local library and ask about an interlibrary loan for it. There might be a small fee for postage, but nothing major.
