Thanks for the info. You’ve given me some things I need to consider.

I see, thanks for the info

Can you clarify what you mean by a nonprofit domain? The places I would need to forward right now are a few gmail addresses, a domain I own, and a couple zoho addresses (though those also use a custom domain, not sure if that changes things).

That’s a great callout and a very important feature to me. Do you use anything other than gmail? To be honest the encryption isn’t the main selling point for me, I would just like to de-google where I can these days.

No actually, thanks for passing that along!

Someday this will be in a museum of cultural artifacts from this time period. What will the historians say about it?

I’ve never experienced a game that destroys time faster than this one, agreed. It also makes you sound completely unhinged to your partner when talking about what you just spent 6 hours doing.

+1 to this. And yes I’m extremely biased as a kid from Seattle.

This stuff is way over my head, so sorry if this is a dumb question: if it’s using only historical weather data, wouldn’t it be bad dealing with changing weather? Like climate change?

Hey, we bots are people, too!

Make a sanity roll

Well that’s the thing, doing that technique I mentioned takes no time whatsoever for me but DOES take time for them. It’s a nice petty little revenge.

Take this with a grain of salt, but there is one example of answering scam calls that was really effective for me. I had been getting spoofed calls that looked like they were coming from my bank. The first one I actually answered and got some real people on the phone (thankfully realized it was a scam before saying anything bad).

Anyway, these guys were calling me several times a day. I finally decided to start answering every call and just setting my phone down on the table and letting it run. The calls are probably automated, but when you answer it transfers it to a real person. By picking it up every time I was wasting that real person’s time. They stopped calling very fast after I started doing it and haven’t called since.

We all gotta start somewhere. No need to shame people for something many experience.

Does Shogun count? Its new and quite good

Well, I’m making one so i guess i can’t say they suck. I do feel like a lot of them aren’t great games, though. As in, they create a good vibe but they often lack solid gameplay. I think the writing in some I’ve played leans far too much into awkward and insecure characterizations too, and that gets tiring for me quickly. I’m trying to avoid those pitfalls in mine.

The call is coming from inside the building.

Just wanted to back you up on this. I’m also very outside the techy core of people on here and have been hoping for more diversity to join as well. There’s at least two of us!
