Whilst I suppose this has been known anecdotally by the gaming community for a long time, it's good to see more academic research reinforce it. Hopefully it leads to better treatment options for the addicted.

I'm sometimes still surprised about people's outdated views on (video) games as a hobby, even among younger generations.

Might hop on with a few friends in a few days, I'm already excited to see the current state of the game!

 

As someone who last tried No Man's Sky out about 5 years ago, it looks like it's time to give it another shot.

We would have solar panels installed beforehand, so that's fair, does a little for lessening my guilt.

We will likely have AC installed at home before the next summer.

I don't like it, particularly because of the impact on climate and energy consumption, but with the prolonged heat nowadays, it's become nigh impossible to keep our home comfortable throughout most of the summer. :(

A new game from Yacht Club?! Count me in, this looks amazing!

It might be a bit naive, but here's to hoping that it's just a stepping stone for a proper alternative search engine.

While I'm glad to see Qwant and Ecosia's progress, I have to say a search index "designed specifically for LLMs and generative AI agents" was not quite what I was hoping for when I saw this pop up.
