Most likely yes, as many others have said. Of course you'll likely have to pick a very lightweight DE.

As a fallback there is always NetBSD.

I almost forgot about SimEarth. For some reason I was allowed to play it in grade school computer lab. I wish they would remake it so I can recreate my sentient cephalopod uprising, except with graphics that aren't complete ass.

I never played SimLife. But no, Spore is really not like SimEarth at all. As the other person said, Spore is disappointingly shallow on all levels.

Someone should get this chart as a full body tattoo. Please report back; I'll be waiting.

Does it have to be set in America? I'd think the genre could work almost anywhere with technological cities.

Ha, I had one and it's what first came to mind too. Pretty useless.

Oh I didn't realize the new Tool video had dropped.

Excuse me, that's the weed patio. The hookah goes on the porch.

Sure, but most people probably don't know that detail. Hunters probably do, but for your average dumbass a simple "don't shoot any guns into the air" rule is probably for the best.

I guess that's fine if you live on a large isolated property. Where I am, the neighbor's house is like 3.5m away.

No, ignore this. Never shoot guns into the air, it's both dangerous and stupid.

Yep it's Elden Ring for me too. I've been running my second character (pure sorcery) on and off for a while but the hype has me back in it. I'm a little tired of the gameplay and way more into the lore now. Hoping the new weapons and abilities give it a fresh feeling.

Oh man, enjoy. In some ways RDR2 is the best game ever. Some of the side encounters and story twists are top notch, and the game is gorgeous even on my ancient PC or Steam Deck. For some reason I stopped playing halfway through (I think I got distracted by Deep Rock Galactic over the holidays) but really need to pick it back up.

 

What non-game paid apps do you use that are worthwhile and still relevant in 2023?

For context, I have a decent amount of Google Play credit thanks to Opinion Rewards and a gift card. I'm not looking to start a book or movie collection there, nor sign up for subscription services. But I'm happy to buy the paid/pro version of useful apps.

I'm excluding games just because that's a whole topic on its own.

Here are some one-time paid apps I've been happy with:
