Steam's recommendation engine is so useless. Either it'll be like: "Dragon Ball Z. Similar to games you've played: Skyrim!"

or else: "You've only played 15 other supernatural horror visual novels set in 1980s Japan, so it's impossible to tell if you'd be interested in this one too"

Thanks for the answers; indeed, I’m in the UK. Plugging the sink is exactly what we did, I was just curious if that was the canonical method.

I’m in a hotel room where the sink has separate taps for hot and cold water, opposite sides of the basin. How are you supposed to use it?

There's a dataview plugin that lets you generate tables based off of whatever annotations you've added to your cards.

In this screenshot, the list on top is manually compiled while the table below is generated by querying release dates that I've added to game pages.

Okay, Mastodon friends, I rarely ask for amplification about my day job, but I personally pushed for my employer to make a big investment in enabling the fediverse, and I'd love for everyone to show that the support is appreciated. On June 28, you can join us for a (FREE!) hands-on conversation about how the Fastly team worked to support @Mastodon while the service was under a *massive* DDOS attack. Everyone who cares about scaling the fediverse should join: https://learn.fastly.com/security-mitigating-ddos-and-traffic-surges-with-mastodon @devs
