I'm a big fan of open world for immersion. Oblivion when it came out, GTA SA and 5, RDR2.
But something that surprised me about immersion was Cataclysm DDA (with good tile and sound packs). It takes a long time to get into the groove of the game as a first timer, but once you do, the emergent stories that come out of it are incredibly immersive.
As an anecdote about this, most countries in South America charge a 100% import tax on almost all electronic devices (laptops, phones, pc parts, cameras, etc). Not only the exchange rates already make these purchases almost impossible, they also have to pay double. The ripple effects on the future of a country where people don't have access to the tools they might need to develop themselves is tragic.
I was like that for almost 4 years, during and after the whole covid thing. I could engage with activities outside of my house (gym, sports, going out with friends), but inside was apathy.
Seems pretty clear to me that he doesn't have the courage to break up with you. I see that you're hurting. If you look at it through this lens, his behaviour will start to make sense to you.
All true, but more importantly in my opinion, that's the plant that survived. How many seeds and sprouts never became anything for that one to thrive.
It doesn't matter if it were being used for its intended purpose, parking like this is absolutely wrong.
Clever as heck.
In SA it's different!

Bullet hands down. Best handling of all the sports cars, and the most pleasant motor sound.

Ah I see that "Late Stage Capitalism" actually means "tankie" in this community.
This is the photo I use as an example when people complain about editing in photography. The diagonal shadow was famously added in post production:

Only thing that helped was ADHD medication.
Dune is incredibly unique. Scifi without computers and genetic magic. All politics. The books are outstanding.
Caves of Qud was my first contact with post post-apocalypse. Can't even begin to convey how strange and magical everything feels in that universe.
A lot more than that, especially the UX part.
Please Proton team port over this UI to drive.

The rallies, with celebrities and stuff. Bizarre.
Gorgeous, well done.
I've blocked the instance quite a while ago. In the beginning I was just blocking communities, but the users spill everywhere unless you go nuclear.
State actors could be interested in doing that. Same with the internet archive attacks.
