My 13 and 15 year olds are PC first gamers, then consoles, then mobile. I raised them that way on purpose because I wanted to avoid tablet and phone screens. I could control access better that way.

And yea, also because I’m a pc and console gamer and wanted to play my favorite games with them.

The older one has started playing mobile games more often and yea, it’s Genshin and Honkai. That kid was always in love with Fire Emblem, so Honkai makes sense to me. The stories are all kind of the same.

A friend stayed with us for a few days and they have a 12 and 10 year old. I have every console imaginable, PCs on big screens, and they never left their tablets.

I think once kids get on the tablet/phone/mobile games, they don’t really leave. I don’t know that I would have either.

Joust. Easily understood game for little ones, and you can discourage player killing.

They’re expensive because they’re cover for the executives to make a move. The executives can shield liability and justify any change by saying they did it in consultation with a big firm. It’s virtually impossible to pierce that with a lawsuit.

That Thuram miss was rough. It’s a different game if he scores there. It goes from feeling like it can get out of control to a very manageable game.

Those Juve teams were incredible. That defense, man.

Conte is a damned good coach.

Wrote this after Man U and Tottenham played early in the season and I feel like it aged like wine:

This is a sorta top end mid level club with no designs on top 4. What they do get they get from feasting on lower quality clubs but even, you can’t help but think there’s a ceiling there. It’s a good club, don’t get me wrong. I just don’t think they have the quality to break thru.

But I guess that’s always the story of Tottenham.

That other club looked like a bucket of shit.

I’ve got a 9.9kwh install on my roof in Seattle and it was mostly cloudy today and I produced 55.7kwh today, which far exceeds my daily usage.

Man I loved my tiny flip phone I got in Korea in 2000. It was killer. I wish tiny phones made a comeback.

Aside from this being false, it’s kinda crazy that Steam has had no significant public leaks.

Good lord. What a confident finish.

I had the same experience as many here. Great place to start out and if you don't need or want more control then it's perfect. I ended up on unraid and mostly use docker for apps.
