In any specific god? no. What I believe is that we don’t know and will never know anything beyond our own existence. We don’t know what we are, in the grand scheme of things (or if there’s a grand scheme at all). We don’t even know if we actually exist.

I just live my life to the best of my abilities and shrug off all that “beyond my existence” stuff as pointless. If I tried to think about it, I don’t believe I would ever come anywhere close to a real answer anyway.

If you approach it with a standard videogame attitude (get the strongest weapons and most powerful skills, steal everything that is worth good money and so on), then it is a solid game.

If you approach it as a simulated tabletop rpg game, it is fantastic. You can experiment with all sorts of things. For example: in one fight I was outnumbered and cornered in a small room, with enemies coming from outside. I pulled some furniture in front of the door to block the passage, threw some oil on the ground in the other side and lit it with a torch, then hid my characters behind the walls out of any projectile’s path until I could fully heal them.

Unlike other games those weren’t things that the devs put there specifically for this fight. There was no button prompt suggesting the furniture could be moved or anything like that. They just put a bunch of stuff in the world that can be interacted with in many ways depending on what sort of skill you have and leave it up to you to find a way to use them, or not. You can still min-max your stats and ignore all that. You won’t even know you’re missing anything.

I realized I had overdone it when two weeks in they were going to send me a free hoodie shipped from a different continent.

At least I ran out of things to buy there.

I don’t know anything from the early century but there’s Superstore from 2015 which had a lot of stuff on that level.

First morning at the job he comes in wanting to impress, so he copies some company data to his personal laptop to do extra work at home. He got fired at noon. The official reason was that he had copied that stuff without authorization, but a more likely reason was that someone had accidentally written an extra zero on the offer they made him, because it was several times above average in the area.

Who even still uses apple devices in 2023?

Eh, no need to bring the iOS/Android fight into this. OP saw an opportunity for a joke and took it. The butt of the joke is iOS because that’s what the sub is about. If it were for android the same joke could be made, though folks would probably make different ones with other more glaring issues that Google has.

I switched my laptop for a desktop a long time ago since I always work from home anyway, but yesterday I had to go the city my company’s office is in and thought: “I can work with the steam deck for one day”. It worked perfectly well.

Today someone asked me if I was really working on a PSP.
