I’ll give an honorable mention to Terraria–largely because I had to explain it to someone recently and it was more difficult than I anticipated.

Yeah, you can just say “2D Minecraft,” but it’s more than that. It’s almost an RPG in terms of advancements and equipment development, and it’s very combat oriented. But it’s not really a sidescroller or a metroidvania type, because the digging and building plays a huge part.

Less genre defining, and more living in the liminal space between a lot of other genres.

The one thing that really sticks out is the chin.

I see what you did there

Power word: Flacid

Another consideration: changing email providers. Any email address using your custom domain can travel with you to other providers, where you can just set up another catch-all address. Aliases are specific to your email provider, so if you want to switch, you’d need to manually go to every site and update each login to a new alias.

And you can always get two domains–one for your more sensitive stuff, and a cheap generic one for the rest. A lot of domains are dirt cheap if you don’t care what the TLD is.

Catch-alls are more easily traceable, yes, but depending on your privacy concerns vs convenience (and your fear of getting locked out of an account if your alias becomes unavailable, for example), it might be worth it for you.

Not sure why he lost. He could have claimed to run it through an AI that was only trained on the one picture.

I’m saying she’s an academy award nominated character actor and producer

Yeah, at this point, it’s polite to arrange a call, especially if it’s probably more than a minute or two. And as you’ve noted, it’s also more successful than a cold call.

Have we forgotten that we also have Margot Robbie?

Sorry, the cheese has spoken.

My wife has ADHD. I feel you, fam.

Easy access to a few key functions is nice, IMO. Though helping someone on their computer and seeing half the taskbar occupied with two dozen system tray icons makes me vomit just a little, so I get it.

Being “up for” something is the same as being “down with” something.

“You’re shit” and “you ain’t shit” mean the same thing.

“Giving in” and “giving out” sometimes mean the same thing.

English is a delightful mess of redundancy and contradictions.

Shortly after getting a cell phone, I made a personal policy that most people don’t get a free pass to interrupt my life whenever they want (there are a handful of people on the short list, of course). I’ve had friends and family comment that I’m hard to contact by phone, and I’ve always pleasantly agreed (and explained politely if they seem interested). Even texts or other messages can wait until I’m at a good place to respond.

For me, having my phone on silent most of the time is a mental health thing. I know people that have their attention diverted every few minutes, and I have no idea how they survive.

Approaching infinite volume, by the looks of them

They’re more different than people might expect. I like both, but they’re very different experiences.

To be fair, the only way to afford a place like this is to run some sort of lab out of it.
