Well we don't "pre-open" the communitiesπŸ˜… . The hope is that emulation enthusiasts would naturally realize our instance is the best fit for that sort of thing.

This is already happening even with Aaa games. The initial purchase doesn't seem to stop them anyway.

And no I don't worry about it. I think if there's motivation we'll figure out the way. People won't just ship making or playing good games.

That hijack is one of their worst blunders though as pirates are very romanticized in culture. They just made us look way cooler than the computer nerds we are.

I'm really great at networking. It's the only way I've found to find new jons. I still suck at interviewing though

I've been consistently top performing in all my positions with glowing reviews from all my managers. I can play with the corporate game very well. And yet almost all my jobs were found through networking and the few interview cycles I've attempted were always failures, often surprising the people who vouched for me on how bad I was at interviewing. I'm talking failed interviews which I ended up getting in demoted through another neurospicy person fighting for the me against management, only for me to outperform everyone else by 50%.

These are not the same skills.

Kids are a special case. You can't be forcing your interests on them. If they're in the mood, they'll stay. If not, another time.

I immigrated for the second time in my late 30s and lost all my friend circle all over again and then found new ones. There's a lot of people in the world so no reason to stop looking.

My peep, of course there's a selection bias here. The selection bias is that interviews are a big problem for ADHD/ASD people. I'm glad you've been lucky enough to not suffer what most of us here do but that's scant consolation for the rest of us.

Pro-tip: Asking permission to interrupt to say your bit goes down much much better than just interjecting

Note that this doesn't work for everyone. I find that gamifying your own tasks is a bit like trying to tickle yourself.
