No, that's another source of income.

Maybe just search for better games then. There's plenty of mobile games that don't rely on gambling. Most are indie, but there are really some gems in there.

Serious AA titles, no. But apps? I can see that happen quite easily.

They were already on the phone with cops. I'm just buying time until they arrive. And he's a drunk, as far as we know not a murderer. My first instinct is not to kill anybody who has a slightly bad day.

No, but shooting them is an extreme reaction. I'm a woman alone. If this would have happened to me, I'd have barricaded the door, fled to another part of the house (there's more than one door in), put more barricades in between us and made absolutely sure I screamed the neighbourhood awake. Once there's more people to subdue him, the main problem is solved. Damages are to be covered by insurance. Now if he carried a gun, that's an entirely different matter. Still, I don't own a gun, never will, don't think I'll ever need one. Once a culture sees "shooting someone" as a first solution, things are down the drain imho.

They also seem to lack vision straight above them if they're sitting on a light surface. So if they land on your computerscreen or window when it gets darker, you can flick them and they won't see you coming. This will only stun the things for a second, so be quick to actually kill them/pick them up and dispose of them.

I'm more seeing it as tiny villages in the same country. Sometimes there's a duplicate Starbucks over in the other village, but they might have a different daily special. And some villages have beef with eachother, and then you gotta sneak out if you still want to secretly visit your beloved in the other village. Or move over to your summer house in village #3, where you can both meet up without issues.

We're at 1960/6001 right now. So almost 1/3. And the US is still 6 hours away from midnight, I suspect well over half to be dark eventually.
