It’s horrifying to me that any of these fucking games are running outside userspace. Is anti cheat the only reason why that is necessary? Why is it necessary for anti cheat?

Okay, but “never have I ever understood why X” is just turning “never have I ever” into a platform for random opinions like what happened to the Kermit sipping tea meme.

Whoah, managing that in Florida is no joke! At least you have access to seafood.

I like seeing a group evolve and form good friendships. I also like sci fi and weirdness.

You better get on that Scavengers Reign train. There’s only one season right now, but it rules, especially from a “weirdness” perspective, and there’s not going to be more unless it gets some more attention.

If you have access to Disney+ or piracy, watching a couple of (they’re eight minutes long) episodes of the show Bluey would probably charm your butt off and also give you a lot to go on for fun ways to engage with kids.

It’s all about being real and in the moment, and giving them ways to experience novelty. A parenting book my partner was reading reminded her that all you need to do to engage a (toddler, but the point stands) child’s interest is to turn the laundry basket upside down. Everything that’s dull to you is new to them (and everything that’s exciting to you, they’re often not ready for yet).

You don’t need admin to plug your computer into the AV do you? I assumed it was OP’s computer.

This is the way.

I would love to have a Steam Machine. I love my Steam Deck. However… the nature of Steam games, so far, even on the Deck, is that you need to bop “ok” every once in a while, or even enter a username or something for some unwashed-ass game, and that’s a lot harder on a form factor that doesn’t have a touchscreen…
