I think you can get a plate that will allow you to attach that Yeti to your Packout!

Thank you!

If I knew how to attach pictures to comments there would be a picture here of my shelf that has one if these games sitting on it.

This is why I am a happy Kagi user.

I’ve been playing Civ since the very first one. I got my start with it on the Amiga 2000.

Your concerns echo mine, but I also know that Sid rarely makes missteps. So while I’m concerned, I’ll wait until I actually get to play it.

I suffer night terrors, not horribly frequently, but frequently enough that they are memorable experiences. I wake up screaming and I apparently scream very loudly.

Entertainingly they have a common theme across all the years I’ve been having them (they started in my teens, so over 40 years). The always feature men in black leather trenchcoats (think SS), dogs, concertina razor wire, an cliff’s edges.

I always end up dead either from machine gun fire or going over the cliff.

I blame The Great Escape.

I would love to be able to wake up before the screaming starts.

My wife and I weren’t sure what to expect. We took one run at it, failed, then a few months later took another run. We are now thinking we need to watch it again. Truly wholesome.

I’m on my fourth watch of Gilmore girls. Third with my wife. First with my daughter.

Absolutely brilliant TV.

I think there is a lot of wisdom here. I’m old, many of my meaningful relationships were formed before three was an internet. Now I use online tools to stay in touch with friends who are friends I have interacted with face-to-face, not people know solely online.

That’s not to say meaningful relationships cannot be owned online. I have met a number of people IRL who I originally met playing Football Manager or on XBox Live.

But online relationships are not a substitute for real face-to-face interactions.

I tell people that making friends needs to be intentional. It takes work and commitment.

She knows she is in the minority.

I am just sad she’s missing out.

Witcher 3 is my number 1 game of all time. My wife won’t play it because she hates Geralt’s voice.

We’re playing on XBox Series X, and it behaves reasonably well. We typically split-screen while exploring, and merge the screens during battles.

When playing Divinity:Original Sin 2 we remained in merged screens 90% of the time, but for some reason it feels off in BG3, so we go with the merge only in battles.

Baldurs Gate 3 split screen with my wife.

Alright, I’ll give it a shot.

I love the Blues, but Captain Beefheart doesn’t speak to me at all. I think your usage of “avant garde” is exactly right.

I absolutely do not understand Captain Beefheart. I have some on my media server but it is all rated 1-star.

I don’t think it’s that one, though that pilot is a pretty smart fella!

It’s this one…

The smart guy: You really think you can fly that thing?

The pilot: You really think you can do all that bullshit you just said?

No we wouldn’t, there’s a documentary about this kind of thing. We’d send a super-talented pilot and the World’s greatest hacker (who no one listened to). And they would fly into the Alien ship and the hacker would hack it and it would blow up.

I agree it’s disrespectful. I have often picked butts up and handed them back.

For people in motor vehicles, I tend to pick them up and tuck the butt under their windshield wiper. This is relatively easy if I’m on my motorcycle stopped at a traffic light.

Why should any human being be treated poorly?
