The only thing I don’t love about it is the home screen being what looks like a pile of random apps, rather than a category tree or something. No biggie though.

Maybe it gets to be more scummy than you want, but how about notifications when you have no activity going? Like when you finish traveling or your inventory file up.

Just chiming in to say that I enjoy this game. I just noticed accidentally that I can search in the inventory/bank for things other than the names of items, like searching for “carpentry” returns all of the gear and tools that have carpentry bonuses! That’s a really big deal for me because the bank is so full I was keeping notes outside the game on which tools and gear I need for each skill.

Every time I travel, the phone numbers on taxis and restaurants and government signs are all whatsapp numbers. It’s incredibly pervasive.

Alyx was really fun. The first time a soldier reacted to my reaching out and touching them with my controller scared the bejeezus out of me!

- Comment on The Biden Administration has authorized the use of lethal force by the military against American citizens. 2 months ago:
First off this is only relevant to Defense Intelligence. 3.3 starts with “subject to paragraph 3.1” which describes the already-existing laws they are required to follow, such as Posse Comitatus. 3.3 also says a thing that might potentially be lethal requires SecDef approval.
All of this is further restricted by DOD policy 5210.56 which has what seem to me are extremely sensible rules regarding use of force during investigative / law enforcement duties. www.esd.whs.mil/Portals/54/…/521056p.PDF?ver=PIvI…
This document is replacing the previous policy from 1982 under president Reagan which is very similar but with less detail. www.esd.whs.mil/Portals/54/…/524001r.pdf
None of this looks unusual or inflammatory to me. Would you rather the DOD NOT have written policies limiting the use of force?
