It's an esoteric device for sure. I've really enjoyed the titles that the console ships with, and it actually has some relatively big names who have developed games for it. Crankin's Time Adventure was developed by the makers of Katamari Damacy. The upcoming Playdate game "Mars After Midnight" is being developed by Lucas Pope, of "Papers, Please" and "Return of the Obra Dinn".

The lo-fi aspect is part of the appeal, but obviously not for everyone. That being said, Panic has struggled to keep up with the overwhelming demand, and itch.io is filled with thousands of titles developed for the Playdate, and it has a very active online community surrounding the device (outside of Lemmy).

I'm an American who visited Cuba (legally) a few years back. I paid for goods and was allowed to bring things back into the US. There were just monetary limits for goods on what you were allowed to bring back in. I believe products like rum, cigars, and coffee were limited to $100-200, but I wasn't asked to show any receipts or anything.

Ah yes, who can forget all the famous scenes in action movies where the "good guy" shoots 50 "human shield civilians" while attempting to get the "bad guy".

Zionism is cancer.

I played this for PC, it's a fun little short adventure but nothing too ambitious. It's less than 4 hours and ultimately is mostly fetch and delivery requests. The characters are cute and the environment is calming, so I still enjoyed the experience overall.

A few options that range from slightly spooky to pretty scary: Alan Wake, Oxenfree, Dead Space, Five Nights at Freddy's Security Breach, Night in the Woods, Inside, Limbo

I've been using Sync while waiting for Boost and I've come to really like the feature that allows you to upvote posts by slightly swiping left on the post. Would love to see that adopted by boost!

My wife is like this too. Edibles hit me in well under an hour usually, but for her it'll take at least 2 hours to hit. Everyone is a little different.

There's a light overarching story, but you don't really need to play all 3 previous Pikmin games. I also think that only Pikmin 3 is available on Switch, not 1 & 2.

You can look up a brief synopsis of the storylines in the previous games, but the story is pretty simple in all of them.

Jacob Geller puts out some of the best gaming videos out there.

He's one of those channels where I see a new video come out, and regardless of if the topic interests me, I'm watching it because I know Jacob will make me fascinated by it.

I'm imagining there will be a free and pro versions where the pro offers additional features for purchasing.

"Arguably worse for privacy than Reddit"

This poster clearly has some sort of vendetta against Lemmy and/or its creators with the comments on politics, etc.

Reddit takes your activity and packages/sells your data to advertisers. Lemmy does not. To say Lemmy is worse than Reddit for privacy is just not true.

I'd take that post with a hefty grain of salt.

It's arguably safer in your carry on than it is your checked luggage.

But going through customs on the other side where all your bags are likely to be scanned and searched, absolutely not worth the risk. Just buy new bud at your end destination.
