It was so cool to play it online :D.

That’s a solid choice, also had my Windjammer period a long time ago :). Never thought a game inspired by Pong could be so good 😅.

Haha that’s exactly when I got a good computer! I was a console guy until the release of the HTC Vive, and I kept it up to date until today. Only got a Switch for Nintendo games, and waiting patiently for the remaining exclusives to release on PC (but I spend half of my play time on retro games through emulation 😅).

I can’t justify buying a PS5 for 1 or 2 games. Still waiting for a release on PC as well. But as soon as it releases elsewhere, I will buy it :).

Thank you for the info, I can now understand your reaction :).

Can you give more details? I don’t know either company, but could be interested in such product.

It does not happen to me very often when shopping, but earplugs with noise cancellation (eg AirPods Pro 2) was very effective when I needed to calm down. When working at the office, I use them a lot since it’s very noisy most of the time.

I felt the same a year ago when I realized I might share some traits described by autistic people. It was first a relief, a convenient explanation to most things I struggle with, and some “strange” traits of mine.

However, a diagnosis is very difficult to get in my country (years of waiting, not even sure I would get it one day). I decided not to do it because I don’t feel it would change anything beyond the validation. I don’t consider myself as truly autistic since I have no diagnosis, but I keep it in mind when I encounter difficulties, and it helped me a few times.

And that’s why I am very grateful to the emulation community (except for currently sold games / machines like the Switch obviously). Unfortunately, it is illegal at some point, but I believe it is the only way to save as much video game as possible for the next generations.

I don’t have an issue with eating because I have pretty strong eating habits established (except I sometimes skip my 4pm lunch because I am too focus on my work). But it’s a very different story when it comes to clothes, especially because weather changes quickly where I live (even during the same day). I try to establish some rules linked to the weather, but I do not always do it very well (and it’s worse when I forgot to look at the weather, it’s not a strong enough habit at the moment).

It does not bother me a lot in practice, but people tend to tell me something is wrong (hot and I have no shirt, or cold and I have a shirt).

What helped me a lot was to look at a single eye, and not be afraid not to respond immediately (just a quick « let me think about it » + break eye contact + take 5-10 seconds before speaking again). Not perfect, but it’s much more manageable this way. If it’s a meeting with multiple people, I also tend to not look at the other people immediately (it feels easier to me to look at others while I am already « reciting »).

FF Thearythm & Zelda TOTK on Switch, Baten Kaitos on GC, and Mario & Luigi Superstar saga on GBA (only short games of course :p). Oh and I am also playing Pokemon Stadium 2 on N64 😅.

Jokes aside, I started too many games this time, I am not generally this busy ^^.

Thank you and everyone else. I hope we can build a sustainable community in the long run 🤞.
