Hey Honda, thanks for confirming the problems with the NSX. We sure do appreciate it!

I’m about to replace my second one of these. Wish the battery would hold out longer—or that it could be directly powered.

I think for quite a few people the product went from “I’ve got to try this!” to “I’m gonna hang out and see what happens with this.” That’s not great for VR, but it might work if Facebook is willing to fund this long term and let the product/fanbase develop over time instead of relying on hype and quick popularity.

AJA is awesome. Hands down the best source of world news and the only network with a focus on journalism.

The DCA says that as part of the settlement Whole Foods will be required to conduct in-store audits

One of the best things I ever did (as a person living in a studio apartment with a ton of electronics) was buy some tinted stickers to kill the light from LEDs on things like my modem and computer and such.

I have one of the cone-shaped ones. It doesn’t wake me up—it merely alerts my cat that it’s time to start walking on my face until I get out of bed and feed her.

Don’t. Fucking. Buy. Gamble. Boxes.

On lazy devs: I don’t think of dev laziness in terms of hours worked, as was the focus of the article quote, but rather in terms of corners cut; systems copied from other games or a lack of ideas.

Didn’t he have to sell the sock after he went broke?

The state tried to sell Copernicus, but no offers came close to the reserve. Frankly, not a lot of companies really want to pick up 3/4s of an MMO blind and try to make a successful game out of it—unless they can get a great deal.

One of the issues they had was combining the need for top-tier talent (which they had) with the requirement to be based in Rhode Island. It takes some very generous salary packages to get devs to move their families across the country, especially knowing that when the job was finished (either with launch or failure)

There’s been plenty of press about it, certainly within the gaming/MMO community, but I also recall Forbes and other pubs writing multiple articles about it.

The whole 38 Studios thing was an ill-conceived vanity project to design the “perfect” MMO, or at least his vision of it. The kind of thing every gamer says they’ll do when they’re rich, but that most people who become rich quickly realize is a horrible idea.

Copernicus was his passion project (he was always a big MMO guy). KOA:R had shared lore/assets with Copernicus and was developed both to make some money and prove that his company could actually deliver—proof that he would need to secure the funds to fully develop and launch an MMO.

Everyone knows this. Easier said than done, obviously. No need to be a jerk about it.

I don’t understand this “eat less” part. What is?
