After you verify your age

True, but I bet there will be a very small amount of people who have the Machine & not the controller, considering that it’s more console than PC.

I think the bigger issue would still be supply. If they sell out of controllers from people buying them for their Deck/PC, they may not have enough for the Machines, delaying them further.

I remember when I dumped my Tandy CoCo 3… Learned BASIC from analyzing code I typed by hand from magazines. Had a C64 & an Atari SE as well, but used the CoCo the most.

Last week: AI always uses nukes

This week: Defense dept using AI

Next week: Skynet has awakened

I’m sure you can’t do it easily, but I’m sure there will be ridiculous AI vibe-coded attempts at making it work that end in a catastrophic failure/data breach/scandal.

I don’t think there will be a DDR6. I think the AI bubble is going to pop & all these data centers will become “mainframe centers” that your minimum spec’d home terminal connects to to do all the computing for you on “Our lightning fast multi-core super computer with terabytes of memory!”

Hades 2 & Mewgenics are my two most recent ‘Just the Game’ games.

I know where I live you can’t even take a phone into the courthouse; they have signs on the door and will turn you around at the metal detectors for having one. The fact that they got those glasses into the courtroom at all is a security fail at best, and feels more like a contempt of court charge.

I’ve read enough science fiction to know the beginning of a cyberpunk dystopia when I see it…

Because it makes firearms available to people without having to jump through hoops the government can track, but they can make a machine that makes flexi-dragons into a boogyman, so they throw a “protect the children” in the bill and it automatically passes.

$100 for the Swimsuit edition DLC

e machines did this back in the 90’s/00’s to predictably failed results.

Everything old is new again…

I linuxed a $50 Chromebook & I use it to do sketchy shit that I don’t want to try on my main rig. “Hey, I found a flashdrive at the park! Let’s plug it into the ChromeBurner”!

Rougelikes/lites are perfect for the deck IMO.

Simple quick sessions that you can pick up and put down whenever without having to remember too much is what I want on a portable system. I tend to have downtime in my vehicle at work, and I can put in 20-30 minutes into Hades 2 and still have a pretty good idea of what was going on when I come back to it a few hours or a few days later, without having to search for a good stopping point.

I’ve heard “if it were raining titties, I’d open my mouth and catch a dick.”

But if you’re not installing updates to patch out a zero day, the vulnerability is still there.
