I'll be on twitch.tv/breakthrought1d three times during the sale, chatting with featured devs while we play their games. First up (in 90 mins!) is Hexarchy with developer John White. Then we have Tetris Forever with @kohler.bsky.social on Sunday, and realMyst with @karlj.bsky.social on Tuesday.

No, not really. I don't have the hardware to take advantage of it either, but I'm hoping to get a few things this year to take advantage of it. The biggest improvement that I've seen was installing Cat6 and having a wired connection on most of our devices.

I think all their customers will eventually be switched to Quantum. I had the $65 1G fiber for several years and decided to pull the trigger on 2.5G for a little extra per month. Besides the speed, it's indistinguishable Unless you're forced to go to Quantum, I'd stick with the Centurylink deal.

Metaphor holds up some strikingly clear mirrors throughout. I'm glad that they made those attempts, even the ham-fisted ones.

I deleted mine a while ago. My problem is now my Meta accounts. I need to keep my VR stuff, but I think they're all tied together.

It was absolutely my favorite part of the reveal video! I can't wait!

I thought the same thing! I feel like that thing will snap off. I wonder why they aren't doing something more akin to Mag Safe...?

I forget if it was during Myst or Firmament, but I fell into a similar rut. We would play something online with friends and I'd be completely checked out. It felt like going through the motions and it wasn't fun. Here's what worked for me. I moved on early, I don't play games in my office, and P5R.

Oof... that sucks. I hope you recover quickly!

I didn’t really have the option to go into work, just that I would either work today or not work. Staying busy with work has helped me get through the day.

I ended up watching it this morning while working. I was a little anxious on how it was going to go. I think watching it this morning, or really listening to it, was more about understanding the details in context as I had heard most of the news already.

That’s interesting! Are you thinking more of a comic book kind of a thing…?

Thank you again for all the care and thoughtfulness you put into this piece! I couldn’t have asked for anything better!
