Magic the Gathering? No one said it has to be video games, right? 😆

I was going to guess “Gone Home”, but then I looked at the hint. 😅

My guitar’s in my mind!

Very much feel the same! “Beat the game” made more sense back when it felt like the game was trying to defeat you, whether that was for more quarters in the arcade or for more perceived value at home. But I switched to saying “finished (or completed) the game” a long time ago as the general nature of gaming shifted over the years. For story games with multiple endings, I might say I “finished it” if I don’t plan to go back and see other branches, or “completed it” if I got all endings.

I too am curious if this an age-related tendency or not, I’m in my 40s.

YEP. My outgoing voicemail message explicitly says “don’t leave a message, I never check them, send me a text instead”. (90% of the calls I get are spam or scam, so my voicemail messages are almost always just portions of their pre-recorded b.s.)

Aww! On the plus side, though, you have absolute certainty that she wants this experience and proposal to happen. 😊 Pre-congrats on your engagement!

Wouldn’t it be better to simply never give the tv a wifi password? Or am I missing something here?

Also, Roku is also quite bad about data collection and selling, IIRC. ☹️ But the only real choice seems to be which company you’ll let collect the data, not whether they can.

“ I never thought my cisgender, female-identifying nine-year-old would need to be defended against a transphobic attack.”

We trans folks have been warning people as much as we can for years and years that this is the natural and expected result of transphobia and hate, but few ever seem to hear us. 😞 The goal of these people isn’t just to drive trans people into the closet and make it impossible for us to exist in public, it’s also to enforce their rigid ideas about gender roles for everyone.

I am so exhausted. 😩

Given that they’ve already announced plans for two Content Creator Packs for post-launch (included in the Ultimate Edition / Expansion Pass), I’m led to expect there will be. 🙂 Paradox and CO do seem to understand that the community was a huge part of C:S1’s success, and I don’t think they take that support for granted. Time will tell us for sure, but I’m feeling good about it.

Sure, but has John Mastodon weighed in yet? 🙂

With everything new we learn, this sequel is looking better and better. I’m hype!! 😄

You’re asking if it has rumble specifically inside the triggers, not just in general, correct? If so, I can confirm the Pro 2 doesn’t have any such feature. And if the Ultimate did, they’d probably say so on their website, so I doubt it does.
