I just never set mine up so when you call me and I predicably don't answer, it just says "This user has a mailbox that has not been set up yet. Please try your call again later." What I'd rather it say is "Hang up and text me like a normal person. If you can't text me, I don't want to hear from you anyway."

My vote was for Godot but this one is a very close second. I even have it installed on my mobile Firefox instance.

Posting before reading because activity. Godot Engine, hands down. I used Unity for years and years and now that Godot 4.x is out, I'll probably never use Unity again. Unless it's for a job or something like that. All personal projects tho... I could probably make a game in Godot while waiting for Unity to start up.

The way it works in this house, the dishwasher is always full of clean dishes.

We door dash for extra money. If not for tips, it wouldn't be worth it. They do offer an hourly rate if you choose to take it vs being paid per order but I'm not sure how that all works, we always take the per order pay.

The federal minimum wage for tipped workers is $2.13/hr. Basically nothing. It wouldn't cover your gas cost to go to work in most cases.

Of course no one said anything. That would be rude. But not tipping your server is very much an asshole move, foreign or not. Those service industry workers rely on the tips because their wages are basically nothing. I agree that they should be paid a fair wage but that's just not how it works here in the US.

I've been trying to focus on ones that have quests, so I have a clear path to follow. But it seems like, if there's quests, there a bajillion quests which is also overwhelming. I've made some custom modpacks and those suffer even worse because I have no clear goals. After you've put a few thousand hours in a game, it gets hard to define any achievable goals that you've not done yet.

I have this with big Minecraft modpacks. Sometimes I just get overwhelmed with all the stuff to do, and I get none of it done. I wonder if it's related to ADHD or autism. I've not been diagnosed with either because I avoid doctors like the plague but when you check literally every box for a disease... Welp.

It boggles the mind that the people being most judgemental about gaming are the self same people who sit for hours every night watching garbage shows on Netflix, and they see 0 comparison between that and gaming for hours.
