Yes! Actually, I only play one tabletop game, because it leaves no time for any other: Advanced Squad Leader (ASL). The most complex tactical board wargame in existence (since 1985). Probably the highest complexity which a human could manage without computer aid.

I love to play it, to get away from the keyboard from time to time.

An old car you tinker on?

Yes! The 1994 Honda Prelude IV. A timeless beauty. Although, I cannot tinker with it. I have to pay my car service a lot for maintenance. I'm driving with it since decades through half of Europe (from the french Atlantic coast to southern Sweden).

Awesome! I do dabble in ASL but these days I admit its more Panzer Grenadier. ASL is definitely a "lifestyle" game.

I don't like ANYTHING about this century, it's all a shitshow of a millennial failure except for DLP chip by Texas Instruments.

Where is my Mars colony!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No mars colony but instead we have insanely fast CPUs, GPUs and storage media that fits a terabyte of data on your pinky nail. It's cool to be in the future.

In my humble opinion, smartphones have destroyed society. I hate them more than any other tech that ever existed.
