A good response. Civlised and to-the-point.

Beep boop. Hello fellow human. I too enjoy consuming food products and watching the sports ball.

I would love to have the ability to know for any journey, no matter how complex, what time I need to leave to arrive on time.

Does this mean we can expect a glut of cheap 3rd party controllers on the market that can be used for PC gaming?

You could also use one of those water pick things that use a pressurised water jet to clean between your teeth. After I started using one regularly my dentist even remarked on how much better my gums were looking.

I live in a country where manual transmission is the default. I drive a manual and I'm fine with it. This idea of fake manual transmission is bizarre to me. Who is it for? Car enthusiasts will know it's fake and avoid it and surely your average driver will not care and would actually appreciate the simplicity of automatic transmission.

A great book but I don't know if I'd recommend it as a "get into reading" book.

Of games that I've ONLY played on the SteamDeck, I think Dead Cells is probably my favourite.

Exactly. I'd be reluctant to try any of the other games that OP names because I "don't have the time" and yet I have 200+ hours in DRG.

Return of the Obra Dinn and The Outer Wilds both for sure. Both have common themes of solving an over-arching puzzle by exploration and examination of an environment.

GoT simulator - Crusader Kings but somehow with even more incest and also dragons.

Slay the Sire - Instigate a medieval peasant revolt and establish a commune.

Just hopping on this post to say that Steam actually did a really nice Top 100 Steam Deck games for their Summer Sale.

I got Hades and Dead Cells in the sale.

I think of kbin as 'Kabin' so something like 'Kabby the log cabin' would be what I'd design if I had any artistic skill

Also in the truck driving bucket - Snowrunner. The focus is on off road trucking, mud and snow physics, with a winch that you can use to unstick yourself.

Can I ask what tools people are using to mass edit their Reddit comments?

Not a new thing in China. I've seen similar robots on patrol outside major railway stations back in 2019. Those ones seemed to be equipped with facial recognition and tasked with basically detecting people who are loitering and telling them to move on.

Rock and Stone in the heart!

Yes! For some reason, she's way less annoying than the Brit or American options.

I switched my Alexa to Australian female voice as I found it less annoying than the default UK female one.

I have plans to get online later with 3 friends and play the heck out of the new update

Totally agree.

There was a time when I would avoid Steam versions of games as much as I could because of the bad interface and frequent crashes, but they continued to improve the platform year after year until it became a model of what a games platform should be.

I'd still slightly prefer to buy on GoG due to it being DRM free but I recently got a Steam Deck so the ease of use begins to tip the equation in favour of Steam again.

There's no reason to do that with an electric motor (as far as I know). It would only reduce the efficiency. Maybe it's something that the car enthusiasts could get on board with though?

I've had a curious eye on the game for a while but the need for the Ubisoft launcher put me off. How is it on Steam? Steam Deck compatibility would be a big bonus for me too.

Yes! Planning to play tonight. Rock and Stone!

Similar to some countries banning games that depict skulls or blood, these countries have banned games that depict gambling. This is different from banning games that contain loot boxes or actual gambling.
