There it is. “Bespoke”. Everybody’s really been using that word a lot lately. It’s the new “curated”. It’s so weird to me, but also makes sense, that a word will come up, then catch on and reach enough common usage that it just pops up everywhere, all the time for a while, then be replaced by the next “in” thing to…

I have wanted, for a very long time, this very thing. Some mixture of “I want to be Shadow the Hedgehog, in terms of mobility”, and also, “Walking across a shopping complex/the mall is such a hassle and waste of time if I know what I want/where I’m going”.

I’ve recently rediscovered a love for physical, due to sharing digital games in a multi-Nintendo Switch household being, effectively, impossible.

Time for Linux Phone to rise up.

Cloud gaming/computing will be the end of all this nonsense. When the infrastructure is wide spread, and insanely low latency, then we’ll all have access to 12K, 990Hz, VR/AR-ready, ray traced, unlimited-sized, massive games, streamed to our faces.

Is “racking up” really the term we would use for that? I’d say it’s more “jacking up”, or just “increasing”/”raising”. Racking up means something is being collected and counted/inventoried (“racking up points”, “racking up charges against you”, etc.) We’re not collecting/gathering anything, though - the number is just…

And that’s really the crux of it - VR Chat already exists, in the same way that Virtual Desktop already existed well before Facebook’s Air Link option launched), and also in the same vein, somebody else is doing it better.

Donald Trump finally makes a cameo in a Lego set!

Yeah. Had this been on PC and consoles, I’d be playing it. I tried it out the day it launched, and I enjoyed it, but I also hated the controls/I hate gaming on a smartphone. I’ve since moved to a couple of different extra-tiny smartphones and have yet to look back.

Ninety-eight percent of meetings could be emails. If we have to have a meeting, I’d rather it be in a video game than in person, I suppose.

Probably a decent salary.

Gross.

Loyalty/rewards programs are all terrible and a waste of everybody’s time.

Well, hopefully corporate hears them. I eat McDonald’s every once in a while, and I don’t need the workers being too tired to make my food correctly/safely just because of a toy promotion.

Seriously, Google dropped the ball on the software side.

The Stadia team may have been committed to the endeavor, but Google and it’s shareholders were not. There’s no way Google didn’t have the money to outbid Microsoft on the Activision-Blizzard acquisition. There’s no way Google didn’t have the money to hire on just everyone coming out of college wanting to get into game…

You hope it won’t be the future... because the current infrastructure doesn’t meet the minimum requirements?

Eventually it will be the only way.

Oh.
