I feel like they really could have picked a name that wouldn't be mistaken for glorifying police shootouts.

Why don't they try actually making it easy to stream Steam games to TVs?

Steam Link is an app now, instead of a set-top box. Probably won't be getting any easier than that, outside of investing in a 50- or 100-foot HDMI cable.

Working from home is exhausting when you can't leave. There becomes no difference between 8pm on a Saturday and 10am on a Tuesday. If you're awake, you may as well work. Do you want to take a break? You can walk maybe 5 feet. You're walking around significantly less, and changing gears less, so everything becomes some really weird blur. Any distinction between work and not work totally ends. Yeah, you can set boundaries, but at some point they stop feeling as if they matter. You're going to be on the same couch or seat. There's not much to do. May as well do some work, especially since you probably have Teams and Outlook on every screen you loonat and can see it's buzzing with a question.

It's not physically exhausting, it's mentally.

Unfortunately, in some ways they are. There are people who make a living that way, so close the store and they are out of a job. That's a problem we are working to solve, but I suspect no matter what is done a lot of people are going to take a big hit to their long term financial health.

What are other mandated-shut-ins firing up this week?
