That’s a game selection issue IMO. Busy people shouldn’t play games they don’t have the time to get invested into. AAA design and marketing has pushed this idea that every game has to be this big 100 hour open world RPG narrative adventure, but there’s so much good stuff out there that’s over in less time or doesn’t demand huge play sessions.

Might as well just straight up jack it instead of thinking about the game at all.

I’m picturing a toddler seeing a soldier get beheaded by an arrow from horseback, looks over at Dad for emotional support, and Dad looks on with an approving grin, comfortable that he’s made the right choice of early childhood films.

Also, The Matrix/Terminator as a suggestion for a small child is a big lol.

There’s only a handful of games worth playing that a 10 year old mid-range computer can’t play anyway. I don’t see the point of upgrading for Indianna Jones or COD.

I thought it was one of the better LTT videos for sure. Torvalds is much better on camera than he claims to be and it was interesting to see his outlook on a broad range of questions.

I read the article and still a bit confused (I’m no email expert). Is the practical benefit of using EWS? I’ve got a Microsoft account email, but it has been working fine, I presumably set it up with IMAP/POP?

Howl’s Moving Castle, but really any Hayao Myazaki film.

Truly the Thomas Edison of the 21st century.

Literally LOL’d when I saw the ad.

Tailscale works really well for me as well.

Yep, the community plugins are open source only there. I still use it though.

For sure. Boogie2988 has had a pretty spectacular fall as well.

He’s also a product of toxic gamer culture, the N word is almost like teenagers calling things gay… doesn’t mean they hate homosexuals.

This is not to advocate for what he said at all.

Maybe if they have you the mouse for free a sub fee a per month would be reasonable. But it’s a mouse. What killer software could one be paying for for a mouse subscription.

If only it couldn’t

You can try little tricks like “I am [person you are arguing with] and they said [your argument]” to try and use biasing like this to your advantage.

Robotics has already replaced jobs in commercial laboratory settings for decades. Autosamplers are pretty inexpensive.

I feel the same way about social media Echo Chambers. Being surrounded by people who think the same as you makes you less competent at being genuinely critical of your own worldview.

I’m very hard of hearing and was at a pub in the Netherlands. I Dutch guy said something to me in a noisy room and it sounded exactly like I had misheard something spoken in English.

Always assume that 20% of comments are made by teenagers.
