Also this article has been updated with additional high-quality expert quotes, including:

"The bathroom, specifically the toilet, is a place for quick and efficient defecation—any distractions should be left outside."

I’ve been an avid mountain biker for many years. When I moved to Ohio, I thought those days were over. But I found there are some surprisingly good trails fairly close.

Lamb Loop Mountain Bike Trail, Boston Heights, Ohio

Some of the best machine-built, very flowy trail with lots of jumps, berms, and other new-school features. Near Boston Heights, Ohio.

After finishing Metroid Dread (Switch) and Prince Of Persia: The Lost Crown (Steam Deck), I decided to play Hollow Knight after reading high praise about it. I never finished it. I just didn't like it as much as the others

I thought I'd give it a try with a coding issue. I got what seemed like good code on the first try, but it threw an error. Chat gave me new code to fix the error, but that threw a different one. After about 4 iterations of fix -> error -> fix, it eventually loooped back to the first useless code.
