Influence the game’s outcome by making your own decisions.

Ever since I can remember, I have wished that I’d grown up in a fantasy world filled with magic and fantastical creatures. More than any other game out there, Fire Emblem: Three Houses satisfies this craving for me, but it also does much more. In addition to the fantastic tactical strategy combat scenarios these games are best known for, this game offers several mini-games, allows you to pursue a romantic relationship, and gives you the ability to focus on the specific fighting skills you want to employ. Plus, it lets you make choices that shape not only your future but also your relationships with those around you.

You start the game playing as Byleth, a young male or female mercenary who gets hired on as a professor at a local academy. At the school, you’ll choose from one of three houses and become closely acquainted with the noble house leader and the other unique students in that group. Sounds a bit like medieval Hogwa…

You can get some sweet deals and services as a Costco member.

I’m not going to suggest that you run out and buy a Costco membership today so that you can take advantage of their photo services. But if you already have a membership, one of the perks is Costco’s fair-priced, high-quality photo center. They have a pretty nice array of photo print sizes, photo products, and other print services worth checking out.

Using Restrictions is a great way to allow your kids to use all the apps and features you want them to use and none of the ones you don’t.

Parental Controls, also known as Restrictions, let you manage which features, apps, and content your kids can and can’t access on the iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad. It also lets you set Screen Time limits for specific apps that you’d rather your kids not spend all day on. If you want to disable specific apps altogether, here’s how!

How to set Restrictions on iPhone and iPad in iOS

Restrictions are located under Screen Time in your Settings. Here’s how to get there.

During its earnings call on Tuesday, Apple CEO Tim Cook said the company wants to make the new Mac Pro in the U.S., seemingly responding to a Tweet from President Trump.

”In terms of exclusions, we’ve been making the Mac Pro in the U.S.,” Cook said. ”We want to continue to do that. So we’re working and investing currently in capacity to do so, because we want to continue to be here. And so that’s what’s behind the exclusions. So we’re explaining that and hope for a positive outcome.”

President Trump last week took to Twitter to say Apple wouldn’t be exempt from tariffs on Mac Pro parts, after the company requested exclusions.
