If they’re consistently looking down and to the right (for most apps) and not scanning/reading, they’re probably looking at their own video. I’ve certainly noticed it.

Yep. Everybody does. Watch where their eyes are pointing, you can tell. I hide the window on apps that let me (or un-maximize the window and slide it off the screen a bit if I’m on one side).

Beyond the time/energy cost, you’re comparing two different things: cooking healthy food from scratch vs. buying boxed ‘unhealthy’ food. Buying boxed ‘healthy’ food is more expensive than buying boxed ‘unhealthy’ food, and cooking ‘unhealthy’ food is cheaper than cooking ‘healthy’ food.

For example: I could make a huge mess of white rice and oil very cheaply and quickly. Every other ingredient I add will raise the cost and time investment. People say, “oh, just throw in some eggs/grilled chicken breast/fresh veggies and you have a cheap healthy meal!” but it’s still a lot more expensive to do that (in both money and time) than to just make rice.

Cooking costs time and energy, which not everyone can afford.

Lingo was amazing! My husband and I played through it together; he’s better at 3d navigation so he navigated, and I’m better at word games, and we had a blast. We should try some of the custom maps!

What do you mean? It’s still the owners’ decision whether to sell.

Maybe the owners care more about running a sustainable company that makes good games than they do about getting a bunch of money.

So have a lot of other war crimes that we’ve decided aren’t ok any more.
