The former. They weren't that good.

Can confirm! My daughter is getting pretty good at video games and our video game time together is some of my fondest.

Any parents looking for a good co-op game, I can't recommend Wobbly Life enough. It's basically kid-friendly, multiplayer GTA with zero predatory mechanics. It's a flat $15, and goes on sale sometimes. There's loads of content, and more coming out pretty regularly. We're 55 hours in and nowhere near exhausting the fun.

I guess it's about time I got around to playing the first one, then.

Aliens. I was terrified of facehuggers being under my bed for a decade. Not so much anymore.

My aging work PC (Xeon E3 1230V2) regularly stops booting, and this works for me. It had 16gb of memory, but I had to throw out one of the sticks. The other thing that gets it working again sometimes is tightening or loosening the CPU cooler screws. Thankfully, it's old enough to still do the BIOs beep codes which tipped me off to the tightening the CPU fix. I've got some newer parts lying around (an AMD 2600x and 16gb of DD4) I'll turn into a full PC when it finally dies, but for now it just keeps going and going.

Lexx is ... demented. And the quality is very inconsistent. For every brilliant episode, there's a total clunker. I never finished watching the final season, but I really enjoyed the parts of it that I did enjoy.

I'm about an hour into giving this circular cursor thing a try, and I think I'm a convert. You think it'd be hard to click on things given the overlap, but the color swap when you're over an interactable really sells it. Thanks!

That's... immensely cool. I wish him luck in his dangerous endeavors.

Download GODOT and learn the scripting language and the shader language. Make a game! Or at least neat shader art.

Bonus answer: Csound. Make funky noises with code.

Haha! My favorite (the only) middle eastern food place near where I live used to give too much pita with everything. It was glorious.

Like just about everywhere, COVID hit them and now you get barely enough. Sigh.
