I live a few miles from the border and cross at least weekly. You could generally get away with this for a handful of things, especially if you're smart about it (dispose of all packaging and tags, have an otherwise legit reason for a short visit, etc).

But if they question you, and they determine you're intentionally lying about it, you can expect to pay additional fines and lose several hours of your life.

Brilliant. Good setup, nice twist at the end.

Oh! And if she's into puzzles, look at Islands of Insight. First person with puzzle solving as the main mechanic, but also some exploration and a bit of mystery to it.

I'd consider what kind of game she finds fun and compelling--that's more likely to engage her to become familiar with the mouse/keyboard combo.

That being said, Minecraft on peaceful mode would fit and is generally approachable. Stardew Valley is pretty relaxed as well, though I don't remember whether it uses WASD specifically.

Yeah, but right now it's about SCOTUS. Sometimes it's other stuff.

Until there are viable options for ethical AI generation (that is, all training data is used with the authors' and artists' explicit permission), I'd suggest banning it, but erring on the lenient side when people aren't sure whether an image is AI-generated.

Remember the old ThinkPad idiom: "If the cracks are just plastic, it's still fantastic!"
