Oh man Celeste was FANTASTIC. I've been active in /r/gamedev for forever (because I used to teach high school kids how to make video games), so I was already interested but this seals the deal. The storytelling, the accessibi

I had a similar example the other day. I was visiting Arizona for the first time and was driving in a rental car from Phoenix south to Tucson. I have the latest Google Pixel, and was using Google Maps to navigate. I pressed the "voice

Ah, I missed that this was your second home. Was your first home purchase 10+ years ago?
