Okay, well, not hearing anybody. They'll come back up after a bit. Let's start with... Uh... Hang on. Oh, let's start with Darryl. Go on, Darryl. B01UKZ. How are you today? How's your... All your gaming stuff working for you today? J0ECK. Well, good morning to you, Gail, and hello to Hank as well. I hope you guys are doing good. Oh, on the gaming side of things, everything is working really well. Contemplating starting a new game. Super Mega Baseball 4. Haven't played a baseball game in... My God, it must be 20 years. Literally. The last baseball game I played, I think it was on PlayStation 2. Back in the day, and they're on PlayStation 5 now, so I mean, it's definitely 20 years ago for sure. And this one looks really good, and it's only $6. So, that's a buy. On Steam right now, it's on for 75% off. It's normally $45 or $50. So, being on for $6 right now makes it a very enticing game. And it looks like it's going to be a very good game. And it looks like it's not one of those newer type games where you've got to buy every little thing inside the game with real money. I hate those experiences. Like, I'm out the line of thinking, if you buy a video game, it should come with... Everything that's included should come with it. Not, oh, you've got to pay $5 extra for this, or $20 extra for this. And, you know, I'm all for companies making new downloadable content for video games. But if they're going to charge you extra for it above, like, the base price of the game, nah, not interested. Really not interested. It's just not my kind of thing at all. I feel if you buy something, you should get whatever's included. And a lot of companies are doing this at this day and age. You know, if you buy a Tesla, you go out and you spend $50,000 or $60,000 or $70,000 or $80,000 or $100,000 on a Tesla. Do you know you've got to spend an additional $10,000 to get the self-driving features? I think Audi had a thing there a couple of years ago where it was a paid upgrade for the heated seats. Like, the gear was all in the seats to heat them and cool them. But you didn't get that when you bought the car. It was a software update and they didn't have to physically do anything to the car. They just downloaded an update once you paid the money and you got heated seats. I think that we shouldn't allow companies to micromanage every little aspect of things. If you're going to sell a product, sell the product with everything that product, you know, needs. Or if it has technology in it, turn it on. You know, don't charge people an extra $10,000 Tesla for the self-driving feature. All the sensors are in the car to be able to do it when you buy it, but yet they want to charge you an extra $10,000 to make it happen. Nah, I don't agree with that one bit. That's raking your customers over to Kohl's and I definitely don't agree with it. But this Super Mega Baseball game doesn't have any of that stuff. All the additional maps are all free. All the different stadiums and players and customizations, all of it is free. Which I'm very, very open to. Especially for $6. I mean, and it would be even cheaper in the States. It's probably like $3.99 in the States right now. So anybody that's into gaming, especially if you're doing it on a PC, there's some incredibly good deals out there on PC games when it comes to Steam and when it comes to the Epic Games Store. I mean, Epic gives away a new free game every week. They just give it to you. Add it to your account, click, don't play it now, play it later, whatever. I mostly use Steam, but I do use Epic for their free games. I do win there once a week and click Add to Library on the free games because you never know when you'll be able to play those. It's always nice to have choices. Other than that, everything's going well up here. I hope everybody's having a good day. I'll go ahead and pass it back to you, Gail. And happy Tuesday to everybody on board. This is V01, UKZ, Darryl on the Rock, 73.
