how the fuck are these not legally sold over the counter already? Sorry, not American.

Dunno where you live, but at least in Finland you do need a prescription for contraceptive pills, they're not sold OTC

Mine was an IBM 286 system. Played Commander Keen, Jill of the Jungle, Duke Nukem (1)... It was magical.

The UI on both the NVidia Shield TV and LG webOS apps is much, much snappier for one. There was always a bit of lag navigating the Plex UI.

I have had some issues with subtitles though; Watching a series and going to the next episode, the selected subtitles language won't persist, and trying to pick the subtitles doesn't work without backing out of the episode, starting playback again and picking the subs.

Also, Plex had the builtin subtitle search feature which Jellyfin doesn't have. There's a plugin, but it doesn't seem like you can use it on the TV app, only on the web UI.

Still, even with these sharp edges, using Jellyfin feels much nicer and cleaner, as I really wasn't feeling the commercial / forced account creation / data collection / ads aspect of Plex.

Queen conch have long eye stalks that can be moved independently and a tube-like mouth called a proboscis that can pull into its shell if threatened.

I am so sorry

My two cents; I'm in a very similar boat with my GF, and Outer Wilds was unfortunately a bit too slow paced and open ended for her, so I ended up completing it by myself (and absolutely loving it). Same with The Witness unfortunately. Both are very much in my personal top three though.

But to make it not all negative, some recommendations!

We enjoyed The Room series by Fireproof Games a lot. It's an escape room puzzle box type of a deal with a really cool, slightly creepy atmosphere, and there's multiple games out already. The games are quite linear and focused, so my GF didn't bounce off. We're escape room junkies and haven't found a better digital fix. Escape Room Simulator is decent, but not quite up there in production quality.

Another fun one is the games by Rusty Lake. They're mechanically similar, if a bit less flashy than The Room, but the puzzles are mostly fun and the story/atmosphere/music is really neat.

And yeah, Obra Dinn is absolutely our number one favorite game, but that one was already mentioned.

Well that's pretty unfortunate. I quite liked Reddit's "anonymous likes" approach.

I don't personally have that big of a problem with my posts/comments being "persistent", as I have a fairly high threshold for commenting and refrain from commenting anything too incendiary. And anyway, posts/comments, as I see it, are public and should be considered as such.

However, what I'm still a bit unclear on is the privacy of my votes/saves in the Fediverse. Should I start exercising the same caution in what I upvote or save? I understand that my home instance admins will have access to this data, but is that it?

Oh wow, this one's awesome. Thanks!

In addition to being good games, neither has any microtransactions, ads, or any of that BS, was happy to give the devs some money.

Absolutely not. 100% ruins the joke, in my opinion.
