At least we'll get a delightfully stunted Jony Ive product film out of it.

Whereas on Reddit, it'd be used to justify a slippery slope. "We've already banned X and Y, so banning Z is just an extension of that."

We're deleting 'doors' as a feature. They just don't make sense.

I used to watch The Wan Show which I guess is more of an unfiltered look than the edited videos. But yeah, kinda.

There were numerous times when he'd openly criticise a colleague, or just like... undermine them? And then realise he was looking like an asshole and awkwardly laugh to try to pass it off as a joke.

It's very clear once you've watched a few episodes of The Wan Show that he's basically a massive asshole and a liability, surrounded by people desperately trying to rein him in.

Particularly more recently, I think? Like, I eventually stopped watching because the first 40 minutes of every episode was Linus trying to defend himself for the latest bullshit thing he'd done. 🙄

Friend created. Initials ("MJL") became word! Makes smile.

It's unsurprisingly one of those "can't say much about it without ruining it" games, but suffice to say:

It was very good and you should play it, but it was always going to be difficult for it to top the first one because you go into it having a fairly good idea of what's going on.

Also I just think this genre maybe works better with teenage characters than grown-ups, but that's just me. 😁

Currently in that "trying to decide what to play next" headspace... but for a bonus point, I think the thing I completed last was Oxenfree II.

Anyone else wishing they could buy the entire Steam Visual Novel Fest? 🥺

I picked up Who's Lila?, Coffee Talk, and Tyrion Cuthbert: Attorney of the Arcane (despite not really being able to afford to 😬) and wish-listed a bunch of other stuff.

There was (maybe still is) a cake shop in Southgate, North London. About a minute from my old flat.

The cakes in the window display rarely changed, if ever.

The guy running it looked like if you imagine the toughest prisoner at a prison, only wearing an apron.

About 50/50 whether the glass would be smashed whenever you walked past.

It was often "open" and had people coming in and out of it at 2-3am when I came back from nights out.

And there was a drive-by shooting right in that area while I lived there, that I always assumed was related. 😅

I used to go to stay at my dad's on school holidays... I forgot my DS Lite there one time, and the battery was still nearly full next time. 😬

I miss simpler tech.

 

...Didn't think I'd ever get that gold achievement haha.

 

Then I went straight back to sleep.

(As for why I'm posting it here, I guess the word "emigrate" just makes me think of the leathery people in strappy tops on A Place in the Sun. 🤷‍♂️)

 
 
 

Discuss, I guess. 🙃
