I tried jellyfin but it isn’t even close to as a good as plex

In response to your spoiler:

I specifically didn’t like that scene because it’s a massive departure from the lore of all the other films. If they could just do that, why haven’t both sides been doing that all the time? Is it supposed to be that this group is the first group to try this, with the tech that has been around for at least a few centuries? If they had all died in the process I’d be more ok with that, although that also seems like a departure from how hyperspace works in the other films.

I’d put it at like 2 or 3 lines of text not counting keywords

The treaty isn’t the technology, it’s the result of people much better informed on the topic considering the scenario you are asking about.

The technology is the hypothetical anti-ballistic missiles.

I’ve seen similar toys described as an “escape room in a box”

Tbh I kinda don’t mind the podcaster ads when they put their own spin on it and are cute about it

Neither have I really. It’s the last one I used, which was like 5 years ago.

These days I’m mostly using docker containers but all my docker containers as well as my hosts are flavors of Linux so YMMV.

So that you can run the windows exclusive software in a virtual machine.

Time to download Virtualbox

Possibly. I haven’t played in a while but it was quite good when I did play.

If you wanna compare it to hiking, it’s like hiking a long distance in the wilderness alone without bringing any water or food or map or compass or a phone or anything besides some shorts and flip flops.

Even for people who are experienced in the wilderness, there’s a reason why you are supposed to take basic emergency supplies with you (and really the most important emergency supply being a buddy).

See: that guy who famously had to cut his own arm off. Also he’s “one of the lucky ones”. Experienced people die in the wilderness every year, just like experienced free climbers die.

considers things moving at very close to the speed of light uses Newtonian mechanics

It’s an interesting idea but this is a pretty massive oversight.

“It’s fine if it’s in a bag and off or silent” has been cell phone policy in my experience (decades ago).

The only announced Nintendo games that are Switch 2 exclusive are Mario Kart, Kirby Air Ride sequel, and the new Donkey Kong

I got nitro for higher audio quality so I could stream background music while running a DnD campaign over discord.

It also increases your streaming resolution and file upload size limit which is quite useful.

It also lets you use emojis from any server in any other server, which isn’t “useful” but is fun and I do it all the time.

For these 3 things I think it’s worth it. It’s worth noting I have a grandfathered Nitro plan that is more features than “Nitro Basic” but less features than the next tier at a cost that’s in between.

The real enshitification I’m worried about is the gradually increasing prevalence of ads in increasingly prominent places.

I wouldn’t keep my stormtrooper bust in my incredibly thematic medieval styled DnD room.

This summarizes Severance

Some particular reasons why I’d recommend Minecraft for this:

• it’s very easy to get started, but there’s a lot of depth if you get into it
• its pretty slow-paced
• its a multiplayer game where someone of a much higher skill level and someone of a much lower skill level can play together without the noob player feeling that they are holding the advanced player back
• if you set the difficulty to peaceful it’s hard to die, and it’s impossible to fully “lose”. You can also turn on keepinventory.
• it’s a very open-ended game where you can come up with your own goals, which makes it something that everybody can find fun in their own way
• if they do get into it, it’s a good segue into a wide variety of other games. Just figure out what part of Minecraft they enjoy. You can also extend Minecraft by playing with mods.
