It's so ironic. Over the last few decades you could find millions of examples of the opposite question being asked.

Sounds like you liked it! I currently have a Samsung Note 8 and it's getting long in the tooth. I'll take a look :)

Dragon Age Origins, first run ever. Had to apply the 4GB patch, and it still crashes occasionally on modern hardware. Off and on.

BG3. Just started Act III, still in the outskirts. The third act is so imposing that I've taken a break just to clear headspace, hence DAO above

EU4 (Anbennar fantasy conversion mod) -- geez, this game is like crack for me. I'm now well over 4000 hours. I keep circling back. Most recent run was Dwarven Adventurer into Verkal Dromak -- the sleeper dwarves with the dream magic system. Long considered a hard start, you're now aided by an early game rebellion which can sometimes cripple your main enemies, the Hobgoblin country "The Command". Much fun.

Oh hi Jure of KDE fame ;)

How is KMail these days? I haven't used it in years. It always largely worked, but never really exceled at anything.

Business people post on LinkedIn. I do too. Gotta know your audience.

And a couple years ago, the water level was so high that Hay River was underwater and the government docks in Yellowknife were underwater... So it's swinging about pretty wildly in the last few years.

Probably this means a bad fire season again though :(

Fair enough. I'm also lazy and don't want to have to migrate :)

The cat is cute. Work is stressful. It's too damned hot (I hate summer). I should read more -- I miss having the time.

Very cool! I hosted a telegard BBS back in the day, and spent so much time making ANSI art for the menus haha.

Can you recommend any specific model of Sony phone? I'm thinking it'll be my next one. I have an older Sony Vaio that I loved, and it ran Linux like a charm. Need a new phone and will only buy one with a microSD slot so...

I know one of the Long Dark devs -- chill AF -- and if they are a representation of their company culture, then I would consider this less of a snipe, and more of a business model observation one would make over beers.

But, yeah, it is yet to be seen if Manor Lords is a flash in the pan, or has a long tail (like Paradox games or No Man's Sky or others).
