I'll tell you that it's super nice to be able to watch things with other people in the car while you are all waiting on the car to charge.
Also, you don't have to hold a phone and the screen is better.

Yes, the early days when games where literally 10 bucks an hour to play.
I miss you, Cyberstrike and Airwarrior.
I'm not giving up mobile deposit.
Leave my house? Duck that.
I'm excited for it for the same reasons.
I don't have skill in art or coding.
But AI platforms have let me produce things that work for my personal needs that would be beyond my abilities before starting the project.
Apparently I've been listening to the new Gunship album too much, said I was in the top 1% of Gunship listeners.
I think the feature is cool and I'm looking forward to it personally.
Maybe they should have made it opt in, but social features like this on other platforms like discord and stream aren't, so .. eh.
It's just so hard to see where we transition from here.
We went from a resource economy to a manufacturing economy to a service economy... And now many services are being automated. So what's next?
I'm in favor of the automation but recognize it's going to cause pain in the near future.
I've seen people tout a 'creative based economy', but to be honest LLMs and GANs seen poised to grab that sector before anyone in service can transition to it.
You'd hope all of this would mean an easier life, but so long as capitalism is the name of the game there is zero incentive to spread the benefits among all.
I've gone to playing Project 1999, an OG EverQuest emulator server.
It's only up to velious and it's as close to how the game was back then as you can get.
I don't recommend it to people who never played EQ back in the day - games have changed far too much for this ancient game to be fun for most people who don't have nostalgia for that era of gaming.
But sounds like you might, so I thought I'd suggest it to you.
I'll tell you, I have my setup to the point where I go to one website, subscribe to a show, and episodes of that show appear to watch on my TV same day they are released.
I also set myself up to get email alerts telling me what new episodes I have to watch when they are done being downloaded.
... Setting all that up took me awhile and will take tech skills. But now that it's set up, it's zero touch aside from adding new shows.
Plus, I never have to worry about trying to find where to stream at it and even if my Internet goes out I can still watch my shows
alot of ppl on fedi are privacy-oriented and focused
I'm aware. I'm just reminding you that most outside the fediverse aren't.
Not everyone cares so much about that.
Someone knowing things about me in general is not a big deal.
It's well documented that the leadership of both sides had some difficulty getting their soldiers to go back to fighting after the truce.
The average soldier did not want to fight. Leadership had to threaten charges of desertions and treason to get them back to fighting.
