That's my thought.

Was starting my usual morning routine, cup of tea, turn on the PC to check things... And the PC wouldn't power on. Checked it a few times, opened it up, ran through the usual suspects. Flick the power switch on back, mouse and keyboard light up, but absolutely no reaction when the main on/off switch was pressed. Couldn't go in-depth since I had to start work. Then several hours later I walk past, pat the top of the PC pondering on what to check when lunch arrives... And the PC turned itself on.

I've managed to spend about 35 hours playing Horizon Zero Dawn over the Easter weekend.... Facing that awkward quandary in any mostly open world setting, side quests, and assorted non-main plotline errands that kick my minimal OCD into gear. Having a couple of those side quests where dialogue makes it sound as if you have done stuff to earn a major reputation before you've actually done it, and then running into things where I keep asking myself "Hm, should I have pushed more of the main plot first and then this stuff makes more sense / fits better than randomly stumbling into it?" Then also the pondering on whether I should do all the DLC stuff before getting too far into the main games story, or when most of it is done?

Picked up Horizon Zero Dawn with the Steam sale on it. Then made the mistake of starting it up at about 22:30 last night to test it out, see how the tutorial played.... Then I realised it was around 0415 and decided I should probably call it a night.

Doing on-line food shop. When I type Magnum I get offered ice cream or 1.5L of Verve Clicquot. This has radically complicated my dessert choice.
