This is probably not your speed, but I can’t stop myself from mentioning Deathloop…
Also, and this is a bit of a stretch, but Day of The Tentacle was a great game with a time element… I’m reminded by this because I asked ChatGPT for a list of games that met this criteria.

What do you think of their redesign? I’m sure it’s not for everyone.
Following…
Add Mercedes to that list of companies close to doing this
Is it possible to leave the thing powered on, and trigger the updates on a schedule, or remotely?
Sure, but I think there’s still benefit to what the other person did. Search DDG by default, and then if you don’t see good results, it’s one extra click for the google search… vs mousing, clicking, 2 keystrokes…
Hypothetically, ask AI to write a short story in the style of one of these writers. Don’t tell anyone. Get popular, reduce demand for original writer. People only have so much time, after all.
More likely, they just want to be compensated for their “voice”.
Not advocating for either of these… just thinking about why
Perhaps there’s a way to do this via hotspot, but I meant tether via physical connection to the router. Some routers do offer failover to secondary networks. Possibly with qos to prevent scarfing, as you put it ;)
They mean using something with a cellular radio. A router, or a tethered cellphone.
Do hobbies! Cooking classes! Join clubs!
I’m not being skeptical!
Yeah, I’m content with who I am.
Your assumption regarding my goal is wrong though. I took care to explain my thoughts in a way that didn’t deny the possibility outright. No worries if you missed that, or are skeptical.
I think most can agree (even if you don’t) that the chances of this are just wild. That itself was interesting enough to me that I chose to type out 2 comments. I’m told commenting/contributing is the point of being on lemmy?
Anyway, I don’t know who pissed in your wheaties, but I hope your day improves from here.
Yeah, I’m not saying it’s impossible, just incredibly unlikely.
The number of people out there that fit the description of your mother is low.
The number of people that could have intelligently answered the question is a bit higher, but still low.
The likelihood of those 2 people meeting in a store not dedicated to computer tech, and having this exact conversation, is like… monkeys playing Mozart level unlikely. ;)
I don’t have any reason to not trust OP, but the likelihood of this conversation happening at ALL seems incredibly unlikely. Never mind that it is described as successful.
If true, this is amazing.
The sauce in the spoon looks like a pickled cucumber, including the cucumber peel.
I usually have good luck with serious eats recipes.
The pickle is a lie!
Can you see the thing I’m talking about? Just near the spoon. It’s not just me, right?
Is that a savory bread pudding?? I’ve only eaten sweet ones, but I spy green things that I can only guess are pickles??
Is there a card I can sign?
I wonder what percentage of players opt for the “story only” difficulties? Has anyone done this sort of study? One dev found that 70% opt for easy mode. They point out that most people don’t finish most games, and easy modes help increase that number.
