Yeah for sure, they make it way easier to press the shoulder buttons when you've got them sideways.

Imagine putting Alpha Male in your profile

It has also trialled what it called “love bombing” in some of its stores - being extra attentive to customers, including asking if help is needed at self-checkouts, to act as a potential deterrent.

Wow. Now when someone asks if I need help at a self-checkout I'll wonder if they think I'm trying to steal something!

Do Agatha Christie's series need to be read in any particular order, or are they standalone? I was tempted by And Then There Were None

Many thanks for this list! Some great looking books in there, and I do enjoy the sound of unique sci-fi/fantasy settings

Thanks for these suggestions - I hadn't heard of the author. The first one you mentioned has a particularly interesting setting, on an East India ship!

It's attracted to other male Steam Decks :)

Wow great collection! Do you have a favourite console and/or game?

Great info! I did wonder if something like that would be possible. Will look into this, thanks

But if the door is coming at you fast, isn't the 'room' too?

Gotta be B, right? But then if the victims had no momentum... ah this hurts my brain

I've heard they're good for chess too

Thanks for the idea! I'll look into this. Could be useful from a more generic perspective (i.e. just some kind of bluetooth vibration device that could attach to the Deck rather than a sex toy).

Sex toy genuinely would be great though lmao

*buttlog?

Usually would it be a case of game devs integrating buttplug.io support?

This may actually be the perfect solution! Internal vibration. Imagine playing Forza and feeling your insides jiggle as you accelerate through a corner. Possibly the closest thing to actually driving a car.

Very true! A really interesting world/backdrop to set a film in. I'm optimistic

I played TP not that long ago (I had it on Wii, but this was my first time actually finishing it). I agree that it's quite an easy game, but it was enjoyable throughout. The items were nicely varied and most of the dungeon puzzles were clever. The weirdness of the world reminded me a lot of Ocarina of Time. I've actually never played Majora's Mask so I should give that a go sometime! If you're on Steam Deck, I've heard a good option is patching the N64 version with HD textures (which may require a Windows system initially).

I've read the Neal Stephenson books you mentioned and loved them but I wonder if they're really dystopian? Injustice is certainly a big part of those worlds but I don't find them as bleak and hopeless as some other truly dystopian novels I've read. He seems to explore how new technologies could completely change our societies, but they always feel like worlds that are on the cusp of something new (rather than allowing technology to back themselves into a corner with no hope of improvement).

Interesting! There isn't much of a story to Slime Rancher, so I could see a standalone film, free to do its own thing and set it that universe being fun.
