The PS1 had a good Quake II port, which is even better with the flexibility of customizing the controls through emulators.

Install Emu Deck and it handles the rest for you in an intuitive GUI

It sounds crass, but there is good science behind attachment and neural connections in your brain: have sex with someone new if you want to get over someone else. Your brain will pretty quickly begin to detach from your last partner.

Just also know that (aside from actual sociopaths) almost everyone starts to catch feelings for a new sexual partner after you've had sex three times. Obviously don't let it get that far if you don't want to get attached to that new partner.

I think this is why so many people look for rebound relationships whether or not they're aware of the neural connections changing. It feels better to start moving on even if that new relationship is completely superficial.

I only put this to the test one time before I met my wife, but I think it helped me move on from an abusive relationship.

I would personally be inclined to take the meeting to better know how to counter their efforts.

I've been experiencing this on my comments too. I specifically kept my account open for now because I figured this might happen, and I want to be able to keep editing and deleting them.

The quality of the test environment isn't guaranteed though. I ran a production system that had a shell of a "test" environment with no data from prod. I repeatedly told the vendor testing in their "test" environment was worthless because without the prod data I had no real way to recreate so many of the situations that naturally came up for my users in the production software. The vendor refused to correct the problem, so I told them - with all the relevant managers present - to stop asking me to waste my time testing new releases when doing so was effectively useless.

I'd say it's kinda like having a "10-second" car that everyone loves and wants, but then you start ripping out some of the best performance parts and installing inferior parts in their place.

Does the car still run? It does. Is it slowly imploding because you've upset the engine's balance to the point where it's becoming dysfunctional? Also yes.

It's only a matter of time before the pretty paint job no longer hides the garbage under the hood.

Wow. That's especially pathetic of the admins.

Do you mean we could have seen this trope a dozen times before?

I recently read the first Foundation novel as well as most of the second. Asimov was clearly not envisioning a more egalitarian future when he wrote about housewives destabilizing society when their appliances break and they can't get them fixed or replaced.

I honestly lost a lot of interest in continuing the series just because of that, but I also couldn't get attached to any of the characters since it zips around in history so quickly. I get that civilization itself is supposed to be a "character" of sorts, but that just doesn't appeal to me.

I did like the first season of the show, however.

I have a friend who tried to get me to join him and his online buddies on every new big multiplayer game. Out of the literally dozens he recommended to me, I bought maybe two, and those two have a great single player campaign.

I've always preferred single player games, and I feel like I don't waste money like I would on whatever the current hot MMO is. MMOs go stale or the community changes, and then you will probably never play it again. Single player games just largely don't go that way and are repayable.
