So, we're just talking Steam - that means I can keep playing Fortnite either way. And my GOG library I suppose :>

From Steam I'd pick:

• Beat Saber, it's my sport
• Stellaris, so I can keep playing it with my SO

I generally suck at playing shooters with controllers but I was looking forward to try the Gyro controls for Fortnite.

You can as a workaround play Fortnite on the Deck via XBox Live in a browser. But there you don't have Gyro controls :(

Ich sag mal so, im Alltag ist mir jemand mit einem nerdigen T-Shirt ästhetisch ansprechender als jemand mit einem bügelglatten, geknöpften Hemd.
Ich dekoriere meine Wohnung aber auch mit Evolis und Gemälden von Indie-Künstlern. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, undso :)

Sadly, Fortnite doesn't run on Linux. EAC has Linux support in general but Epic doesn't it for Fortnite...
Was one of the first things I tried on my Steamdeck after installing HeroicLauncher. Would have been nice with the gyro.

I'm glad that works for you!

In my house we have roller shutters and they make you see nothing.
I've been at places without proper shutters.. tried sleep masks.. and they don't fully block light nor do they stay in place after even a single turn in bed. I ended up wrapping one of my black stockings around my head like a blind fold to actually sleep. >.<'

In my case, not just the next session, he would find out what the big mystery is and also all the secrets of the other characters.
But I don't think he would read any of it, he loves D&D too much to spoil himself :)

I've been told to leave them out in direct sunlight, haven't tried yet tho.

Community (It is far easier to “other” someone that you rarely or never meet in person. Not so easy if they are showing you pictures of their kids every day. “Sally just got a new particle accelerator! Isn’t she so lovely! This is her sinking Manhattan!”)

That's just super relative.
All my active friendships are 90% online and many of those people I very deeply care about. We meet every now and then, on vacations or for special occasions, and have a really amazing time. But we also have a really good time doing online activities together, keeping in touch more or less daily via messages and actively sharing our lives with each other.

On the other hand, othering is very much a thing that happens in person and feels a lot worse when it does happen in person. When every day you see 2-3 colleagues acting differently with you than amongs themselves or with others.
Working from home it is a lot easier to be selective with people you interact beyond the work stuff and avoid negative interactions, or interactions that drain your social batteries.

This one :)

This is what makes me sometimes unsure whether I should offer monetary help if I don't know the person intimately enough to judge this sufficiently.

Dunno if counts as a game really.. But about 4k hrs of VRChat - love the place and the friends I made there!

Developing in a Windows environment, I generally prefer Git Extensions.
It doesn't distract the eye with unneeded fancy and is very close to a command line git experience but still allows me a better visual sense of the repository and branches.
