[Star Trucker] (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2380050/Star_Trucker/) - omg. Bought it about a week ago, it's devoured my spare time.
Never tried a trucker sim before, usually more into base building, but daym--throw some scifi in there and I'm hooked! All the levers and switches work and are satisfying to pull. Blast through the short tutorial, put on some music, decompress, and just driiiive(/float).
Another Overwatch clone that looks generic, and was shut down after a month bc of low player count. The company agreed to give everyone refunds.
I was just looking at that game. Love the concept/title, anybody played this yet?
Exactly!
This is correct. A menorah is a general term for candelabra, a hanukkiah (pron. hah-nu-KEE-ah) is the specific type candelabra used for the holiday Hanukah ceremony. A hanukkiah has 8 lower candles and 1 upper candle (the shamas) for counting the 8 days of hanukah. That said, the terms are pretty interchangeable in modern times.
I had an uncle tell me this at hanukah decades ago and I thought it was a "fun fact." Every hanukkiah is a menorah, but not every menorah is a hanukkiah. Y'know?

I've cosplayed as a Ghostbuster and Dr Doom at conventions, it's a blast!
Putting the costumes together gave me a break from computer stuff, which was nice, and gave me an excuse to obsess about my interests.
Going out in public wearing a costume is always nerve-wracking. But the anxiety disappears as soon as you get close to the event. When I saw someone walking down the sidewalk, dressed as Megaman, I knew I was home.
Walking around in cosplay at a convention is like being a celebrity for 4 hours! Everyone knows who you are, and wants a picture with you. As a Ghostbuster, I get high fives from every other GB (there's always a bunch, young and old). As Dr. Doom, I had a 5yo girl (dressed as Minnie mouse) come up and tell me I'm her favorite. It was magical.
