  Nope, I live in the greater Seattle area (nearly the tesla capital of the world) and 8/10 times I’m blinded is a tesla in oncoming traffic.

  Rivians are also terrible, and most crossovers in the last 2-3 years have been increasingly bad.

  Driving a lowered sports car with no windshield tint has made driving at night a horrible process. I’m debating getting a low % window tint just to take the edge off of the headlights.

  Factorio

  The Factory Must Grow

  I’m almost 100 hours into my new space age save, and I’ve played nearly 1k hours since I bought it 5ish years ago. By far one of the most enjoyable games I’ve ever played and I highly recommend it to everyone who enjoys sandbox games

  You really don’t as long as you’re leaving the OS mostly standard. I’m a fairly high level power user of windows and I don’t think I use any of the 3 outside of development work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do Counterstrike and the other top 10 games on Steam NEVER change?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The games that sit at the top of the player counts are almost always multiplayer competitive games. In a lot of ways, there’s been nearly 0 movement in the space at all since covid. The same games are still right there at the top because no new massively multiplayer game has released to top them. FPS players play CoD, Apex, Fortnite and Pubg, Dota is massive in Asian countries, GTA V has a huge cult following (check out its twitch category).

  Satisfactory being top 10 is an outlier rather than the norm, being a single player game.

  I agree with the other commenter who said that players of these games consider themselves players of Apex/CoD/Pubg before they consider themselves overall gamers. That’s the case with me now, and I rarely launch anything outside of CoD or Apex as I have little to no interest in single player games.

  Generally these computer systems do access control, patient charting, intake management and most other critical functions, just like the rest of the world.

  Blood banks and controlled medicines are likely gated behind access controlled doors, and without either it could cause major impacts to the ability to save lives
