To be clear, they are not intending on creating new games based on Olympic events. They are talking about incorporating esports into the Olympics somehow.

I love commentary and streaming services almost never have it. That’s the biggest loss.

I was thinking about trying it. I’ve always wanted to like Pokemon, but every video of it I’ve watched just makes it seem incredibly childish with the most boring combat system I’ve ever seen.

But, I like the idea of collecting Pokemon and needing to really search to complete a collection. But, I just can’t get past the apparently boring combat.

This cassette theme seems interesting, but is the combat interesting at all?

From the article:

“Our technology can be thought of as ‘indirect air capture’ because the ocean will take more carbon dioxide out of the air above it to replace the carbon dioxide that we’re removing.” Hornbostel said.

Play different games. Walkabout golf is a fantastic multiplayer game. I consider it the killer app. My family plays it regularly.

I wish they’d focus more on releasing VR board games. My family and friends are scattered around the world and VR is fantastic for playing board games with them if only they’d release them.

If the only thing you like playing is FPS games then I guess VR isn’t for you though.

Uplifting news that isn’t boring (Bob did well in school his whole life.) and doesn’t imply bad things happening (the community came together to save Jill from a life in the slave pits of Hoth) is actually a challenge.

What would be an example that was interesting with no negative connotations? Maybe news of scientific and engineering breakthroughs? Children who rise above a good but boring life?

I only play inverted x and y, but I’m thinking of learning to play both non inverted since it seems to be supported universally, so I wouldn’t need to worry about it.

That said, I never understood why every modern game wouldn’t support both being configurable.

I initially assumed “cozy” meant it would be a casual phone game which obviously would suck. But it’s a Steam and console game, so I’m excited!

If I so much as see a daily reward or a separate currency or an in game store, it gets uninstalled. Those things are guarantees that it sucks.

Only thing I care about is that they keep the split controller design. It’s the only controller I can easily use while walking on a treadmill. Holding a controller with two hands while walking is awkward. The split controller allows me to swing my arms normally.

I did a bit of searching and the initial size you mention seems to be the initial size to which extrapolation is possible given information we have and that past that point it’s unknowable?

You’re right, although if you ever get the chance to browse a real physical encyclopedia, it’s a unique experience.

Not practical, but it’s a bit like playing a record or playing a game on a real NES. It’s a unique experience.

I have a full 2007 set of Encyclopedia Brittanica in the same room as my vintage computer collection. I browse it occasionally.
