  Just finished prototype 1 and 2 for the first time since I was a kid. Very fun and definitely recommend both, but you could probably get away with just 2.

  I should not have been playing a game that violent as a kid lol

  The message, especially in the second one, is actually pretty positive. And the dark humour even in mission objectives is awesome. My favourite example being that you find out some of the scientists you have in a helicopter are trying to do eugenics, so your objective is to fly them as high as possible and jump out to “fuck over the scientists”. Lol

  I’ve had a PS5. Gave it away. I still have an Xbox. I don’t even know if its plugged in. The steam deck got me back into gaming in a way that I haven’t been in years. I feel like a kid again with the amazement of a piece of technology that can entertain me the way the steam deck can. I even bought a dbrand skin for it just because I love it so much. I’m playing prototype 2 and my fiancee is playing baldurs gate. When we have money we want to buy another one so we don’t have to share lol

  In September, I was using reddit, had an iPhone, etc. I was generally aware of digital privacy, probably moreso than the average person, but by no means was I knowledgeable.

  I was running a beta on my iPhone at the time, for context. I had a short conversation with my roommate while my phone was in my pocket. I took it out to text my partner and pressed the dictation button. My phone proceeded to type out the majority of the conversation I had had maybe five minutes earlier with my roommate. Literally ruined my ignorance is bliss and now I have a Pixel with grapheneos and use almost exclusively open source software with a major focus on privacy. Obviously this is an anecdote from some idiot online and I can’t verify what I’m saying at all, but the experience definitely shook me.
