Don’t overcount your lilacs
Don’t overwater_ _ _ your limes

O=3 more letters, the w needs to be a different consonant, the three missing letters appear in the word here, the letter w needs to be is in the answer on another section
L=one more letter, another plant in the Citrus genus

Do you actually need to crank out faster brain performance for anything or are you just annoyed to waste thought on something you don't identify with?

To be fair, I don't particularly care about my gender. It's mostly an extraneous thing to me, and it takes around 10 years in brain-time to fetch it because it's fallen so low in the memory hierarchy. I'd be happy to eliminate it altogether. In some ways, it is because I don't wish to identify with it, but I also realized the potential in it as a way to optimize my brain even further. I'm conflicted.

Brainspeed is just as important to me as removing extraneous things from my self-identity, and usually, those two goals are aligned. But now I'm in a situation where I'm picking between self-identity and brainspeed. I don't even really know why I'm trying to achieve higher and higher brainspeeds through optimizing the hell out of myself anymore. It was there to crank out performance when I need to (partially) emulate a normal person. I still need it. When my medication drunkens me, the emulation accuracy starts dropping and it becomes harder and harder to push out coherent responses to things people say.

I need the power, but do I really need that much power? But what will I do if I'm not doing that? I think I need a better hobby than trying to overclock my brain all the time. It would be healthier.

Don't overlaterate your lemons.

Keep 'em nice and vertical.

Only the L in overlaterate needs to be changed. You are verrry close

Don’t oversaturate your lemons?

Ding ding ding
Winner!

I thought that, but "oversaturate" has a 'u'!

The important thing is that we're free to to both acknoledge what we are, and also

whoops, sorry

C:DDA is legit harder to learn than DF. I'm trying.

[King Zultan]

I had the opposite experience because I tried fortress mode several times and every time I end up giving up after a bit because I can't figure stuff out, but I found C:DDA easy to play. I can't speak about the newer versions where they added a bunch of shit that makes the game slower and less fun as I only play an old version.

Which parts of the game are you having trouble with?

[KittyTac]

Well I mostly played adventure mode in DF and found it easy enough.

I'm finding just... Surviving hard. Hard to explain. I'll read up on more guides I guess.

If a thing that can produce video output (computers, oscilloscopes, Task Manager...) exists, it will have a version of Bad Apple made for it.

If you go down the rabbithole of the demoscene, you will eventually hit a version of Bad Apple.

[MaxTheFox]

I actually prefer the newer versions.

Adventure mode is what I play as well.

Also if you have trouble surviving have you tried picking a start that has you away from town at the start to give you some time to find or craft better weapons and armour without having to worry about zombies showing up.
