How's the job hunt going?

All of these games would be terrible on phones. They're designed with controllers or keyboards in mind. I can't imagine trying to do a Resident Evil boss fight with touch controls.

IIRC they openly stated in an interview that iMessage is one of people's greatest incentives to stick to the Apple ecosystem, and they have no plans of shooting themselves in the foot by releasing it on android.

Interesting that the Journal app won't be ready at launch. Doesn't seem like that much of a groundbreaking software.

Fantastic blend. I really need to develop the foresight to brine my chicken days in advance

The quality has definitely gotten worse with every iPhone generation. I had an official leather case on my 12 and the layer of leather began peeling off of the plastic within a few months.

Nowadays I just use a rubber spigen case and I'm very happy with it.

You will appreciate the story of 2 a lot more if you have played 1. They closely tie together.

Also, RDR1 is a spectacular game. 2 is better and worse in various ways. 1 is more video-gamey; 2 is more simulation.

That said, if you're not all that interested in 1, 2 is just fine on its own!

I completely agree with this. I've found myself drifting away from wanting cutting-edge, high-end stuff and towards more reliable tech. I've started taking notes on real paper instead of ipad, and I've been wearing my cheap Casio watch instead of my Apple Watch. I feel like in some ways I've hit a wall where my inner humanity longs for real, tangible things rather than more digitization.

I read a book called Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents. My mom is similar, and it gave me a lot of insight into why she behaves the way she does, and how I may have developed unhealthy coping mechanisms as a result. Highly recommend.

My friend and I bought trucks around the same time. Mine is a simple tradesman Ram, no bells and whistles, primarily for moving and hauling stuff that can't fit in my wife's sedan.

I'm a pretty passive driver. Live and let live, y'know?

My friend had a similar personality when he first got his Tundra (of course with all the extras he can afford). Then he goes and spends $10,000 on a lift, winch, and floodlights. Now he's like a different person. He drives super aggressively, whipping round corners, weaving through traffic going 20mph over on the highway. He was driving me through some quiet neighborhood the other day and nearly mowed over a cyclist. I asked him what the hell he was doing and he shrugged and said "if she's gonna ride a bike in the street, she's gotta look out for trucks. Not my fault if she doesn't see me"

TL;DR - truck drivers are fine, a truck is a tool like any other vehicle. Lifting your truck turns you into a redneck scumbag overnight though apparently.

I forgot I wasn't using Apollo haha. Super solid Reddit replacement.
