On a related note, have you heard of the Three Moves Ahead podcast? It seems like it'd be right up your alley: it's entirely focused on strategy games

For me, it very much depends on the game:

  • Masocore game like Only Up? I love watching other people struggle with it and have zero desire to play it myself
  • Factorio or Dyson Sphere Program or similar games where the fun (for me) comes in coming up with my own creations? 99% of the time I want to play, not watch. Some exceptions: if someone is attempting a ludicrous challenge, or the occasional tips video

It's a useful term, particularly for subcultures

It's ripe for exploitation, too. The tooling isn't mature yet, so malicious actors are having a field day

Likely an overreaction to the current protests / social unrest / whatever you want to call it

Agreed. It seems like such a basic feature. I’m missing it on kbin

The problem is it isn’t just data backups, it’s that one’s email is the backing account for many other accounts online either as a TFA or as the username for some site.

Still 100% remote, and have been for over three years (software engineer). And even before covid, I was often doing hybrid roles. I work so much better remotely.

My current company is trying to press for "5% travel" to have people attend the idiotic on-site meetings, but they haven't forced me to do it

Might quit my job soon (for other reasons). I'm committed to staying fully remote even if it makes my job search harder (which it undoubtedly will).

I remember seeing a demo in the mall when I was a kid. It looked so futuristic

It’s tough. You’re having a rational response to a difficult future. But there are things you can do to at least help your peace of mind. Take news breaks. Meditate. Reflect on the things you are grateful for.
