It would either be Golden Axe or Space Cadet Pinball.

I also watched Pokemon and DBZ when I was young, not even knowing about anime.

I love the Moon+ Reader app. Tons of features. I like that it has a dark mode and you can set the brightness very very low (on OLED) so reading in the dark at night is comfortable.

In addition to all the automation everyone has talked about, some of us are also data nerds.

I enjoy knowing the temp, air quality, etc. in every room. How does this change throughout the day/season? Did leaving this door open or this fan on improve anything? What can I automate at what threshold to improve things?

You can also get a lot of data about energy usage too. And if you have solar and battery, it’s neat seeing how much it affects and how much you save.

Automation is useful, but in the end it’s just a hobby like many other things. It’s fine to be into it or not into it.

This becomes even more cute when you consider the very real possibility that she made the cake specifically to have an excuse to come visit.
