My husband and I really like Wonderbook. It’s a campaign game with several chapters. The theming is a bit childlike sometimes but the mechanics are fun.

We met via tabletop RPGs and that’s what we still do every two weeks but if we’re hanging on Discord it’s mainly Overwatch but also Wildermyth and Mech Warrior.

Currently playing the Ace Attorney Trilogy! I’m also eagerly waiting for Next Fest to start tomorrow to try out various demos.

Currently re-playing the Ace Attorney Trilogy as I got it on Steam during the sale. I played them back in the day on the DS and it’s been a blast. I just checked out Jack Jeanne - it seems to have some sort of skill building aspects to it? I’ve been looking for a stat builder otome but there isn’t much out there.

If I have to pick something, I’d say the thumb clusters. I barely use the top ones in the center because they’re a bit of an awkward reach for my hand size. The bottom ones on the outside are also weird because you’d need to do some finger curl or move your hands. I just ended up mapping the keys I don’t use as much over there and it hasn’t been an issue, but it is some wasted potential :)

I have first lobes on both ears and since last month a helix/flat on my right! I am quite sensitive to nickel so for most of my life, I tried having earrings but always reacted badly. I didn’t get my lobes properly done at a piercer until 2021 and them using titanium helped. My right lobe is still finicky but we’re working on it.

I use it for recipes! I use the iOS app Mela for recipe storage and it has a built-in RSS feed system to follow recipe blogs so you can easily add new recipes to your collection without having to visit all the sites separately.

Sadly sorting on new also has its issues with the auto updates and content getting pushed down automatically. I’m hoping that gets fixed soon.

The Sims 2 & Animal Crossing: Wild World.
Both of them definitely have a heavy nostalgia filter on top of them but I loved playing Sims 2 and creating all different kinds of stories and lives. 3 & 4 didn’t feel that same way. AC:WW was a cozy pocket to hide away in and just be happy. Chatting up some neighbors, decorating your house. I was always eager to see what would be in the shops the next day.
For more modern games, I would say A Short Hike. Cozy and short but sweet story. It’s a great pick-me-up if you ever need one.

Although I’m a bit sad about no plans for Apollo for Lemmy, I definitely get the reasoning he gives - a double heartbreak is the last thing I’d wish on him. I got the Pixel Pals app (yay, cute raccoons!) to show support for his work & the challenges lately.

The whole bot comments accusing bot comments of being bot comments surely was intriguing. And that’s with them copy-pasting existing comments - wonder how many “users” are GPT bots lately.

Yeah, their interview with Christian Selig was an interesting read as well: Apollo’s Christian Selig explains his fight with Reddit — and why users revolted

I wonder if the comments about no significant revenue drop still holds true today. I was quite surprised to see that there doesn’t seem to be too big a drop in posts & comments (~1k) aside from the crash yesterday. https://blackout.photon-reddit.com/

Reply to wrong post bug :(

I use both but I’m terrible at taking meds regularly (ha, the irony!).
For losing track of time during meetings/focus sessions, I use a Time Timer to visually see time passing by/showing how much time is left.
For reminders, I use Due on iOS (+ Apple Watch) as it continues to send reminders until you do the thing and check it off.
For to-do lists, I use both paper planning with a bullet journal-esque notation as well as a whiteboard for “temporary” planning, like creating a prioritization matrix, as it allows me to shift things around more easily.

Sea of Thieves. I tried it but something about the camera/movement made me physically sick right from the start. I’m also not too big of a fan of the character designs. I get pirates are scruffy and rowdy, yarrr, but they didn’t seem to have ones that looked somewhat like a regular person.

I tried Mastodon first but I never really was much of a Twitter user. I find that format in general makes it difficult to find information about specific topics and there’s not as much discussion. I’m liking Lemmy way more because I like the forum style format. It’s certainly interesting watching all the “duplicate” communities across the instances though, I’m hoping it’ll settle down a bit.

If you’re not looking to tinker, the Logitech Ergo K860 is a great keyboard. I had to swap to an ergo keyboard due to wrist issues and it really helped. However, I’m a sucker for mech keyboards (& clickies) so I ended up building an Iris. I don’t have it tented, the ortho + split is enough for me. It took some time to get used to swapping layers but after a while it all becomes muscle memory. I can definitely recommend a split keeb! Iris with KAT Milkshake and Kailh Box Whites

Missing the keyboard smash and the xyz_final_final

I’ve been interested in trying Disco Elysium, good to know that it runs well on the Deck! You mentioned playing on the train - is it a good game to play in short bursts?
