I don't really get this article. I went into it thinking: Cool they'll have options for HDMI switchers and options for actually hooking up old consoles in a more modern way: ala retrotink: https://www.retrotink.com/
And ways to store controllers and organize things.
spoilers: none of that is covered.
They think modern is using NFC to play emulated games from your cartridge NFC scan.
oh well. Anyone else have a large older console collection that has any tips on organization and showcasing your games/consoles (and allowing them to be played - not just shown off)

Thought I should post it since you're interested in mechanical watches!
I found this through watching youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@WristwatchRevival pretty cool channel.

At the end of 2022?! The PR seems to not have been date checked.

Yes, they left in 2022. Weird to just re announce this.

Guys anyone up to speed regarding if this purchase is linked to your account and what it means if you want more Decks say a year later?

I was one of the first getting this reserved. At first I wanted it for myself, then I went into the drone cinematography business which I'm in the middle of investing in atm, and now I don't really want to waste my money on a next gen Atari Lynx. So I am thinking of buying it for a buddy of mine but I don't want to shoot myself in the foot.
Probably the same thing that happened with the Index. You may have to wait a period of time until the pre-orders are fulfilled before ordering another Steam Deck, but eventually (ignoring chip shortage) you should be able to order another.

Hah! How much do you think you should be paid for playing video games? This isn't real QA like you see with security/military HW/SW. When you can ask any schmoe on the street if he wants to test games for a few hours for minimum wage you'll have zero shortage of people for that. Hell they can get online volunteers for nothing. Essential role? This isn't a skilled trade. Looks like the QA department at Raven is done.
That's a pretty short sided view of testing in games. People should be paid their worth, and respected. No matter the role. Have you ever heard of an SDET Cutter?

Nintendo has nothing to do with Kingdom Hearts. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_Hearts
Sure it's been on some Nintendo handhelds, but Square Enix, Square, Jupiter, h.a.n.d., BitGroove Inc., Success, indieszero that have worked on the games. They have worked out some license agreement for the properties from Disney.

Sweet, valve actually did something innovative and new!

The full list of Super Nintendo games available on Switch Online are as follows:
Brawl Brothers.
Breath of Fire.
Demon's Crest.
F-Zero.
Joe and Mac 2: Lost in the Tropics.
Kirby's Dream Course.
Kirby's Dream Land 3.
Pilotwings.
...
lol j/k valve, I do appreciate this stuff though! (and it is pretty cool that only the host has to install, that is new.)

Blizzard to fans:
Do you guys not have Cell Phones?
Do you guys not have Free Speech?
Do you guys not have other games to play?
Do you guys not have brains?

I'm way less interested in Diablo after Immortal was announced. for a couple reasons: The way they treated fans, and they way they treat Diablo 3 players and fans.

I am glad I decided to not go to blizzcon this year, i'm usually super excited to go, last year kind of took the wind out of my sails for this year. the more recent stuff just made it apparent that I made the right choice for me. (I bought the virtual ticket before the most recent crap)

How can this even be considered a step back? It's along side BfA. (Battle for Azeroth: latest retail expansion)

If they shut down the latest stuff, I could see that be steps back.
One subscription for more. PCWorld c'mon.

Sometimes just being able to talk about trauma at all is a start.
I haven't been in that situation but have dealt with other trauma, and once you can talk about it, it's easier to work through and move to action.

I think the show writers did very well for trying to tie up as many loose ends as they did. While it's not my favorite and I will be reading the books when they come out. They did a good job of providing a meaningful ending to this story.

There is plenty left that was not tied up, and I'm not sure if it's because George RR Martin wanted to write spin off series for these other characters or if he intends to continue to write more about them before finishing A Song of Fire and Ice.

Some of the characters outgrew this particular story, which I think is why they weren't mentioned as much / revisited in the TV show.

That anthem with dlss article might as well be a paid shill article. NVidia gave them a copy and a 2080ti.
The charts they show are 1-2 fps difference, but they're skewed so heavily it looks like it's a huge game changer. such bullshit.
