  Looking at you Windows 11

  Yeah, I got a new laptop recently with no intention of using the pre-installed OS, but I wanted to boot it up once just to make sure all the hardware was working.

  It may have actually taken longer to figure out how to create a local account on W11 than to wipe it and install Linux.

  Then you get things like GTA or Saints Row, where whether I want to be using kb+m or controller changes based on whether I’m driving or on foot.

  I’ve long thought that the ideal control scheme would somehow incorporate both a mouse for camera control, the sheer number of buttons you get from having your off-hand on a keyboard, and also analog inputs for things like movement/steering and vehicle throttle.

  I’ve been having a good time with Heart of the Machine, in which you play as a nascent AI figuring out how to survive in a sprawling cyberpunk city.

  I wouldn’t mind some Spelljammer also.

  Give us all the weird settings!

  It’s not a cliffhanger. I say go ahead and finish it.
