The Longest Day, IIRC, but it's a small part.

Overly lengthy AI slop posted by a bot to shill for a stupid app? No thank you.

Some people are obviously farming clown awards on the Steam Community forums, probably to distract themselves from their pitifully meaningless existence.

As I've said before, Steam needs stronger moderation. But barring people who don't own the game from the conversation is not the solution. Sometimes you have legitimate questions about a game before you buy. Or maybe you own it on another platform.

Ah yes, I believe this is called "Much Ado About Nothing" in Stratford-upon-Avon.

Heathcliff is a smart guy for keeping his window closed.

Again, you point out why "normal" is an iffy notion to begin with. Thank you for elaborating instead of just downvoting. 🙂

Failing to fully utilize the existing antenna diversity options on modern routers/APs might be another common cause that comes to mind.

Except if you have an ECOVACS cleaning robot which refuses to work with modern 5GHz networks. I actually had to install a Wi-Fi bridge to get around that limitation; thankfully, I still had one lying around. Helped me get a better signal for my phone in the bathroom as well.

But thank you for adding this information. Congestion due to interference from other networks (I guess that's what you meant) can definitely be a factor as well. I guess that's the problem with the notion of "normal" that I employed rather carelessly.

Sidenote: the fact that your Wi-Fi still works in those conditions at all instead of shutting down goes back to pioneering research done by actress-cum-scientist Hedy Lamarr during WW2. Amazing woman.
