Very true. However in the less urban areas there is often well water which varies by jurisdiction from drinkable to toxic (even flammable!) Also some places in the US have water that is unsafe to use even if it was boiled. Usually water is handled on the local level and can be different depending on the local government’s ability, wisdom, and funding.

I doubt they’d trust another company with a “mainline” Zelda game. The IP is too valuable to them. I could see more Hyrule Warriors type games but I reckon Nintendo will keep most of their main development in house, and I’m not sure they want to make that kind of game anymore from what they say, so I wouldn’t hold your breath. One thing I wonder about is what’s next? They made two great open world games now and maybe they’ll move on from that formula too. But to what? Who knows.

There’s a few classic Star Wars games that don’t get talked about as much that are great. Galactic battlegrounds is an age of empire 2 clone with Star Wars skins and stories. I played the crap out of this one over the years. Fun campaigns and tons of fan made missions out 5err too. But a ton of the old Star Wars games are fun if you are a fan. Freelancer is a PC game that I don’t think you can even buy any more which was a fun space sim from back in the day and holds up somewhat. Star Trek also had a bunch of interesting games in the early aughts worth checking out if you’re so inclined.

Yeah this is all over. Here's another one about Io9 publishing an AI article with tons of mistakes and no chance to even edit it. Not sure who thought it would be a good idea. AI can be very hit or miss on first go and needs editing before use at the very least.

I use BookFusion. It’s a paid service but syncs the library and progress across platforms. Integrated with Calibre too, which I saw you mentioned you use in a different comment. Works great for me, but good luck finding something that works for you.

BookFusion is cool. It also has a calibre plugin so you can upload directly to it if you use Calibre. No idea how they are privacy wise but the sync is perfect across multiple devices and systems. It is not open source but it does what you want and has paid levels. Here’s the link: https://www.bookfusion.com/

Oh,I think you’re right. They have their Calibre plug-in which is open source I think but I think in my head I conflated that with the whole app. My bad.

That was my first thought too. “They’re already rioting in the streets and their civil rights are even more violate-able. This will sure calm stuff down.”

I’ve always loved Galactic Battlegrounds because RTS are fun. Rebellion is another great one that another commenter mentioned. I was also a fan of Jedi Knight and Jedi Academy and replaced them on switch a year or two back.

They were doing the same shady stuff well before we were happily giving all our data to social media companies. At least they had to work for it back in the day. Now they can be the South Park video gamer guy meme and just know everything about us from our online life without the need for like stalking or breaking in and bugging the place.
