What boomer shooters would you recommend? I have recently been going through Half Life and the more modern Wolfenstein games. I started quake 1 today after finishing Blue Shift and am hungry for more in the genre.

Definitely in my goat list. It nails every aspect of what video games can be. I can’t wait to start anew.

I assume it was a joke in poor taste. A conservative would have said it was a deep state plant or that they had it coming for smoking weed or something.

I love when these games get discussed. I have a crt setup equally dedicated to melee and running through two towers and return of the king on ps2 with the buddies.

This is hilariously topical.

I am just getting into the series after having watch the film various times over the years. It really feels a bit, "religion of the week" right now and I am struggling with some of these episodes. I really like the characters but my goodness was that Emancipation episode awful. Would you encourage me to press through?

Discussions are generally civil and engaging. Content is obviously going to be sparse for a bit but find the communities of your interest and start posting!

Just to clarify are you saying that students should have access to their phones in classroom settings and should then feel engaged enough by the curriculum so as not to be on their phone or rather that while on campus they should maintain access, but be asked to keep them put away in class? At my school we had phones on us that we had to keep put away or it would be taken until after class. This seemed like a pretty basic and fair solution. If even a few kids are playing on their phone it is a pretty big distraction for everyone else.

Most of the focus on the article is in fact, on the external factors towards student behavior from social media use in general. I am not really sure what the answer is. My best friend is an ER nurse in a decent sized city and laments the amount of 12-14 year old girls that come in for both attempted and sadly often successful suicide attempts due to social media driven mental health crises.

As father to a young daughter I am constantly trying to better understand how to approach this topic as she ages.

I agree with your sentiment but how do you even go about this? From where I stand it feels like tech and social was sold out to the ad firms and tech overlords years ago. There is a measurable net negative impact to mental health among kids and adults from it. I’m all for allowing your kid to access the groups that make them feel valued and included, but at this junction phones and social in school is more harmful than helpful.

Game rules. Hopped on the discord and you have been super helpful as I figure out the game. Excited to push harder difficulties tomorrow.

Definitely makes sense. The care and detail to get the first one looking as good as it did on switch was wonderful. I know people were fond of the older tank controls but I could never get into the 3d games until the remaster. This is great news for me!

It is so sorely needed. I feel for my friends that went that route. Big W for Sega employees.
