I used a tutorial book to help me create a python text game, then I rewrote it and have been casually adding things. I sort of want to re-write it again in Java to see how it compares, I'm more comfortable with java so I'm hoping I could focus more on system design. I'm noticing that the more I add to the base game the more spread out my solutions become, so addressing that is the main interest I have with it.

A new project I'm working on is a simple web scraper. I liked building a lexer/parser in the text game and I think having my own web scraper would be useful.

I'm still learning so I aim for projects I can 'finish' in 2-4 weeks.

Oh and a windows notepad that looks like the windows notepad except more customizable. I like the idea of building utilities.

Might be an issue if they use vim?

I made the argument that it's expensive but it was more based on the idea that I can get a cheapo used console with a few games and that'll do me for a whole generation. That and I think that PC gaming has a deeper void to get sucked into (mainly keyboards and monitors)

But now a couple weeks later and I realize that I really enjoy my crappy business desktop PC and I could see building a PC in the future.

They each have their advantages. When I go to a friends house we play console. At home I'd rather play PC, if I had the choice.

Ya I think that's a common sentiment when looking at the out-group but I don't think it says all that much about me.

It's more that the US is all about personal liberty and personal freedoms. Other places that you're referring to have a charter of rights, which still allow for personal freedoms but are also constructed to protect minorities or at risk groups, like Jewish people.

That said the Bill of Rights that the Americans produced was first of it's kind and amazing. Personally I just don't think they got it quite right and charter of rights take into account the personal liberties of all people and not just the dominant majority.
