I was an early adapter and evangelist for "Apple TV" hardware and content and spent a small fortune thinking that was the future, and its unsettling now when I log onto the app to watch my content and I'm greeted with endless "come back to Apple TV" -its just weird

Funny how quick the shift is from cool uncle to substitute parent when they’re both away. Today I caught myself asking about parental controls on a game I’ve never heard of, looking up parent notes on IMDb, and monitoring YouTube channels based on the volume of laughter

How long do you give a game that a lot of people loved, but you yourself just aren’t clicking with?
5 hours?
10 hours?

Maybe a conspiracy theory? I think toasted cheezits are the real OG cheezits and the basic ones sold now are a different, cheaper formula.

I am such a huge fan of the speaker on the ps5 controller. Especially for the games that really know how to use it, it adds a level of immersion, and it’s a fun mechanic to emphasize surprises.
