Life Lessons We Can Learn From Video Games

Contrary to what those anti-gamer curmudgeons will have you believe, video games are more than just a source of mindless entertainment, or something to keep your thumbs and eyeballs busy.  

In fact, you can even discover good advice in video games, life lessons that ring true whether you're playing a godlike warrior, or an average human trying to survive in a horrifying post-apocalyptic world:

Julia Lepetit from Dorkly has created a collection of illustrated life lessons gathered from hit games like The Last of Us, Elder Scrolls: Skyrim and Minecraft, lessons that may inspire you to seek wisdom from whatever game(s) you're currently playing.

I know this is really geeky. Someone posted the dimensions of the actual energy domes:

Dimensions for the Energy Domes (a.k.a. Flowerpot Hats) from Klilin:

This taken from a hat I caught at a concert:
material-thin plastic (vacu-formed), crimson red
form-4layer slightly conical crossection stack
base-9.3/8 tapers to 8.5/8 , 1.3/4 tall
next-7.1/2 tapers to 7 , 1.3/4 tall
next-5.5/8 tapers to 5 , 1.1/4 tall
top- 3.3/4 tapers to 3.1/2 , 3/4 tall
total height-5
logo on top-

EV
D O

letter size-3/4
top embossed 3/64
all dimensions in inches

By the way, the domes sold through the fan club are not the same as the ones actually worn by DEVO - DEVO's domes are bigger and don't have the letters on top.

Got a fresh look at those hats when I saw Deathcab for Cutie live in Toronto on Hallowe'en night last year. For their encore they all emerged wearing the same red vacuum formed hats and yellow plastic coveralls from the classic DEVO era and played 4 consecutive covers.
