This is a little convoluted but stay with me:

Weather Underground is (IMHO) the best weather site. A large source of their data is personal weather stations. There should be good advice on their site about these and if not then their users should have done research on them. So I would recommend checking out their site as if you want to set up your own personal weather station.

I have Dorfromantik and play it occasionally. It is very relaxing, which can be nice. And very, very simple. So simple that I sort of hesitate to call it a game. There is some sort of scoring, depending on the mode you play. But I always pretty much ignored the scoring and didn't even want to try to understand how it worked. It is fun just to make your little town, forest, river, train track, etc. So it is more like model railroading to me than a videogame. But highly structured and guided model railroading.

I am very happy with my induction range. I switched from gas just before this info about gas ranges became a thing.

Much less use of handle covers with my cast iron frying pans because it directly heats instead of throwing heat everywhere. Boils water faster than my microwave. And health bonuses too.

A few from my closet: Castle Panic (with expansion set), Labyrinth (Ravensburger), Classic card games: Crazy 8s, Go Fish, Hearts and Old Maid. Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots, Mille Bornes, Pirate's Cove, Stratego, Battleship, Chess, Checkers, Chinese Checkers, and Laser Khet 2.0.

And story dice are fun with any number of people.

Is it possible to have your web browser use VLC for videos? Will it play YT video?

I have it on both my PC and phone. Maybe it works on one but not the other?

Is physical media still available for most Disney stuff? How viable an alternative is that now?

GIF central in here. Was not expecting that. You might say it was a surprise.

That wink really sells it.

Are you claiming Hanlon's razor as your defense, sir?

I think OP intentionally misquoted Batman:
