You’re right, while our efforts target different groups, the survey was particularly focused on vision.
I’m really glad it’s working for you!
I’m not sure what you mean about OP color. It’s the same blue as links, no?
I’ve been using the RBlind-Dark theme for internal testing for a few weeks and I’m super happy with it. It’s addressed a number of issues we had back in 2023 and just looks and feels nice. Beautiful design doesn’t have to be inaccessible!
The roasters nearest to me were all out by the time I watched the announcement video, so I won’t be joining in. I think it’s a neat idea though, and I hope everybody has a great time.
I really enjoy Mini Metro. I’ve been addicted to Dots for years, it’s the very best digital fidget.
I paid for a Need for Speed game some 8 years ago and that was pretty OK for a few hours.
A Dark Room is also really good.
That’s about it, to be honest. If you want to pick up a controller, there’s a decent library of older PC or console games that run on phones now - emulators are also an option.
Yeah, the vehicles and battlefield chaos are really well executed. It feels genuinely grandiose today, so it must have been mind blowing at the time. I can also tell the campaign is meant to teach you how to play multiplayer, which other games would go on to do in the years to come.
There’s a lot of Battlefield 3 in there. Or the other way around, more appropriately.
I played a bit of Infinite coop - that game is super faithful, by way - and that was a lot of fun. Playing this in 2001 with a friend must have been fantastic fun.
Incredible, I’m sure. Especially for people who weren’t playing on PC before - it generally stands up to Half-Life in a lot of ways, including the enemy movement and maybe even AI, but the cutscenes have that more traditional cinematic look. I love the constant immersion of Half-Life, but this feels like watching an awesome sci-fi action movie, like Aliens. There’s enough survival horror and cosmic horror vibes as well to keep you going.

Halo: Combat Evolved. I get what all the hype was about. This is a good game!
Interesting, thanks for the tips. I’ll try to get something halfway decent, if for nothing else than to be able to say “you’ve tried it, now go get some actually good coffee.”
Yeah, you make a good point about familiarity. Even if it’s not the optimal technique, I’m likely to execute it better than a technique I don’t know.
My guess is it’ll be fine, maybe a little funky. My friend has tried my Ethiopian espresso and won’t be blown away for no reason - not the way I expect a lot of people who go from Nespresso to this stuff would be.
I work from home, most days, so I was doing that while staring at the same monitor and typing on the same keyboard.
After catching myself on the way to burning out, I was advised to stop working on time and go work out or take a walk - something physical to mentally change modes.
I agree with all the advice here to get a different hobby or touch grass.
