What are peoples thoughts on games requiring always online? How does it affect your enjoyment of those games?
  • Ironically I think GTAV did a pretty decent job of this - you can pause at any time during the single player, however I don't remember if it requires a connection to play single player mode.

    Imo if a game has a single player mode, being online for it should never be a requirement.

  • Coffee: Unbelached vs Bleached?
  • Both are fine, for most any good coffee, you'll have an equally good time if you give the unbleached filter a pre-rinse with hot water. But if you're venturing into Very Expensive Fancy Coffee (like $30 > per 100g), unbleached is probably the way to go to not have to worry about the flavour mixing.

  • What do you think about Apple and its ecosystem? (And a little conversation I had with a colleague)
  • From a practical perspective, even using open source takes some time and effort. I suspect many people gravitate towards apple is because they nail the basics and have a great out of the box experience.

    I'm against Apple in principle, but that doesn't mean I didnt get an M1 air when I had to upgrade a year or something ago - it was simply the best in the market for the price at the time.

    Also apple does not respect privacy nearly as much as they love to tout. Open source in general has a much better track record with privacy because of the people building the tools don't have as much profit incentive or government oversight.

    Edit: you'll never catch me dead with an iPhone or iPad though, Apple's mobile browsing experience has no ad block.
