Gotcha, moving to Western New York to live parallel to the lake now. Thanks!

Where do you live so I can move there.

Kicking my way through Ultima I, a partner gave me two more weeks to beat it and I think I can probably do it in one… day… if I get my mind into it.

Also trying to beat Guardian Tales in the same two weeks since it’s been on my phone so long. I want to get it off my phone so I have more room for other things, but I feel like I’m far enough into it I shouldn’t just toss it away without completing it.

The classics are good, Crazy 8’s, Go Fish (which is better reversed, where you can see other people’s hands but not your own), Egyptian Ratscrew, President/Scum, and so on, but I genuinely enjoy Mao the most.

Between the simple quality of the base rules and the fascinating depth, deduction, and memory puzzle as the game progresses… It’s wonderful. Sadly, too many people choose to play the game as an inside joke or gatekeeping game, whereas the game is best played with a more teaching role at heart. Still penalize for failure to follow rules, but enunciate why and be deliberate about it, so they have a chance to learn from their mistakes, or others’!

Ooh! That looks doable!

Is there a service that is only email? Most of the offerings in those packages are either too much bloat of applications that are unnecessary, and/or are too expensive for what they actually would provide that we would use.

I’d much rather keep using the tools that we’re used to and have set up than move to a different ecosystem, especially one that tracks a lot of the data we use with it

I’m not terribly worried about a service seeing my traffic, the initial concept was for a self-hosted server to run a business email and site and some tools on, but I can’t do email through my ISP without paying an arm and a leg, and my business doesn’t make enough for that…

Thanks! I’ll look into that
