I get this satisfaction from mining big spaces in Minecraft, mindless but satisfying.

Unfortunately this specific activity in Minecraft very easily turns into an enormous time sink which unless I was really too tired to do anything else and sleeping wasn’t an option, I inevitably regret afterwards.



That's kind of how video games started to feel after ~30.

You can't unsee the Skinner boxes, once you notice them.

But they are generally targeted at ~18 biological age, so I'd expect suspension of disbelief in value can only stretch so many years.
