Simple Solitaire Collection has lots of different solitaire variants. No riddles, but you do have to think a lot. “Napoleon’s Tomb” and “Simple Simon” are two interesting variants I learned about from this game. (Simple Simon has simple rules but can be incredibly hard.)

Free, no ads, no dark patterns.

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is a really good, well polished, roguelike. It may be on the fringes of your request, it’s not really a “puzzle” game, but you do need to think a lot to weigh your options constantly.

Free, no ads, no dark patterns.

2048 will burn at least an hour. It’s free, there are tons of clones.

This is because the gifts must be tossed in the hole. The hole that runs the company. Because the company is run by a hole.

Once the hole is filled the company dies and you are free.

close enough.

Kleenex, tissue. Band aid, bandage. Xerox, copy. IPad, tablet (some people call their android tablets iPads) Plucker, flosser.

It’s not really that bad. Some are even shorter:

Google, search. Invisalign, retainer.

Some are iffy:

Sharpie, permanent marker. (You could just say marker, depending on if you have any other markers in the house to disambiguate from.)

And some are definitely shorter as brand names:

Q-tip, cotton swab Velcro, hook and loop Sawzall, reciprocating saw

(And if there was a shorter name for “oscillating multi tool” I would be so happy.)

I can’t think of any others.

It’s all terminology and labels.

Do you belong to a theology? No? Then you’re an atheist. But that label has a stigma, so some opt for a different label.

Are you gnostic? No? Then you’re agnostic. No one talks about gnosticism out of religeon or philosophy, so they know what you mean. But the subjects of gnosticism and theism are two different things.

But it also feels oversimplified when I put it that way, since these things a less black and white and fall more on a spectrum.

That said, do you play golf? No? Then you may also be an a-golfer, an a-tee-ist.

Which label you chose may be based on how much the stigma bothers you or how much of a troll you are.

Thank you for introducing me to Propaghandi, this band ROCKS.

Hey, it’s the dudes from Yoshi’s island!

Treasure planet??

…huh?

Walking around the neighborhood.

It’s good exercise, you can meet your neighbors, and sometimes you can pick up something someone is throwing away that’s in good condition.

Directions unclear, I tried snapping with my pinky (instead of with my middle finger) for far too long before I realized you meant “snap like normal except put your pinky up.”

Thank you for the informative response. I knew rust was a programming language, but didn’t know it’s significance.

I heard about it recently, I think someone said some of the devs from the earlier battlefield games made it. Or were part of the team or something

Thank you for the informative and detailed response!

“Accidentally formatted that drive”

Someone is playing with fire.

How it’s the community? I expect a good bit of toxicity with any online but if it’s not flooded with kids like fortnite I’d assume it’s not too bad.

And what about the mtx? Is it aggressive or annoying?

That’s why my machine defaults to Linux and if I want windows I have to hold f11 on boot to load my motherboard’s boot selector and select my windows drive.

It’s not fancy like GRUB or anything, but I don’t interact with it much and it gets the job done.

What if you had OBS create a “camera” of your screen, and then use that through video chat?
