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.

• Outer Wilds
• The Return of the Obra Dinn
• I'll bunch the Mass Effect trilogy together here
• Super Metroid
• The Last of Us
• Bioshock: Infinite
• Zelda: Ocarina of Time
• Oxygen not Included
• Fallout: NV
• Diablo 2

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.

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.

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.

• Protonmail
• Spotify
• Kagi search
• a handful of servers scattered in DigitalOcean, Hetzner, and AWS
• Sendgrid

Yeah I just wish the lemmy ONI community was a bit more active. I should be above 2K hours in now too, and I haven't won yet. My current run I'm trying to get up to 20 dupes while also trying my first attempt at something magma power.

I'm with you there. This league's been really great so far. I'm looking forward to seeing how others use the new gem variants.

I've been having difficulty joining private trackers as well, but mostly I've just been trying to apply to a few that I think I'd like to join. Don't quite understand why I don't get an invite though. I maintain a perma up seedbox, and wouldve thought that was mostly what's important for private trackers.

God of War: Ragnarok as well please
