If you want the full comfy chillax experience, add the mod that just lets you pause time whenever you want. Feel like fishing but don’t want to miss something? Take a pause and relax with a rod for a bit.

I also suffer from min/max gaming and this is the only way I could enjoy the game without being stressed.

Specialized LLMs trained for specific tasks can be immensely beneficial! I’m glad to see some of that happening instead of “Company XYZ is now needlessly adding AI to it’s products because buzzwords!”

I had the Secret of Monkey Island on a CDROM as a kid and the soundtrack of the original is burned deep into my brain.

Fun fact: you could put the game CD into a normal CD player, skip track 1 (The data track) and just vibe listening to the entire soundtrack while rollerblading.

Time for me to give it another listen, I hope it holds up!

There’s no other system that quite captures the feeling of, “Shit, that was a lot of damage. Do I try to heal them before it rolls to 0 or just spam attack and hope to end combat before they go down?”

I agree, throwing enemies into stacks is much more amusing than everyone just standing around.

I can only imagine how terrifying it must be to face the pressure of an entire government for sharing information. Edward Snowden, Julian Assange, Aaron Swartz, Reality Winner, and many more people have bravely shared information at great personal cost and have faced consequences because of it. I wish Mr. Li the best of luck, because long after he is forgotten by most of the Internet he will still be suffering blowback for the brave act of spreading truth. Not all heros wear capes, but some may look like cats.

It doesn’t matter any more than any other individual data point. The concern is that when all the data points are collated, it gives a LOT more information about someone than many people realize.
