The only one I know personally has a very bad relationship with her mother, so she intentionally keeps a distance.

I know some do it even if they have a great relationship. It feels weird to me because it’s not the norm. Are they making a statement of some kind?

But basically only parents and grandparents are not called by name here. Uncles and aunts only when you’re young.

I try to be but it was honestly overwhelming since I’m actually not a very social person, especially not back then. Luckily he was talking most of the time. It was a learning experience for me and I’m glad I did it.

Once an old guy asked me to hold the door for him when the train stops so he can stand up and get out. I did but he took very long to stand up so I instinctively went to help him, the door closed and the train went on. So we both excited at the next stop and wanted to get the train back. It was the worst possible stop because the walk was crazy long and the old guy crazy slow. Me being way too helpful, I walked with him and he told me about how his family never visits him anymore and all kinds of trouble in his life, while one train after the other passed by. Eventually we arrived on the other side, got back to the original stop and exited. I escorted him to a taxi. He was very thankful for the adventure and I was a few hours late to work.

You can even take your favorite pieces home for continuous access.

For the dead person it doesn’t matter but for anyone else it’s better to put the rotting body where it doesn’t stink up the place.

3D level design where you can get stuck on elements when you just want to move past them. Especially frustrating in racing games or sections where you have to move fast. Controls are just not precise enough to deal with this under stress.

Visible polygons and interactable polygons are not the same thing. Play Banjo Kazooie and Yookah Laylee (including the remake) to see the difference. The latter has you constantly bump into things because the environment is not smoothed out.

On the other hand some studios take it to the other extreme and make you walk almost on rails, childproofing every corner. A good middle ground is needed.

Congratulations! I’m happy when I finish two games in a year.

It’s like going to a store and asking a random person nearby to pick out the item you want, which you are fully capable of reaching yourself, while you keep standing around and do nothing. Great human interaction.

I understand if the article is long or convoluted and you just need a short summary but even refusing to click the link and do a quick check is lazy AF and should not be encouraged. Or at least use AI for that.

I understand why both of you might be upset but they will eventually understand why it wasn’t the best gift idea for you and all will be fine. Those things happen, don’t interpret so much into it. It might not be as obvious to them as you think it should be that you don’t like new things. Talk about it in a respectful way, they wanted to do something nice for you after all.

(I personally don’t care for this game)

With my work skills I won’t be particularly useful before the first high level programming languages started coming in the 60s. But I also gained some handiwork knowledge over time so I won’t be a lost cause if someone sends me further back.

Valve will have a good enough overview on the situation and if they think it will hurt sales they can simply make a statement. They can handle it.

It’s interesting to discuss about the price but being upset about „idiots“ who have wrong ideas and playing hero for a multi billion dollar corporation is something I’m confused about.

So what exactly does that change? Valve already decided the price and that is what you will have to pay. Who cares what anyone ever predicted?

Which is why I don’t think they will sell at a loss but zero margin.

They could even add licensing restrictions so you can’t use them for commercial reasons or have to pay more for that.

I also recommend some Von Wegen Lisbeth

The profit comes from the games they sell.

It’s totally fine that you both like it and I’m not saying it’s a bad phone at all. It’s certainly very beautiful, probably feels nice in the hand and is overall a competent iPhone with just less camera. But most people are looking at the price, compare it to the other models and see that it just doesn’t make sense. It’s a pure luxury product that is still cheaper than a Pro so who exactly is the audience?

Germany mostly shines with Rap and Pop music.
