  • I just phoned a business today that ended up with an “AI receptionist” when they didn’t answer the phone.

    They wanted to take my name down, asked who I was leaving a message for, and then recorded the message…

    My god what a painful process that was. It was absolutely useless. Firstly it got my name wrong, and then the name of the person I was leaving the message for wrong. No “Janet” my name is not Don it’s John, and no I’m not leaving a message for Kim Its for Kam. And then it needs to repeat your entire message back to you in order to make sure it didn’t fuck it up which amazingly the message was probably 95% okay but it was a giant waste of my time when a FUCKIN VOICEMAIL WOULD HAVE SUFFICED










  • There a free to play online game called Palia that’s pretty chill.

    Not as farm intensive as stardew, but you do have a few plots to grow crops and you can refine them into jams and pickled goods, etc.

    Can also cook your food into meals, give gifts to villagers to build up relationships, and each villager has a story and background to learn.

    There is also mining, tree felling, plant foraging, animal hunting, fishing, etc.

    It’s a first person 3D world, and I haven’t tried it with controller but I imagine it would be fine.

    It’s very chill, there is pretty much no negatives for any action or inaction that you take.

    Oh also you can build your house on your plot of land and decorate it with a shit ton of decorative furniture and nic knacks.

    Main storyline quests are not too bad either, there is a story to the world that develops as well.
