By stacking, I mean adding the units together on a single tile into armies so the units all fight together. Civ VI does have this, but in a very limited capacity (as you mentioned, up to 3 units). Older games had many more stacking possibilities (Civ III actually had infinite unit stacking, which was cataclysmically crazy lol, but I think Call to Power II really struck a good number with a max of 12 units in a tile)

Recent? None so far.

Somewhat old? Civilization III. I ordered it like 5 years ago and was trying to scratch the itch left by Call to Power II, but the multiplayer is flaky at best on LAN and the tech tree just isn't interesting to me. Later entries also have the "tech tree doesn't interest me" thing and also don't scratch the Call to Power itch (they don't have the wacky future tech like hover tanks and eco-warfare) but they also look a lot more visually interesting at least.

I miss when stacking was a thing in Civ. Sure it was relatively unbalanced, but that's part of the fun in my experience.

Definitely Littlebigplanet 2. Also, Skyrim.

Man, I love Debian. It's not the sexiest distro, but it gets the job done damn well

Are you me, but Canadian? I completely and entirely agree with your comment (USA checking in). Some of our biggest issues are directly caused by our utter dependence on cars, but also by different driving laws in different areas, dumb exit / entrance designs, lack of signage in critical areas (especially regarding high-speed turns) and general disrepair of the roads. These things all compound to make accidents one of the leading causes of death worldwide.

There should be more uniform rules and regulations regarding letting just anyone drive a 2+ ton vehicle, and it's abhorrent how little you need to know to pass a driving test

I don't even trust Steam, let alone Mozilla. I don't think I've ever had any credit card auto-fill on any browser I've ever had

The Linux Experiment is regularly sponsored by some of them (IE Tuxedo)

I don't have any musicians that consistently make me feel that way, so have a list of songs instead:

  • The Price of a Mile (Sabaton)
  • Doomed (I Prevail)
  • Let Me Be Sad (I Prevail)
  • Soon You'll Get Better (Taylor Swift ft. The Chicks)
  • Wildest Dreams (Taylor Swift)
  • Tess-Timony (Ice Nine Kills)
  • When the Party's Over (Billie Eilish)

How the hell do you even think "it's fine, I'll put this password in plain text" when literally building an app for a CREDIT UNION? Obviously it's not acceptable to do that anywhere, but you would think they would think just a little bit harder about the decision when working with such sensitive data?
