I'd like to think Firaxis and Sid Meier still hold water for Civilization at least, but I do get your point. Most of the games I go back to now and enjoy are nowhere near the ballpark of "AAA".

Dang. This is almost my list as well, and the ones that are different I can totally see why they could be on someone else's list. I like your taste in games.

I know it pales in comparison to most others here, but that Star Wars theory about Jar Jar Binks being the ultimate Sith mastermind instantly popped into my head.

Whatever's the current "big" issue in showbiz. I really couldn't care less that ABC was photographed with DEF in GHI, possibly hinting a relationship collapse with JKL, or whatever it was that people are harping about with other people's lives.

I get quite a bit of flak from my colleagues for paying for search, but I kid you not, I don't regret splurging on a Kagi subscription at all. It's personally less stressful for me, having to wade through less cruft, and I think I even work significantly faster because of how I use it.

It's sad when you think about it. Search was such a good experience in the past.

Steam streaming is pretty cool too, I use it very often.

The first time I tried a sausage sizzle from Bunnings, I was a bit disappointed. Maybe it's because all my mates have been recommending giving it a try and hyping it up and whatnot, and I was really looking forward to it when I finally got around to it, but I didn't really find it all that after the fact.

I mean, it's not bad. It's a couple of bucks, it's a great sausage on white bread, I'd get it again no worries. I kinda just expected more I guess.

Not the OP, but if youve got your own domain, you can register it with Proton so that you can create email addresses on it that route to your Proton inbox.

How it'll work is:

  • Proton will ask you to verify you own the domain (by adding a few TXT records on it)
  • then Proton will give you some MX records you can add to your domain so that mail routes to Proton using your domain.

Had an appointment for an NBN tech visit yesterday morning, cause the internet in the place we moved into was shot. Mate came in at 830 in the morning.

He quickly determined it wasn't our box that's the problem, but a faulty thingamajig on the street post, but he didn't have the right parts on him. He had to leave, but he promised he'd get it sorted within the day. We were prepared to wait it out until the Monday, but mate came back on at almost 7pm on a Friday, just to get it sorted like he said, and sorted it he did.

Just thought that was so nice of him, and I really appreciate it. Gave him a drink early on, but wish I gave him more of it, and hopefully he doesn't mind all his work went into a night's worth of very bad Dota.
