People give Windows a lot of flak for this, but at least it usually does turn off after finishing its updates.
MacOS is the one that will just literally ignore the fact that you told it to shut down. Or it takes forever to tell you that a program has unsaved changes. At least Windows will tell you that right away, so that you see the "something is preventing shutdown" message before you walk away from the computer. Your Mac will wait 15 minutes, and then be like, "by the way, the browser doesn't want to close."
Nice! I still haven't, but today was my first pangram. And apparently you get extra points for getting the pangram as your first word. It says "frik" because I was one letter away from getting down to just the one other letter remaining.
I think Smush is my current favorite word game. I like that there's a strategy to waiting for a better multiplier, but some risk to not putting a good word down right away, since you might run out of letters to make that word later.

Thank you for everything that you've done! This is an incredibly featureful and mature application, I had assumed it must be more than three years old.
During the height of the crypto boom, I couldn't have afforded my own gaming PC that I built ~4 years earlier. Hardware prices have been such madness lately.
Some kind of "empathy score." Not sure what the formula would be, but it would reflect how readily they feel empathy for another person, and how many other people they can care about.
A narcissist would have a 0 -- they can only care about themself. Someone with very limited empathy would have a small number -- say, they can only care about their immediate family, and they need to really get to know someone before they care about that person. People who naturally care about others, even if they don't know the other person, would have high numbers.
This number would sometimes just flat out tell you that certain people should be avoided, or certain conversations are pointless with that person. Or if you do need to try to convince them of something, the number may show you how to frame the conversation. E.g., show how it's in their own interest if they have a low number.
Alexander Brandon is probably my most listened to artist. I've listened to the Unreal Tournament soundtrack, in full, about once every 1-2 weeks at work, for almost 8 years now.
He's alive because he manipulated Lindsay Graham into taking his place in hell, for now, using some kind of underworld parliamentarian loophole that he learned when he clerked for Satan.
I don't think this counts as a leopard-face moment. That would imply that Android users (or app developers) were somehow hoping that Google would only screw over non-Android users. No one was thinking that; everyone knew that Google was screwing you the hardest if you were using an Android phone. They were just hoping that Google wouldn't go this far and completely lock down the platform.
Only Murders in the Building features the HOA. It's a TV show, and also I haven't finished it yet, so it doesn't quite fit your question. But it's also a good show.
A grail for me, if I ever find a copy for less than like $80.
First clean plate, and a new high score for me!
::: spoiler spoiler for the pangram
It took me a while to see "chalkboard," but once I did, I noticed that you could also do "blackboard." That racked up quite a few points.

Interesting! I hadn't heard of that one, thanks.

hell yeah. How old is it? (The Zune, not the kid.)
Hubzilla is a piece of the fediverse that I have not explored enough. This looks super cool.
Putting sour cream and tartar sauce on there is absolute ragebait. And I have been caught by it. 😤
Butter is top tier. Also, cream cheese.

I sure have! :D
Well done, this got me.
That is gorgeous! Do you have cold winters where you live? Seems like it would be great for that, in addition to hot days in the summer.
Congratulations on the bookstore! That's exciting!
