Try iNaturalist, it works pretty well. Also, learn plant morphology, makes it easier to narrow things down when you get a couple suggestions within the same genus or family.

Probably not a popular view here but I've found my hobbies more fulfilling since I started doing stuff other than gaming. Native plant/food gardening, reading books, working out... all of this stuff can be affected by capitalism too of course but I'm less beholden to it. I still game a bit now and then but much less than I used to.
I honestly don't get why so many people are so reckless and impatient on the roads.
Driving provides you anonymity and a getaway vehicle. It also anonymzes other people on the road, which I think kinda gives people like, main character syndrome?
AI-generated articles, books, coloring books for example, are all a thing now. Behind the Bastards did a podcast episode on the latter two.
Sauteed/air fryer brussels sprouts 🤌
I used to hate tomatoes, then I tried home-grown and just realized grocery store tomatoes often suck by comparison. There are many plants that don't store/ship well so you either can't get them in stores (e.g. pawpaws) or they taste bad because of short shelf life/bruising.
Remote workers are overall more productive, report a better work-life balance, and suffer less from occupational burnout. It also saves companies money because they don't have to spend as much on office space.
My time is the most precious commodity I have. Unfortunately I'm in a career where I can't work remotely, but if I was I would refuse to go back to the office. Life is too precious to waste it sitting in traffic if you don't have to.
Also, rain exists...
Stasis was in the first game, yes. You were required to use it several times to be able to pass through a few malfunctioning doors. You get it for free early in the game and don't have to upgrade it at all to open the doors, preventing the game from soft locking itself.
From what I can tell, a lot of jobs are already like that. It's almost like society isn't designed to make people happy 😑
There also isn't any guarantee that a quality game will actually sell well, especially if the dev takes a risk and creates something new instead of releasing the 14th installment in a well-established series. It sucks but this is what it looks like when you have gigantic businesses steering video game development.

My last Ford was a Focus with the dual clutch transmission, it was a complete fucking lemon (to the point where they were successfully sued over it and have done multiple recalls to fix it). I can excuse an automaker for the occasional shit car if their overall lineup is good and they're honest with customers, but they knew the transmission was majorly flawed and continued to manufacturer vehicles that used it anyway. I've had it refuse to shift while I was driving on the highway before, which left me redlining at maybe 45 MPH. Dangerous and it could have gotten someone killed. I will never buy another Ford.
