I feel like it’s the opposite for the people I know. I know plenty of people with an old Switch who might play one or two games a year on or just break out Mario Kart when visitors come over, but it’s the people I know with a PS5 or a gaming PC who keep up with the new releases.
The trick is to work a job where you never have enough time for a proper lunch. It becomes a habit quite fast when that happens.
I usually have heated up leftovers for breakfast. Sweet cereals and sweet baked things and sweet smoothies like others are recommending are not my sort of thing.
It was a thing back in the late 1990s as part of the antiglobalization movement. Look up old issues of the Adbusters magazine or Naomi Klein’s book ‘No Logo’
This is genuinely the real answer in English that grammatically works and is broadly understandable. Unfortunately, about a century of anti-communist propaganda has caused some people to see it as having awkward connotations.
Remember, it’s not about whether there are or are not any guns around, or whether or not crossing the road is dangerous, or any actual potential chance of crime or anything else actually real. That’s not what a survey like this does. This survey is based on respondents perceptions about safety. People will be thinking of all sorts of things, much of it based on what they see in the news and on social media and so on, not on crime rates or pedestrian injury statistics or anything like that.
This survey is not about whether a country has or does not have safe streets, nor does it offer any kind of definition of what safety means. In New Zealand, for example, there have been decades long-running public information campaigns about dangerous driving and road deaths. Might that be what some people have in mind when they consider whether a street is safe to walk at night? It’s certainly more likely than any thoughts involving guns, which is maybe what an American might have in mind when asked about whether a street is safe.
Nah, this is not what professional academic feedback for a 650 word project should look like. The entirety of the feedback for a tiny piece of writing (that most of the class will have ChatGPT write for them anyway) should have been:
“0/10 does not address the question.”
Anything more than that should not have been written by the TA. The TA is absolutely not being paid enough to write such lengthy feedback, and it isn’t a TA’s responsibility to deal with formal appeals. This whole thing was mismanaged by the tenured academics and administrators and should have never happened, and now they’re scapegoating the poor TA.
Material that is hazardous to online reactionaries needs to be discussed extremely carefully, and treating the students like royalty with lengthy bespoke feedback for baby’s-first-writing-project is just inviting disaster. Criticize them about their transphobia in-person during office hours or a small classroom setting where you can yell at them to put their phones away. Do not write that shit in the fucking chat window on moodle or blackboard where students can screenshot and post it to the toxic algorithmic apps that they actually pay attention to during their spare time instead of doing the fucking assigned readings.
Will it break the internet? Half Life 2 came out, what, 20-something years ago? Half Life 1 nearly 30 years ago? There’s a lot of rapidly aging Zoomers out there who have never even heard of Half Life, nevermind the gen alpha teens who consider Zelda BotW to be nostalgic and retro.
You need to have at least attended a few art history and media studies classes before you can possibly realise that illustrating a think piece about education with a photo of one of the many Rodin’s The Thinker copies next to a generic campus colonnade indicates that the piece is a shallow retelling of a tired cliche.
I’m not sure if “gamefeel” is any one thing, really. There are lots of suggestions in this thread of things that are part of games, but “gamefeel” is so non-specific a term it becomes kind of useless when applied to games in general. Why are some games good to play and others not good to play? Lots of reasons, some of which are contradictory. Some games are too fast, others too slow, some have a good story at their heart, others no story at all, some because they are tightly defined linear experiences, others because of you can wander aimlessly in an open world, etc etc.
