"...to first face that challenge and to overcome it in some way that suits them as a player."
Honestly when that player is me, this is just going to mean playing a different game. I'm old and busy, I really don't have the time or energy for hard games.
This looks fantastic and not nearly dull enough, but I have a silly and possibly dull gripe with the name "little free library", and this isn't directed at OP or anyone in particular, I know this is just what these things are typically called, but... you know that the big library is also free, right?
If attempting to count calories leads to eating less, and that leads to weight loss, bravo, you did a thing. But you could accomplish the same thing just by going to bed a little bit hungry most nights.
Do you know how they figured out how much energy is in food? The burned it. Literally burned, with fire. You may be surprised to learn that's not what our bodies do.
If you're eating processed food from a factory, the estimate of energy contained in the food (note, this is not what you'll absorb from the food) may be fairly accurate, but if you ever cook at home, then you're just adding a wild guess on top of an educated guess. You may as well just throw some darts at some numbers and save yourself some time.
Sure it matters, but you don't know. You don't know how many calories you are actually absorbing from that food, and you don't know how long it takes to burn them off. Your metabolism can do all kinds of shenanigans, and unless the CO2 you're breathing out is being measured, you simply don't know what it's up to.
It's not accurate enough to be useful. You know the difference between a snickers bar and a cucumber. One is very energy dense, one is not. Putting specific numbers on it adds no value when those numbers are just guesses.
I have an old wired xbone controller, or 360 actually, that's older than my nephew who recently graduated from grade 8. The drift is only noticable in a couple of games, and the rubber has fallen off the joysticks, but the plastic underneath is nice and smooth. I'm sure the quality has gone down since then.
I know before the war started, I read some coverage from the Guardian of the protests in Iran that was leaning pretty hard into some lurid details and leaving out relevant information that didn't suit the narrative.
What I wanna know is how hard it is to pull these apart.
