Here’s a game you can play: See if you can find a single example of Donald making an insult that cannot easily be applied to him. He’s called women cows when he’s a McDonalds-chugging fatass. He’s called women “horse face” when he has a head that barely looks human. He’s called people “low IQ” when he can’t speak so good and he does not understand how percentages work. He’s called people liars even though he’s a compulsive liar who can’t be trusted to get even basic facts straight. He’s called people cowards even though he’s a draft dodger. He’s called people crooked when, well, he’s Donald Trump. Donald is the most thoroughly and deeply flawed person I am aware of. So yeah, he really does live in the glassiest of houses.

Started playing Cairn, which is a sort of a futuristic lite climbing simulation / adventure game. I've free soloed in the past and am now mostly bouldering at the gym these days - and I'd say the climbing mechanics are about as realistic (that is, allow the suspension of disbelief) as you can go and still be a game for casual players instead of a full-blown hardcore simulator. Granted, the protagonist can achieve a level of flexibility that makes me wince and what is beyond even the most flexible climbers I know at the gym, but overall it feels decent enough. And while you do place each limb separately on a hold, it's no QWOP - sometimes the holds look quite weird, but it's a game (and quite frankly, I've used holds that would look bloody weird to an outside observer). I'm not a fan of the survival mechanics, but those can be turned off - and maybe at some point some one will make a mod with more interesting survival gameplay.

Gaming observation and survey:

Whenever I’m faced with a choice of left or right, I always choose left first. Doesn’t matter if it’s a path, a menu choice, a skill tree, whatever. I sometimes just go left for the sake of going left 😅

I’ve always assumed this is because I’m left-handed so naturally bias towards my dominant side.

Datei-Paket wurde herunter geladen, ScumVM installiert, autm.Durchsuchen des PCs dort findet allerdings nichts. Ich habe das Gefühl, ich übersehe etwas Kleines, aber Wichtiges.

Das Game heißt "Pushover", ein kleines Rätselspiel.

Laut erster Recherche bräuchte es ggf. Wine oder Ludtris anstelle von ScumVM als unterstützendes Tool? Hat jemand damit Erfahrungen?
