Fair point on WoW and I totally forgot Starcraft 2. Diablo 3 I played extensively, yet I felt somewhat disgusted by the end of it. But it's a product of that time. If I think about the games I played recently, nothing holds except Warc

Isn't Activision Blizzard, which implies they make call of duty which is one of the games that makes the most money out there? I don't like any of that, but they do make money. As for good games, the last one was warcraft 3 maybe

Oh god YES! I paid for paint.net on Windows because it's the only software I find reasonably simple AND reasonably advanced, covering all my usage. The lack of a linux version was a huge disappointment, especially since most of my comp

We have kindle scribe and a kobo at home, the kobo experience has been way more rough for epubs. On amazon all I do is access amazon.ca/sendtokindle and I can upload the same epub to my phone and ereader AND keep the current page in sy

I am not lazy (for work. I am in my personal life) but when I procrastinate it's due to lack of clarity or due to issues acquiring focus. Both I have ways to address, so I completely agree with you

I mean, I would be in jail for a long time if every time I went to a friend "I wanted to shoot him" was flagged. God that's horrible.

We have personal small towels to dry off near each bidet in Italy. Not sure if you mean that or the fact that we pre-clean with toilet paper

People say that but even in Italy where bidet is common, you do the first 1-2 passes with toilet paper, then proceed to use a bidet

I do exactly that, I am 100% on board with you. Ignoring business and team scale in that question brought big damage to businesses, by developing software overly complex at times. And the cost is of course hidden behind a salary of develope

Oh, finally somebody who gets it! That was incidentally my major disappointment with vim: it is keyboard driven, but the UX wasn't designed to be a perfect keyboard experience (which I expected, given how old it is). Some examples of w

Some videogames that really captured me from the plot perspective have a relatively short plot if the gameplay is taken out. I am thinking of Outer Wilds and Blue Prince. Surprisingly Mario has essentially no plot, yet it turned out very fu

The super mario movie (the new one). I really enjoyed it. As for Doom, I have no clue. They managed to mess up Assassin's Creed, which supposedly has a great plot

What about giving her a gaming device instead (like a Nintendo Switch)? You said "playing", not "instagram" or "facebook" right?

Same here. I see so many studied mentioning "attention span will be zero". Ok, did you look at videogames? There are some videogames that require deep focus for 45 minutes at a time. Now of course you can feed them free to play tr

Clearly have no clue what they are talking about, there is plenty of way to lose at vampire survivors, winning requires a lot of exploration. The game is NOT the movement except if you build your character particularly poorly. The game is e

I worked remote my entire life, I have never worked in the office (I did occasionally go for socialization purposes at one company), that's 20 years working remote. Would that be sufficient of a proof? I am not looking for a job, just

I mean, I needed to replace my thinkpad x1 carbon gen 3 keyboard and I started looking at videos and... You can do it, but it's absolutely bonkers what you need to do.

I don't get how people come up with the idea of paying interests on a credit card. The interests are extortion level, 20%? Wtf? A personal line of credit is like 8%

Is public transit even that important with ev? I don't want to discourage public transit, I am just less hopeful in changing the entire culture of some countries which are car centric

And my experience is based on Italy, where the children are loaded with homeworks since grade 2. Clear memories of spending half the weekend doing homeworks instead of playing outside

Thank you, I realized that could be misunderstood only afterwards. I consider hobbies highly important for my mental health, so children are highly important too

by Fire-Dragon-DoL 1mo ago
No, I am not saying that in a negative way. I have kids and I love them deeply. I am saying that the people who have kids now are aware of how much effort it involves, so they consider it "part of hobbies" (as in, interesting thin

Children are part of hobbies. Very challenging at times, but for example I sleep with my kid hugging me, or I chat with them while in the car, or we do chores while watching tv or something like that. And not every day is packed like that,

If a parent starts with a home bought by the grandparent and dual income and a lot of money, and end up not having a pension because they spent all the money on holidays and multiple homes and zero investing, would you feel like you need to

Fair, although some kind of certificate of when the pregnancy started could be given to whoever has pregnancy as soon as they go to a doctor to get it. By default, I mean, not upon request. This way it could be certified how far the pregnan

It's not a direct answer, but Nucleus Coop (Windows only) allows playing multiple instances of the same videogame with different savefiles and allow using multiple keyboards and mice (is it mice for the hardware thing?) It's an in
